Creator revenue · where the 3 % fee goes
per-token Creator tabEvery trade pays a flat 3 % fee, on the curve and in the graduated Uniswap v4 pool alike (LAUNCH_NUMBERS 2B, decided 2026-09-28). The creator share slides with the project's score, linear, no grace period: 30 % at score 0 → 50 % at score 100 for a project that is verified by Eden or has an attested data score, and 10 % → 50 % (unverified, no data) for everyone else — an unverified project on human scores alone is capped at score 50, i.e. 30 % of the fee. 10 % of creator fees always becomes permanent liquidity, and a creator may route 0–90 % of the rest into buying back their token (locked 5 years). Holders are pushed their share pro-rata in the pair asset — never throttled. The ROOT buyback lane buys ROOT every cycle: 50 % stays in the token's pair asset and pays the validators who scored it (never ROOT), 25 % buys ROOT that deepens ROOT's own ROOT/ETH pool as permanently-locked liquidity, 25 % buys ROOT that is burned. A launch's creator sees and claims their legs on the Creator tab of its token page.

Score 62 → creator gets 42.4 % of fees (30 % → 50 %)
Creator share rises linearly with the score to 50 % at score 100. It starts at 30 % for a project that is verified by Eden or has an attested data score, and at 10 % for an unverified project with no data yet (10 % → 50 %); without data the score is capped at 50, so such a creator tops out at 30 % until the project is verified or connects data. The part of the 50 % creator bucket a project has not earned yet goes Eden 40 % · ROOT buyback 25 % · index 25 % · holders 10 %. 10 % of creator fees always becomes permanent liquidity; the creator may send 0–90 % of the rest into buying back their token (locked 5 years).
