- Bonding curve
- The price rule a new token starts on. Every buy moves the price up a little, every sell moves it down. No order book, no presale.
- Graduation
- When the curve is full (the bone fills up), the token moves to DogSwap by itself and its liquidity is locked forever.
- KOTH (King of the Hill)
- The token with the highest market cap that is still on the curve, after holding the top spot for 5 minutes.
- Market cap
- Price times total supply. A quick way to compare the size of two tokens.
- Liquidity (LP)
- The DOGE and tokens in the pool that let people trade. On Dogstarter it is locked forever after graduation.
- Rug / rug pull
- When the people behind a token take the money and leave. Locked liquidity and a fixed supply make the classic rug impossible here, but a creator can still sell their own tokens.
- Dev sold
- The creator sold some of their tokens. Not always bad, but worth knowing.
- Doghouse
- The label for a token its creator left alone. A community can adopt it (CTO).
- Sniper
- A bot or person who buys in the first seconds. Dogstarter adds a big tax in the first seconds so snipers do not win.
- Bundle
- Many wallets buying in the same block at launch, often the same person. It shows up as a warning.
- Linked wallets
- Wallets that look connected (bought in the same block, or together with the creator). Shown on the bubble map.
- Slippage
- How much worse than the shown price you accept, because the price can move before your trade lands.
- Creator fee
- 70% of the 1% trade fee goes to the creator, who can keep it or use it to buy back and burn the token.
- Buyback & burn
- Using fees to buy tokens and destroy them for good, so fewer are left.
- $DOG
- The Dogstarter platform token. Part of every fee buys it back and burns it.
- Points
- What you earn by trading, quests and inviting friends. They count toward a future $DOG airdrop. The value is not fixed.
- Bone chest
- Your daily reward box: finish the day's quests to open it.
- Walkies
- Your streak of active days in a row.
- Diamond paws
- Held a token from the curve all the way to graduation without selling.
- Paper hands
- Sold too early. Happens to every dog.
- Ape in
- Buying fast without much research. Try the anti-FOMO pause in Settings.
- DYOR
- Do your own research. Nothing on Dogstarter is financial advice.
- Gas
- The small DOGE fee the DogeOS network charges for every transaction.
- DogeOS
- The network Dogstarter runs on: fast and cheap, secured by Dogecoin.
- DogSwap
- Dogstarter's own exchange where graduated tokens trade.
