Five metals

Karat is a launchpad. Pick your metals and set the mix in percent: 60% gold, 25% silver, 15% platinum. Every creator fee buys that mix on-chain and locks it in your coin's reserve.

Why Karat
Most coins are backed by nothing. A Karat coin is backed by the metal its creator picked, in the exact percentages they picked: Au gold, Ag silver, Pt platinum, Pd palladium, Cu copper. Every trade adds more.
How it works

A launchpad where the fees buy metal.

I

Launch your coin

Name, ticker, image. Karat launches it on Solana with one signature.

II

Set the mix in percent

Up to five metals, any split that adds up to 100%. The mix is signed into the launch and can't be changed later.

III

Every fee buys the mix

Each creator fee is swapped through Jupiter into real tokenized metal, split by your percentages, and locked in the coin's reserve.

IV

Holders own the reserve

The reserve backs every token. Burn your tokens and you redeem your share of the metal.

The mix

Set the percentages. Watch the bar change.

Turn metals on and off, drag the sliders, or start from a classic alloy. The numbers underneath are live Jupiter quotes: what one SOL of creator fees buys right now, split your way.

The metals

Real tokenized metal, on Solana.

Each metal is bound to a token that already trades on Solana. You pick which one when you launch. Route status is checked live against Jupiter.

MetalTokenWhat it isSolana mintPriceRoute

If a metal has no route yet, its share of every fee waits in USDC inside the reserve and buys the metal the moment a route opens. Issuers are listed as examples of where the metal comes from; Karat isn't affiliated with them. Some of these tokens are not available to US persons.
