How it works · from repo to coin
From repo to coin
From repo to coin
in one approval.
Every coin on Code Pad is launched from a real GitHub repo. Here's exactly what happens, and where the fees go.
- Paste a GitHub repo. Code Pad checks it live: public, not a fork, real commit history over several days, real code, not a copy of another repo, and no coin from it yet. One coin per repo.
- Launch it on Code Pad. You pick a name and ticker, add an optional dev buy, and approve one wallet popup. Code Pad never holds your money: the coin is created on chain by the pump.fun protocol, with its bonding curve and fees.
- The developer gets the creator fees. In the same approval, 100% of the coin's creator fees are routed to the repo owner's GitHub account (or the top contributor when an organisation owns the repo). This is locked at launch. Only that GitHub user can claim the fees, by signing in to pump.fun with GitHub.
- Trade until it graduates. Buy and sell on the curve right here. When the curve sells out, the coin graduates to a liquidity pool.
Limits
- This is a test build. Coins and SOL here have no value.
- Coins here are real Solana tokens traded with real SOL. Memecoins are extremely risky: prices can go to zero and you can lose everything you put in. Launching costs real SOL (network fees and rent), plus any dev buy.
- Anyone can launch a coin for any public repo that passes the checks. A coin is not an endorsement by the repo's developers, and they owe holders nothing.
- Coins don't pay holders anything. Nothing here is financial advice. Checks are automated and can be wrong.
- Code Pad is not affiliated with GitHub or pump.fun.
- Is it your repo and you don't want a coin? Prove it on GitHub and the coin is hidden and the repo blocked from future launches, no sign-up needed.
- Something else wrong? Report it and we'll take it off the board.
