rules

how rank works

rank is the usd value of what you sent. there is no algorithm, no weighting and no editorial. the board is ordered by one number and that number is public.

1. 01

   the coin you send is the coin that ranks

   the mint you send is the listing you are bidding on. sending $BONK is a bid for $BONK and nothing else. there is no form, no signature, no account and nothing to fill in.

2. 02

   your rank is the dollar value of what you sent

   we price your coin when the transfer reaches us, usually within seconds, and that number becomes your position. it is locked there. if the coin pumps or dumps afterwards your rank does not move, up or down. if we ever see a transfer long after it landed we hold it and price it by hand instead of guessing.

3. 03

   a coin's total is everyone who backed it added together

   anyone can send the same coin and every send adds to that coin's total. one person does not own a spot. we list every wallet that backed a coin and how much they sent.

4. 04

   send the same coin again to go higher

   your sends add up. to pass the coin above you, you only need to cover the gap between you, not start over.

5. 05

   if two coins tie, the earlier one stays higher

   matching a coin's total does not pass it. you have to send more than it.

6. 06

   sends under $2 do not move the board

   anything smaller still gets burned, it just does not change any rankings. this stops the bottom of the board being filled up for free.

7. 07

   a coin nobody trades cannot buy the top spot

   if a coin has almost no trading behind it, its price can say anything. so we cap what we credit it, based on how much real money is in its pool. when we cap something we show both numbers on the coin's page.

what to send, and what not to

this is a public address on a public chain. it will accept anything. most of what follows is about the things it accepts that we cannot turn into a rank.

1. 01

   solana coins onlycosts money

   if you send from another chain, it is gone. if it is not a solana token, it is gone. we cannot get it back and nor can anyone else.

2. 02

   do not send SOL itselfcosts money

   sol is not a memecoin so there is nothing to rank. it will not count towards anything. send the memecoin, not sol.

3. 03

   send from your own wallet, not an exchangecosts money

   if you withdraw straight from an exchange it arrives from the exchange's wallet, not yours. the coin still goes up, but you will not get the credit for it and we cannot move it to you later.

4. 04

   if we cannot price your coin, we cannot rank it

   some coins have no price anywhere, so there is no dollar amount to rank them by. we hold those to one side and list them publicly instead of letting them disappear.

5. 05

   check the address every timecosts money

   there is one address and it is at the top of every page here. we will never dm it to you or post it in a reply, and it does not change. if you got it anywhere else, it is not ours.

what happens to what you send

1. 01

   90% is burned, 10% is our fee

   we burn 90% of every coin sent to us and keep 10%. both numbers are live at the top of every page, not buried down here.

2. 02

   burning really destroys the coins

   we destroy the coins properly, so there is less of that coin in existence and anyone can check it on solscan. some sites send coins to a dead wallet and call that burning. the coins still exist. we do not do that.

3. 03

   your rank updates instantly, the burn happens after

   your coin moves up the board within seconds of arriving. we do the burning in batches a bit later, so for a while a coin is here but not burned yet. we show that amount at the top of every page as awaiting burn and we never count it as burned.

4. 04

   we post every burn

   every burn is listed with the coin, the amount and a link to the transaction. you never have to take our word for it.

what the board shows

1. 01

   you can pay for the rank. you cannot pay to change the data.

   every spot on this board was paid for and we say so everywhere. the row under each coin, whether the dev can print more, how much the top holders own, how many coins that dev made before, how much trading is real, and how old it is, is not for sale and we show it even when it looks bad.

2. 02

   being on this board is not a recommendation

   a coin being high up only means someone paid for it to be there. we do not check coins, we do not check teams, and we are not telling you to buy anything.

3. 03

   you cannot take a coin off the board

   there is no delete button. a coin that paid for #1 and then crashed stays up with its whole history, including what it paid and what happened next.

4. 04

   we will hide illegal names and images

   a coin's name and picture come from the coin itself and can be anything. if one carries illegal material or targets a private person, we hide the name and the picture. the rank, the amount and the address stay up, because the money did move and hiding that would be the dishonest part.

the part you should read twice

1. 01

   once you send, it is gonecosts money

   there is no undo, no cancel and no refund. not for the wrong amount, not for the wrong coin, not for changing your mind.

2. 02

   this is not financial advice

   we are a leaderboard, not a broker or an exchange or an adviser. nothing here is us telling you to buy something. memecoins go to zero all the time, including ones sitting at the top of this board.

3. 03

   paying for a rank buys eyes, not a pump

   on every coin we show what its rank actually got it, including the times it lost money. we show that because most of the time paying for attention does not pay for itself.
