FAQ

Read AscendLaunch FAQ answers about KNTQ, supported Elysium pairs, creator fees, HYPE staking, NFTs, points, token launches, rewards and protocol economics.

Current status: token launches and trading on USDC, HYPE and KNTQ pairs, creator fees, coin support, Holder Rewards and Buyback coins are documented as live on Elysium mainnet. Staking, the HYPE Points Program, Ascend NFTs, the Ascend Points Program and ecosystem-token buybacks are documented as not live yet.

Does AscendLaunch have a separate token?

No. The documentation states that AscendLaunch has adopted KNTQ as its protocol token. There is no separate AscendLaunch token.

Which pairings are supported?

Current Elysium mainnet launches are documented around USDC, HYPE and KNTQ pairs. Other categories can depend on future or approved pool configurations.

Can deployers choose creator-fee usage?

Yes. The launch configuration can route the creator allocation to direct recipient payouts, Holder Rewards, Buyback activity or a custom combination. Protocol and coin-support allocations remain separate.

How are HYPE staking rewards designed?

The documented model uses kHYPE deposited into the AscendLaunch vault. Ecosystem-token purchases funded by attributable staking yield are separate from HYPE Points Program rewards.

Do NFTs automatically give KNTQ?

No. An activated NFT is documented as granting access to earn Ascend Points through qualifying activity; points are then used for KNTQ according to seasonal rules and available budget.
