PinkSale

PinkSale is a decentralized, permissionless launchpad protocol that lets any developer or crypto project raise funds and launch a token without writing a single line of code. Launched in 2021, the platform addresses one of the most persistent friction points in early-stage token issuance: the gap between a team with an idea and the technical complexity of conducting a public token sale, locking liquidity, and listing on a decentralized exchange. PinkSale compresses that entire workflow into a guided, no-code interface accessible to founders at every experience level.

How It Works

The core user journey on PinkSale moves through three stages: token creation, sale configuration, and post-sale DEX listing.

Token creation supports several formats beyond a standard SPL token, including liquidity generator tokens, baby tokens with automatic buyback mechanics, and deflationary token structures. Founders who already have a token can skip this step and bring an existing contract directly into the launchpad flow.

Sale configuration is where project owners choose their fundraising structure. PinkSale offers four distinct sale types:

• Presale: Owners set a presale rate (tokens per 1 native coin), a soft cap (minimum raise, at least 25% of hard cap), a hard cap (maximum raise), per-wallet contribution limits, and a liquidity percentage to be locked on a DEX at close.
• Fair Launch: No presale rate or hard cap—all participants receive tokens at the same effective price. Popular for community-driven projects that want to avoid the optics of a privileged presale round.
• Subscription Sale: A fixed-price, pro-rata allocation model where participants commit funds and tokens are distributed proportionally based on total demand.
• Private Sale: An allowlisted raise for vetted investors before any public round.

When a presale finalizes on Solana, PinkSale can automatically route the designated liquidity percentage into a Raydium AMM V4 pool, listing the token with a single on-chain transaction. Alternatively, project owners can opt for manual listing and handle their own liquidity deployment—though the platform warns this path gives owners full control of raised funds and carries higher risk for investors.

Solana Integration

PinkSale added Solana as part of its multi-chain expansion and the chain remains an active part of the product. Integration uses Phantom wallets and routes post-presale liquidity to Raydium by default. The fee structure on Solana is 4 SOL for launchpad creation plus 5% of total SOL raised; token minting costs 1 SOL. Solana-specific parameters follow SPL token conventions—presale rates are denominated in SOL, soft cap must be at least 25% of the hard cap, and the minimum liquidity requirement starts at 25% (lower than the 51% floor applied on most EVM chains). As of late July 2026, @pinkecosystem continues to actively promote live Solana presales alongside its BNB Chain listings.

Key Features

PinkLock is the platform's standalone token and liquidity locking tool, available free on most chains. Locked LP tokens can be verified on-chain by any investor. Liquidity locking is enforced at the smart contract level during presale creation and is a prerequisite for the SAFU badge.

Pink Anti-Bot protection is built into presale contracts to block automated sniping bots from acquiring disproportionate token allocations at the moment of listing.

Badge System: PinkSale uses layered credentialing to help investors distinguish project quality. Eight distinct badges can appear on a listing:

• KYC: Project owner identity verified for $700 (24-48 hour process)
• Audit: Contract reviewed by a partner firm—tiers range from budget auditors to CertiK and PeckShield
• SAFU: The highest safety designation, requiring KYC completion, team doxxing, a contract audit, buy/sell tax capped at 10%, and a minimum 365-day liquidity lock
• Doxx, AMA, KOL, Business, and Based provide additional transparency signals

The platform explicitly states that no badge constitutes an endorsement or guarantee of a project's legitimacy.

Affiliate Program: Project owners can enable referral rewards of up to 5% of presale proceeds. Referrers generate unique links; payouts distribute proportionally after the sale closes.

Platform Scale and Market Position

As of mid-2026, PinkSale has facilitated over 29,700 projects raising more than $1.3 billion from approximately 3.4 million participants. Total value locked across all chains sits at roughly $142 million, with BNB Chain accounting for approximately 92% of that figure. DefiLlama ranks PinkSale as the number-one launchpad protocol by TVL globally, holding around 66% of the entire tracked launchpad category. Binance Foundation has independently recognized it as the top token launchpad, and the platform has participated in Binance's Liquidity Rewards program.

PINKSALE Token

The platform's native governance and reward token has a total supply capped at 100,000 PINKSALE. Allocation uses long vesting schedules designed to align long-term incentives: the team holds 16% vesting between months 13 and 45, marketing receives 8% with a 23-month vest starting at month four, and 40% is reserved for a community rewards program distributed over eight years. Six percent is reserved for exchange liquidity, and 4% was allocated to the public round with a graduated release schedule.

Security and Transparency

PinkSale operates as permissionless infrastructure—it does not curate which projects can list, which lowers the barrier to entry but also means quality varies significantly across listings. The badge and verification systems are the primary mechanism for helping investors evaluate different levels of project accountability. Anti-bot protection and liquidity lock parameters are enforced at the smart contract level during presale creation. The platform monitors its trending algorithm for manipulation and explicitly flags third-party paid "trending" services as scams. A support team of 15-plus members operates via Telegram to assist project owners through the presale setup process.

Ecosystem Fit

For Solana, PinkSale occupies a distinct niche as an accessible on-ramp for community-initiated and grassroots projects seeking structured fundraising with automatic Raydium liquidity creation. This positions it for the long tail of Solana token launches—community tokens, early-stage experiments, and projects that need a credible fundraising mechanism without the selective vetting of curated launchpads. The combination of low technical barriers, embedded liquidity locking, and optional KYC and audit pathways offers a baseline of structure that unassisted launches lack, while leaving the final judgment on quality to investors doing their own research.
