Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Liquidity Lock tool?
What is the Liquidity Lock tool?
It’s a one-click tool that lock your Uniswap-V2 style LP tokens onchain with immutable unlock timer. The contract releases them back to you only when the countdown you set hits zero, giving the public permanent proof you can’t withdraw liquidity early.
How does it work?
How does it work?
Paste your LP token address, choose how many tokens and the exact unlock date, approve the spend, and proceed. The contract locks the LP tokens immediately, displays the timer on the interface. When the timer hits zero the owner wallet clicks “Claim” and the full LP balance is returned in that single transaction—no partial withdrawals, no extensions, no back-door.
What types of tokens can be locked?
What types of tokens can be locked?
Only LP tokens from Uniswap V2-compatible AMM pools can be locked. These are typically ERC-20 tokens representing liquidity positions in trading pairs (e.g., TOKEN/WETH or TOKEN/USDC pairs).
How do I identify an LP token address?
How do I identify an LP token address?
LP tokens are created when you add liquidity to an AMM pool. You can find the LP token address in your wallet after adding liquidity, or check the pool contract on the blockchain explorer. The tool validates that the provided address is indeed an LP token.
Can I lock my LP tokens for any duration?
Can I lock my LP tokens for any duration?
Yes, you can set any future unlock date using a calendar and time picker. The minimum lock period is not enforced by the contract, but longer locks typically build more trust with investors.
What happens when the unlock date arrives?
What happens when the unlock date arrives?
Once the unlock date passes, the lock owner can claim their LP tokens back to their wallet. The LP tokens remain locked until the owner manually claims them - they don’t automatically unlock.
Can I view all liquidity locks on the platform?
Can I view all liquidity locks on the platform?
Yes, the “All Locks” tab displays all active liquidity locks across the platform, showing which LP token pairs are locked and what percentage of total supply is locked. You can search for specific LP token addresses.
How do I manage my own liquidity locks?
How do I manage my own liquidity locks?
The “My Locks” tab shows all locks created by your wallet address. For each lock, you can view details, see the progress timeline, and access management actions when available.
What information is shown for each liquidity lock?
What information is shown for each liquidity lock?
Each lock displays the LP token pair (e.g., TOKEN/WETH), lock amount, creation date, unlock date, current unlock progress, and owner information. The tool also shows visual progress bars and percentage of total supply locked.
Can I transfer ownership of my liquidity lock?
Can I transfer ownership of my liquidity lock?
Yes, lock owners can transfer ownership to another wallet address. This transfers all rights to claim the tokens when the unlock date arrives.
What is "renounce ownership" and when should I use it?
What is "renounce ownership" and when should I use it?
Renouncing ownership permanently removes the ability to claim the locked tokens, making them inaccessible forever. This is typically used for permanent locks to demonstrate maximum commitment to the project.
Can I edit the unlock date after creating a lock?
Can I edit the unlock date after creating a lock?
You can only edit the unlock date if no tokens have been claimed yet from that lock. Once any portion is unlocked, the lock parameters become immutable.
What happens if I lose access to my wallet?
What happens if I lose access to my wallet?
If you lose access to the wallet that owns the lock, the tokens become permanently inaccessible. There’s no recovery mechanism - always backup your wallet securely.
How do I verify that my lock was successfully created?
How do I verify that my lock was successfully created?
After creating a lock, you’ll see a transaction confirmation and the lock will appear in your “My Locks” tab. You can also verify on the blockchain explorer using the transaction hash.
What is the difference between liquidity lock and token vesting?
What is the difference between liquidity lock and token vesting?
Liquidity lock is specifically for LP tokens from AMM pools and follows a simple lock/unlock mechanism. Token vesting typically involves gradual release schedules over time and is used for reward tokens or team allocations.
Can I use liquidity lock for any AMM besides Uniswap V2?
Can I use liquidity lock for any AMM besides Uniswap V2?
The tool supports Uniswap V2-compatible AMMs, which includes most major DEXs like PancakeSwap, ZealousSwap, and other forks that use the same pair contract standard.
