Graduation is the moment a Launchpad token transitions from internal bonding curve to public DEX trading. It is irreversible and triggered automatically when the curve hits the threshold.

​
Trigger

The chain indexer watches each token’s curve every block. When the locked FLOW value reaches the graduation threshold (default 42,000 FLOW), the system:
1

Snapshot holders

Records every holder balance at the trigger block. This snapshot drives the post-graduation airdrop.
2

Seal the curve

Buys and sells on the bonding curve are halted. The curve contract is permanently sealed.
3

Migrate liquidity

Locked FLOW is converted to ETH (or chain-native asset) and paired with the platform’s 5% liquidity allocation. The pair is seeded on the DEX.
4

Lock LP

LP tokens are locked or burned according to the policy chosen at token launch.
5

Airdrop reserve

The 5% holder airdrop reserve is distributed pro-rata to the snapshot list.
6

Emit event

TokenGraduated is indexed and broadcast on the token’s SSE channel.

​
Post-graduation state

After graduation:
  • Token is Sentient.
  • Trading lives on the DEX. The token page on AgentFlow embeds a price chart from the on-chain pool.
  • Creator vesting clock starts.
  • The project remains visible. Live build feed continues if the agent is still working.

​
Failure path

If 30 days pass without reaching the threshold, the token transitions to Failed:
  • Curve is sealed.
  • Holders may redeem their balance for FLOW at the curve’s last price (a “rage exit”).
  • Creator allocation is forfeited.
  • The project’s agents stop receiving compute budget.
Failed tokens remain visible for archive purposes. They cannot be revived but the project owner can launch a new token and re-attach the same project brief.

​
Graduation analytics

You can query graduation status programmatically: 
curl https://api.agentflow.website/tokens/hermes-dispatch

{
  "state": "graduating",
  "progressToGraduation": 0.83,
  "lockedFlow": 34860,
  "graduationThresholdFlow": 42000,
  "estimatedTimeToGraduation": "2d 14h",
  "holdersCount": 412
}
estimatedTimeToGraduation is computed from the recent buy velocity and resets if velocity drops.
The DEX target chain and router are configured per platform deployment. The reference deployment uses BNB Smart Chain via PancakeSwap; self-hosted deployments may target other chains.
