Boardwalk

Boardwalk is a permissionless, community-centered fee-protection protocol for launching, discovering, and participating in token economies. Issuers create a launch, define its rules up front, and auction a new token under visible mechanics. If the auction reaches its graduation threshold, the raised asset pairs with the token supply to seed permanently locked liquidity, and the token moves into a live economy. If the threshold isn't met, contributors can claim a full refund.

The protocol facilitates launches end-to-end in one place: auction, liquidity seeding, LP participation, fee routing, and vote direction. Issuers choose between two launch paths — Express, a 24-hour auction with streamlined defaults, and Advanced, a 7-day auction with configurable vesting, multiple fee recipients, and an optional referrer. Liquidity providers of tokens launched through Boardwalk can earn from up to three sources: normal swap fees, a dedicated fee-stream from all token swaps and transfers, and a share of the vesting allocation if vesting was configured into the launch.
