- 01The potEvery trade pays a 1% fee. 0.8% of each trade goes to the coin's pot (Meteora keeps the rest). Each 10-minute round, the pot is every fee the coin earned since its last payout, before and after graduation.
- 02Who's eligibleWallets in the coin's voice chat holding at least $20 of the coin, checked at the live price every 10 seconds. Below $20 at a check = no points for that check.
- 03PointsEvery 10 seconds, each eligible listener earns points equal to the tokens they hold at that moment. At most 10,000,000 tokens count per wallet.
- 04Your payoutPot × (your points ÷ everyone's points), pushed straight to your wallet. VoicePad pays the network fees, so listeners get the full pot.
- 05Nobody listening?Then nothing is paid and the pot rolls into the next round.
- 06Tiny payoutsAnything under 0.001 SOL carries over to your next round until it reaches 0.001 SOL. Nothing is lost.
A round, worked out
In one 10-minute round the coin earns a 0.5 SOL pot. The coin trades at $0.0005, so $20 is 40,000 tokens. VoicePad pays the network fees, so all 0.5 SOL is shared.
| Listener | Tokens held · value | Time in the voice chat | Points | Payout |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wallet A | 20,000,000 · $10,000 (10M counted) | all 10 min · 60 checks | 600,000,000 | 0.414783 SOL |
| Wallet B | 4,000,000 · $2,000 | 5 min · 30 checks | 120,000,000 | 0.082957 SOL |
| Wallet C | 50,000 · $25 | all 10 min · 60 checks | 3,000,000 | 0.002074 SOL |
| Wallet D | 30,000 · $15 | all 10 min · 60 checks | 0 (under $20) | — |
| Wallet E | 45,000 · $22.50 | 1 min · 6 checks | 270,000 | 0.000187 SOL → carried over |
Everyone's points add up to 723,270,000. Wallet A gets 0.5 × 600,000,000 ÷ 723,270,000 = 0.414783 SOL. Wallet D holds less than $20, so it earns no points. Wallet E's 0.000187 SOL is under 0.001 SOL, so it carries over and is paid once it adds up.
Safety checks
- Every pot is checked against the coin's real on-chain trades before it's paid. Any size pays if it matches.
- Every payout is checked against its points share, and the total never exceeds what was claimed.
- A mismatch pauses that coin's payouts for a manual check. The payout wallet only holds the round it's paying.
Receipts and rooms
- Every round gets a public receipt: who got what, with links to each transaction on Solscan.
- The full listening ledger behind each round can be downloaded and re-checked.
- Hosted rooms: the creator mutes, removes and pins. Self-running rooms: no host.
