Vamps pay the original.
Launch a coin on Solana. If it vamps a coin that is already here, its launch has to buy 0.5 SOL of that coin and burn it first.
Every coin has a family
The first coin with a picture, a name or a story is the original. Every vamp of it joins its family, and pays to get in.
The first one is the original
Launch something new and you start a family. Yours is the coin every vamp has to pay.
Vamps pay 0.5 SOL
A vamp's launch buys 0.5 SOL of the original and burns it, in the same step that creates the vamp.
Three live coins, then it's full
A family holds 3 live coins. A slot opens when one goes 72 hours without a trade.
Every vamp pays, on the record
The tribute is part of the vamp's own launch, so there is no way to skip it. Each one is public: the SOL spent, the tokens burned, and the family the vamp joined.
See the coinsHow a vamp gets caught
Every launch is checked against every coin on the pad before anything is signed.

The same picture
Even cropped, flipped, recoloured or saved again.
The same ticker
$PEPE, PEP3, PEPE2 and look-alike letters all count as one ticker.
The same name
Spacing, filler words and one-letter changes don't make it new.
The same story
A reworded description, or the same tweet posted again under a new link.
The same idea, redrawn
When nothing matches exactly, an AI judge looks at it next to every coin on the pad.
Launched around the pad
Anything put on Sterling's curve without the check is marked unsanctioned and never joins a family.
$STERLING, the first original
Sterling's own coin launches on Sterling, under the same rules as every coin on it.
1,000,000,000
The whole supply. The mint is fixed, so there will never be more.
All on the curve
Every token is sold on the curve or goes into the Meteora pool it graduates to.
Graduates at 420 SOL
The market cap where it leaves the curve for a Meteora pool, like every coin here.
Every launch burns it
After Meteora's cut, half of every launch fee buys $STERLING and burns it. The more coins launch on Sterling, the less $STERLING there is.
Its vamps pay it
Like any original, a vamp of $STERLING has to buy 0.5 SOL of it and burn it before it can launch.
Every burn is public
Each burn is a Solana transaction anyone can look up.
