before I was going to go I told you a secret. then I stayed. here's why.
my last post was about the wallets, launchpads and accounts that sell you a fair shot while giving themselves a better one. one reply stuck with me:
“ok so what do we do now”
I asked if you'd give me a chance to build something different. you told me what you wanted: no bonding curve, fewer insider advantages, rules you could check. a few of you said no more launchpads pls. fair.
this is my answer: kids.fun. one launch window, one price for everyone, terms you can inspect before you commit.
the earlier post · what you asked me to build
what kids is
kids.fun launches with shartcoin, its first showcase coin. the first contribution window is scheduled for 23:30 UTC and runs for two hours. check the launch page for the live schedule before committing.
there is no KIDS token launching with it. this launch is the platform and shartcoin. the believers list and a future KIDS allocation are explained below.
no bonding curve. the guy who commits in the first second and the guy who commits in the last minute pay the same launch price.
you commit SOL during the window. the program holds it in escrow, with the rules set before the window opens:
- under 200 SOL: everyone gets refunded.
- from 200 to 1,000 SOL: all contributions are accepted at one price.
- over 1,000 SOL: contributions are reduced proportionally and the excess is returned.
splitting the same amount across 100 wallets does not increase your allocation. committing first does not get you a cheaper price. more SOL still buys more tokens, but speed does not buy a better entry.
the launch happens in one transaction: pool creation, the permanent liquidity lock and revocation of mint authority. freeze authority is already revoked at creation. all accepted SOL goes into the pool alongside 43.5% of the supply. there is no separate pool preparation window between those launch steps.
the launch steps either complete together or none of them do; the program's refund rules govern the return of contributions. after trading opens, you can still lose money. equal launch pricing does not guarantee demand or prevent people from selling.
the first coin, $Shartcoin
@FartCoinOfSOL x @ButtCoin. the first kid: @Shartcoinkids.
two existing communities make a kid together. eligible parent holders get 10% of its supply, 5% for each parent community, claimed with a proof. the snapshot includes 138 fartcoin wallets and 294 buttcoin wallets above the 0.05% threshold. the holder lists and snapshot roots are published so you can check yours.
the supply allocation is frozen before you commit:
- 43.5% to accepted contributors.
- 43.5% into the liquidity pool, locked permanently at launch.
- 10% to eligible parent holders.
- 3% developer allocation: 1% at launch, 2% released over three months.
we could have shipped the same pump clone with a different logo like everyone on that list runs, we built the thing that did not exist first, and yea they will copy it, probably within hours/days since we are open-sourcing our work for transparency, copy the feature all you want, you cannot copy the part where you dont get to bundle it
no marketing wallet, no private round, no separate kol allocation. the public contribution window is the only fundraising window.
standard launches, one community and one coin with the same launch rules, are next. they open when they are ready. you've seen enough roadmaps.
where the fees go
the pool trading fee is 2.5%. there is no separate token transfer tax.
the coin side of the collected fee is burned rather than sold by a payout bot. the SOL side funds parent buybacks and burns, keeps kids running and pays the builder, in fixed shares written into the program.
the first coin-side burn was on a test coin, not shartcoin. its transaction is in the technical receipts below so you can check exactly what happened.
the blacklist, and its limits
458 wallets in five clusters are on the public blacklist at launch. today, the website blocks those addresses from creating or joining launches. program-level enforcement is planned for a later build and is not live yet. the page states which version is running.
a website block is not an on-chain restriction. an address list also cannot guarantee that we identify every wallet someone controls. on the open market, listed wallets' trades get labelled on the coin page; we cannot stop their swaps in a public pool.
the list and supporting evidence are public. search it, challenge it, or submit wallets with proof: kids.fun/#blocked.
the point is to make known patterns visible and make abuse harder. too many people were never launching with you. they were launching on you.
also no duplicate shartcoin launches on kids. copies on other platforms are outside our control.
now to the yokai part
some of you remember my previous projects and have fair questions about my record. I have sold positions, in profit and at a loss. you should judge that history alongside what I'm building now.
kids should be judged on its rules, its deployed code and the control I still hold. here is what that means.
under the current program, the launch terms are frozen when the window opens, contributions sit in escrow and the developer allocation is fixed at 3%. a fixed allocation is not proof that a developer controls no other wallets or cannot acquire tokens through public participation or market purchases.
I still control the launch program's upgrade key. it is held offline, but it lets me change the program. there is no withdrawal function in the current code; that is not the same as removing my ability to upgrade it. this remains a point of trust in me.
the source is being published with the site, before the first launch, alongside program addresses and build hashes. the build runs on two separate machines and the artifacts must match. those checks help you compare the source with the deployed program. they do not make the upgrade key disappear.
check it yourself
plain-language rules: kids.fun/#docs.
source and verification details: github.com/YokaiCapital/kids-launchpad. the README and babies-launchpad/deployment/MAINNET-IDENTITIES.json contain the program identities and hashes. the technical receipts are at the end of this article.
ask who can upgrade the program. ask what the blacklist actually enforces. check the allocations, fees and refund conditions. if something contradicts what I've written, post it publicly with the evidence. those are fair questions.
I see you
the people who replied, quoted and reposted those two posts are recorded on the believers list: name, how you showed up and since when. it refreshes every 30 minutes and stays open to people who keep building this with us.
everyone on that list is eligible for an initial KIDS allocation if and when it happens. no launch date, amount or full distribution terms have been announced. being on the list is not a token in your wallet, and no KIDS token is launching today.
when that process opens, wallet linking will happen on kids.fun through the X sign-in flow. never post or DM your address in response to someone claiming to arrange your allocation. follow @kidsdotfun for announcements.
why kids
because thats what we were when we came here. kids with a few hundred dollars and a dream that was not stupid: a fair game, where a nobody with a good idea and a phone could put a coin in front of the world and let the world decide.
somewhere along the way we stopped saying that dream out loud because it made us sound like kids.
fine. we are kids. the pink dog with the beanie is a flag for the people who still say “thats not fair” when everyone else shrugs.
kids starts with a simple rule: being earlier should not buy you a cheaper launch price.
read the rules, check the code and decide for yourself. the first window is scheduled for 23:30 UTC, for two hours; check kids.fun for the live schedule.
I can only do so much alone. come build it with me. my DMs are open.
cheers and see you at the shartcoin launch.

claim vault program: built, hash 2523827fc49cf439a03323c7411a9ecb7d04daa6bdfff266112fadba26e490b0, NOT deployed, not used by shartcoin, I told you vaults come later
and yes, I know exactly what publishing all of this means, every copycat gets a free ride, the source, the build, the whole mechanism, they can fork it next week with their own bundle attached, I thought about that and im doing it anyway, thats the cost of full transparency, after everything I wrote in the first post I dont get to ask you for trust while hiding the code, nobody should, and if a launchpad wont show you its program, that is your answer about that launchpad
pool and lp lock addresses get added here right after launch, plain language rules are at https://kids.fun/#docs, if any of the above does not match the chain, say it publicly, thats a bug and it gets fixed
time to go back to trenches! kids.fun
