Simulate a $25K Ethereum Token Launch with a 70/30 Split
The 70/30 split at $25K is a common configuration for mid-range Ethereum launches: $17,500 funds the liquidity pool and $7,500 goes toward token acquisition. This balance point gives the pool enough depth to absorb small retail trades without extreme slippage while still securing a meaningful initial token position. On Ethereum mainnet, $17,500 of liquidity is sufficient for a Uniswap V2 pair to appear on most DEX aggregators and tracking sites.

Frequently Asked Questions
At $17,500 liquidity on Ethereum, what trade size causes 5% slippage?
In a constant product AMM, 5% price impact occurs when the trade size is approximately 5% of the pool reserve. With $17,500 on the USD side, that threshold is around $875. The simulator calculates precise slippage for any trade size against this specific pool configuration.
How does gas cost affect the $7,500 acquisition budget on Ethereum?
Gas costs are not directly modeled in the AMM simulation — they vary with network congestion. However, at typical Ethereum gas prices, a single swap might cost $5-20. With $7,500 for acquisition, gas is a small fraction. The simulator focuses on the AMM math: how many tokens $7,500 buys and at what effective price.
Should I launch on Ethereum L1 or Base with $25K?
Both chains use the same AMM math, so pool dynamics are identical. The decision comes down to audience: Ethereum L1 reaches institutional traders and established DeFi protocols, while Base taps into Coinbase retail users. Compare the ethereum-25k-70-30 and base-25k-70-30 scenarios side by side.
