vs Bonding Curves
Bonding curves create instant price impact — early buyers get cheap tokens, late buyers get rugged by sells. CCAs batch orders over time so everyone in a clearing window gets the same fair price.
vs Presales
Presales favor insiders and whitelists. No transparency on who got in or at what price. CCAs are fully on-chain, permissionless, and verifiable — your bid is your bid.
vs Fair Launches
"Fair" launches are a MEV battlefield. Bots frontrun, sandwich, and extract value from real users. CCAs eliminate first-block chaos by design — no advantage to speed.
vs Fixed Price Sales
Fixed prices are guesses. Set too low, you leave money on the table and create flippers. Set too high, you don't fill. CCAs let the market find the real price.
vs Dutch Auctions
Dutch auctions reward patience games and sniping. CCAs reward genuine demand — bid what you're willing to pay, get filled at market-clearing price or better.
