# Bonding Curve **Bonding Curve** Every token launched in the Meme Factory starts with a supply of **1,000,000,000 tokens** locked into the Bonding Curve. Here’s how it works: * **Buying:** As traders scoop up tokens, the price climbs, rewarding early adopters and creating an exciting rush for entry. * **Selling:** When traders sell, the price adjusts downward, maintaining a balance between supply and demand. Once launched, the token becomes tradable on both the Meme Factory and the Hercules DEX, Metis’ flagship DEX. This operation opens up new opportunities for degens to buy, sell, and PUMPe. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
