What it is
Pons is a token launchpad on Robinhood Chain, an Arbitrum Orbit L2 that launched on 1 July 2026. According to the Pons launchpad page, a creator launches a token in two steps and it trades on a bonding curve. A Telegram digest (reposted by AGGREGATOR) describes the model as a copy of pump.fun: fixed supply, a bonding curve, then migration to a Uniswap v4 pool and a fee of about 1% per trade. Most of the fee goes to the token creator, and a large part of the protocol share goes to PONS buybacks and burns. The same digest, dated 5 October, says Pons had "deflated", with volumes returning to pump.fun. The project's X account claims more than $6B of all-time Uniswap v4 hook volume. It also announced the Coinbase listing on 7 October.
Token
The PONS contract has 18 decimals and a fixed supply of 1,000,000,000 PONS.
