FAQ

Quick answers to the most common questions.

General

Is Kumbaya custodial? No. You always control your wallet and your tokens. Kumbaya never holds your funds.

What chain is Kumbaya on? MegaETH - chain ID 4326 for mainnet, 6343 for testnet.

Do I need ETH to use Kumbaya? Yes, for gas - but transactions cost a tiny fraction of a cent on MegaETH.

Can I use Kumbaya from outside the website? Yes. The DEX is permissionless - anyone can swap, LP, or interact directly via the Uniswap V3 fork. See the developer docs.

Is Kumbaya audited? Yes - the Kumbaya launchpad has a signed BlockSec audit, and the DEX inherits Uniswap V3's Trail of Bits and ABDK audits. See Audit & security for the full breakdown, the bundled BlockSec report, and links to the upstream V3 audits.

Wallets

Do I need a browser extension? No. Kumbaya offers two paths in the connect modal: Kumbaya Wallet (full access; uses Privy and supports either an existing wallet OR email / Google / X / Discord / GitHub / Telegram social login) and DEX only (existing wallet, swap and LP only). See Connect your wallet.

What's the difference between Kumbaya Wallet and DEX only? Kumbaya Wallet gets you the full platform - DEX, launchpad, comments, tipping, profile. DEX only gets you swap and pool features without any social attribution. You can switch later.

Can I export my embedded wallet's private key? Yes. If you signed in via Privy with email or social, Privy provides an export flow. Once you have your private key you can import it into any wallet you want.

I changed my login method and now my balances are gone - what happened? Different social login methods give you different embedded wallets. Sign back in with your original method (email / Google / X / Discord / GitHub / Telegram) and your funds will be there. (This doesn't apply if you connected an existing external wallet - that wallet stays the same regardless of how you sign in.)

Trading

Why did my swap fail? Most likely slippage exceeded your tolerance, or the price moved more than expected between clicking and confirming. Bump tolerance or reduce trade size - see Slippage and gas explained.

How do I trade a token that isn't in the list? Click the token picker, paste the contract address. Always verify the address - anyone can deploy a token with any name.

Liquidity

What's "concentrated liquidity"? A way of providing liquidity where you pick a price range. You earn more fees per dollar while in range, but stop earning when price leaves your range. See What is concentrated liquidity?.

Are my LP positions tokenized? Yes - each position is an NFT in your wallet. You can transfer it like any other NFT.

Launchpad

How does a launchpad token graduate? When the price reaches a configured graduation tick, the bonding curve consolidates into a regular Uniswap V3 pool. See How bonding curves and graduation work.

How do creators earn? Two streams: tips from buyers (the protocol gives buyers a tiny tip-bonus credit on each buy, and buyers can tip creators with it) and post-graduation streaming fees from the consolidated pool. See Creator fees.

Can I rug? By design, no. The bonding curve and tail liquidity aren't yours to pull, and the standard launch flow gives creators no direct token allocation.

My token shows as "Unclaimed" - what do I do? The on-chain creator wallet hasn't been linked to a Kumbaya profile yet. Sign in with that wallet and click Claim. See If your token shows as Unclaimed.
