$WHALES
Two roles, decided at your first buy. Spend at least 0.69 ETH and you're a whale — sell whenever you want. Spend less and you're a shrimp — capped to 1% of your bag per transaction, forever.
LIVE COUNTS
SHRIMPS
—
Bought less than 0.69 ETH on at least one swap. Capped to 1% of their balance per sell.
WHALES
—
Bought 0.69 ETH or more on at least one swap. No selling restriction — they earned the role.
THE RULES
WHALE RULE
Spend ≥ 0.69 ETH on a single buy and you join the whale set. The role is sticky — it never expires, never gets revoked. No sell limit.
SHRIMP RULE
If your first buy was under 0.69 ETH, every sell you ever make through the v4 pool is capped to 1% of your pre-swap WHALES balance. Try to dump more and the swap reverts.
THE CONCEPT
A Uniswap v4 afterSwap hook is wired to the WHALES/ETH pool. It records every swap and tags the buyer based on what they paid.
Get tagged once and the flag is permanent. A small bag holder stays a shrimp. A real holder stays a whale. The market remembers.
Shrimps can only release 1% per tx. The exit is a slow dribble, not a flood. Holders are protected from cascading exits by design.
THE TAKEAWAY
Buy small, sell slow. Buy real, sell free.
Diamond hands aren't a meme here. They're encoded in the bytecode. Every shrimp that tries to dump finds the door is 1% wide. Every whale walks through it on the first try.
