The short version

• BOUND is software. It never holds your funds or your keys, and every transaction is one you sign yourself.
• Tokens launched on BOUND are made by their creators, not by BOUND. Nobody checks them, and nothing here is investment advice.
• Most tokens like these lose most or all of their value. Only use money you can afford to lose completely.
• The contracts have had security reviews but no paid third-party audit. They can't be changed or paused for launched tokens, which also means mistakes can't be undone.
• Rules limit how a token moves. They don't make it safe, fair or valuable.

What BOUND is

BOUND is a set of smart contracts on Robinhood Chain and a website that helps you use them. The contracts let anyone launch a token with built-in rules, trade it on a bonding curve, and move it to a Uniswap v4 pool when the curve sells out. Everything happens on a public blockchain; the website only reads the chain and prepares transactions for your own wallet to sign.

BOUND is non-custodial. We can't move, freeze, reverse or recover anyone's tokens or ETH, and we can't change a launched token, its rules, its curve or its pool. The factory's owner can only change settings for future launches: the curve size, the treasury address, and whether new launches are open.

Risks

Market risk

Token prices can fall to zero quickly. Liquidity can be thin, especially early on a curve. Other traders, including bots, can see your transaction before it lands and trade around it. Past prices, charts or market caps on this site say nothing about the future.

Creator risk

Anyone can launch a token, with any name and picture. A token on BOUND isn't endorsed by BOUND, and its name doesn't mean it's connected to any person, company or project. Creators can hold large amounts, sell when the rules allow, or abandon a token.

Smart contract risk

The contracts may contain bugs we haven't found. They've had adversarial security reviews and extensive testing, with every finding fixed, and their source code is published and verified, but there has been no paid third-party audit. They also depend on Uniswap v4, Robinhood Chain and the wallets and apps you use, any of which can fail.

Rule risk

Rules do what the docs describe, and nothing more. Some rules deliberately restrict you: a P2P-only token can never be sold on a market, an Entangled token can't be traded until its Beacon holds a target for an hour, and caps, cooldowns, vesting and market hours can stop a trade you want to make. Read a token's rules before you buy. After graduation, traders who keep balances inside Uniswap rather than in their wallet can avoid wallet rules there (the docs explain exactly what's covered).

Chain and tooling risk

Transactions can fail, cost gas without succeeding, or be delayed. The website, the public RPC and the block explorer can be slow or down. Charts and holder lists are rebuilt from public chain data and can be incomplete or late.

Legal and tax risk

Tokens may be treated differently where you live, and the rules can change. You're responsible for knowing whether you may use BOUND, and for any taxes on your trades.

Fees

Every trade on a BOUND curve pays a 1% fee in ETH: 85% to the BOUND treasury and 15% to the token's creator. After graduation, fees earned by the locked Uniswap liquidity are split the same way. Some rules add their own fees while a token is on the curve, set by the creator within fixed limits. You also pay network gas for every transaction. Fees are taken by the contracts automatically and aren't refundable.

Your responsibilities

You must be old enough to enter a binding agreement where you live, and allowed by your local laws to use a service like this. You won't use BOUND to:

• pretend to be another person, company or project, or suggest an endorsement that doesn't exist;
• mislead buyers about a token, its creator or its rules;
• launch a token that is a security, or that you're not permitted to offer, where you are;
• launder money, evade sanctions, or break any other law;
• attack, overload or exploit the website or the contracts.

You're responsible for your wallet, your keys and every transaction you sign. Check addresses and amounts before you approve anything.

Tokens and content

Token names, tickers, pictures and descriptions come from their creators. Creators keep the rights to what they upload, and confirm they're allowed to use it. We don't review launches before they happen. We can't change or remove a token from the chain, but we may stop showing any token or its content on this website, for example if it impersonates someone or breaks these terms.

No warranty

BOUND, the website and the contracts are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including that they will be secure, error-free, uninterrupted, or fit for any purpose. Nothing on this site is financial, investment, legal or tax advice.

Liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, the people who build and run BOUND aren't liable for any loss or damage from using or being unable to use BOUND, the website, the contracts or any token launched with them, including lost funds, lost profits, failed transactions, bugs, or the actions of creators, traders or other third parties.

Changes

We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version, and using BOUND after a change means you accept it. Changes to these terms never change a token that's already launched: its rules live in its own contract.
