GLOSSARY

What is a fair launch?

A fair launch is a token launch where no buyer — including the creator — can get a better entry price or an earlier chance to buy than anyone else.

The definition that actually matters

Lots of launches call themselves "fair" without meeting a real bar. The concrete test: can any single party buy before, or more cheaply than, everyone else? If a deployer can buy the first block of a bonding curve, or a bot can front-run the crowd, it's not a fair launch no matter what the marketing says.

How Fuze implements it

Buyers commit funds to an on-chain escrow — a program-derived account with no private key — while a goal and countdown run. The token doesn't exist yet, so there's no block where anyone can buy early. When the goal fills, one transaction creates the token and buys the entire allocation at a single price, then distributes pro-rata to every buyer who committed. A per-wallet cap (creator-configurable) stops any one buyer, including the creator, from ending up with a disproportionate share.

FAQ

Is a fair launch the same as a fair-launch token (no presale, no team allocation)?

Related but distinct — that term is about tokenomics (no presale/VC allocation). Fuze's "fair launch" is about the launch mechanism itself: equal entry price and no early-buy advantage, regardless of tokenomics.
