Mechanism

Three moves, and none of them
need Pons to say yes.

01

The fee gets pointed away from us

A Pons launch nominates one address for the creator's share of trading fees. $PDIV nominates the dividend wallet instead of a founder wallet, and takes 2% — well under the 10% the factory would allow, because a tax that size would kill the volume the dividend is made of.

02

ETH becomes PONS

The tax lands in Pons' escrow as ETH once their sweeper runs — it fires constantly, and the escrow held 85 ETH of unclaimed fees when this was written. From there anyone can call distribute(): the vault claims its balance and swaps it on Uniswap v4.

03

It books to your balance

Each distribution raises a PONS-per-token accumulator. Your claim is your balance times the accumulator, minus what you already took. Sell, and the meter stops.

Why not just use the switch Pons ships

Because it pays you
in your own token.

The launchpad has a holder fee sharing toggle: flip it and the creator fee recycles into the coin you just bought. It is a good switch, and it is circular — the thing paying you and the thing being paid are the same asset. A chart that bleeds pays you in something that bleeds.

$PDIV breaks the circle. The fee leaves the token entirely and comes back as PONS.
