the uncomfortable part first. politic is a launchpad. Each launch names a US political party or PAC destination before the coin goes live, and the destination is carried into the public token directory so the intended political destination is clear.

01overview

Every coin launched on politic.fun starts with a selected political destination. The launch metadata records the official party or PAC site, and the token directory keeps that destination visible after launch.

03the language

Rules are stored as data and shown as one line each. The fingerprint is the first 12 hex characters of the SHA-256 of the rulebook’s canonical JSON. It is written into the coin’s pump.fun description at launch, so anyone can check the rulebook on the coin’s page against it.

Holders are the largest token accounts on-chain, minus the bonding curve, pools (program-owned accounts) and the coin’s own wallet. There is no sell action.

07custody

Each launch records its selected political destination alongside the coin metadata. Wallet and mint handling remain part of the existing Solana launch infrastructure.

08fees and the chest

When at least 0.003 SOL of creator fees is waiting, the engine claims it into the coin’s wallet. politic takes 5% of each claim. The rest, minus a 0.015 SOL gas reserve, is the chest that rules spend from. Swaps go through PumpPortal’s local transaction API, which adds its own 0.5% to each trade.

POLITICAL DATA SURFACES

The home page now uses two lightweight public feeds: political headlines from NYT Politics, Politico, The Hill and BBC, plus live political probabilities from Polymarket. Both panels fail soft when a source is unavailable and retry automatically.
