Hype Crew

Hype Crew pays people who bring buyers. When a creator launches a coin, they can route part of its creator fee to Hype Crew. Anyone with a Manna Pass can then share that coin with their own tracked link, and earn from the trades that link brings in. No posting quotas and no bots: you are paid for real trades, on-chain. This page explains how the slice is worked out, how it pays on each chain, and where to see the leaderboards.

How it works#

1. 1A creator turns on Hype Crew by routing a share of the creator fee to it at launch. See Fee routes.
2. 2You claim a free Manna Pass. That gives you an invite code.
3. 3On any coin page, the Your share link card shows your link: mannas.fun/coin/<chain>/<address>?r=YOURCODE.
4. 4Someone opens your link and trades the coin. The Hype Crew slice of that trade's creator fee is yours.

The Your share link card tells you what a coin pays. On Robinhood Chain and the other EVM chains it says "Earn 0.50% of every trade you bring in while the coin is on its curve", for example; on Solana it adds that the slice is "sent to your Solana wallet in SOL or the coin's pair once it adds up to $1". After graduation it says the slice now goes to holders. If the coin has no Hype Crew route it says the coin doesn't pay yappers, but your shares still earn Pass points. Without a Pass it asks you to claim one to get a tracked link.

How big the slice is#

Your cut is the Hype Crew share of the creator fee, so it is a percentage of the trade:

your cut = trade size x creator fee x Hype Crew share

Example. A coin has a 2% creator fee and routes 25% of it to Hype Crew. Your cut is 2% x 25% = 0.5% of every trade you bring. A friend buys $400 through your link: the creator fee is $8 and $2 of it is yours.

Coins where the creator keeps the whole fee pay no Hype Crew.

On EVM chains#

On Robinhood Chain, Base, BNB Chain, Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon and Avalanche Hype Crew is paid by Manna's factory contract, on each trade:

• Instant credit: when a trade on the coin's curve carries your link, the Hype Crew slice is credited straight to your claimable balance, in the coin's pair asset (ETH or USDG, for example). Trades on the site pass your link on both buys and sells.
• No valid referrer: if the trade carries no link, or the link belongs to the trader themselves, the slice goes to the coin's holders (the Harvest Drop) instead.
• After graduation: fees collected from the coin's Uniswap pool carry no link, so the Hype Crew slice joins the holders' Harvest Drop.
• Claiming: your Hype Crew rewards show as Hype Crew in the Rewards panel on /me. Tap Claim whenever you like.
• Points: each Hype Crew reward also adds 5 Pass points.

On Solana#

On Solana Hype Crew pays the same slice as on EVM chains, sent to your wallet instead of claimed:

• How it's worked out: Manna's keeper collects each coin's fees from its launch curve every 15 minutes. Each collection settles the trades recorded since the last one: every trade on the curve that came through your link earns you its Hype Crew slice (2% x 25% = 0.5% of the trade in the example above), in proportion to what the collection really brought in (the pool's provider keeps a small cut, as it does from every Solana fee).
• Paid to your wallet: your slice is kept for you and sent to your Solana wallet, in the coin's pair (SOL or USDC, for example), once it adds up to $1, like a Harvest Drop. It shows as Hype Crew in your rewards and on the coin's Drops tab. If your account signed up with an EVM wallet, it's sent to your account's Solana wallet; with no Solana wallet, the slice goes to the coin's holders.
• No valid referrer: a trade with no link, or through a link of the trader's own account (any of its wallets), pays its Hype Crew slice to the coin's holders (the Harvest Drop).
• After graduation: fees from the coin's Meteora pool carry no link, so the Hype Crew slice joins the holders' Harvest Drop.
• Your link is tied to the trade as it's sent. The website ties your link to the trade the moment the wallet sends it, so it counts even when Manna's indexer sees the trade first. Trades from the bot and one-tap carry it too. A link that only arrives after the keeper has already settled that trade's fee still counts for points and the leaderboard, but that trade's slice has already gone to holders.
• Points: every trade on a Manna coin that comes through your link adds 5 Pass points, and it counts toward the Yappers leaderboard.

Rules that keep it fair#

• You need a Manna Pass. No code, no tracked link.
• No self-referral. On EVM chains the factory checks the real trader, even for buys paid through Manna's zap (pay with any token), so you cannot earn from your own trades. On Solana Manna checks the trade's real signer against every wallet of the link's account.
• The link has to be used. The slice goes to the person whose link the trade came through.

The Hype Crew page#

The Hype Crew page is the Hype Crew hub. It shows how to earn (Claim your Manna Pass, Share any coin, Get paid) and two leaderboards, top 50 each:

Hype Crew on a coin page#

When people have brought buyers to a coin, its page gets a Hype Crew tab. It lists the coin's yappers in rank order with the number of buys each one brought and the volume, in the coin's pair asset.

Tips for sharing#

• Share coins that pay Hype Crew. Check the Your share link card: if it shows a percentage, the coin pays.
• Share early. The Hype Crew slice is paid while the coin trades on its curve. After graduation the slice goes to holders, on every chain.
• Use the coin link, not a screenshot. Only trades that come through your ?r= link count.
