The future of Honeypot 2.0 transcends chain and geographical boundaries.
Our Story: A Twisted but Steadfast Path of Innovation
The path of innovation is not a smooth one.
Our story began 2.5 years ago, with the initial grand vision of building a modular, DAO-upgradable decentralized exchange (DEX) on Berachain.
However, the market taught us the most profound lesson: true innovation must bow to reality, rather than cling to idealism. We realized that the underlying infrastructure supporting this grand architecture would take another 2-3 years to mature. Therefore, we made a difficult but correct decision based on foresight: to pause the initial architecture.
But this was not a failure. The deep research on underlying technology during that period laid a solid foundation for some more asymmetrically advantageous innovations. We shifted our research focus to another core pain point in the DeFi space: combating sandwich attacks and MEV.
It was this innovation that earned us rewards at the ETH Shanghai Hackathon in mid-2023.
This twisted path has clarified our core principles:
Bring truly useful DeFi innovations to the community.
Create tools, not toys—providing simple yet powerful products that serve real financial scenarios.
What we are building is not just another DEX clone, but a testing ground for grand theories: as long as you can thoroughly solve the issues of composability and liquidity, anything is possible.
The Common Pitfall of Current Meme Issuance Models: The "Death Trap" of Bonding Curves
The explosion of meme coins has not only brought about a frenzy but has also completely exposed the fatal flaws of the current universal meme issuance model. Simply put, almost all meme coin issuances now rely on the same toxic model—the bonding curve.
Take platforms like pump.fun as an example; they have made "issuing coins" a matter of no threshold. But beneath this surface, a tool that should democratize memes has ultimately devolved into a "cash machine" for scientists and insiders.
The problems brought by this model are systemic:
This model was designed to be extractive. It rewards speed rather than belief, internal relationships rather than community participation, and "quick in and out" rather than cultural accumulation.
This is not called an issuance model; this is a (specifically for harvesting profits) "dog coin manufacturing machine."
⚡ The Possibilities Revealed by Advanced DEX vs. The Harsh Reality of Current Models
We see an astonishing possibility: providing liquidity (LPing) for meme coins on advanced concentrated liquidity DEXs has become a lucrative business. The DeFi lead at Berachain once shared a case: providing liquidity for a high-volume meme coin within a precise narrow range generated over 32,000% APR just from transaction fees.
However, the reality is harsh. The life trajectory of the vast majority of meme coins is locked in a backward combination: issued through bonding curves and then traded on traditional DEXs like Uniswap V2.
This model almost guarantees their failure. It not only fails to allow LPs to share in high transaction fee profits, but its decentralized, unmanaged liquidity also causes most meme coins to exhaust their energy within the first few days of issuance, unable to grow into true cultural assets.
This reveals a core truth: volatility should be income, not risk.
Pot2Pump is based on this core logic; it does not oppose the frenzy of memes but guides it into a healthy structure where the interests of all participants align and can continuously generate profits. Its mission is to break the shackles of "bonding curves + V2," allowing every potential meme to enjoy the growth dividends brought by concentrated liquidity.
Pot2Pump: A Fair and Scalable Meme Economic Engine Built for the Next Billion Users
To open a whole new future for everyone, we created Pot2Pump—a meme launch model aimed at completely overturning the old system. Now, its vision is further expanding, aiming to become a truly universal, modular all-in-one meme issuance engine.
The revolutionary aspect of Pot2Pump lies in its direct conversion of early participants into native LPs. The moment the token is issued, the liquidity pool is established. Liquidity is no longer a "remedial measure" after the hype but an inherent gene.
As we expand into the new Layer 1 ecosystem, the future of Pot2Pump will become more modular, granting token creators and communities the greatest choice. Our modular strategy will provide two core options:
Support for Leading Native DEXs: We will deeply integrate with the most core and community-recognized native DEXs on new public chains.
Support for Top Universal DEXs: We will also integrate with globally top platforms like Uniswap that have been deployed on new public chains.
This flexible integration approach can achieve many powerful functions. For example, on Uniswap V4, we can directly execute issuance through its native "hook" system, efficiently and seamlessly.
Expanding the Landscape: We Are Building a Complete Ecosystem
No matter how revolutionary Pot2Pump is, it is just one piece of our grand vision. The goal of Honeypot 2.0 is to become a one-stop, all-encompassing liquidity hub.
2. Cheese Benance: Ecosystem Catalyst The biggest pain point for new public chains is "cold start." Our solution is Cheese Benance, a significant evolution of the "only rise, not fall" token concept. It is a flexible factory that can create new types of tokens supported by any asset (native public chain tokens or ERC20), but its true power lies in its incentive loop: the vast majority of protocol fees will be returned to the most active borrowers, directly rewarding participation and thus kickstarting a vibrant DeFi ecosystem.
3. Drip Drive: A Liquidity Engine that Powers "Trading" Forget about those superficial static APYs. Our most forward-looking innovation lies in redefining the essence of "yield." Drip Drive is our groundbreaking liquidity engine that rewards on-chain activity itself. We firmly believe that true yield (True APY) comes from the efficiency of capital turnover and actual use, rather than the size of locked amounts.
True APY ≈ Total Locked Value (TVL) / On-chain Economic Activity (transaction fees, interest, etc.)
In a high-volume trading environment, the power of this engine will be amplified infinitely.Other Core Weapons:
AI Agent Launchpad Everyone can generate professional-level meme images with one click. We also have built-in AI prompt enhancers that can help you turn a vague idea into a stunning concept.
The Meme Terminal You can think of it as the "Bloomberg Terminal" of the meme coin space. Born for Degens, built by Degens. It offers hardcore features like GMGN-style real-time token analysis, fund flow tracking, sniper dashboards, etc. If you are the type of person who "lives online," this tool is tailor-made for you.
The Cross-Chain Journey Begins with Monad
We have been pondering where the complete toolset of Honeypot 2.0 is best suited to take root and flourish. Our answer is Monad.
Why Monad? Because it is fast, very fast. Monad boasts an astonishing processing capacity of over 10,000 TPS, meaning massive activities can occur simultaneously on-chain.
This ultra-high "network speed" is a perfect match for our products like Drip Drive that reward "real activity." On Monad, users will genuinely feel for the first time that every transaction and every interaction they make is creating tangible benefits for themselves and the entire community, collectively nurturing an unprecedentedly prosperous liquidity ecosystem.
Behind All This: Our Core Philosophy
Everything we are doing is not a random business transformation but follows a simple yet profound logic: Culture → Attention → Liquidity → Value
From initially building the underlying DEX, to innovating fair token issuance (FTO), and now launching Pot2Pump, every step we take is well thought out. What we are building is a critical infrastructure that transforms intangible cultural energy into sustainable economic value.
The future of Honeypot 2.0 transcends chain and geographical boundaries. Every product we create is born for the future of decentralized finance—they are open enough, inclusive enough, and deeply understand the cultural pulse of this world. This is not only a summary of our past achievements but also a new starting point for us to open the future. We hope to build a sustainable DeFi new home for everyone around the world.
Our journey has just begun. Stay tuned!
