Solana launchpad token LAUNCH is now live on MEXC's Meme+ Trading Zone, a listing that extends access to the asset through a centralized exchange interface. MEXC scheduled spot trading for October 26, 2026, at 12:10 UTC, with withdrawals opening six hours later at 18:10 UTC the same day. Exchange users can reach the token without a separate Web3 wallet.

Alongside the listing, the LAUNCH project said it plans to move future launches away from Stonkfun and run its own infrastructure.

Listing Details and the Meme+ Zone

According to MEXC's announcement, LAUNCH runs on Solana under the contract address AhBidGAgv6QbKSWfrSCegGrzFLcBx4E5FNYTKHNQQj6C. That address identifies the listed asset, allowing traders to distinguish it from tokens that share the same name.

MEXC describes Meme+ as a dedicated trading zone for trending on-chain memecoins, a market segment that has also produced sharp session moves such as PEPE's recent 9% four-hour jump. Dedicated memecoin zones have become a common way for centralized exchanges to organize tokens that originate on-chain and reach markets through launchpads rather than traditional project listings. The exchange says the zone is available in the MEXC app under More, then Meme+, and requires app version 5.1.0 or later.

Spot grid trading will open one hour after spot trading begins. Grid tools place buy and sell orders across chosen price intervals.

LAUNCH Plans Independent Infrastructure After Stonkfun Split

In a statement on X, LAUNCH said it would move away from Stonkfun for future launches while keeping its main Stonk pair and continuing to support Stonk pairs. The change covers future launch rails, with existing links remaining in place.

According to the project, talks with Stonkfun about custom token pairings moved slowly. LAUNCH wants tokens launched through its platform to pair directly with LAUNCH, arguing that dependence on another platform limited those features. That framing is the project's own account of the split.

LAUNCH also stated that Stonkfun currently routes launches through LaunchLab, meaning its stack depends on two underlying services. The project plans to introduce its own bonding curves, which use preset formulas to price tokens during launches. Bonding curves are a fixture of on-chain launchpads, and whoever operates them controls how a token is priced from its first trade. LAUNCH says the shift would give it more control over fees, pairings, and infrastructure.

Proposed Fees Connect Launch Activity to Buybacks

LAUNCH outlined a planned 3% fee on launches, split into three equal parts. One percentage point would fund LAUNCH buybacks and burns. Another would support the launched token's ecosystem, and the final point would fund platform development and growth.

A buyback means using revenue to purchase tokens, while a burn retires tokens so they cannot be spent or traded again. Under LAUNCH's plan, launch fees would flow into both mechanisms, meaning platform activity would drive token purchases and supply cuts if the system ships as described. Because the fee is charged per launch, the size of those buybacks and burns would track how much launch activity the platform actually attracts.

The next test is whether LAUNCH delivers the infrastructure and shows how it distributes fees. Direct LAUNCH pairs and verifiable buyback records would demonstrate whether the design works in practice. MEXC has widened access to LAUNCH trading; the project still has to turn its proposed changes into measurable results.
