1
Trade on the curve
Buys reduce the token reserve and increase the real canonical quote reserve. Sells reverse that movement. Quotes and slippage limits are available directly from the launch factory.
2
Reach the configured milestone
Each chain manifest defines the virtual starting reserve and objective quote-asset graduation threshold. The interface shows progress from live contract state.
3
Graduate atomically
The buy that crosses the threshold automatically sends the remaining curve tokens, real quote reserve, and retained liquidity fees through the KovaSwap router.
4
Lock the V2 position
The resulting KovaSwap V2 LP tokens are minted to
0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dEaD. The liquidity cannot be recovered.5
Route normal swaps
Curve trading closes and the standard KovaSwap router, smart router, aggregators, and bots can trade the graduated pair.
External launchpads graduating an already-distributed token can still use
kova.pools.prepareGraduation(...). That integration path is separate from the native Kova bonding curve.
