# Robinhood Chain

Source: https://ballistic.app/docs/robinhood/

Launching and trading on Robinhood Chain with Ballistic: Pons launches in Block-0 or Reserve mode, paid in ETH, and what each tool does there.

On Robinhood Chain you launch on **Pons** and pay in ETH. Your EVM wallets work here too: import one in the [Wallet Manager](https://ballistic.app/docs/wallets/wallet-manager/) with its hex private key.

## Launch [#launch]

| Launchpad | Modes | You pay in |
|---|---|---|
| Pons | Block-0, Reserve | ETH |

- [Reserve mode](https://ballistic.app/docs/launch/reserve-mode/) walks through the full launch flow on Pons: one buy in the launch block, with your supply parked in a reserve only you release.
- [Launch modes](https://ballistic.app/docs/launch/launch-modes/) compares Reserve with Block-0.
- On Robinhood Chain, a Pons Reserve buy that completes the curve graduates the token in the launch block. See [Over-the-curve launch](https://ballistic.app/docs/launch/graduation/).
- [Community takeover](https://ballistic.app/docs/launch/cto/) also works on Robinhood Chain tokens, buying in ETH.

## Fees [#fees]

Launching on Pons carries no Ballistic fee: nothing on funding and nothing on the launch. Pons charges a creation fee paid by your deployer wallet and a curve fee on every buy and sell. Withdrawing your ETH proceeds from a worker wallet carries the standard 5%. See [Fees](https://ballistic.app/docs/reference/fees/).

## After launch [#after-launch]

- [Withdraw](https://ballistic.app/docs/after-launch/withdraw/): withdrawals from several wallets settle together in one atomic transaction.
- Sell from the [sell panel](https://ballistic.app/docs/trade/sell-panel/). On a Reserve launch, each [DCA](https://ballistic.app/docs/trade/dca/) sell releases its slice from the reserve.
- [Referral](https://ballistic.app/docs/earn/referrals/) earnings on Robinhood Chain build up as their own claimable balance.
- [Bubblemaps](https://ballistic.app/docs/after-launch/bubblemaps/) is not available for Robinhood Chain tokens.

## What can go wrong [#what-can-go-wrong]

| Symptom | Likely cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| The Bubblemaps tab shows nothing for your token | Bubblemaps does not cover Robinhood Chain | Nothing to fix: Bubblemaps maps tokens on Solana, BSC, Base and Ethereum only. |
| Funds sent but nothing arrives | The destination address is not on Robinhood Chain | Double-check the address and chain before you confirm. See [Withdraw](https://ballistic.app/docs/after-launch/withdraw/). |
