$SLOTH

1.0 Introduction

SLOTH is a meme token built on BNB Chain that combines the irreverent spirit of meme culture with real on-chain utility. In a market dominated by tokens that promise the moon and deliver nothing, SLOTH takes a different approach: slow, steady, and verifiable.

The philosophy is simple. While other tokens race to pump and dump, SLOTH rewards patience. A transparent multi-stage presale with oracle-based USD pricing, a staking system offering up to 150% APY from a pre-funded reward pool, and a referral program that pays both sides — all secured by auditable smart contracts with zero transfer tax and no ability to mint additional tokens.

The SLOTH contract is deliberately ownerless — once deployed, nobody can alter, freeze, or inflate the token. The presale and staking contracts use OpenZeppelin's battle-tested libraries and follow the Checks-Effects-Interactions pattern throughout. The code is open source and verified on BSCScan.

2.0 Token Overview

The token contract is a clean ERC-20 implementation: no reflection mechanics, no fee-on-transfer, no hidden admin functions. The entire supply is minted once to the treasury at deployment. After that, the contract is immutable — there is no mint() function, no selfdestruct, and no owner role.

3.0 Tokenomics

100 billion SLOTH tokens are allocated across six categories, each serving a specific function in the ecosystem.

Presale Fund Breakdown

The 40B presale allocation is structured as three sub-pools within the presale contract:

• 30B — Base token allocation across all presale stages
• 10B — Bonus reserve (tier bonuses, promo codes, referee bonuses)
• 2B — Referral commission reserve (from marketing allocation)

Total tokens sent to the presale contract: 42B. Any unsold or unused tokens are recoverable by the owner after the sale finalizes.

4.0 Presale Mechanism

The SLOTH presale uses a multi-stage pricing model where the token price increases automatically as each stage sells out. Pricing is denominated in USD using a Chainlink oracle, so buyers pay a consistent USD-equivalent price regardless of native coin volatility.

How It Works

1. Connect your wallet to the SLOTH website on BNB Chain
2. Choose your amount — pay with BNB, USDT, or USDC
3. Receive tokens escrowed in the contract, claimable after the sale ends
4. Claim or stake your tokens once the presale finalizes successfully

Stage Pricing

Each stage has a fixed allocation and a price per token. When a stage sells out, the price moves to the next tier. Purchases that span two stages are split-priced — you get tokens at each stage's rate.

Oracle-Based Pricing

The presale contract uses a Chainlink V3 price feed (8-decimal USD precision) to convert native coin payments to USD in real time. The oracle requires:

• Price greater than zero
• Data freshness within 1 hour (3600 seconds)
• Complete round data

Stablecoin payments (USDT, USDC) bypass the oracle and are normalized to 8-decimal precision automatically, supporting any decimal standard.

Caps & Limits

Escrow & Refund Guarantee

All funds are held in escrow within the presale contract. Tokens are not transferred during the sale — they accumulate as claimableTokens and are released only after successful finalization.

If the presale fails to reach the soft cap by the deadline, all buyers receive a full refund of their native coins and stablecoins. No tokens are distributed.

Finalization

Anyone can trigger finalization once any of these conditions are met:

• The sale duration expires
• The hard cap is reached
• All stages are completely sold out

The contract marks the sale as successful if total raised ≥ soft cap, enabling token claims. Otherwise, refunds are enabled.

Slippage Protection

The buy() function accepts a minTokensOut parameter. If the calculated tokens (including bonuses) fall below this threshold — for example, due to a stage boundary crossing — the transaction reverts.

5.0 Bonus System

SLOTH offers multiple bonus mechanisms that stack together, with a combined cap to prevent pool depletion.

Volume Tier Bonuses

Larger purchases earn a percentage bonus on top of the base token amount:

Promotional Bonus Codes

The team can create bonus codes (e.g. SLOTH2026) that grant an extra percentage on purchase. Each code has:

• A configurable bonus percentage (e.g. +10%)
• Optional maximum number of uses
• Stored as a keccak256 hash on-chain (the code itself is never stored in plaintext)

Combined Bonus Cap

Example: A buyer purchases $6,032 worth of SLOTH with a +10% bonus code and a referral link:

• Tier bonus: +20%
• Code bonus: +10%
• Referee bonus: +3%
• Total: 33% → within the 35% cap → full bonus applied

6.0 Referral Program

SLOTH incentivizes organic growth through a dual-reward referral system. Both the referrer and the new buyer benefit from using a referral link.

Anti-Gaming Protections

• No self-referral: the referrer address must differ from the buyer
• Locked on first use: once a buyer uses a referral link, their referredBy is permanent
• Single-level only: no multi-level (MLM) structure — only direct referrals earn commission
• Referrer must not be address(0)

Tracking

The contract tracks per referrer: total referral count, total USD volume referred, and total tokens earned. This data powers the on-chain leaderboard displayed on the website.

7.0 Staking System

SLOTH staking follows a MasterChef-style emission model where rewards come from a pre-funded pool of 20 billion tokens. This is not inflationary — rewards are real tokens set aside at launch, not minted on demand.

Two Operating Modes

Key Mechanics

Pre-Listing Lock

During the presale phase, claims and compounds are locked. Rewards accrue in real time but cannot be withdrawn until the owner calls setClaimsUnlocked(true) at listing. This prevents pre-listing sell pressure.

If a staker wants to exit before listing, their unstaked tokens are returned to the presale contract (not directly to the user), maintaining the escrow model.

Pool Insolvency Protection

The staking contract implements multiple safeguards:

• Reward calculation: min(calculatedReward, rewardPoolRemaining) — rewards can never exceed the pool balance
• recoverExcess() only allows withdrawal of tokens above totalStaked + rewardPoolRemaining + accruedUnpaid
• When the pool empties, accrual stops gracefully — no revert, no broken state

Emergency Withdraw

If the contract is paused (emergency only), stakers can call emergencyWithdraw() to retrieve their principal. All accrued rewards are forfeited and returned to the pool. Early-unstake penalties still apply.

8.0 Smart Contract Security

Every SLOTH contract is built on OpenZeppelin v5 battle-tested libraries and follows established security patterns.

OpenZeppelin Modules

Security Patterns

• Checks-Effects-Interactions: State changes before external calls in every function
• nonReentrant: Applied to all functions that move tokens or native coin
• Native coin transfer: Uses call{value:} (not deprecated transfer)
• Overflow protection: Solidity 0.8.24 built-in checked arithmetic
• Division-by-zero guards: Explicit checks in price calculations
• Oracle freshness: Staleness check rejects data older than 1 hour

What Does NOT Exist

Planned Audit

An independent security audit by a recognized firm (CertiK, Hacken, or SolidProof) is planned before mainnet launch. The audit report will be published publicly with no unresolved Critical or High findings.

Static analysis with Slither and Mythril is run as part of the development workflow.

9.0 Trust Mechanisms

Beyond the technical security of the contracts, SLOTH implements several trust mechanisms that are verifiable on-chain.

LP Token Lock

The PancakeSwap liquidity pool tokens are locked in a dedicated LPTokenLock contract. This contract is deliberately designed with:

• No owner — zero admin functions, completely immutable
• No early unlock — no escape hatch of any kind
• Single beneficiary — only the designated address receives tokens at unlock
• Minimum 12-month lock — set at deployment, cannot be shortened

Team Token Vesting

The 10B team allocation is locked in an OpenZeppelin VestingWalletCliff contract:

No team tokens are accessible for the first 3 months after listing. After the cliff, tokens vest linearly — approximately 2.74B tokens become available per month until fully vested at month 12.

Additional Trust Measures

• Multisig ownership: Gnosis Safe as contract owner before mainnet
• Contract verification: Full source code verified on BSCScan
• Open source: All contract code is publicly available
• Refund guarantee: If the presale doesn't reach soft cap, 100% refund

10.0 Multi-Chain Architecture

SLOTH supports purchases across multiple EVM-compatible networks, with BSC as the main chain where tokens are held and claimed.

Supported Networks

How Cross-Chain Works

1. Buy on any chain: Users purchase SLOTH on their preferred network. Sub-chain contracts record the purchase but hold no tokens.
2. Sync to main chain: The admin reads claimable amounts from sub-chains and calls addCrossChainClaims() on BSC with a unique batch ID.
3. Clear sub-chain records: After syncing, clearCrossChainClaims() is called on each sub-chain to prevent double-processing.
4. Claim on BSC: All users claim their tokens on BNB Chain, regardless of which network they purchased on.

Batch IDs are unique and deduplicated — reprocessing the same batch reverts with "Batch already processed".
