Questions, answered.
The steps and the numbers are in How it works.
What is REA.fund?
A token launchpad on Robinhood Chain for free software: open-source, reverse-engineered and AI-built projects. Each launch names its project by its GitHub repository, and the paid product it replaces when there is one.
Does REA.fund rebuild software for me?
No. It launches tokens around software that already exists: a project you built, or one you want to rally people around.
Do I need a token to use the software?
No. Nothing here puts a project behind a token. Check each project's own licence: free to use and open source aren't always the same thing.
Can anyone launch a token?
Yes, once launches open: around any public GitHub repository whose owner hasn't opted out, with no review by us. A launch of someone else's project is a community launch, and at least 50% of its creator fee is held for the project's developer. Be honest about your connection, use only images you may use, and don't suggest the developer launched or endorses it. The terms apply; an abusive, unsafe or misleading launch may be hidden from this site.
Where does the trade fee go?
All of it to the REA.fund treasury: 1% of every buy and sell, before and after graduation. The treasury puts 30% of it into $REAFUND's pool as locked liquidity, half buying $REAFUND and half paired with it: the treasury's commitment, not a rule in the contracts. Launching also pays the treasury a one-off 0.0005 ETH launch fee. The treasury's address is in the docs.
How do developers earn?
From the creator fee: 1% to 10% of every buy and sell, set by the launcher and fixed at launch. At least 50% of it is held for the project's developer, who claims it through GitHub; a developer who launches their own project gets all of it. What it earns depends on trading volume, not the token's price. Where every fee goes.
I own a repository. What can I do?
On its project page, sign in with GitHub as its owner: the account that owns it, or an owner of the organisation that does, never an admin or maintainer. Then claim the share held for it by naming a wallet, which can withdraw after 3 days of public notice; mark one launch as yours; or opt out, no wallet needed, so no new launch can name it. Signing in alone changes nothing, and nobody here will contact you about a launch.
Is a project's developer behind this launch?
Check its badge. By the developer: the owner's own wallet launched it. Developer-authorized: the owner marked this launch as theirs. Anything else is a community launch: Community-led until the owner verifies, then Developer verified, which means they receive the project's share, not that they run or endorse the launch.
What can a launcher change after launch?
On this site: the description, the screenshot, the logo (once a week), community links and update posts, each signed by the launch's creator wallet. Never the name, ticker, project, developer's share, fees or pair: those are fixed on chain.
What does buying a project token give me?
The token. Not ownership of the software, any rights in it, a share of profits, or a promise that anyone keeps building it. Tokens are speculative and can lose all their value.
Does a launch bet against the company it names?
No. Naming a giant says which paid product the free project takes on. Buying a launch buys its token and nothing else: no position on any stock. On a launch paired with a giant's Stock Token, you pay in that Stock Token.
What is a Stock Token pair?
Every launch trades against one asset, fixed at launch: ETH, another coin, or a Robinhood Stock Token. With a Stock Token, you buy and sell in it, and the pool pairs with it. A Stock Token is Robinhood's token for a stock or fund, not the share itself: Robinhood decides who may hold it, and can pause it, block an address from moving it or burn it. A launch paired with one inherits that, and can't trade while it is paused.
Are project links safe?
Not necessarily: REA.fund doesn't check them. Treat outside software and links with care, and never share a recovery phrase or a private key.
Is REA.fund the Reverse Engineer Anything open-source project?
No. REA.fund is an independent launchpad, not affiliated with or endorsed by that project's developers.
