FAQ
What the vault will and will not do.
+Is an attention token equity?
No. It is not a share, not a revenue right, and not a claim on the company, its assets, or a future sale. Trading it is not an investment in the startup.
+Who can take money out of the vault?
Nobody withdraws it to themselves. The only spend is a marketplace booking. The payee must be the seller’s payout address, the amount must be the listed price, and the payee cannot be the founder.
+What is live, and what is simulated?
Connecting a wallet and approving a pump.fun create are live. That transaction creates a real mint, lists it on pump.fun, and spends SOL from your wallet for rent and the signature. ATTN does not hold the key and does not pay. Trading that coin happens on pump.fun. The marketing vault, its ledger, and marketplace bookings on this site stay simulated. Pump.fun creator fees go to a wallet that can withdraw them. They are not locked, and a trade on pump.fun does not fill the vault here.
+Why sign with a wallet at all?
The signature binds a founder address to a launch intent, the same way a later program would require the founder to authorize the listing. Today that intent is stored locally, next to a label that says settlement is simulated.
+Are the startups and payouts real?
No. Northline, Kettle, Paper Route, Lumen Desk, Sable, and Halve are sample fiction. Marketplace sellers and their payout addresses are sample data for the ledger. Do not send SOL to them.
+Is there an ATTN platform token?
No. There is no official mint and no contract address. One will not be invented here.
+How would a real program fit later?
The fee math and spend rules live in lib/program, separate from the page. A program named attn_vault would use a per-mint vault whose withdraw authority is the program, not the founder. Its instructions are launch, record_fee, book_campaign. record_fee would move the whole fee in. book_campaign would pay an allowlisted seller or fail. A binary of about 80–400 KiB would lock roughly 0.6–2.9 SOL as rent, and about twice that while the deploy buffer is open. Each later launch would rent a mint and a vault, on the order of 0.01–0.03 SOL, plus a signature fee near 0.000005 SOL. None of that has been spent. Set NEXT_PUBLIC_ATTN_PROGRAM_ID only when that client exists. Until then the on-chain client refuses to build a transaction, and mints, vault balances, fees, and payouts stay simulated.
+Who is ATTN affiliated with?
Nobody named in the footer. ATTN is an independent product. It is not affiliated with Forma, Farhaj Mayan, the Solana Foundation, or Colosseum.
