Hold thepodium.Open the pack.
Every token launched on Podium pays its top 15 holders every hour in $PODIUM — straight from the treasury, as long as the token moved $50k in the last 2 hours.
Launched tokens: 1st place gets 0.15% of the free treasury, 15th gets 0.01%. Holders of $PODIUM itself get ten times more — 1.5% down to 0.1%. Checked every hour at a random minute.
Who pays out this hour
A token qualifies when its trading volume over the last 2 hours reaches $50k. When the hourly snapshot hits, its top 15 holders get packs.
What each place gets
Packs are a share of the treasury’s free balance at the moment of the snapshot. Higher place — bigger pack. Holders of $PODIUM itself play for packs ten times bigger. Amounts below are live estimates for the next drop.
Four moves, every hour
Launch
Create a token in one transaction on a Meteora bonding curve. No mint or freeze authority, ever. Your dev-buy goes first, at the minimum fee.
Trade
1% fee on every trade. Part of it buys $PODIUM into the treasury, part goes to whoever launched the token.
Snapshot
Once an hour, at a random minute, the keeper checks the last 2 hours of volume. Over $50k? The top 15 holders are locked in on-chain.
Open the pack
Each qualifying hour drops a reward pack of 15 cards. Your place is your guaranteed card — open it on Podium for a 25% chance to go one place up and 5% to hit the 1st-place jackpot.
Every trade feeds the treasury
20%
40%
32%
After a token graduates to Meteora DAMM v2, its locked liquidity keeps earning — the same split continues there forever.
30% of supply, locked in code
When $PODIUM graduates from its bonding curve, 300,000,000 tokens (30% of supply) move into the treasury — an account owned by the program, not by a person. Nobody can withdraw from it: tokens only leave as packs to the top holders.
A drop for a launched token takes 1.2% of the free balance, a $PODIUM drop 12%, and all drops in one hour together can never take more than half of it. Buybacks refill it non-stop.
The fine print, in plain words
Who counts as a holder?
Every wallet holding the token, ranked by its biggest token account. Pools, vaults, lockers and other program accounts are not holders, and neither is the wallet that launched the token or the treasury itself.
When exactly is the snapshot?
Once per hour per token, at a random minute that nobody knows in advance. Buying a minute before and selling a minute after is a coin flip, not a strategy.
How is the $50k volume measured?
Over a sliding window: at the snapshot the keeper looks at the last 2 hours of buys and sells (on the curve and after graduation). It is derived from the pools’ own on-chain fee counters and converted to dollars at the current SOL price; the keeper records the figure on-chain with every drop.
How does the reward pack work?
Every qualifying hour, a token’s top 15 holders share one reward pack of 15 cards. Your place in the top is your guaranteed card. When the pack is revealed, every card is rolled: 25% chance to move one place up, 5% chance to become the 1st-place card. The roll uses the hash of a Solana slot fixed when the pack is created — nobody, including us, can know or change it in advance, and opening twice changes nothing.
How big is a pack?
For tokens launched on Podium, place 1 gets 0.15% of the treasury’s free balance, place 2 gets 0.14%, and so on down to 0.01% for place 15 — 1.2% in total per token per hour. Holders of $PODIUM itself get ten times more: 1.5% for place 1 down to 0.1% for place 15. The program itself computes the amounts; the keeper only submits who is in the top.
Do I have to claim?
Yes — open your packs on the My packs page within the claim window (7 days). Anyone can pay the fee to deliver your pack, but the tokens always go to your wallet. Expired packs go back to the treasury.
What does the launcher get?
20% of the creator share of fees — 8% of every trade fee on the token, for its whole life. Claimable at any time from the token page.
Can anyone change the rules or take the treasury?
Parameters have hard limits written into the program: a drop can never exceed 20% of the free treasury, an hour can never exceed 50%, and there is no instruction that withdraws treasury tokens to anyone except pack winners.
