# 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:

* <mark style="color:yellow;">**Signal > noise:**</mark> curation is earned on-chain (not back-channeled).
* <mark style="color:yellow;">**Built-in structure:**</mark> DAO + staking + treasury at genesis.
* <mark style="color:yellow;">**Aligned incentives:**</mark> emissions and bribes route to communities that organize.
* <mark style="color:yellow;">**Anti-frontrun design:**</mark> 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.<br>

> Exact values can be updated via protocol governance; projects see the active defaults at submission time.

### End-to-end flow

#### For projects / teams

1. Submit metadata (brand kit, tokenomics, allocation, curve preset, DAO params).
2. Choose path (Cabal or Open).
3. *(Cabal only)* Participate in a stealth epoch; no interim results.
4. Prepare launch: confirm treasury split, StakeOS policy, initial bribe budget (optional).
5. TGE: alpha ping + whitelist minute (if curated) → full public open.
6. Auto-bootstrap: DAO deployed; treasury funded; StakeOS pool created; BarkSwap migration configured.
7. 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.

<mark style="color:yellow;">**TL;DR**</mark>

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.
