LaunchOS
LaunchOS is Laika’s issuance rail — a curated and permissionless launch system that ships tokens with structure from day one.
Every launch can auto-bootstrap a DAO, a treasury, and staking (StakeOS), so projects graduate from meme → market without duct-taping infra.
What LaunchOS solves
Most launchpads optimize for speed and virality; they leave teams with no treasury, no DAO, no incentive design. LaunchOS flips the script:
Signal > noise: curation is earned on-chain (not back-channeled).
Built-in structure: DAO + staking + treasury at genesis.
Aligned incentives: emissions and bribes route to communities that organize.
Anti-frontrun design: commit–reveal voting + randomized go-live.
Two paths, one backbone
1) Cabal Launch (curated)
For projects that want meritocratic selection and insider-level earned perks.
Commit–reveal voting by veLAIKA and veTOKEN holders (no interim leaderboards).
Weighted by vePower (USD-normalized); no quadratic bias.
Randomized launch window post-vote (anti-sniping).
Alpha Window for aligned participants:
Top 3 StakeOS pools by vePower get a private alpha ping ~1h before TGE.
Supportive voters of the winner get 1-minute early access (per-address buy cap, e.g. $5k).
Auto-bootstrap: bonding-curve settlement triggers DAO + treasury seeding + StakeOS pool.
2) Open Launch (permissionless)
For creators who need to go fast without sacrificing structure.
Anyone can launch by committing a DAO allocation (e.g., 5–25% of total supply).
When bonding-curve conditions are met:
Liquidity migrates to BarkSwap (DEX).
DAO is deployed and treasury receives its predefined share of curve proceeds.
Project becomes eligible for StakeOS listing.
Both paths share the same infrastructure: bonding curves, auto-DAO, treasury routing, analytics dashboards, and hooks into StakeOS / ShillOS.
Default parameters (governance-tunable)
Treasury allocation (project-set, enforced at deploy): 5–25% of total supply.
DAO seeding (curated): a portion of supply (e.g., up to 15%) seeded at/after TGE.
Whitelist window (curated): 1 minute; $5k per address cap (anti-whale burst).
Reveal & go-live: commit–reveal end → randomized TGE within 7-day window.
Bonding curve: shape/params chosen at submission from vetted presets.
Anti-bot: rate-limiting, proof-of-humanity options, allowlist for alpha window.
Exact values can be updated via protocol governance; projects see the active defaults at submission time.
End-to-end flow
For projects / teams
Submit metadata (brand kit, tokenomics, allocation, curve preset, DAO params).
Choose path (Cabal or Open).
(Cabal only) Participate in a stealth epoch; no interim results.
Prepare launch: confirm treasury split, StakeOS policy, initial bribe budget (optional).
TGE: alpha ping + whitelist minute (if curated) → full public open.
Auto-bootstrap: DAO deployed; treasury funded; StakeOS pool created; BarkSwap migration configured.
Post-launch: publish first proposals (budgets, staking incentives), optionally trigger ShillOS campaigns.
For voters / curators (veLAIKA + veTOKEN)
Review submissions in-app; vote commit–reveal during the weekly epoch.
Support winners to earn alpha access and future bribes/yield via StakeOS.
For early participants
Alpha recipients (top pools + supportive voters) get the 1-minute window.
Everyone else enters at the public open; no hidden backdoor deals.
Anti-frontrun & fairness
Commit–reveal: hides interim tallies, prevents last-minute dogpiles.
Randomized TGE window: reduces bot timing advantage.
Per-wallet caps in alpha minute: curbs single-wallet dominance.
Transparent rules on-chain: same playbook for every project.
Integrations on day one (bonded tokens)
StakeOS
Single-asset ve(3,3) pool created with the token’s policy (min/max lock, reward split).
Projects can bribe veLAIKA voters to route emissions to their pool.
GovernOS
DAO treasury and governance contracts deployed; default quorum/timelocks applied.
Proposal templates (budgets, emissions, buyback & burn, creator campaigns).
ShillOS
Campaign brief templates; escrow → proof-of-publication → payout flows.
Creator/KOL discovery and on-chain payment rails.
BarkSwap
Post-curve liquidity migration; LP policy presets (fees, incentives).
Benefits at a glance
Curation without gatekeeping — anyone can launch; earned insiders get alpha.
Structure by default — DAO/treasury/staking live at genesis.
Merit-based access — governance and engagement convert into real perks.
Ongoing alignment — emissions and bribes reward communities that organize.
Notes & disclaimers
LaunchOS is non-custodial. Projects remain responsible for their disclosures and legal compliance.
Whitelist minute and caps apply only to curated launches; public access follows immediately after.
Bribes are non-refundable once a voting epoch starts; outcomes and routing are on-chain.
Parameters shown at submission are the source of truth; changes require governance approval.
TL;DR
LaunchOS turns token issuance into a programmable, fair and structured process. Projects arrive as economies, not tickers. Communities earn insider-level perks on-chain. And from day one, everything connects to the rest of the Super App flywheel.
