Network specifications
Everything a terminal, aggregator, or wallet needs to know to work with Merry Men
launches. The structural advantage that makes integration cheap: there is no
bonding curve. Every launch is a canonical Uniswap v4 pool, so any consumer
that already supports the chain and DEX can route swaps with zero custom
contract work. (Coins from earlier generations trade on V3 pools; the API’s
dex field says which is which. See Earlier generations.)
Chain facts
Section titled “Chain facts”| Mainnet | Testnet | |
|---|---|---|
| Chain id | 4663 | 46630 |
| Network | Robinhood Chain (Arbitrum Orbit L2) | Robinhood Chain testnet |
| Native gas | ETH | ETH |
| Quote asset | Native ETH | Same |
| DEX | Uniswap v4, hook-priced | Same |
| Block time | ~100ms (10 blocks/s) | ~100ms |
| Explorer | https://robinhoodchain.blockscout.com |
https://explorer.testnet.chain.robinhood.com |
The launchpad also runs on Stable (chain id 988, USDT0-quoted) and Arc (chain id 5042, USDC-quoted): same mechanism, different quote asset and decimals. Do not assume 18-decimal quotes off Robinhood Chain.
Launch token shape
Section titled “Launch token shape”Every launch token is identical in shape, so consumers can hardcode assumptions:
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Standard | ERC-20 |
| Decimals | 18 (always) |
| Supply | Fixed at launch, never changes |
| Owner / mint / pause / tax | None, the token is inert |
| Pool | One v4 TOKEN/ETH pool per launch, keyed by its PoolId |
| Liquidity | Single-sided at launch, permanently locked |
Because the token is inert and always 18 decimals, consumers can rely on
decimals = 18 and the standard ERC-20 name / symbol. Note that the
hook charges a decaying sell fee inside the swap
(see Fees); the token itself imposes nothing, and
plain transfers are untaxed. Newly launched coins may also be gate-restricted
for their first minutes (launch gates):
a swap against a frozen pool reverts until the round settles or the on-chain
ceiling passes.
Auto-indexing (already done)
Section titled “Auto-indexing (already done)”Terminals rarely integrate a launchpad directly; they integrate a chain, then read standard on-chain DEX events plus a few trusted aggregators. That layer already exists for Robinhood Chain:
- GeckoTerminal tracks the network and lists
uniswap-v3-robinhoodas a DEX. - DexScreener covers the chain too.
Because every Merry Men launch is a canonical Uniswap pool, our pools are
auto-indexed the moment they trade, no submission, no integration. Both
aggregators key v4 pools by their 32-byte PoolId. Verify a live launch at
geckoterminal.com/robinhood/pools
and dexscreener.com/robinhood.
The only remaining per-token work is cosmetic: logos and socials on aggregator listings, which come from a CoinGecko listing (feeds GeckoTerminal) or DexScreener’s “Enhanced Token Info,” not from arbitrary token lists.
