Rename Pad launches coins whose name can be bought. Anyone can rename a coin; every new name costs 1.1x the last one; the previous namer is paid 40%, half of the price buys the coin back and burns it. Every number on this page is read from the program.

1. How a rename works

1. Type a name (1-32 bytes) and a ticker (1-10 letters or digits). The house checks it as you type.
2. Hammer it. The site pins a new metadata file (same picture, new name), asks the house for its signature, and builds one transaction: the house's Ed25519 approval, the rename instruction, and the largest buyback the program accepts right now.
3. You sign once. The program pays the previous namer, the house and the coin's burn pot, rewrites the Token-2022 metadata of the coin (name, ticker, link) and records the new name in the coin's history for good.
4. The new name is protected for 1 h. After that the next name costs 1.1x.

2. A worked example

A coin launched with the base price 0.050 SOL. Three people rename it in turn:

Namer 1 paid 0.050 and got 0.022 back when namer 2 arrived. Renaming your own coin to farm the 40% loses at least 60% of the price every time.

3. The price ladder

price_0 = ceil_1000(base), price_n = ceil_1000(price_(n-1) x (10000 + step_bps) / 10000), with step_bps = 1000 (+10%). ceil_1000 rounds up to 1000 lamports (0.000001 SOL). The step, the split and the protection time are copied into each coin when it launches; a later settings change never touches an existing coin.

4. Where the money goes

Rename price

40% to the previous namer (the creator for the first rename), 10% to the pad treasury, 50% (the remainder, including rounding) into the coin's burn pot. The transfers happen inside the rename instruction: nobody has to claim anything.

Trading fees

Coins trade on a Meteora bonding curve with a 1% fee, then on a Meteora DAMM v2 pool. The pad's share of the fees is collected by anyone (collect_fees, collect_amm_fees) and split per coin: 50% for the coin's creator, 20% into the burn pot, 30% to the treasury.

Launch

A flat 0.020 SOL plus 2.5% of the creator's optional first buy. The first buy happens in the launch instruction itself, before anyone else can trade.

5. The burn

The burn pot is spent by buyback_curve (on the bonding curve) or buyback_amm (after the move to DAMM v2): the pad buys the coin and burns every token bought in the same instruction. The site adds the largest acceptable buyback to your rename transaction; the keeper spends the rest in steps. Each buyback may move the price by at most 1% (on the pool after the move, less when outside liquidity providers share the fees) and runs at most once every 60 s, and it must not sit next to a swap in its transaction: a sandwich around it costs more in fees than it can take. Anyone can run a buyback.

6. The house (moderation)

Every launch name and every rename needs the house's Ed25519 signature. The house refuses brands, the names and tickers of established coins, slurs (including leet and look-alike spellings), stylised or invisible letters, words that mix Latin with look-alike letters of another alphabet, names on the on-chain stop-list, and metadata whose name does not match. It also checks the chain: the coin, the rename number, the protection time and your wallet.

The signed message is 44 bytes: "renamepad:v1" || sha256(mint || index u64 LE || namer || valid_until i64 LE || sha256(name || 0 || ticker || 0 || uri)). It is bound to one coin, one rename number and one wallet, and expires within 600 s. A copied approval is useless to anyone else. The house's key: -.

On chain there is also a hash stop-list (Blocked accounts) the admin maintains. The history of a coin can never be erased: the stop-list only stops new names.

9. Accounts and seeds

10. Instructions

Launch and rename need the house's approval; buybacks, fee collection, the move to DAMM v2 and the creator payout can be run by anyone.

11. Errors

12. Verify on chain

1. Program: -. Config: -.
2. Read a coin's mint: its Token-2022 metadata update authority is the partner PDA -; the mint has no mint or freeze authority.
3. Read History ["hist", mint, 0..n]: n + 1 entries, each prev_namer equals the previous entry's namer.
4. Every rename transaction shows three system transfers (previous namer, treasury, vault) that add up to the price.
5. Every buyback transaction burns exactly the tokens it bought: the mint supply is 1B minus the burned total.
6. The house's key in Config (-) is the only key whose approvals the program accepts.

13. Admin can / cannot

Wind-down: pausing stops new money coming in; everything already in pots keeps being burned by anyone, creators keep being paid.

14. Risks and the honest compromise

• Wallets cache names. Some wallets show a new name within minutes, some within a day; lists such as Jupiter's can take 1-3 days. Helius DAS re-reads the metadata when it changes (every rename writes a new link for that reason); Phantom has no public refresh; DexScreener, Birdeye and Solscan use their own caches. This site reads the chain and is the source of truth.
• Mutable metadata. Rugcheck shows "Mutable metadata" as a mild warning. That is the product: only the pad's program can change it, and only through a paid, attested rename.
• The house is a trust point. It can refuse a name, and a leaked key could approve a bad one (still paying full price). The admin can rotate the key; the on-chain stop-list is the backstop.
• Ugly but legal names. Renaming is open by design; the 1-hour protection and the +10% ladder make each hold more expensive.
• Unofficial coins. Meteora lets anyone open a pool on the pad's bonding-curve config. Such a coin names the pad's partner PDA as its metadata authority, so an explorer or a terminal may show it as a Rename Pad coin, but it was never launched here: no house approval, no launch fee, no fee split, no burn pot, and the pad never renames it. It is never listed on this site, and its address opened here (/lot/<mint>, share links, cards) is marked UNOFFICIAL. Only coins with a Coin ["coin", mint] account are lots.
• Old wallets. Rename transactions use a lookup table (v0 transactions); a wallet without v0 support cannot rename.

15. FAQ

Do I get paid when someone renames after me?

Yes: 40% of their price goes straight to your wallet in their transaction. Nothing to claim.

Can two people buy the same name slot?

No. The rename carries the rename number you saw; the second transaction fails with "someone renamed it first" and costs nothing.

Does the picture change?

No. The site pins new metadata with the same picture; only the name and ticker change.

What if the house refuses my name?

Nothing is sent and nothing is paid. The refusal says why.

Is the coin a pump.fun coin?

No. pump.fun metadata cannot change, so Rename Pad coins launch on a Meteora bonding curve and move to a Meteora DAMM v2 pool. They trade on Jupiter and any router that reads those pools.
