Fastest-growing decentralized IDO launchpad — Solana-native, user-first, high-yield crypto fundraising

🎯 Overview

Ape Terminal is the fastest-growing IDO launchpad in crypto — built for speed, fairness, and maximum yield.

It empowers projects to raise funds via Initial DEX Offerings (IDOs) on Solana (with multi-chain expansion planned), while giving everyday users free/accessible early access to the best tokens — no staking walls, no heavy gating.

Core promise:

Launch or join high-quality IDOs with transparency, anti-bot protection, Jito-accelerated txs, referral rewards, snapshot bonuses, and proven ROI (avg 10–20x on many sales).

Why Ape Terminal?

• Solana-native speed — Jito bundles + optimized RPCs for snappy participation
• User-first — Open-access IDOs, no mandatory token lockups
• Proven track record — 30+ successful launches, $50M+ raised, strong community ROI
• Full tooling — On-chain program (Anchor), backend API, admin dashboard, claims engine, referral system, winner selection via snapshots
• Built for 2026 meta — Memecoins, DeFi, AI agents, gaming, DePIN — all supported

📦 Installation (Dev Setup)

This repo is the backend + on-chain dev workspace.

# Clone the dev repo
git clone https://github.com/Apollo87z/aperTerminalDevRepo.git
cd aperTerminalDevRepo

# Install dependencies (Node.js 18+ / Yarn recommended)
yarn install

# Copy env example and configure
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env → add Solana RPC, Jito endpoint, Firebase creds, etc.

# Start dev server (API + hot reload)
yarn dev
# or
nodemon src/index.ts

Frontend repo (Next.js / React) is separate — contact @Apollo87z for access if contributing.

On-chain program built with Anchor → see program.ts, idl/, redeem.ts, etc.

🚀 Quick Start

1. Participate in an IDO (User)

1. Connect Phantom / Backpack wallet at https://www.apeterminal.io
2. Browse active sales → https://www.apeterminal.io/launchpad
3. Register / get allocation (referral = bigger chance!)
4. Contribute SOL/USDC during sale window
5. Claim tokens post-launch via dashboard

2. Launch a Project

1. Submit project → https://www.apeterminal.io/apply
2. Pass review (KYC-lite + smart contract audit recommended)
3. Set tokenomics, raise target, vesting
4. Launch → Ape Terminal handles promotion, anti-bot, Jito txs

Example on-chain contribution flow (simplified):

// Pseudo-code from your program
const tx = await program.methods
  .contribute(new BN(amount))
  .accounts({ user: userPubkey, idoAccount, ... })
  .rpc({ skipPreflight: true }); // + Jito bundle

📚 Use Cases

• Memecoin launches — Fast fair-launch with anti-snipe
• DeFi protocols — Token sales with vesting
• Gaming / NFT projects — Community allocations
• DePIN / AI agents — Early backers with referrals
• Cross-chain experiments — Solana-first, bridge later

🧪 Examples

Example: Successful IDO Flow

1. Project deploys → initialize_ido.ts
2. Users hit /ido/contribute → backend → Jito → on-chain
3. Sale ends → snapshot.ts → winnersManagement.ts
4. Users claim → claims_routes.ts → redeem.ts

Example: Referral Tracking

// From project_user_routes.ts
await useReferral(referralCode, userWallet);

Example: Conflict / No Allocation

{
  "success": false,
  "reason": "Allocation sold out",
  "next_sale": "2026-02-01T12:00:00Z"
}
