Priest.trade enforces programmatic, contract-level protections to ensure all token launches are completely fair, transparent, and immune to common launchpad rug pulls.

1. Zero Creator Supply Allocation

On many launchpads, creators allocate themselves 10%–20% of the token supply for “free” before the public can buy, only to dump their tokens onto early community buyers. On Priest.trade:
  • When createTokenAndMarket() is called, 100% of the 1,000,000,000 token supply is minted directly into the PerpesEngine contract.
  • The creator receives zero tokens at launch.
  • If the creator wishes to hold the token, they must buy it on the open market like every other participant.

2. No Minting or Freeze Authority

The underlying ERC-20 contract (PerpesToken.sol) is intentionally minimal and immutable:
  • There is no ongoing mint function. Total supply is capped permanently at deployment.
  • There is no blacklist, freeze, or pause mechanism on the token contract.
  • The creator has zero special privileges or administrative control over the token contract once deployed.

3. Algorithmic Wash-Trading Detection

During early token trading:
  • Artificial wash trading is monitored by rewards filters, and the only penalty on wash trading is zero reward points: flagged trades earn 0 points and are stripped from epoch point calculations. The underlying trading, fees, and market execution remain completely unaffected.

4. CREATE2 Anti-Squatting

Token contracts are deployed via CREATE2 using a salt bound to the creator’s wallet address (msg.sender):
  • Malicious actors cannot front-run a creator’s transaction in the mempool to steal their desired token contract address.
  • Addresses are predictable and verifiable prior to deployment.
