How it works
Every trade pays fees. The fees pay back the holders who are underwater — in gold, every 15 minutes, until your money's covered. No guesswork, no promises of profit, just a rule you can check on-chain.
Free Ride is a coin with a gold safety net. Buy it, hold it, and if the price drops below what you paid, the trading fees start paying you back — a share of gold every drop, until you're whole again. Then you ride free.
Every buy and every sell pays a 6% fee. Most of it — 5% — is set aside as a pot of gold. (The rest: 0.7% runs the engine, 0.3% is the launchpad's base fee.) Nothing is pre-funded and nothing is printed; the pot is only ever real fees from real trading.
Every 15 minutes that pot is shared out to the wallets that are underwater and still holding — worth less right now than they paid. It's paid straight to your wallet, on-chain, in gold.
Your slice each drop is capped at 33% of your loss. So at the very fastest — when fees are flowing hard — that's three drops, 45 minutes, and you're back to break-even.
That's the best case, not a promise. When trading is quieter the pot is smaller, each drop pays less, and it takes more drops — maybe eight or nine, maybe more. That's fine. The point is you keep getting gold every drop, for as long as you're underwater, until your loss is fully covered. Then the payments simply stop — you're whole, and anything above that is profit. You never get paid more than you lost.
So don't panic if your first drop is small. It isn't the whole refund — it's the first instalment. As long as Free Ride keeps trading, the fees keep coming back to the holders who are down.
Any route counts — Pons, GMGN, FOMO, BasedBot, OKX, an aggregator, a bot or a terminal. However you bought, if you paid for the tokens the engine counts it. It does not matter where you bought.
But you have to have bought them. Tokens someone simply sends to your wallet don't count — there's no purchase behind them, so they earn nothing. That stops anyone farming the pot by shuffling tokens between wallets.
Buying more is always fine — it just changes your average. All you have to do is hold.
Every drop is one transaction on-chain, and the full list of who got paid is published as a ledger file with its hash written on-chain. The wallet checker runs the exact same code that decides the payouts — so what it shows you is what you'll be paid, to the token. Nothing is hidden, nothing is done by hand. Think you were missed? The checker shows you the transaction and the reason.
