Launching on BNB Smart Chain mainnetIntroduction
abroad is a token launchpad on BNB Smart Chain (chain id 56) where every memecoin launches paired with a tokenized foreign stock — names listed in Hong Kong, Shanghai and Tokyo that you cannot buy on a US exchange. The pairing isn't a sticker on a website: the launch transaction creates an actual on-chain Uniswap v4 pool between your token and a tokenized share that tracks the real price, converted to dollars at the live exchange rate. Your coin and the stock trade against each other 24 hours a day, every day, forever.
The ten largest companies on the roster are live today: Tencent, ICBC, Alibaba, Kweichow Moutai, CATL, Toyota, SoftBank Group, China Mobile, Tokyo Electron and Hitachi. All ten are stock tokens the abroad vault issues itself. The rest of the roster — another twenty-two Hong Kong, Tokyo and New York-listed names — is on the launchpad marked coming soon, and each moves to live when it is promoted. None of the Hong Kong, Shanghai or Tokyo names has existed as a token on BNB Chain before.
This page is the full reference. It covers why these stocks, what a launch actually does, how the two pools work, how trading routes, where the fees go, how the stock tokens hold their peg, what the contracts can and cannot do, and the risks you should understand before you launch or trade. Nothing here hides behind a "trust us": every number and every rule is enforced by a contract you can read on BscScan.
Why foreign stocks
Hong Kong, Shanghai and Tokyo list some of the largest and most-traded companies on earth, and almost none of them can be bought through a US brokerage. Tencent, Nintendo, Xiaomi, Keyence, BYD, Moutai: household names with no ticker on any US exchange. abroad puts those names on chain and lets you build a coin on top of them.
Why these stocks
- You can't get them in the US. Every stock on the roster is listed only overseas. There is no NYSE or NASDAQ line for Tencent, Nintendo, Xiaomi, Keyence, Moutai or Meituan; at best there is an illiquid over-the-counter receipt. A few of the biggest Chinese and Japanese companies also trade in New York as ADRs — Alibaba and Toyota are on the live roster — and they come on chain the same way, issued by the vault against their New York quote.
- Most of them aren't on chain anywhere. The tokenized-stock products on BNB Chain today cover US-listed names only. Nothing tokenizes the Hang Seng or the Nikkei natively; abroad's vault does.
- They move. Chinese tech and Japanese industrials are among the most volatile large caps anywhere. That volatility is the point: your coin's reserve asset actually does something.
Launching a token
Launches are real and non-custodial: your wallet submits every transaction, and abroad never holds your keys, your tokens or your BNB. The launch form asks for a name, a ticker, a description, an image and optional socials, and a stock to pair with. Hit Launch and the site switches your wallet to BNB Smart Chain and sends one transaction.
What that one transaction does
- Deploys your token with a fixed supply of 1,000,000,000. There is no mint function; supply can never change.
- Writes your metadata (description, image, socials, the paired stock) onto the token so every scanner and wallet reads it from the chain, not from us.
- Opens the BNB pool on PancakeSwap v3 with 80% of supply and the stock pool on Uniswap v4 with 20% of supply, both at the same opening price of $4,200 fully diluted, converted from the vault's live BNB quote at that moment.
- Executes your optional developer buy: the BNB you attach is swapped into your own coin in the same block, before anyone else can trade. It is capped at 10% of supply so a creator can't launch pre-loaded.
- Locks both liquidity positions inside the launchpad contract. See Liquidity.
The launch itself costs gas only; there is no platform fee to create a coin, and gas on BNB Chain is cents. Your ticker is branded on chain as TICKER-STOCK (a coin paired with Tencent trades as $PEPE-TENCENT everywhere), and that can never change either. The moment the transaction confirms, your coin appears on the board with a live price, a chart and a trade ticket, and it is tradeable by anyone.
Launching on Flap
abroad.sh/flap is a second way to launch: a Flap tax token, created through Flap's own Portal contract from our page, shown on the abroad board from its first block. Use it for a coin that wants Flap's bonding curve, a tax that pays the creator, and the Flap and GMGN audience, rather than a stock pairing.
What you get
- Flap's bonding curve. The token starts on Flap's curve (BNB reserve, 1,000,000,000 supply) and lists on PancakeSwap when 800M tokens have been sold. Flap keeps 1% of every curve trade.
- A tax that pays you. Buy and sell tax rates you set (2% and 2% by default, up to 10%), 100% of it to the creator funds wallet, for 365 days after the PancakeSwap listing. The curve itself is tax-free.
- Your first buy inside the launch. The BNB you attach buys your own coin in the same transaction, before anyone else can.
- Everywhere at once. The coin appears on abroad, on flap.sh and on GMGN, with Flap's image and metadata pinned on Flap's IPFS gateway.
What abroad does and does not do
abroad only builds the transaction and shows the coin. Your wallet signs it, Flap's Portal creates the token, Flap's contracts collect and pay the tax, and the abroad token page trades against Flap's curve through the Portal. abroad takes no fee and no commission on Flap launches. The token address always ends in 7777, which is how Flap marks its tax tokens.
The two pools
Every launch creates two pools: the BNB pool on PancakeSwap v3 and the stock pool on Uniswap v4. They are separate markets with separate liquidity, opened at the same price, and arbitrage keeps them in line.
The BNB pool is the trading venue: a PancakeSwap v3 pool against WBNB on the 1% fee tier, which is the pool type every BNB Chain scanner indexes — GMGN, DexScreener, GeckoTerminal, the aggregators. It's where the price, the chart, the liquidity and the routes live, and it's why your coin shows up in the same places every other BNB Chain launch does. See Scanners.
The stock pool is the identity: your memecoin sitting in a real AMM against a tokenized share. When the meme pumps against BNB, arbitrage drags the stock pool with it — anyone can buy the meme with the stock or dump the meme into the stock, and every one of those trades is a swap between your coin and a real ticker. That's the pairing, and it is enforced by liquidity, not by a label.
Because both pools hold locked liquidity from block one, there is no bonding-curve phase, no "graduation" and no moment where liquidity migrates. The coin is a fully formed market the second it exists.
Trading
There are two ways to trade an abroad coin, and both are open to anyone with a wallet on BNB Chain.
- Through the site. The trade ticket on every token page routes BNB → paired stock → coin on a buy and the reverse on a sell. Your BNB is converted into the paired stock at the oracle price, then swapped through the stock pool, so every site trade is a real trade against the stock. Sells route the same way back to BNB, so you never have to hold the stock yourself.
- Through the BNB pool. PancakeSwap itself, GMGN, any aggregator or bot on BNB Chain can trade the coin directly against BNB. That is what scanners chart, and it is where most third-party volume lands.
Both paths pay the pool's 1% fee. There is no market-hours gate, no pause switch and no whitelist: the pools quote every second of every day, including when the stock's home exchange is closed. When the exchange is closed the stock's oracle price simply stays at its last sync, so the stock pool behaves like any other pair until the next open.
Scanners
Every abroad coin's BNB pool is a PancakeSwap v3 pool on the 1% tier, and that is the pool type GMGN, DexScreener, GeckoTerminal and the aggregators all index on BNB Chain. Within a minute or two of launch the coin has a price, a chart, liquidity, holders and a trade tape on each of them, and every token page here links to GMGN and DexScreener directly.
Why the pair reads "WBNB". Scanners chart the pool they can price, and they price BNB. The stock pool is a Uniswap v4 pool against the tokenized share, which no BNB Chain scanner quotes yet, so the pair field on a scanner shows the BNB pool. The pairing is on chain regardless: the on-chain symbol of every launch reads TICKER-STOCK, the token's metadata names the paired stock, and both pools appear in the launch transaction's logs on BscScan.
Images and socials on scanners. Scanners do not read a token's on-chain metadata; they show what the token's team submits to them or what they pull from each other. abroad writes your image, description, socials and paired stock into the token's on-chain metadata and shows all of it on your token page, but the profile on GMGN or DexScreener is a form each creator fills once the coin is listed there. It takes two minutes and every serious token team does it.
What a scanner can't show. The stock pool, and the site's BNB → stock → coin route. Those live on the abroad token page, together with the same price, chart and tape the scanners see.
The stocks
Every pair on abroad is a token on BNB Chain that tracks one listed share, issued by the abroad vault. There is one kind of stock token and one set of rules, whichever exchange the share trades on.
How a stock gets on chain
Each stock is issued as a token by the vault. The vault holds BNB as collateral, tracks the share's real price through an oracle — the exchange quote in its home currency, converted to US dollars at the live HKD, CNY or JPY rate, or the New York quote directly for the ADRs — and lets anyone mint or redeem the token against that price. The keeper re-syncs every price every 30 minutes while quotes move. When the home exchange is closed the price holds at its last sync; the pools keep trading regardless.
Every stock token carries a 5% tax on direct wallet-to-wallet transfers that funds the keeper who maintains the price feeds. The launchpad, the router and the liquidity contracts are exempt, so normal trading never pays it.
Why the vault, and not someone else's token
Tokenized stocks issued by third parties exist on BNB Chain, and we looked hard at pairing with them. The problem is not the tokens, it is their markets: the only on-chain pools those tokens have are a handful of dust pools with 46% to 99% swap fees, set up to skim whoever routes through them, and the real market sits behind a KYC gate no contract can pass. Pairing a coin with one of those would have meant a stock pool nobody could reach and a scanner reading 99% next to your pair. Issuing the stock ourselves means the site can route BNB → stock → coin for every pair, the stock pool is reachable by anyone with BNB, and nothing near your coin reads as a honeypot.
What qualifies
A listed share of a company you would struggle to buy through a US brokerage: names listed only in Hong Kong, Shanghai or Tokyo, plus the handful of Chinese and Japanese giants whose only US line is an ADR. Big enough that its quote is honest, foreign enough that retail here has never had a clean way in. We rank candidates by market cap and pick the names people already know.
The roster
The roster is ranked by market cap and the ten largest are live: Tencent, ICBC, Alibaba, Kweichow Moutai, CATL, Toyota, SoftBank Group, China Mobile, Tokyo Electron and Hitachi. Everything below them is listed as coming soon and moves to live when promoted: Recruit, Fast Retailing (Uniqlo), Keyence, Mitsubishi Corp, BYD, PDD, Xiaomi, NetEase, Shin-Etsu, Nintendo, Meituan, JD, Baidu, Trip.com, Pop Mart, Kuaishou, Futu, Li Auto, NIO, Kanzhun, Bilibili and Hesai.
Live stocks and their contract addresses are published here as each one goes live. The launch page shows the current roster; anything marked coming soon isn't launchable yet.

The peg
Each stock token is redeemable against the vault at the oracle price, so its value is anchored the same way a stablecoin's is. The vault holds BNB; the tokens are claims on that BNB at the stock's dollar price.
Mint and redeem
- Mint: send BNB to the vault, receive stock tokens at BNB × bnbPrice ÷ stockPrice. The BNB stays in the vault as collateral.
- Redeem: burn stock tokens, receive BNB at the same live rate, paid from the vault's balance.
That two-way door is what keeps the pools honest. If a stock token trades above its oracle price in a pool, anyone can mint at the oracle and sell into the pool. If it trades below, anyone can buy from the pool and redeem at the oracle. Both trades are profitable exactly when the pool is wrong, which pulls it back. The site's trade ticket uses the same door: every buy mints the paired stock at the oracle price before swapping into the coin, so site trades always settle at the real stock price.
The oracle
The vault keeper syncs every stock's price and the BNB price in one batched transaction, automatically, whenever quotes move — roughly every half hour while the home exchange is open. Prices are pulled in the exchange's own currency and converted to dollars at that moment's HKD, CNY or JPY rate, so the on-chain price already includes the currency move. Every sync is a public transaction you can audit on BscScan, and every stock's current oracle price is readable from the vault contract. A sync that would move a price by more than half is rejected as a bad feed and retried.
Closed markets
When Tokyo or Hong Kong is shut, the stock's oracle price holds at its last sync. The pools keep trading, so a coin paired with SoftBank can move all weekend; the stock side simply doesn't reprice until Monday's open in Tokyo. If a big move is coming at the open, arbitrageurs will position for it in the pool before the oracle catches up. That's a feature for traders and a risk for the unaware, so it's listed under Risks too.
Caps and collateral
Each stock has a hard cap on how much value can be minted against it, so the vault's liabilities stay bounded and small relative to its collateral. Between syncs the real price can drift; the keeper maintains a BNB buffer in the vault to absorb that drift so redemptions always clear at the oracle. Redemptions are limited to the BNB the vault actually holds — the vault never prints BNB it doesn't have.
Liquidity
Both pools are seeded in the launch transaction and the positions are held by the launchpad contract itself. There is no LP token, no LP NFT and no withdraw function — not for the creator, not for the platform, not for anyone. The contract has no code path that removes liquidity, so a rug through the liquidity is not merely disallowed, it is impossible. Nothing closes, nothing halts: the pools quote every second of every day.
How the liquidity is placed
The BNB pool takes 80% of supply as a one-sided position that starts at the opening price and sells up the curve as buyers come in; BNB paid by buyers becomes the pool's depth on the way back down. The stock pool takes the other 20% the same way, so a launch is deep enough on day one for scanners to chart and route it, and every coin opens at the same fair price regardless of who launched it.
Trading fees
Every swap in either pool pays the pool's 1% fee, which accrues inside the position. Fees can be collected at any time by the creator or the platform through collectFees: 70% goes to the creator wallet and 30% to the platform, and that split is fixed in the contract. Collecting fees does not touch the principal liquidity — only the fees leave.
Stock-side depth
Each live stock also has its own BNB pool, seeded by the platform, so routers can price the stock and path through it. That depth is placed one-sided above the oracle price and only ever sells stock at or above the real price, which means the platform can add or withdraw it without ever selling stock below what it's worth.
Fees, in one table
| What | How much | Who pays | Where it goes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Launching a coin | Gas only | Creator | Network |
| Swap in the BNB pool or the stock pool | 1% of the trade | Trader | Accrues in the pool; 70% creator / 30% platform when collected |
| Minting or redeeming a stock token at the vault | None | — | — |
| Direct wallet-to-wallet transfer of a stock token | 5% | Sender | Keeper, funds the price feeds |
| Site trades through the router | Only the pool's 1% | Trader | As above; the router itself takes nothing |
There are no hidden fees. The router, the vault and the launchpad have no fee switches that can be turned on later.
Contracts and what they can do
Four contracts make up the platform; their addresses are listed above under The two pools and every stock token's address under The stocks. All source is published to BscScan.
- The launchpad deploys coins, opens the pools, holds the locked liquidity and pays out collected fees. Its only privileged function is changing the platform's fee-recipient address. It cannot pause trading, remove liquidity, mint tokens or touch anyone's balance.
- The vault issues stock tokens, holds the BNB collateral and runs mint/redeem at the oracle. The keeper can list a stock, set its price, cap and metadata, exempt platform contracts from the transfer tax and manage the collateral buffer. The keeper cannot take a user's tokens or block a redemption.
- The router turns BNB into the paired stock and back so site trades settle against the stock pool. It holds nothing between transactions and has no owner.
- The depth seeder places the platform's own liquidity in the stock pools. It only ever moves the platform's own positions.
Your coin's token contract is the simplest of all: a fixed-supply ERC-20 with metadata. No owner, no mint, no blacklist, no tax.
Risks
This is a memecoin launchpad built on top of volatile foreign stocks, priced through an oracle, on a public chain. Read this part.
- Memecoins can go to zero. Locked liquidity guarantees there will always be a market; it does not guarantee a price. Most coins launched anywhere lose most of their value.
- Foreign large caps are volatile. Chinese tech and Japanese exporters can move ten percent on a headline, and the stock pool moves with them. That is the feature, and it cuts both ways.
- Closed-market gaps. The oracle holds a stock's last price while its exchange is shut. When Tokyo or Hong Kong reopens the on-chain price can jump to catch up. Pools trade through the weekend; the stock side reprices on Monday.
- Currency risk. The on-chain price is the share price times the HKD, CNY or JPY rate. A currency move is a stock move here.
- Oracle lag. Prices update in syncs, not tick by tick. Between syncs the on-chain price can differ from the live quote. Arbitrageurs close that gap; if you are on the wrong side of it, that's a cost.
- Collateral limits. Redemptions pay from the vault's BNB. Caps and the buffer keep it solvent, but redemptions are always bounded by what the vault holds.
- Thin markets. A new coin's pool is deep enough to trade, not deep enough to absorb a whale without moving. Use slippage limits.
- Smart-contract risk. The contracts are small, verified and hold no admin keys over user funds, but any code can have bugs. Don't launch or trade with money you can't lose.
What's next
More stocks. The launchpad already shows the rest of the roster, marked coming soon, and each flips live the day it is promoted. Names you want to see on chain are taken on X.
More markets. Hong Kong, Shanghai and Tokyo are the start. Seoul, Taipei and Mumbai are next in line.
Stocks as scanner quote assets. As the stock tokens build depth and history we are working with the indexers to have them recognised as quote currencies, so the stock pool shows up in the pair field the way the BNB pool does today.
Questions people ask
Do I need to own the stock to launch or trade? No. The site mints the stock for you inside the transaction. You only ever hold BNB and your coin unless you choose to hold the stock token itself.
Is this a real share? No. It is a token whose price tracks the share through an oracle and is redeemable for BNB at that price. It carries no ownership, votes or dividends. See Legal.
Can I launch the same ticker twice? Every coin gets a unique contract, but the site refuses a ticker that is already listed so the board stays readable.
Can the creator pull liquidity? No. There is no function for it in the contract. Nobody can.
Why does my coin show "BNB" as its pair on GMGN? See Scanners. The stock pool is live; the scanner just can't price the stock yet.
What happens when Tokyo or Hong Kong is closed? The pools keep trading. The stock's oracle price stays where the last sync left it until the next open.
Where do my fees go? Into the pool until you collect them. Collect from your creator wallet at any time; 70% of what has accrued is yours.
Is abroad custodial? No. Every action is a transaction from your own wallet.
The abroad meta
Every memecoin is a bet with a face on it. Here the face is a company on the other side of the planet — your coin lives in the same pool as a tokenized Tencent or Toyota. The meme is the marketing; the stock pool is the receipt.
That changes what a launch is. An abroad coin isn't just a name and a picture; it is a position on a real company that a billion people already argue about, expressed as a token that trades around the clock, with liquidity that can't be pulled. When Hong Kong rips, the pool rips. When Tokyo gaps at the open, the coins paired with it are where the loudest version of that trade lives on chain.
Markets you can't reach from home. Coins that live there.
Legal
abroad is software, not a broker, exchange, advisor or custodian. The site is an interface to public smart contracts on BNB Smart Chain. Every transaction is created, signed and submitted by you from your own wallet. abroad never holds your funds, your keys or your tokens, and cannot reverse, pause or undo anything you do.
Nothing on this site is financial, investment, legal or tax advice. Memecoins and the stocks they are paired with are volatile, and tokens launched or traded here can lose all of their value. The tokenized stocks are synthetic tokens whose price tracks a real share through an oracle; they are not shares, do not confer ownership, voting rights, dividends or any claim on the underlying company, and are not issued, endorsed or sponsored by that company or by any exchange.
We are not responsible for your losses. To the fullest extent permitted by law, abroad, its contributors and partners accept no liability for any loss or damage arising from use of the site or the contracts, including losses from price movement, currency movement, oracle lag or closed-market gaps, smart-contract bugs, network failures, third-party scanners, routers or wallets, or tokens created by other users. Coins launched on the platform are created by their creators, not by abroad, and abroad makes no representation about any of them.
You are responsible for your own compliance. Access to and use of the platform may be restricted or prohibited in your jurisdiction, including jurisdictions where the underlying companies are listed. By using the site you confirm that you are permitted to do so where you live, that you understand the risks described in these docs, and that you use the platform entirely at your own risk. Nothing here creates a partnership, agency or fiduciary relationship between you and abroad.
