DOCS & FEES
Vetted watches every Pons launch on Robinhood Chain and checks it the moment it appears: who the dev is, what they bought and sold, who sniped the first seconds, who was whitelisted, and how the holders are spread. Everything is read straight from the chain. No sign-up, nothing to install.
HOW THE SCORE WORKS
Every coin starts at 50. Each rule below adds or takes points, and the result is clamped to 0–100. The score updates live as the dev trades, holders arrive and the curve fills.
All rules
What some flags mean
- Whitelist. The dev let some wallets skip the 5-second snipe tax. Those wallets can buy cheap at launch and sell into you.
- Holders up, curve flat. Many wallets hold the coin but almost no ETH went into the curve. Usually fake holders.
- Copy of $TICKER. An earlier coin by a different wallet already used this name or ticker.
- Dev sold. Compares what the dev bought at launch with what their wallet holds now.
FEES
Looking is always free: the feed, scores, coin pages, watchlist and alerts cost nothing. Vetted only charges when you buy through the site, and the fee is shown in the quote before you sign.
| What | Fee | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Buying through Vetted | 0.5% | Of the ETH you spend. Taken by the Vetted router contract in the same transaction. If part of your ETH is refunded by the curve, the fee is only on what was actually spent. |
| Selling through Vetted | 0% | Sells go straight to the Pons curve. Vetted takes nothing. |
| Feed, scores, alerts | 0% | Free, no account. |
Not our fees
These are charged by Pons, the coin’s creator or the network. Vetted does not receive them, and we show them in the coin view.
| Pons curve fee | set by Pons | Charged by the bonding curve on every buy and sell. |
| Creator tax | set per coin | Chosen by each coin’s creator. Shown under “Market” in the coin view. Over 5% lowers the score. |
| Snipe tax | 99% → 0% | Only in the first 5 seconds after launch, falling to zero. The quote warns you while it is active. |
| Network gas | tiny | Paid to Robinhood Chain for each transaction. |
Where the Vetted fee goes
This is the planned split once $VETTED is live.
The router contract
Buys with a fee go through one small contract. It checks the coin is a real Pons launch, sends your ETH minus the fee to the Pons curve, sends the tokens straight to your wallet, and refunds anything the curve did not use. The fee is fixed in the code and the contract has no owner who could change it.
TRADING ON VETTED
- You connect your own wallet (MetaMask, Rabby and others). Vetted never holds your funds or keys, and you sign every trade yourself.
- Every quote shows how many tokens you get, the price impact, the snipe tax and your max slippage. You can change slippage from 0.5% to 20%.
- Selling a coin for the first time takes two signatures: one to allow the curve to take that amount of tokens, then the sale itself. We only ask to approve the exact amount you sell.
- Graduated coins and coins paired with something other than ETH trade on Pons. We link you there.
WHERE THE DATA COMES FROM
Vetted reads Robinhood Chain directly: the Pons factory for new launches, each coin’s bonding curve for buys, sells and reserves, and token transfers for holders. Nothing is self-reported by the dev. The feed shows the last 2 hours; paste any older Pons token into “Check token” and we will pull its full history.
RISKS
A good score means fewer red flags, not a safe investment. Scores come from public on-chain data and can change in seconds. Memecoins can go to zero. Nothing on Vetted is financial advice. Vetted is not affiliated with Pons or Robinhood.
