How it works, what it costs, and what can go wrong.

1 · The sweep

SootSweeper finds the tokenized-stock and commodity positions in your wallet that are too small or too awkward to sell by hand, quotes every one of them against live Solana liquidity, and hands you one batch of transactions to approve. It also closes the token accounts it empties, returning the rent they were holding — on Solana that is roughly 0.0015 SOL per account.

  1. Read. Your wallet is read for both token programs. Every position with a routable market is priced and quoted to USDC. Positions with no route are shown and skipped — never swapped at a made-up price.
  2. Size. Each leg is sized to what the pool can actually absorb within your price-impact limit. A large balance can look valuable and still be unsellable at that size; the impact column is the honest one.
  3. Sign once. Legs are batched into versioned transactions (about five per transaction at current size limits) and approved with a single prompt. You can see every leg before you sign.
  4. Close. The emptied accounts are closed in the same sweep and their rent comes back to your wallet.
  5. Receipt. The receipt reports what the transaction actually did, read from the result — a reverted transaction still returns a signature, and we do not present a hash as a success.

No custody, no account, no deposit, no bridging. Nothing leaves your wallet except what you sign.

2 · The registry

The registry is the list of instruments we will route. It is not a copy of somebody else's list — every instrument in it has been checked for a live route with real liquidity, and re-checked periodically, because advertised instrument lists are aspirational. Sampling one launchpad's public registry found instruments with no swap route at all, and others quoting at impacts no one would accept.

We would rather route 90 instruments you can actually exit than 598 you cannot.

3 · The economics

$SOOT carries a 3% tax on every trade, and it is paid out like this:

Where it goesShare of the taxOf every $100 traded
Meteora (the pool and its graduation)20%$0.60
Ember (the launchpad we launch on)30%$0.90
Holders — paid in $EMBER16.7%$0.50
Buy and burn $SOOT16.7%$0.50
Treasury — a slice of it becomes the BTC reserve16.7%$0.50

We publish the smaller number. The platform's own field values describe the creator share as 50% of the tax (the 1.5% shown above). Some of the platform's interface copy describes it as 80%. We have used the conservative figure, and the first real payout settles it — at which point this table gets corrected, in whichever direction the chain says.

Sweeping is charged separately at 0.5% of the swept value, collected inside the swap itself. If you do not sweep, you do not pay it. Nothing is charged on a transaction you did not sign.

4 · $SOOT

$SOOT is a token with no claim on any entity, no dividend and no yield. It exists so that trading the sweeper's own coin funds the work and pays the people who hold it.

Why the pair is $EMBER

Because the fee is collected in the pair token, pairing with $EMBER means the holder reward is already EMBER before it is paid — no swap, no synthetic exposure, no treasury conversion. It also removes tokenized-equity exposure from the coin entirely, which is why the US restriction applies to the sweeper (which touches stock tokens) and not to $SOOT.

Why the reserve is BTC

The reserve is the part of the treasury we never spend: a store of value that does not depend on our own coin. We use WBTC because it is the deepest BTC representation on Solana and carries no freeze authority. We deliberately do not use cbBTC: Coinbase retains the right to freeze it. Every BTC representation on Solana is bridged rather than native — see the risks below.

5 · Published addresses

Published here at launch, so they can be checked against the chain rather than taken on trust. Empty until there is something real to put in them.

6 · Risks and disclosures

Tokenized stock tokens are third-party products

They are issued by companies we have no relationship with. They can carry a freeze authority that blocks transfers, and some carry a delegate able to move or burn balances. They can be paused. If an issuer acts, your position is affected and it has nothing to do with us.

Bridged BTC is not native BTC

All BTC on Solana is a representation issued by a bridge, with a mint authority that can create more. WBTC cannot freeze your balance, but it carries bridge risk, and bridge risk is real. There is no way to hold "real" BTC on Solana without this caveat, and any project that omits it is selling you something.

The holder payout runs on somebody else's infrastructure

The platform sets the on-chain creator share to zero and pays out from its own systems — on every coin we sampled. That means our holder reward is executed by their engine, not by an audited program of ours, and we cannot redirect it or guarantee it. Their dashboard has shown failing payout modules. We inherit that failure mode, and you should price it in.

Our own legs run on a keeper we operate

The buy-and-burn and the BTC reserve are executed by a keeper script we run and log. That is a promise with a paper trail, not a program. When it becomes a program, this page will say so.

You are responsible for your own jurisdiction

SootSweeper is not offered to persons in the United States or in restricted jurisdictions. The instruments it touches are issued outside the US and exclude US persons by their own terms. If you are in a restricted jurisdiction, do not use it.

How the regional restriction actually works

This site and these docs are open to everyone — the fee split, the mechanics and the risks are exactly the things people in restricted jurisdictions should be able to read. What is not offered there is the sweeper itself: it routes tokenized stock instruments, and those issuers exclude US persons by their own terms. So the app and the RPC behind it are gated. The information is not.

Be clear about what the gate is. It reads your IP country, which makes it a notice and a barrier rather than an enforcement mechanism — a VPN defeats it, and we would rather say that than imply otherwise. It is also why the app asks you to declare that you are not a restricted person before it will run. Reaching it through a VPN does not change your obligations under your own jurisdiction's rules, and does not make you eligible. Nothing on this site is a substitute for complying with them.

Not advice, not an offer, not a claim

Nothing here is investment, legal or tax advice, and nothing here is an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any security or financial instrument. $SOOT carries no expectation of profit, no dividend, no yield and no claim on any entity. The fee split described above is a distribution of trading fees. Trading involves fees, slippage and the risk of loss. Verify every address yourself before you sign anything.
