🚀 Alpha Vault Overview
Alpha Vault is an anti-sniping tool designed to protect token launches from sniper bots by giving genuine supporters early access to buy tokens before public trading begins.
💡 Core Features
- Token Launch Protection: Buy tokens before pool activation to block snipers.
- Fair Pricing: All participants receive tokens at the same average price.
- Vesting Options: Tokens can be locked/vested to promote commitment.
- Customizable: Projects can set deposit caps, vesting schedules, and participation limits.
🔄 How Alpha Vault Works
- Vault Opens for Deposits
Users deposit SOL/USDC to reserve participation. Withdrawals allowed until deposit period ends. - Vault Buys Tokens
Post-deposit period, the vault uses the pooled funds to buy tokens from a whitelisted pool. - Token Distribution
Tokens are distributed proportionally based on deposit share. Lock-up/vesting may apply. - Tokens Become Claimable
After a delay (post-launch), tokens start unlocking per the project’s vesting schedule.
📊 Pricing Mechanics
- Average Vault Price = Total USDC used ÷ Total tokens bought
- Your Token Allocation = Your USDC used ÷ Average Vault Price
Example:
USDC used: 2.42M | Tokens bought: 39.49M
Avg price ≈ 0.0614 USDC/token
If you contributed 100 USDC → You get ≈ 1,628.77 tokens
🧩 Modes of Participation
1. Pro Rata Mode
- Everyone deposits freely, but token buys are capped.
- If vault cap < total deposits, unused USDC is refunded.
- Everyone gets the same token price.
- Token distribution is proportional to deposit size.
2. FCFS Mode (First Come First Serve)
- Vault closes once deposit cap is reached.
- Only the first to deposit get in.
- No partial refunds — if you’re late, you miss out.
⚠️ Important Notes
- Token claiming cannot start before trading begins — to avoid creating an unofficial early market.
- Market price risk: There’s no guarantee your vault purchase price will be below market after launch.
- Claim anytime: No deadline for claiming vested tokens.
