One project at a time. A 3-day ETH raise decides who leads it — and everyone who contributed gets a vote on what it becomes.

What's next
The fund-pooling, voting and vesting contract described above is still in design and review — it hasn't gone live with real funds. This page switches from preview to a real round the moment one opens.
Projects
BigPad runs one project at a time, so there's a single round to watch rather than a list to sift through. When a round is announced, it'll show up here and on Home.
Governance
Every bidder in a raise — not just the top bidder — gets a vote on the project's identity, weighted by their share of the total raise. Five things get decided this way:
- Coin name
- Ticker
- Logo
- Roadmap
- Launch date
Voting runs alongside the 3-day funding window and closes when the raise does.
My Position
Once a round is live, connecting your wallet here will show what you've contributed and your share of the raise so far.
Leaderboard
Ranks every contributor in the current raise by ETH committed, with each one's share of the total.
Airdrop
Two holder benefits are planned, both still being worked out in detail:
$HOME / HOMEPAD synergy — existing HOMEPAD holders are planned to get an advantage when a BigPad round opens.
BigPad airdrop — a separate airdrop for BigPad participants and/or HOMEPAD holders is also planned.
Treasury
Every round splits its raised ETH three ways: 80% becomes LP liquidity immediately, 15% goes to the confirmed lead (vested), and 5% goes to BigPad's own treasury.
That 5%, together with BigPad's own trading fees once projects are live, is meant to fund BigPad's own buyback-and-burn and promotion — the same loop repeating project after project rather than a one-off.
How it works
First round, actually built: the recipient wallet starts a 72-hour timer. Anyone can contribute ETH while it's open, and withdraw their own contribution back any time before it closes — no lock-in. When it closes, the balance splits 80% recipient / 5% platform / 15% treasury automatically. None of the bidding, leadership, or voting described below is on-chain yet in this round — see Safety design.
One project. A 3-day ETH raise decides who leads it and how it's split. Every contributor votes on what it becomes.
The raise
A single project raises ETH for 3 days. Every bid is recorded with the bidder's address and amount — this is what determines both voting weight and the final payout split.
Leadership
Whoever bid the most becomes the project lead. Every bidder — not just the lead — gets a vote, weighted by their share of the total raise, on the project's actual identity: coin name, ticker, logo, roadmap, and launch date.
Launch
When the raise ends, the pooled ETH splits three ways: 80% becomes real LP liquidity immediately (not a bonding curve that snipers can race from zero), 5% goes to the BigPad platform, and 15% is reserved for the confirmed lead. Dexscreener listing and a 100x boost are paid for by the platform, not the lead.
The 12-hour checkpoint
The lead has 12 hours after the raise ends to publish the project's confirmed details plus an official X account and at least one more community channel (X Community, Telegram, or Discord — a website is optional but encouraged). Miss it, and leadership passes to the second-highest bidder, who gets the same 12 hours.
Getting paid
The confirmed lead's 15% doesn't land all at once. It vests 3% per day over 5 days. If the lead stops running the project, whatever hasn't vested yet returns to the original bidders, split proportionally to what they put in.
Economics
First round, actually built: 80% recipient wallet / 5% platform wallet / 15% treasury wallet, paid directly — no LP liquidity or vesting yet. The split below is the longer-term vision this round doesn't implement.
The platform's 5%, plus BigPad's own trading fees once projects are live, fund BigPad's own buyback-and-burn and promotion — the same loop, project after project, rather than a one-off.
Holder benefits: participation in a project with real liquidity from block one (not a race against bots on an empty curve), plus a planned $HOME synergy — existing HOMEPAD holders get an advantage in BigPad, details to come.
Safety design
This page is honest about what's still being worked out. Two things had to change before this was safe to build at all.
Problem: instant lump-sum payout
The original version paid 15% of the entire raise to the lead's wallet the moment the 12-hour checklist was met — an X account and one social channel. That's a low bar for a large, immediate payout: someone could self-fund a majority bid, clear the checklist in minutes, and walk away with most of their own contribution back plus a share of everyone else's.
Fix: the 15% vests 3% per day over 5 days instead of paying out immediately.
Problem: what happens if the lead vests some, then disappears?
Vesting alone doesn't fully close the gap — someone could still collect a few days' worth of tranches and stop. The remaining, unvested amount needs a defined, automatic path back to bidders rather than sitting stuck or depending on a human deciding "this looks abandoned."
Current proposal: the lead must check in on-chain periodically (roughly every 48 hours). Miss a check-in, and the project is automatically marked abandoned — no admin, no vote, no judgment call — and everything left unvested returns to the original bidders, split proportionally to what they put in.
What's still not built
The fund-pooling, auction, voting, vesting, and clawback logic described on this page is a brand-new smart contract — not a reuse of HOMEPAD's existing, already-deployed factories the way most of this site works. Code that pools money from multiple people carries real risk if it has a bug. It is not going live with real funds without a real security review first.
FAQ
Is this live yet?
No. Everything on this page describes the design. No round is open and no contract is deployed with real funds yet.
What if I'm not the top bidder — do I get anything back?
Yes — every bidder gets a vote on the project's identity, and if the lead is ever marked abandoned, unvested funds return to all original bidders proportionally, not just the lead.
Can the lead just take the money and never build anything?
That's exactly the failure mode this is designed against — see Safety design. The payout is small and slow at first (3%/day), and stops automatically without a check-in.
Why ETH and not a Stock Token or $HOME?
Not decided yet. ETH is the starting design; other quote assets may follow once the core mechanism is live and tested.
