Montra Partner

A standard Montra token is the same as every other: its whole supply minted once into a pool position that never comes out, no owner, no minting, and a fee from the menu (Launching a token). That sameness is why a trader can trust one without reading its code, and why a design that needs more can't sit among them.

Some designs need more: a game whose contract mints its rewards, a token that starts with no supply, part of a supply set aside for the project, or a launch fee that falls by half-lives or in steps, or over hours. Montra Partner is a second family of tokens for them. Every partner token is created by Montra's partner factory from Montra's partner token template, trades on Montra's partner hook (a Uniswap v4 hook), and is recorded in one on-chain registry, the Montra umbrella.

A standard pool may carry a falling fee on buys too, its anti-snipe fee: in a straight line, over at most half an hour, what it takes above the pool's fee going to the creator side. A partner's launch fee can take other shapes and run for longer, and most of what it takes above the long-run rate goes to Montra.

Its principle is disclosure over restriction. A partner token may differ from a standard one where its design needs it; what it can do is fixed at launch, readable on chain and set out in Montra's dated reviews. Each launch is curated: Montra approves it in advance, bound to its exact terms, and the approval can be used once.

Within limits the partner hook and the token template enforce whatever is chosen:

Supply

What is minted at launch, including none at all.

A minter

One contract, such as its game's mining contract, with a cap and optionally a rate; or no minter.

The fee schedule

From Montra's catalogue: flat, different for buys and sells, or a launch fee on buys that falls in a straight line, by half-lives or in steps, with an optional hold first. The catalogue can grow with reviewed additions, without a new hook.

Where fees go

Any address it names, for example its own revenue or staking contract, which it can later hand on.

How the market opens

Liquidity locked for good through Montra's locker (tokens, the quote asset, or both: a token with no supply can open with bids that buy what its miners sell), its own liquidity added with the launch itself, or both. For a set time after launch it can close the pool to new liquidity from anyone, the project included, except Montra's locker, so a launch fee can't be avoided through range orders. Liquidity can always be withdrawn.

An allocation

Part of the supply to its own wallets, vesting or distribution contracts, each one public.

Game emissions

A game or rewards contract as the token's minter; the token can start with no supply; flat fees.

Fair launch

A fixed supply, no minter, nothing allocated; an anti-snipe launch fee on buys that falls away soon after launch.

Project launch

An optional minter, part of the supply (at most half) to the project, and an anti-snipe launch fee on buys that falls away soon after launch.

Whatever its design, a partner token keeps these rules, and nothing a partner chooses can change them:

• No owner, no pause, no blacklist, no transfer tax, no rebasing and no upgrade on the token. Its name, symbol and profile are written once.
• Fees are fixed at launch and never rise. A launch fee, if there is one, is on buys and falls to the long-run rate within a set time; a sale's fee is capped at every moment, and the project can only lower its long-run fee.
• Fees are charged in the pool's quote asset, never in the token, and the pool's liquidity providers earn its LP fee as in any Uniswap v4 pool.
• Every trade fills the whole amount it asks for or does not happen. Nothing refuses a sale because it is a sale or because of who sends it, and nothing can stop a liquidity provider withdrawing, or charge them for it.
• A minter, if there is one, is a contract, never a personal wallet, fixed at launch, and it can never mint past its cap. The cap counts either everything ever minted or what exists now (so burned tokens can be mined again); both, and how much is still mintable, are readable on chain.
• Montra takes a fee on every trade, set at launch. During a launch fee, most of what it takes above the long-run rate goes to Montra, not the project, so a project buying its own launch pays the launch fee like anyone else.

The Montra umbrella is one registry that terminals and apps integrate once. It records every Montra Partner token, which only Montra's partner factory can add, beside Montra Listings under a family of its own. A partner token is never shown as a standard Montra token, and a standard one is never a partner token. Names, tickers and logos prove nothing; the registry does.

The registry shows each partner token's standing: active, flagged (shown with a warning), or label withdrawn (no longer presented as a Montra Partner token). Each can carry dated reviews: plain-language labels, such as that its minter has an owner, that part of its supply went to the project, that the project controls most of its pool's liquidity, or that it has emissions, and a published report. The registry, its contracts and their addresses are published with the product.

Market making

An introduction to Acheron Trading, a professional market maker Montra works closely with, where the project wants one.

• Not a way to bring an existing token from elsewhere: that is Montra Listings.
• Montra does not build or run a partner's own game, treasury or staking. Those stay the partner's contracts, and their powers are disclosed in the token's review.
• No hook can tax trades in other pools or on other venues.
