How it works
An opening auction, built into the pool.
Stock exchanges never open with a stampede, they open with an auction. Gavel brings that to every Uniswap v4 launch, enforced by the hook itself.
-
Step 1 · T − 15:00
The creator opens a pool
The pool is created with the Gavel hook attached. The creator sets how long the auction runs, how many seats block zero has, a minimum bid, and the fee jobs.
-
Step 2 · Sealed bidding
Everyone seals a bid
Humans and bots alike commit a hidden price for a guaranteed seat in block zero. Nobody can see anyone else's number, so nobody can front-run.
-
Step 3 · T = 0
One fair price is set
Bids are revealed. The highest win the seats, and every winner pays the same price: the lowest winning bid. Everyone else is refunded in full.
-
Step 4 · Block 0
Only winners can trade
In block zero, the hook rejects every swap without a seat. Then the pool opens to all, with a fee that fades block by block so late snipers pay too.
The vault
After the auction, the fees keep working.
The locked liquidity earns a fee on every trade. It lands in the launch's vault, and every five minutes a trade sweeps it and spends it on the jobs the creator picked. Up to three, fixed at launch, forever.
Locked liquidity
Half the fees buy the token, then both halves deepen the pool's full-range position. Nobody can ever pull it.
Staking
Holders stake the token in the vault and earn the fees in ETH, pro-rata. Unstake whenever you want.
Dividends
Every holder earns the fees in ETH, pro-rata to their balance. Nothing to stake, claim any time.
Creator
The fees go to the creator, on top of 80% of the opening auction.

FAQ
Straight answers.
Can a bot still win the auction?
Yes, and that's the point. If a sniper wants block zero, they can buy it from the creator, at a price set in the open. What disappears is the free ride.
Is there a Gavel token?
No. No token, no points, no airdrop. Gavel takes 5% of auction proceeds. That's the whole business model.
Who runs the vault?
Nobody in particular. A trade that comes five minutes after the last cycle runs the next one in the same transaction, and anyone can run one by hand. Every cycle is a public transaction.
Can the creator change the jobs later?
No. The jobs and their split are written when the pool is created and the contracts have no way to change them.
Why Robinhood Chain?
It's where launches happen right now: launchpads are one of the largest app categories on the chain, and Uniswap is one of its biggest apps. Fast blocks and low fees make a sealed-bid auction cheap to run.
What stops someone bidding from 50 wallets?
Nothing, and it doesn't help them. Every extra seat they take pushes the clearing price up, and each seat has a size cap. Splitting wallets just means paying the creator more.
What if nobody bids?
Then block zero is simply empty and the pool opens normally, still protected by the fading fee. Auction settings are locked when the pool is created.
Can I try it?
Yes. The app runs the real contracts: create a launch, seal a bid, reveal it, settle, trade block zero, then stake or claim what the fees paid you.
Stop getting sniped.
Your next launch opens with an auction, and its fees keep paying the people who hold it.
