Bond it
The dev locks at least 0.5 SOL in the vault to launch. No bond, no listing.
Rugged? You get paid back.
Every launch is bonded.
Devs lock a bond to launch. 1% of every safu trade fills an insurance pool. If the dev dumps during the guard window, everyone who bought here gets SOL back, automatically.

How it works
One bond. One pool. Every buyer covered.
Devs put money on the line before they launch. Traders pay a small premium on every trade. If the dev rugs, the guard catches it and pays holders back in SOL.
Every trade pays in
1% of every buy and sell on safu goes to the insurance pool. That's your premium.
The guard watches
For 72 hours, safu watches the dev wallet and every wallet the dev funded before launch.
Rug? Refund.
If the dev side dumps, everyone covered gets SOL back from the bond and the pool. Clean devs get their bond back.

The fine print, drawn
How the cover works
- 1. The dev posts a bondTo launch on safu, the dev sends at least 0.5 SOL to the vault, marked for the coin. It stays locked for the whole guard window.
- 2. Every trade pays the premiumA buy or sell on safu sends 1% to the vault. Your wallet shows both transfers in one approval. That 1% builds the insurance pool.
- 3. The guard watches the devEvery 5 minutes, safu reads the dev wallet and every wallet the dev funded in the 24 hours before launch. They're treated as one side.
- 4. A dump triggers the claimIf the dev side moves or sells half its tokens during the guard window, the coin is marked rugged. Refunds go out after a short review: the bond first, then the pool tops up.
- 5. Clean devs get their bond backWhen the window ends, the guard runs one final check. If it's clean, the bond goes back to the dev and the coin is stamped certified. That record follows the dev to every launch.

Every launch on safu ends one of two ways: certified, with the bond returned, or rugged, with the bond paid out to buyers. Here's who did which.
Policy wording
How safu works
For buyers
Buy on safu and you're covered on that coin for the rest of its guard window. Your cover is the SOL you put in on safu, minus what you took out. If the dev rugs, refunds land in your wallet in SOL. You don't file anything.
For devs
Post a bond, launch, build. If you stay clean through the guard window, the bond comes back and your record shows a certified launch. Buyers check that record before they buy.
For everyone
The vault is a public wallet. Every bond, premium, refund and bond return is a transfer you can check on Solscan, marked with a memo that names the coin.

What counts as a rug?
During the guard window, the dev side moving or selling half of the most tokens it held. Or the price falling 80% from its peak while the dev side sold a fifth. The dev side is the launching wallet plus every wallet it sent SOL to in the 24 hours before launch.
How much do I get back?
Everyone covered gets the same share of their loss. The budget is the dev's bond, plus a top-up from the pool of up to one more bond (capped at 10% of the pool) when at least 3 wallets are covered. Nobody gets more than they put in, or more than the per-wallet limit.
Am I covered if I bought on pump.fun?
No. Cover only applies to trades made on safu, because that's where the 1% premium is paid. Selling cancels cover for what you took out, and so does selling or moving the tokens somewhere else: when a rug is detected, safu reads every covered wallet and scales its refund by how much of what it bought here it still holds.
I bought right before the rug was caught. Am I covered?
Cover counts trades made before the guard's last clean check, which runs every 5 minutes. A buy in the few minutes between that check and the one that catches the dump isn't covered, so nobody can buy a coin that's already been dumped and claim a refund.
Why is there a review window?
Refunds wait a few hours after a rug is detected, so the operator can hold a false trigger, like a dev moving tokens to a new wallet they told everyone about. Holds and releases are shown on the claim.
Can a dev farm the pool with fake buyers?
The pool only tops up when several wallets are covered, each wallet's refund is capped, and the pool never pays more than 10% of itself on one rug. A dev who rugs their own fake buyers loses their bond to do it.
What does it cost?
Launching costs the network fee, rent and your bond, which you get back if you stay clean. Trading costs pump.fun's fee, PumpPortal's 0.5% and the 1% premium.
Is this a guarantee?
No. Cover is limited to the bond and the pool rules above, and the guard can miss rugs it can't see, like a dev using wallets they never funded directly. Trade only what you can afford to lose.
Who runs the vault?
