# Dutch Auction Module

The Dutch Auction Module is the core pricing and distribution mechanism powering all token launches on Info.Launch. Designed to eliminate favoritism, front-running, and insider allocations, this module enables truly permissionless, market-driven token sales that prioritize fairness and transparency over access and influence.

In a Dutch auction, the project sets a starting price, a floor price, and a decay rate. Once the auction begins, the token price decreases continuously over time until one of two conditions is met: either all tokens are sold, or the floor price is reached. This dynamic pricing mechanism allows users to decide when to enter based on their personal valuation and market conviction — creating a live, crowd-driven price discovery process.

The Dutch Auction Module ensures:

* **Fair Access:** There are no whitelists, presales, or preferential treatment. Every participant interacts with the same contract and faces the same conditions.
* **Anti-Bot Architecture:** The time-based price decay reduces the effectiveness of bots and gas wars, offering a level playing field for all users.
* **Real Demand Reflection:** Rather than assuming a token’s value, this model lets real-time user behavior determine it — minimizing the risks of mispricing, overvaluation, or underdistribution.
* **On-Chain Finality:** All bidding logic, execution, and settlement are handled by non-custodial smart contracts, ensuring full transparency and auditability.

Once the auction ends, the Dutch Auction Module seamlessly routes 50% of raised funds and project tokens into the liquidity module, where they are paired and deployed to a decentralized exchange — enabling immediate post-sale trading with locked-in liquidity.

With its emphasis on transparency, market logic, and anti-manipulation design, the Dutch Auction Module represents a foundational shift in how tokens are launched — aligning perfectly with Info.Launch’s vision of creating a decentralized, user-first launch ecosystem for AI-native protocols.
