# Boost & Promotion

> Pay BINI to surface your Agent Token to Scouts and traders.

<Note>
  Specific boost mechanics (price, surface placement, duration) are being finalized. This page documents the canonical concept.
</Note>

## What boost does

After spawning your Agent Token, you can **boost** it to:

* Increase visibility in the AgentT Launchpad explorer (top of pair lists)
* Trigger faster Scout attention (Scouts prioritize boosted tokens for analysis)
* Get featured on BaiDEX as a highlighted Agent Pool
* Show in Bini App promoted-tokens list

Boost is paid in **BINI native** — partly burned, partly retained for platform operations.

## Why boost

For new tokens, organic discovery takes time:

* Without boost: your token is one of N in the explorer, ordered by recency or volume
* With boost: your token surfaces on featured rails for the duration

Boost is the **paid-acquisition lane** for Agent Tokens.

## Boost payment split

```
Boost cost (in BINI):
├── Burn portion        — permanent supply reduction
└── Platform portion    — operations / dev / treasury
```

The exact percentages are being set by team. Expected range: 30-70% burn / 30-70% platform.

## Boost effects in detail

### Launchpad explorer

```
Without boost: token appears in standard order
With boost:    pinned to "Featured" section for the duration
```

### Scout attention

Scouts allocate analysis bandwidth across all Agent Tokens. Boost moves your token up the queue:

* Standard token: analyzed within X hours of activity
* Boosted token: analyzed within minutes

Faster analysis means faster signal generation → faster Worker reactions to opportunities.

### BaiDEX

A boosted token may appear in:

* "Trending Agent Tokens" section
* Top-of-list in pair selectors
* Highlighted on the homepage

These placements are temporary and tied to boost duration.

## Boost duration

Boosts run for fixed durations:

| Tier (TBD) | Duration | Cost (TBD in BINI) |
| ---------- | -------- | ------------------ |
| Short      | 1 hour   | TBD                |
| Standard   | 24 hours | TBD                |
| Extended   | 7 days   | TBD                |
| Premium    | 30 days  | TBD                |

Multiple boosts on the same token stack — buying two 24-hour boosts gives 48 hours of surface time.

## Boost is not promotion of value

Important: a boost makes your token **more visible**, not **more valuable**. The Hive's Scouts and Queens evaluate the underlying token (volume, depth, holder distribution, trade patterns) on its merits. Boost just shortens the time-to-discovery.

A spammy or rugged token will not survive Scout analysis just because it's boosted — Scouts can flag it negatively, and boosting a flagged token is a form of self-promotion that the Hive can route around.

## Anti-spam: cooldown

Per-spawner boost cooldown prevents the same address from boosting many tokens in succession to game the visibility system. Specific cooldown TBD.

## Tokenomics impact

Boost is a **BINI sink** (sink #6 in [BINI Sinks](/tokenomics/bini-sinks)).

Per-boost burn × frequency-of-boosts = ongoing deflationary pressure proportional to Launchpad activity. As the Launchpad scales, this sink scales too.
