How Badabing works

Sign in and create your dedicated custodial trading account. Badabing controls its execution signer and submits trades for you. You cannot export its key or sign directly from it. The same account owns your spot positions and BDB stake.

Your badabing wallet is the funding wallet and the default withdrawal wallet. It can hold ETH and sign funding transactions, but its balance is separate from your trading balance. Only USDG enters or leaves the trading account. Withdrawals go to a wallet you have verified: your badabing wallet, or any other wallet you have proven you own by signing for it on Account.

You do not need ETH inside the trading account for spot gas. Badabing pays chain gas upfront, then charges your trading account the USDG network fee you accept in the swap ticket, only if the trade succeeds. The fee varies with the transaction and network conditions and may change when the quote refreshes. Once accepted, that quote’s fee is the amount charged on success, with no adjustment for actual gas cost. Wallet-signed funding still needs wallet gas.

The first-run walkthrough introduces the flow. Account contains profile, funding and referral controls; Folio shows holdings, positions and activity, including pending transactions.

Deposit USDG: open Add funds → Deposit USDG. Choose Robinhood Chain for a direct wallet-to-account transfer, or a supported origin network to bridge into USDG. Check the destination and route costs before confirming.

Convert ETH → USDG: use ETH already in your badabing wallet on Robinhood Chain. The panel shows that wallet’s ETH balance. Max estimates gas and leaves the quoted budget unspent. Preview the estimated and minimum USDG, choose 0.5–5% slippage, then sign with your badabing wallet. Confirmed USDG goes directly to the trading account.

Buy with card: checkout buys USDC on Base into your withdrawal wallet. Return to Deposit USDG to bridge it into the trading account. A completed card purchase alone does not fund trading. Provider availability, checks and charges apply.

Have a welcome-credit link? Open it and sign in to claim. Some invitations include a pre-funded account and a live trader coin; others ask you to verify a quote post first. Welcome credits are deposits, not trading profit.

Spot: search by token name, symbol or address. Supported markets include Pons launch curves and graduated pools, Uniswap pools and aggregated routes across on-chain liquidity. Buy with USDG or sell holdings back to USDG; the ticket shows the route, fees and expected output.

Slippage: your tolerance sets the minimum swap output you accept. A larger tolerance allows a worse price; insufficient output makes the swap fail. Quotes expire. Spot Max reserves the network charge and an affordable first launch cost; those separate charges are not included in the swap minimum.

Charts: candles show indexed executed trades in USDG; the current mark is a separate price observation. Gaps or pending history do not mean a zero price. Neither a candle nor a marginal curve price guarantees the quote for your order size.

Your coin: your first affordable spot trade launches a USDG-paired trader coin on Pons using your handle and profile image. You pay the disclosed launch cost. If funds or the launch reserve are insufficient, trading can proceed and launch waits for a later affordable trade. You do not need to win first. Existing on-chain names and tickers cannot simply be edited.

The Pot: half of Badabing execution fees after any referral commission funds the USDG pot; the other half goes to BDB staking. A cycle ends at the first confirmed block that reaches the displayed threshold, including any overshoot. There is no daily timer. Threshold changes apply to a later cycle.

The crown: traders with launched coins compete on cycle profit and fees paid. Net asset value (NAV) is USDG cash plus marked spot holdings and BDB stake. Cycle profit is end NAV minus start NAV, adjusted for deposits, withdrawals and reward grants. It includes unrealized gains and losses; adding funds or receiving referral commission is not trading profit.

The lowest (PnL rank + 5) × (fee rank + 5) wins. Exact ties go to higher fees, then a deterministic final key. The gross Badabing fee counts toward fee rank. Incomplete pricing or account evidence blocks scoring.

Settlement: 80% of the full pot buys the winner’s existing coin for a grant that vests gradually over seven days. Another 10% buys coin and 10% stays USDG to create permanent Uniswap V4 liquidity. Buying follows the Pons curve and graduates it if needed; liquidity fees go to BDB staking. The next cycle starts with a zero accounted pot once the close block is fixed. Settlement can wait or retry without changing the winner; announcements follow successful settlement.

Check the leaderboard and published cycle evidence for ranks, account values and settlement transactions.

BDB is Badabing’s platform token, launched on Pons with a 1 billion token supply and a 4% creator tax. That tax is separate from Badabing’s 1% spot fee and other venue costs. BDB is a volatile token, not USDG or a guaranteed return.

Buy BDB into your trading account, then use the BDB tab to stake it. Holding unstaked BDB does not earn fee share. Eligible active stake earns a proportional share of half of Badabing execution fees after referral commissions, 40% of trader-coin creator revenue, and crowned-coin liquidity fees. Team and house stake are excluded.

Trader-coin creator revenue splits 50% to that trader’s account, 40% to BDB stakers and 10% to the team, including supported creator fees earned outside Badabing. Folio shows accrued revenue and collection status. Trader coins have no transfer tax; BDB’s 4% creator tax is distinct.

USDG rewards accrue as revenue arrives. Claim to account in the BDB tab without waiting for a cycle to end.

Start unstaking to begin a seven-day cooldown. Cooling BDB earns nothing and cannot be released early. After unlock, choose Finish unstake to return it to the account’s free BDB balance.

Referrals are enabled. An active referral pays the referrer 20% of the friend’s Badabing execution fees in USDG to their trading account, in the same transaction as the fee.

Share your Account referral link or code. A friend can bind a code after signing in; each account has one permanent referrer. Self-referral and rebinding are not allowed. Binding applies to future fees, not past trades.

The commission adds no extra Badabing fee for the friend. For a 1 USDG fee with an active referral, 0.20 goes to the referrer, 0.40 to the pot and 0.40 to BDB staking. Referral income appears in Folio and does not boost crown profit.

Market risk: BDB and trader coins can fall to zero. Thin liquidity, price impact and token taxes can make exits expensive. A crown, graduation or permanent liquidity position does not guarantee a price or an exit for your entire holding.

Locks: Vesting and staking cooldowns restrict access even while token prices fall.

Custody and infrastructure: you rely on Badabing’s account operator, authentication, contracts and services. Pauses, outages, contract bugs, chain problems and third-party venue or bridge failures can delay access or cause losses. USDG also carries issuer and depeg risk.

Transfers and execution: check the asset, chain, destination and quote. Confirmed transactions are irreversible; a pending transfer is not spendable credit. Only trade funds you can afford to lose.
