How it works
The short version
Someone launches a coin for a streamer. People buy and sell it. Each trade generates money and fees, and all of that is set aside for that streamer. Once that value reaches over $20, it buys a Twitch gift card, and the gift card is spent on gifted subs for their channel.
The streamer doesn't need a wallet, an account here, or any crypto knowledge. Subs just show up on their channel.
Where the money actually goes
Coins here are launched on pump.fun, which pays a percentage of every trade to whoever is set as the coin's creator. Normally that's the person who made the coin. Here, it's set to a wallet that belongs to the streamer instead.
Every coin made for the same streamer points at the same wallet, so if five different people launch five coins for one streamer, all five pay into one pot. That wallet address is shown on their page before any coin exists, and you can open it in a block explorer and check the balance yourself at any time.
The split
90% goes to the streamer, and 10% goes to the treasury.
The treasury pays for what makes the whole thing work — the servers and the network fees on every collection. Whatever is left over goes toward buybacks.
It's a single wallet (EaDeEnxynJWhZ7ikUJSMGBPFUTVkKWQKHNmQ44KaJ5wH), and the 10% moves into it in its own transaction every time money is collected. So you can open it up and add together every dollar that has ever gone in or out, any time you like.
The steps
A job runs every 10 minutes and does this for every streamer, with no one in the loop:
- 1
It earns
Every trade on the coin adds to the streamer's pot automatically.
- 2
It builds up
Once the pot reaches $20, it's enough to buy a Twitch gift card.
- 3
We buy
A Twitch gift card is bought with it the moment it's ready.
- 4
They get subs
The card is spent on gifted subs for that streamer's channel.
Why you sometimes see money waiting
Gift cards only come in fixed amounts — right now the smallest is USD $20, going up in $20 steps. So if a streamer's pot holds $34, we buy a $20 card and the remaining $14 stays in their pot for next time.
That leftover is shown on their page as on the way. It is never moved anywhere else, never swept to us, and never expires. It just waits until it's enough to buy the next card.
Technical details
For anyone who wants the specifics. Coins are launched on pump.fun with SOL as the quote token. The fee recipient is set through the creator field on the create_v2 instruction, which pump allows to differ from the signing wallet. Fees accrue to the creator vault PDA at ["creator-vault", creator], which is why every coin for one streamer aggregates into a single balance. Collection uses collect_creator_fee, which is permissionless — no signature from the streamer's wallet is needed to sweep it, so our collector holds no authority over their funds. The creator fee is 0.30% of each trade on the bonding curve, dropping to as low as 0.05% by market cap tier after a coin graduates to PumpSwap. The 10% treasury split is a separate transfer executed in the same cycle, so it is independently auditable. Gift card denominations are read from Bitrefill's live product catalog rather than hardcoded, because their API rejects values that aren't real packages.
