Trading & swaps

Every Hoodl token trades on a standard Uniswap V3 pool from the moment it launches. There’s no locked “pre-graduation” phase and no migration — it’s the same pool forever.

Buying and selling

Section titled “Buying and selling”

Open a token’s page or the Swap surface, pick a direction, enter an amount, review the expected output, price impact, and slippage, then confirm. Trades route through Uniswap V3.

Swap any token

Section titled “Swap any token”

The picker isn’t limited to Hoodl launches. Search a token’s name or symbol to find it, or paste a contract address to import any ERC-20 with a Uniswap route on Robinhood Chain — imported tokens show their live balance and trade like any other. If there’s no pool, the quote simply comes back empty.

Fees

Section titled “Fees”

Two fees can apply, and they’re independent:

  • The pool’s 1% fee — every swap against a Hoodl pool pays the Uniswap pool’s 1% fee. That fee is what funds the creator split — 30% to the protocol and 70% to the token’s recipients. See Fees for the full breakdown.
  • The 0.5% swap fee — trades made through the Hoodl Swap surface pay a 0.5% fee to the Hoodl treasury, taken from the swap output before you’re paid. The quote you see already has it deducted, and it’s shown as a line item before you confirm — nothing hidden.

No token taxes

Section titled “No token taxes”

Hoodl tokens are plain ERC-20s with no transfer tax. The fee lives in the Uniswap pool, not in the token contract. That means:

  • Transfers and approvals behave exactly like any standard token.
  • Aggregators and routers price and route them normally — nothing is silently skimmed on transfer.

Locked liquidity

Section titled “Locked liquidity”

The launch liquidity is a single-sided Uniswap V3 position held by Hoodl’s vault and locked forever — it can never be withdrawn or migrated. The protocol keeps only the right to collect the trading fees from it. This is the core anti-rug property: the liquidity underpinning the token can’t be pulled.

Slippage

Section titled “Slippage”

New tokens can be thin and move fast. Set a slippage tolerance you’re comfortable with; too low and your trade may revert, too high and you may get a worse price. The swap UI shows the minimum you’ll receive before you confirm.
