TAPE Terminal Launchpad
Stop launching beside the market.Launch on top of it.
Every other launcher offers the same handful of base pairs. TAPE lets a project pair against a real market: NVDA, SPCX, AAPL, TSLA or BTC. Liquidity, fees and the chart all denominated in something that already exists.
Announced. Not live yet. No date.
The base pair
Every launchpad pricesyou against crypto.
A stablecoin, the chain’s gas token, or a bluechip. Three choices that are all the same choice, which is why every project’s chart ends up measuring the same market.
Everywhere else
On TAPE
The base pair is the unit a project is measured in.Change it and you change what the chart means.
The mechanism
A market goes in.A new market comes out.
Pick the market you want to build on. What comes back is a pair, quoted in that market, with the liquidity and the fees denominated in it too.
Worked example
ORBIT / NVDA
ORBIT is an invented name for a project that does not exist. What matters is the right-hand side: its treasury fills with NVIDIA rather than with its own supply, and its chart is quoted against NVIDIA rather than against a dollar. Outperforming the base asset becomes visible in the price itself.
Why not NVDAB
Because NVDAB is taken. It is bStocks’ NVIDIA wrapper, live on BNB Chain, and the depth chart further down this page prices it. A launch that reused the symbol would ship into a name that already means something else on the same chain, which is precisely what a registry is for. Both are on the terminal.
Not backed. Paired.
A token launched here is not a claim on the company and TAPE does not issue one. It is a separate token whose market happens to be quoted in NVDA instead of in a stablecoin. NVIDIA’s own market is unaffected by what the project does. The NVDA inside the pool is not: it is what the other side of every trade is paid in, and a project that goes to zero is a pool whose NVDA has left. Anyone describing this as a stock-backed token has described something else.
The flow
Five steps to a live pair.
Choose the base asset
A tokenized stock or BTC. Everything after this inherits it: the pair, the pool, the fees and the chart.
Token details
Ticker, supply, and the network to deploy on. BNB Chain first.
Configure the token
Burns, revenue share, auto LP, fee routing, or your own contract logic. Off is a valid answer for all of them.
Fee allocation
Split the trading fee between the creator, the holders and the liquidity pool. The split is fixed at deploy and visible before you sign.
Review and deploy
The full configuration, the pair it creates and the cost to deploy it, on one screen, before anything is committed on chain.
The mechanics
Your token. Your rules.Fees in the base asset.
The launch contract is configured around the project rather than the other way round. Every one of these is optional, and off is a valid answer to all four.
Burns
A share of every trade is destroyed, so circulating supply falls as volume accumulates.
Revenue share
Protocol revenue routed back to holders instead of to the treasury.
Auto LP
Part of each trade is paired and added to the pool, so depth grows with activity.
Fee routing
The one that only works here. Fees settle in the base asset, so a project launched against NVIDIA banks NVIDIA.
The render shows 1.0%, 0.5%, 2.0% and 0.5%. Those are an example. There is no default schedule, because there is no contract yet.
The hard part
There is no such thing asNVDA on chain.
There are three. Three issuers, three contracts, and depths that are not remotely comparable: on the last reading one of them could not be priced at all. Any launchpad offering a stock as a base pair has to choose between them, and choosing wrong denominates a project’s whole pool in a token nobody is trading.

6 of the 12 tokens claiming these 4 companies are deep enough to denominate anything in. Choosing between them is not a launchpad feature. It is a data problem, and it is the one TAPE already solved: every 165 tokens across 73 companies, read and scored. That layer is the launchpad’s prerequisite, and it is the part that is finished.
Reach
One launchpad.Every market.
Stock and BTC base pairs on BNB Chain first, then across EVM-native networks. The base assets live on BNB Chain, so that is where this starts and where the depth is.
Status
What is actually built.
Everything above this line is a design. Everything below it is running today. Both are true at the same time and the page is not going to blur them.
Running today
The resolution layer
Every stock token on BNB Chain, read, priced and confidence-scored.
The depth test
Which pools are deep enough to quote from, and which are not.
The corporate-action feed
Splits and dividends detected on chain, typed and scored.
The public API
All of it as JSON, free, no key.
Not yet
The launchpad itself
No launch contract is deployed. Nothing on this page can be used today.
Trading through TAPE
The terminal reads the market. It does not execute in it.
Chains past BNB
Base, Arbitrum and Ethereum come after BNB Chain, not alongside it.
A date
There is not one, and this page is not going to invent one.
The hard part was never the launch button.It was knowing which market to point it at.
