According to ME News, on September 9 (UTC+8), Ozzy, founder and lead developer of Pons, tweeted that the claim circulating in the market—that Pons allows post-launch modification of tax rates—is inaccurate. He explained that some trading terminals route trades to pools with higher tax rates, even though Pons’s initial Uniswap V4 pool has ample liquidity and a 0% tax rate (charging only a 1% hook fee, with all transactions publicly disclosed). When malicious actors launch a vamp (vampire attack—creating a competing pool with the same token but higher taxes to siphon trading volume), terminals may display an elevated tax rate. This figure fluctuates due to routing misconfigurations and the specific pools selected by the terminal, but it does not indicate that the official pool’s tax rate has been altered post-launch. Ozzy stated he has requested relevant terminals to fix this issue, as it harms users and generates unnecessary FUD. (Source: Foresight News)

Summary
On September 9 (UTC+8), Pons founder Ozzy addressed news regarding the token launch, clarifying that the high tax rate issue arises from terminal routing errors, not protocol design. He emphasized that Pons pools on Uniswap V4 begin with a 0% tax and only impose a 1% hook fee. On-chain data shows that malicious actors exploit routing by creating high-tax pools to mislead users. Ozzy urged terminals to resolve the issue to prevent FUD and protect traders.
