Know where fees go.
4chanpad connects a coin to its original public thread and makes its creator-fee route explicit before launch. New coins use a recoverable vault and can assign claims to the launcher, a selected secure-tripcode poster, or the treasury.
The idea
Every coin points to a specific public 4chan thread. A thread link is a source citation, not proof that its launcher wrote the post.
Choose an X-sponsored first launch or pay the network cost with a connected Solana wallet. Confirmed mints appear in Launches with links to Pump.fun and the source thread.
Pump.fun records a Solana creator address on the coin. Fees accrue in that creator's vault and are collected separately.
4chanpad is independent of 4chan. Posts are attributed to and linked back to their original source.
Threads and archives
Browse a board, sort current threads, open replies, or paste an official thread URL. The feed refreshes every 30 seconds while the page is open. The public 4chan API is read only and may stop serving old or deleted posts; the site cannot retrieve every historical thread.
Watchlist entries are stored in your browser. Clearing local browser storage removes them. Thread text and images remain attributed to 4chan.
How a launch works
Pick a public thread. The coin's website is set to the original URL and the server checks that the thread exists.
Choose a name, editable ticker and description. The original post image is preselected as the coin image. You can upload a different PNG, JPG or WebP under 2 MB; if the post has no image, an upload is required. For video or GIF posts, the source thumbnail is used. The original image must still be available when launching.
Choose one free X-sponsored launch if available, or connect a Solana wallet and inspect the transaction. Every new coin sets a recoverable 4chanpad vault as creator. Then choose Launcher claim, Tripcode claim, or Treasury. Launcher claim reserves fees for the verified launch identity. Tripcode claim requires the public !! code shown on an existing OP or reply in the live thread. Treasury assigns no personal claimant.
After on-chain confirmation, the mint appears in Launches and Claims. In wallet mode, your wallet pays the Solana network cost. In free mode, a dedicated 4chanpad sponsor wallet pays it once per X account while funded. Neither mode includes a token purchase.
One free launch with X
Sign in through xpad.social, which already connects to X. If you have an xpad session, it can verify your identity without a new X prompt. Otherwise xpad may request its existing X permissions to sign you in. 4chanpad receives only your stable X account ID and username through a short-lived signed handoff; it never receives your X access token or password and does not post to your account. The server stores a signed login cookie for seven days and a durable one-use record keyed to the X account ID. Changing a handle or wallet does not reset the allowance.
Choose “First launch free with X” in the thread launch form. A dedicated sponsor wallet signs and pays the Solana network cost, with no initial token purchase. If you choose Launcher claim, the stable X account ID is recorded as the only identity allowed to bind a payout wallet later; the shared sponsor wallet never receives that claim right. Tripcode claim and Treasury remain available. If the sponsor wallet is low on SOL, free launch pauses and wallet launch remains available. A confirmed launch uses the allowance permanently.
Checking live X sign-in and sponsor status…
Creator fees today
The launch instruction names a coin-specific 4chanpad-controlled vault as the on-chain creator. The fee-routing choice decides who may prove a claim to that vault: the launch wallet or free-launch X account, a selected secure-tripcode poster, or nobody outside the treasury controller. A secure-tripcode reply author can be selected even when the OP is anonymous, but that does not identify the reply author as the OP.
Fees accrue at Pump.fun and must be swept and collected before withdrawal. Naming the vault at launch does not send fees instantly. The Claims page displays the currently collectible balance; it is not lifetime earnings. Existing coins keep their on-chain creator setting and original claim mode.
Claiming creator fees Checking status
The claim center lists every confirmed launch, its assigned route, the on-chain creator vault, and the amount currently available in Pump creator-fee vaults. Fees still waiting for a sweep and earlier withdrawals are not included in that balance. The first valid saved proof binds one payout wallet to the coin.
Launcher claim
For a wallet-funded launch, reconnect the exact Solana wallet that signed and paid for the launch. It signs a one-hour challenge and becomes the payout wallet. For a free launch, sign in with the exact stable X account that used the sponsored launch, connect the Solana wallet that should receive fees, and sign the binding message. The sponsor wallet cannot claim merely because it paid the network cost.
Tripcode claim
At launch, enter the public secure tripcode of a live OP or reply. The selected author opens the coin’s claim page, connects a payout wallet, receives a one-hour code, and posts it in a fresh reply using the same secure tripcode. 4chanpad checks the live public API for the matching reply and binds the signed wallet. Never enter the tripcode password on 4chanpad.
Withdrawal and 50% archive split
Claim Center saves your progress across sweep, collection and payout. Reopen the claim with the same wallet to resume, or check the public fee ledger for finalized receipts. Use Launch status to recover a launch without submitting it again.
The verified payout wallet signs a fresh withdrawal challenge. The app can sweep fees left in the Pump coin or pool and collect them into the derived per-coin vault. Every withdrawal is then split atomically in one Solana transaction: 50% goes to the verified claimant wallet and 50% goes to the 4plebs archive donation wallet at 3SiobUuNKn734LaCyigvNGn2PyB8EyjVJZmVdHZxrM9Q ↗. The address is listed on the 4plebs donation page ↗. 4plebs is an independent 4chan archive. The claimant pays Solana network fees. Later withdrawals use the same bound wallet without repeating identity proof.
Never enter a 4chan password, tripcode secret, wallet private key, or recovery phrase on this site.
Controller and recovery
4chanpad’s owner keeps a private 32-byte seed as the Railway secret CLAIM_VAULT_SEED and in an offline backup. The app derives a separate Solana creator key for each mint with HMAC-SHA256 over 4chanpad:creator:v1:<mint>. This keeps every coin’s fees separate and allows recovery from the mint. Losing or replacing the seed can permanently strand fees.
CLAIM_VAULT_ENABLED=1 activates recoverable routing and claimant proofs. CLAIM_PAYOUT_ENABLED=1 activates fee collection and withdrawal for wallets that completed the launch-assigned proof. The backend checks the stored launch, confirmed on-chain creator, signed challenge, immutable proof, and payout recipient before co-signing any vault transfer. Treasury mode remains under site control. The seed is never requested in chat, a 4chan reply, or the browser claim form.
Questions
Can the person who launched a coin claim its fees?
Yes, when Launcher claim was selected before launch. A wallet launch must reconnect its original launch wallet. A free launch must sign in with the same stable X account and then bind a Solana payout wallet.
Can I sign in with my 4chan account?
No. The public API exposes posts, not an account sign-in or a private proof of who posted. 4chan Pass is not an identity login for this site.
Can anyone who replies claim poster fees?
No. The claimant must control the secure tripcode selected at launch, post the fresh code, and sign with the payout wallet. Anyone who knows that shared tripcode secret can demonstrate the same control, so do not share it.
What if my thread expires?
A Tripcode proof must finish while the required posts remain available in the public API. Launcher proof does not depend on the thread. Once any payout wallet is verified, later withdrawals do not require the thread.
Can I change the claim route later?
No. Existing coins retain the on-chain creator vault and claim mode chosen at launch. A Treasury launch cannot gain a personal claimant later.
Where can I check a launch?
Open Launches for the confirmed mint and Pump.fun link, or Claims for the fee route and live balance.
