$SHINY Graduated in 24 Seconds

Today's new-launch list on Robinhood Chain includes a token called Shiny Pack NFT: By Logan Paul — a real person's name in the token name. I traced it from the second its first pool was created, and the timeline is probably the most concentrated sample this chain has produced:

00:04:43 curve pool created → 00:05:07 graduated (24 seconds) → 00:05:34 a second identically named contract opens a pool → 00:06:44 an 81% fee pool appears → 00:09:15 a third same-name contract → 00:09:30 a fourth pool

All of it in under five minutes. Data from 2026-09-18, 00:04–00:50 UTC, via GeckoTerminal and DexScreener.

First, the important part: I found no public link between Logan Paul and this token

This goes at the top. I searched "Logan Paul Shiny Pack NFT 2026". The recent public reporting involving Logan Paul is about something else entirely: he sold a Pokémon card for $16.5 million, which set off an argument about "slop tokenization" (TradingView / Cointelegraph, Stocktwits).

Nothing public indicates that Logan Paul or anyone on his side issued, licensed or endorsed this token on Robinhood Chain. Whose name sits in a token name is a string the deployer typed, and the chain verifies none of it — same reason there are seven "Zcash" contracts here.

Graduating in 24 seconds: how fast the Pons V2 curve actually is

Pool by pool, on GeckoTerminal's numbers:

Curve pool at 00:04:43, graduated pool at 00:05:07 — 24 seconds apart. Not a one-off either: yesterday HBET's curve pool was created at 00:28:20 and its graduated pool appeared 13 seconds later. Bitquery's investigation into the Pons launchpad reports that roughly half of graduations happen within four minutes (their sample covers 2026-08-03 to 09-03).

What does a second-scale graduation mean for you? It means the curve stage leaves normal people no time at all. By the time the token shows up on a new-launch list, the curve is finished and the only price you can buy is the post-graduation pool.

Trap two: the data feed picked the curve pool, not the real one

Today's research pack reads SHINY as: $0 liquidity, $23,482 of 24h volume, +1,051.16% on the day. That looks like a monster.

But it is the curve pool's reading. Once the curve sells out, liquidity migrates, which is why it shows $0 — and the +1,051% is the curve's price path from start to sold out. The pool you can actually trade was -52.75% at the same moment. (DexScreener reads the same pool as $10,792 liquidity and -74.56% on the day. The two sources disagree, which is normal for a token's first half hour.)

This is why we keep repeating it: do not trust any percentage on a token in its first thirty minutes. Yesterday IRIS did exactly this — the pack showed +182.84% with $13,047 liquidity, and ten minutes later GeckoTerminal had it at $4,071 and -37.52%.

Trap three: an 81% fee pool, 97 seconds after graduation

At 00:06:44 somebody created a SHINY/WETH pool with an 81% fee tier. That means 81% of anything you trade through it goes to the LP. You lose four-fifths on entry.

We have been tracking this template for over a week: FRONTIER's five 80% pools on September 13; the 81% / 83.037% / 80.19% tiers shared by FRONTIER, PAIREX and BANGERCAT on September 14; DEPTH and HBET both at 81% on September 17. It is now practically part of the standard launch choreography.

The good news is almost nobody steps in them. SHINY's 81% pool took $0.01 of volume in 24h; looking back at yesterday's DEPTH pools today, its 81% / 90.2% / 80.027% tiers captured $4.67, $0.29 and $5.57 respectively. The traps are real but routers mostly go around them — as long as you are using a router that compares prices, rather than manually clicking into one pool.

Trap four: four same-name contracts, two of them character-identical

Search "Shiny Pack" on DexScreener and Robinhood Chain returns four:

The first two rows are the genuinely hard case. Two contracts with character-for-character identical names, pools created 27 seconds apart, both with six figures of volume. One is +200%, the other -81.77%. This is not the easy version where the copy has no volume and gives itself away — if you bought by name last night, you flipped a coin.

Which leaves exactly one of our usual rules applicable here: buy by address, not by name. Except this token publishes no website and no address to verify against — so the only remaining move is the boring one: do not buy it. The full method is in Two Artificial Doges: A Three-Step Way to Tell Copies Apart.

Where it stands now

• The pack's contract (0x1682…394C): graduated pool liquidity between $9,136 and $14,177 depending on source, $73,736 of 24h volume, 370 buys against 342 sells
• The other one (0x01Ef…0BD0): $60,244 liquidity, $106,443 of 24h volume, +200%
• Holder count, top-10 concentration: no public data
• Website, Twitter: neither contract has either — DexScreener's info fields are empty

My call: leave it alone. Not because I can prove it is a scam — I cannot, and I am not claiming that. Because there is no verifiable project information, a character-identical rival contract exists, an 81% trap pool appeared within two minutes of launch, and the data feed and the real pool disagree on the direction of the move. Put those four together and you cannot even state what it is you bought.

FAQ

Did Logan Paul launch this token?

No public information supports that. A token's name is a string chosen by whoever deployed it, and the chain verifies nothing. The recent Logan Paul coverage I found concerns his $16.5M Pokémon card sale, which is unrelated to this token.

Is a 24-second graduation good or bad?

Bad for early buyers — the curve gave you no window at all. For everyone after, it simply means the first price available to you is the post-graduation one, so "early" does not apply.

Why does the data show +1,051% when it is actually down?

Because that reading comes from the sold-out curve pool, not the tradeable graduated pool. At the same moment, the graduated pool was -52.75% (GeckoTerminal) or -74.56% (DexScreener). Do not trust first-thirty-minute percentages.

Will an 81% fee pool catch me automatically?

A price-comparing router usually routes around it, and in practice these pools take almost no flow — SHINY's took $0.01 in 24h. But if you pick a pool manually, or use an interface that does not compare, you can land in one. Check the fee tier before signing.

What else launched today?

Eight of today's ten launches are Pons V2 curve pools reading $3,283–$5,531, which is the curve's starting value rather than real money. Full list in the September 18 hot tokens report; the 24-hour trace on yesterday's ten is here.
