Locking tokens launched on Lemon.fun.
Lemon.fun runs fair bonding curves with locked LP and graduation to SushiSwap or Uniswap v3. What separates it from most of the chain's launchpads is how much you configure: bonding caps, taxes, allocations and liquidity settings are all yours to set before deploying.
Configurable allocations change the question
On a launchpad with no team allocation, the only thing a creator holds is what they bought. On Lemon.fun you can allocate supply to yourself deliberately, and the moment you do, that allocation becomes the thing holders examine.
This is not an argument against allocating. Teams need supply, and a project with nothing set aside for contributors has a different problem. It is an argument for being explicit about what happens to it, because a configurable allocation with no schedule attached reads as discretion the market has to price.
Allocation and schedule are one decision
The size of an allocation and its release schedule are read together, not separately. Twenty percent on a four-year vest is a commitment; the same twenty percent sitting liquid is an overhang. If you're already choosing the number in Lemon.fun's launch form, choose the schedule in the same sitting — the benchmarks are here.
Doing it
- Copy your token's contract address from its page on Lemon.fun.
- Open HoodLock with the wallet holding the tokens.
- Pick the token, the amount and a date. For vesting, add the beneficiary and an optional cliff.
- Approve, confirm, and share the proof link.
Flat 0.005 ETH either way, no percentage of the tokens, and a proof page that reads live from the chain and opens without a wallet.
The liquidity side
Lemon.fun locks LP at graduation, so that part is handled. Graduated liquidity lands on SushiSwap V3 or Uniswap V3, where a position is an NFT rather than an ERC-20 LP token, so it is not something HoodLock's locker holds, and it does not need to be. Tokens themselves are ERC-20 and can be locked or vested normally. How to check a lock for yourself.
Common questions
Does Lemon.fun lock liquidity?
Yes. Lemon.fun uses fair bonding curves with locked LP, and tokens graduate to SushiSwap or Uniswap v3. Verify the specific lock on your own token rather than assuming, since venues and terms differ.
Can I set a team allocation on Lemon.fun?
Yes. Bonding caps, taxes, allocations and liquidity settings are configurable at launch. An allocation you set lands in an ordinary wallet, which is what makes locking or vesting it a separate decision.
Should a Lemon.fun allocation be locked or vested?
Vest it if it goes to a team or contributors, since gradual release with a cliff says something about time. Lock it if it is a single allocation you intend to hold and one date is enough.
