How to Deploy Your Own Token on Robinhood Chain: Standard Tax vs Clog

Two ways to launch: Pons versus deploying your own contract

Robinhood Chain gives creators two fundamentally different ways to launch a token. Pons puts a token on a bonding curve that graduates into a locked liquidity pool once it hits a fixed volume threshold - the token's contract and tax logic are the protocol's, not the creator's. Deploying your own token is the other path: you own the contract, you set the tax rate yourself, and you seed the liquidity pool directly rather than through a bonding curve.

TokenBundle's Deploy Token tool handles this second path: choose a contract type, set its parameters, and deploy without writing or compiling Solidity yourself.

Standard Tax: a fixed rate with no way to change it later

A Standard Tax token has one buy tax percentage and one sell tax percentage, set once when you deploy and never adjustable afterward - there is no function in the contract that lets the owner raise or lower the tax after deployment. For anyone evaluating a new token, this is a meaningful, checkable fact: the rate you see at launch is the rate that stays, by contract design, not by promise.

• Buy tax and sell tax are set independently, each capped at 50% by the contract itself - deployment simply reverts above that.
• Optional anti-snipe window, measured in blocks rather than time - set it to 0 to disable it entirely.
• During an active anti-snipe window, only wallets added through configureLaunch() can buy at all; everyone else's buy transaction reverts.
• Whitelisted buyers during the anti-snipe window still pay the normal buy tax - the window restricts who can buy, not what they pay.

Clog: an anti-snipe window plus a liquidity reserve

A Clog token starts from the same fixed-tax foundation but adds two things Standard Tax doesn't have: buy and sell tax rates that step down after a set number of trades, and a separate mechanism that withholds a percentage of the token supply from the initial liquidity pool itself.

• Initial buy and sell tax rates, and separate final rates the contract steps down to once a set number of taxed trades has occurred - a one-time switch, not a gradual decline.
• An anti-snipe window in blocks, during which only whitelisted wallets can buy - and unlike Standard Tax, those whitelisted buys are tax-free during the window.
• A clog percentage, up to 50%, deducted from the token side of the initial liquidity seed - covered in detail in a separate guide, since it's the one mechanic genuinely specific to this contract.

Deploying: what actually happens, step by step

• Choose Standard Tax or Clog, and set the parameters - tax rates, anti-snipe window length, max transaction and max wallet limits.
• Deploy the contract - you become its owner and receive the entire initial supply.
• Transfer the portion of supply meant for the liquidity pool, and send the ETH meant to pair with it, to the contract's own address.
• Call openTrading() - this seeds a Uniswap V2 pool from the contract's own balances and, for Clog, starts the anti-snipe window.
• From here, manage the token - verify the contract, monitor trading, remove transaction limits, or burn the LP tokens - from TokenBundle's manage panel.

Choosing between them

Standard Tax is the simpler, more predictable option: one rate, clearly stated, nothing that changes after launch. It fits a creator who wants a straightforward token without an elaborate anti-snipe story.

Clog is built for a creator who specifically wants to defend the opening minutes of trading against snipers, and is willing to take on the added complexity of a stepped tax schedule and a liquidity reserve mechanic to get it. If you don't plan to use the anti-snipe window at all, Standard Tax gets you most of the same fixed-tax outcome with less to explain to your holders.

FAQ

• Can the creator raise the tax after launch? No, for either contract - buy and sell tax percentages are set at deployment and there is no function to change them afterward.
• What happens if I set the anti-snipe window to 0 blocks? Trading opens with no snipe protection at all - the window only has an effect if you set it to more than 0 blocks.
• Does either contract need a separate compile step for my specific token? No - both are deployed from one shared, pre-compiled contract with your parameters passed into the constructor, which is what lets Deploy Token deploy instantly rather than compiling fresh Solidity for every token.
• Does my deployed token work with Custom Bundle automatically? Yes - both contracts expose the same configureLaunch(address[], bool) whitelist function, which Custom Bundle already recognizes and fills in automatically after you deploy, instead of requiring you to enter it manually.
