How Sent works

Anyone launches a token on Volta, Ascend or Montra through Sent and names a creator account on X, Twitch or fomo. The token's creator fees go to that account's vault, and 80% of them is sent to the creator's wallet automatically. Nobody has to sign up to be named, and nobody claims or signs anything to be paid.

1. Overview

A launch names a creator: an X account, a Twitch channel or a fomo trader. Every creator account has its own vault, whose address is known before the vault exists, so a token can name someone who has never heard of Sent. The launchpad pays the token's creator fees to that address.

When fees reach the vault, 80% is credited to the creator and 20% goes to the Sent treasury. The creator signs in with the named account once and pastes the wallet that should receive the fees; from then on Sent sends their share there every few minutes. fomo traders are paid to the wallet they trade with, with no sign-in at all.

1
Launch and name a creator

On the launch page, pick a launchpad, the token and a creator account. Sent fills in the account's vault as the creator-fee recipient.

2
Fees build up

Every trade pays a fee. Each launchpad pays the creator side to the vault in its own way and on its own schedule.

3
Fees are pulled and split

Sent pulls the creator fees into the vault on a schedule. Each pull credits 80% to the creator and sends 20% to the treasury.

4
The creator gets paid

They sign in once on the Get paid page and set a payout wallet. Every few minutes, their share is sent there. fomo traders are paid without signing in.

2. Platforms

A creator is an account on a platform. The creator proves the account is theirs by signing in with it, and gives the address that should receive the fees. Today that is X or Twitch; fomo traders are paid without signing in.

X

Named by handle. The vault is derived from the account's numeric id, so a rename changes nothing. The creator signs in with X once to set the wallet that gets paid.

Twitch

Named by channel name or a twitch.tv link. The vault is derived from the numeric channel id, so renaming the channel changes nothing.

fomo

Named by fomo handle. Sent sends the share to the wallet they trade with. There is nothing to sign in to.

Farcaster and TikTok are announced, not built: a token cannot name them yet.

3. Launchpads

Sent launches through three launchpads. They all trade in Uniswap v4 pools paired with HYPE, USDC or KNTQ, and they all let a launch name who receives the creator fees. They differ in how much of the fee reaches the creator and when. Volta is the default.

  • Volta. Swap fee 1–5%. Volta keeps 30%; Sent launches give the other 70% to the creator's vault. Pays in the pair asset, in batches.
  • Ascend. Fee 1–10%. Holds most of the creator fees until the token proves itself at a $40k market cap, and forfeits them if it does not.
  • Montra. Fee tiers of 1, 2, 3, 5 or 10%. Pays the creator side live, from the first trade.

4. Volta

On Volta the creator of a launch is whoever holds its creator NFT. Sent names the creator's vault as the launch's creator, so the NFT is minted to the vault, and the vault receives the creator side of the fees.

  • Swap fee: 1% to 5%, set at launch.
  • Volta's share: 30% of every fee.
  • The other 70% goes to the creator's vault on a launch made on Sent.
  • Paid in the pair asset, in batches, once a pool's fees pass Volta's payout threshold.

Example: with a 2% swap fee and a launcher split of 100% to the creator, $1,000 of trading pays $20 in fees. Volta keeps $6 and $14 reaches the vault: the creator is credited $11.20 and the Sent treasury $2.80.

Launches and trades on Volta earn points toward the VOLTA airdrop, until Nov 20.

5. Ascend

On Ascend every pool has its own creator escrow, and the launch names who the escrow pays. Sent names the creator's vault. Ascend holds most of the creator fees back until the token proves itself.

  • Fee 1% to 10%, taken in the pair asset (HYPE, USDC or KNTQ).
  • Before $40k, only about 10% of creator fees is paid as it is earned. The rest is held.
  • Once the moving-average market cap holds above $40k for an hour, held fees are released.
  • If the token does not reach $40k within 14 days, the held fees are forfeited.
  • If it sits below a $5k market cap with under $1k of daily volume for 7 days, the held fees are forfeited.

Sent launches with community takeovers off. Forfeited fees never reach the vault.

6. Montra

On Montra a launch names its fee recipients. Sent names the creator's vault as the only recipient, with the whole creator share. The fee is a tier of 1, 2, 3, 5 or 10%. The creator side accrues from the first trade, with no threshold. A pull collects it into the vault.

7. The creator's vault

Every creator account has one vault, shared by every token that names it, on every launchpad. Its address is computed from the account's platform and stable id, so renaming the account changes nothing, and the address is known before the vault is deployed. That is what lets a token name a creator who has never visited Sent.

8. Naming the creator

The launch page adds a line to the token description:

Fees to @yourhandle via Sent
Fees to twitch:channel via Sent
Fees to fomo:handle via Sent

The creator does not need to agree, know in advance, or hold a wallet.

9. The 80/20 split

Every pull into a vault divides the same way: 80% to the creator, 20% to the Sent treasury in the same transaction. The split applies to what reaches the vault, after the launchpad's own cut. Sent's owner key can change the split for later pulls, not for what is already credited.

10. How fees reach the vault

Creator fees collect at the launchpad until somebody pulls them. A pull is open to anyone and can only move fees into the vault. Sent runs pulls on a schedule for every vault with something worth moving. Each pull is split on the spot. A pull that fails changes nothing.

If a token has named your account, the fees are already building up in your name. You do one thing, once: sign in with the account on the Get paid page, paste an EVM address you control on Elysium, and wait. Every few minutes Sent sends your share once an asset's share is worth at least $5. You are paid in USDC. Do not use an exchange deposit address.

A wallet can be set once from the page. Until it is set, the share waits in the vault. Money you receive may be taxable to you.

12. fomo: no sign-in at all

fomo traders keep their wallet inside the fomo app, so Sent uses the wallet they trade with as their payout wallet. Before anything is sent, the wallet is checked against the trader's fomo account. If the check fails, the account sits on hold and the fees stay in the vault. A fomo trader can opt out.

13. Revenue and $SENT

Sent earns its 20% of every pull. That cut goes to Sent's buyback contract, which also collects the creator fees of $SENT. Each buyback sends 50% to the treasury in USDC and uses the other 50% to buy $SENT and burn it. Buybacks follow revenue and can be smaller, paused or changed. They are not a promise about price.

14. Custody and upgrades

Sent holds custody of vault balances until they are sent. The owner key can withdraw a balance, act as the vault, upgrade the code, re-point a payout wallet, and change settings. A balance in a vault is held by Sent on the creator's behalf until it is sent to the payout wallet. The contracts have unit and fork tests and no third-party audit yet.

15. Can a launch's fees be moved?

Not by the launcher and not by the creator. Once a launch names a vault, the vault holds the creator rights. Only Sent's owner key can move them.

16. Opting out

Nobody can stop a token from naming an account, but you can ask Sent to leave yours out. Open the opt-out page, sign in with the account, and send the request, or write to @SentElysium. Within 7 days the account comes off the site and payouts stop from the next cycle. Anything already credited stays yours.

17. If a token is not showing up

  • Too recent. The indexer reads new launches every minute.
  • Wrong recipient. Only launches that name a vault are listed.
  • Unknown account. Search for the account, then the launch is picked up on the next pass.
  • Ascend takeovers on. Those launches are not tracked.
  • Creator rights were moved away from the vault.

18. Contracts

Everything runs on Elysium, Kinetiq's chain for Hyperliquid (chain id 99901, gas paid in HYPE).
