Fees & Flywheel
Fee modes, platform burn, and the $FURNACE flywheel.
Platform fee (all trades)
Every buy and sell on any Furnace curve pays a 0.50% protocol fee. 0.40% routes to the treasury for platform revenue and 0.10% routes to the Buyback Vault to market-buy and burn $FURNACE.
Custom fee distribution
Launchers pick how the remaining curve fees are allocated:
| Mode | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Staking | Fees fund a staking pool; lockers earn trading fees |
| Creator | Fees accrue to the token creator |
| Buyback & Burn | Fees buy back and burn the launched token |
| Add Liquidity | Fees deepen liquidity at graduation |
| None | No custom split — platform fee only |
Creator mode routes fees to a wallet (or on-chain splitter) set at launch. Social handles are verified with a wallet signature before they can receive on-chain payouts.
Share rewards with your people (X, GitHub, or wallet)
In Creator mode you can split your share of trading fees (the 1.00% creator pool) across multiple people — by their X / Twitter handle, GitHub handle, or a raw wallet address. Great for paying a co-founder, a designer, a meme artist, or a whole team automatically, on-chain, forever.
How a handle gets linked to a wallet
A social handle can't receive ETH by itself — it needs a wallet behind it. Furnace links them with a signature:
- The creator adds a recipient (e.g.
@artist) and assigns a share in bps (1000 bps = 10%). - The recipient connects their own wallet and clicks Verify. Their wallet signs a short message: "Furnace fee split verification — Provider / Handle / Wallet".
- Furnace checks the signature and links that handle to that wallet. A green Verified badge appears and the wallet becomes the on-chain payout address for that share.
The signature proves the person controls the wallet they want paid to. It does not yet perform X/GitHub OAuth, so treat the handle as a public label and the linked wallet as the source of truth — always confirm the address with the recipient before launch. (OAuth-based handle ownership is on the roadmap.)
What happens on-chain
If you add one or more verified recipients, Furnace deploys a small FeeSplittercontract at launch and points the token's creator fees at it. Each trade's creator-fee slice is allocated to recipients by their bps; whatever isn't assigned stays with you (the creator).
How recipients claim their rewards
- Go to the token page and connect the same wallet you verified.
- If you have rewards waiting, a "Your reward share" card shows your balance in ETH.
- Click Claim my rewards and confirm — the ETH is sent straight to your wallet.
Rewards accrue as people trade. There's no deadline — claim whenever you like. The token creator (or anyone) can trigger the curve to push accrued fees into the splitter; your balance updates automatically.
Curve vs post-grad fees
- Bonding curve fee — applies while trading on the curve (fixed at 1.50%)
- Post-graduation fee — applies after Uniswap migration (up to 1.35%)
The flywheel
More launches → more volume → more $FURNACE bought and burned → scarcer $FURNACE supply over time.
