What Is EscapeSwap? EscapeHub's Own Solana DEX
EscapeSwap is EscapeHub's own decentralized exchange (DEX) on Solana. When a Solana token finishes its bonding curve on EscapeHub, it migrates to EscapeSwap automatically instead of going to an external exchange. This page explains why EscapeSwap exists, how its fees work, and what it means for creators, traders, and the ESCAPE token. EscapeHub is a mobile-first, multichain token launchpad operated by EscapeHub LLC, a company registered in Delaware, USA.
Why EscapeSwap exists
On many launchpads, when a token graduates from its bonding curve it is sent to an external exchange. From that point the external exchange takes the trading fees, and the creator who launched the token stops earning. The creator's 0.5% per trade only covers the bonding phase.
EscapeSwap solves this for Solana. When a Solana token graduates on EscapeHub, it migrates to EscapeSwap automatically instead of to an external DEX. The trading fees stay on EscapeHub, and the creator keeps earning a fee on every trade after graduation through EscapeSwap's market-cap fee tiers, not just during the bonding phase.
EscapeSwap is Solana-specific. On EVM chains (Base, Ethereum, Arbitrum, BSC), graduated tokens go to Uniswap V4, which already handles dynamic fees and creator rewards, so EscapeHub does not need its own exchange there.
Dynamic fee tiers based on market cap
EscapeSwap does not use one flat fee. It applies fee tiers based on a token's market cap:
- Small tokens have higher fees, so more goes to the creator and the platform.
- As a token grows, fees go down automatically, making bigger tokens cheaper to trade.
- The result rewards small tokens for growing while keeping competitive fees on large ones.
What traders and creators get
When a token graduates to EscapeSwap, its liquidity is locked permanently and the chart continues without a break, so it is the same token on a new venue.
Fees are transparent and on-chain, and aggregators like Jupiter can route through EscapeSwap so traders get the best available price. Creators can claim their fees whenever they want with one click.
How EscapeSwap supports ESCAPE
A portion of platform fees is used to buy back the ESCAPE token from the market. Because EscapeSwap keeps trading fees on EscapeHub, more volume on EscapeSwap means more fees to the platform, which means more ESCAPE buybacks.
EscapeSwap is being built production-grade and audited. It is in active development and is being engineered in parallel with the rest of the platform, so it does not delay the launch.
