Everything checkable, one page

One page. Every line can be checked on a public explorer or a linked source. The items in square brackets do not exist until the launch, Sunday, Sept. 6, 23:30 CEST; this page is rebuilt with them the same minute. Version 3.2, Sept. 5, 2026.

The token

Item	Fact	Where to check
Name, ticker	Fold, FOLD	Explorer token page
Type	Community meme token, ERC-20	Contract source on explorer
Chain	Robinhood Chain, chain id 4663, an Arbitrum-stack layer 2 settling to Ethereum, public mainnet since July 1, 2026	https://robinhoodchain.blockscout.com, https://docs.robinhood.com/chain/
Contract address	`[FOLD CONTRACT ADDRESS]`	Published at 23:30 CEST Sunday on the website and X

Admin functions	The creator has none over the token or the pool. The contracts are PAIR's.	Explorer, contract pages
Liquidity	One Uniswap v4 pool, FOLD/AAPL. Every position is locked permanently in PairV4Locker, a contract with no withdraw function, from the launch transaction onward. No one, including the creator, can withdraw it.	Launch transaction: `[LINK]`
Fees	PAIR's 1% swap fee on every trade, split 70% to the creator and 30% to PAIR. No transfer tax. Every creator claim is published with an explorer link before it is spent.	PAIR interface, explorer
Anti-snipe	Launch block plus five: no single buy over 5.5% of supply, no wallet over 5%. Sells never restricted; caps lift automatically.	PAIR docs
Creator wallet	`[CREATOR WALLET ADDRESS]`. Holds only FOLD bought in the open at launch. Pledged not to sell any FOLD before Oct. 5, 2026; the pledge is public, not a smart-contract lock. Any change would be announced one day in advance.	Explorer, wallet page
Creator	A pseudonymous, Paris-based builder, referred to as "the creator". Discloses being the creator, holding FOLD bought at launch and receiving 70% of the swap fee in every media contact.	This sheet, the disclosure page

The pairing

Item	Fact	Where to check
Pool	FOLD trades in a Uniswap v4 pool against the AAPL Stock Token, created by PAIR. Buying FOLD puts AAPL tokens into the pool; selling takes them out.	Pool: `[POOL ID]`
Pairing token	"Apple • Robinhood Token" (AAPL Stock Token), `0xaf3d76f1834a1d425780943c99ea8a608f8a93f9`, 18 decimals, about 17,600 tokens on-chain when checked Friday evening	https://robinhoodchain.blockscout.com/token/0xaF3D76f1834A1d425780943C99Ea8A608f8a93f9
Who issues it	Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited, under its own terms. It is a tokenised debt security giving economic exposure to the underlying share without ownership. Only an authorised participant can mint or redeem it, which in practice happens when the underlying market is open. Not offered to persons in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, per the issuer.	https://docs.robinhood.com/chain/stock-tokens/
FOLD's relationship to it	None beyond the pool. The creator is not the issuer, has no relationship with the issuer and makes no statement about that token beyond what its issuer publishes.	Disclosure page

What FOLD is not

Not a tokenised stock. It does not represent, hold or follow Apple shares or any security.
Not backed by any asset, reserve, revenue or business.
Not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to Apple Inc., Robinhood Markets, Inc., Robinhood Assets (Jersey) Limited, Arbitrum, Uniswap, PAIR (beyond using it as the launch venue) or any exchange. "Apple" and "AAPL" appear only as the name of a public company and a public ticker.
Not an investment product. No roadmap, no promised utility, no listings promised, no buybacks, no vault.
Not a promise of anything. Meme tokens mostly go to zero. FOLD can too.

The ritual

Holders (and anyone else) fold a real paper crane, photograph it and post it on X with #stayfolded and the first six characters of a wallet address.
Each crane is counted on the "thousand crane wall" on the website: https://stay-folded.com/#cranes
The reference is senbazuru, the Japanese tradition that folding one thousand cranes grants a wish. One thousand cranes on the wall is the community's first milestone.
Mascot: Ori, a small coral-orange origami crane. Original artwork; never drawn with an Apple product or a Robinhood mark.
Taglines: "Paper hands? We fold paper." and "Markets close. Cranes don't."

The installation

What: 1,000 orange paper cranes, folded by hand, installed as a single flock.
Where: Paris. Exact location shared with press on request from Saturday night, through the X account.
When: Sunday, Sept. 6, 2026, [TIME] to [TIME] CEST. Photographers welcome; the creator will be present but not on camera.
Press access: no accreditation needed. High-resolution photos of the installation will be added to the press kit by Sunday evening, released for editorial use.
