Crowning

A new market shares its tickers with any copy. When its pool reaches about $12K TVL, the market is crowned. From then on, its tickers are permanent.

The tickers are shared. Copies split the money.

The tickers are permanent. No copies.

The threshold is set in the pool’s own asset. In dollars it moves with that asset’s price, so a crown can come above or below $12K.

A crown ends the copy war

On a launchpad, a hot coin gets copied dozens of times. The money splits, and nobody knows which copy is real.

On R8 the market that draws the crowd wins the crown. After that, no new market can launch with its two tickers. One name, one pool, one price.

What the crown gives you

  • Traders get one price

    No guessing which copy is real. The crowned market is the one the crowd already picked.
  • Creators keep the name

    Nobody can launch your tickers again, and every trade under that name pays you.
  • Easy to find

    Crowned markets wear a CROWNED tag on the board. The Crowned filter shows only them.

The market that wins the crown keeps the name for good.
