Collect and Release: How the JustCoin Lab Runway Works
A plain-English guide to collecting and releasing JCv1 tokens, including fixed runway pricing, collect fees, full release refunds, ATA rent return, and why the runway gives new tokens room to find lift.

JustCoin Lab is built around a simple runway model.
A JCv1 token does not start with a creator-controlled supply, a token tax, a hidden mint, or a market-making promise. It starts with a fixed-rule runway.
Collectors can collect tokens from the runway. Collectors can release tokens back to the runway. Tokens can transfer normally outside the runway.
That is the core loop:
Collect. Release. Transfer freely. No weirdfoolery.
The Runway Price Is Fixed
While a token is on its JCv1 runway, the base collect price is fixed by the protocol.
The current JCv1 runway model uses:
- —10,000,000 displayed tokens
- —4 decimals
- —100,000,000,000 raw units
- —100 SOL full-runway reserve
That creates a clean pricing identity:
1 raw unit = 1 lamport
Since each displayed token has 10,000 raw units, the base collect cost is:
1 displayed token = 10,000 lamports
In regular SOL terms:
1 displayed token = 0.00001 SOL
So if you collect 1,000 displayed tokens, the base collect cost is:
1,000 × 0.00001 SOL = 0.01 SOL
That base amount goes into the token’s runway reserve.
The runway price does not move because more people collect. It does not climb on a curve. It does not change because the creator wants it to change. It does not depend on outside markets.
The runway is fixed.
Collecting From the Runway
When someone collects a JCv1 token from the runway, two things happen:
- 1.The collector pays the base collect cost.
- 2.The collector pays a disclosed 1% collect fee over cost.
The base collect cost goes into the token reserve.
The 1% collect fee is separate. It does not enter the reserve.
That fee is split:
- —70% to the creator
- —30% to the platform
So the creator earns only from the disclosed collect fee, not from taking the token reserve.
That distinction matters.
The reserve belongs to the runway. It is what makes release work. When collectors release tokens back to the runway, the reserve is where the base return comes from.
Example Collect
Suppose a collector collects:
1,000 tokens
The base collect cost is:
1,000 × 0.00001 SOL = 0.01 SOL
The 1% collect fee over cost is:
0.0001 SOL
The total paid before normal Solana network fees is:
0.0101 SOL
The flow is:
- —0.01 SOL → token reserve
- —0.00007 SOL → creator
- —0.00003 SOL → platform
The collector receives 1,000 tokens.
The reserve increases by the base amount. The token’s runway record updates. The vault holds fewer tokens. The collector now holds the tokens in their wallet.
Releasing Back to the Runway
Release is the other side of the runway.
A collector can return tokens to the runway and receive the base amount back from the reserve.
There is no JustCoin Lab release fee.
Using the same example:
1,000 tokens released
The base return is:
0.01 SOL
That is the same base amount used when those tokens were collected from the runway.
The original 1% collect fee is not returned. Normal Solana network fees are also not returned. But JustCoin Lab does not charge a release fee.
So the release rule is simple:
- —Return tokens to the runway.
- —Receive the base runway amount back.
- —No JustCoin release fee.
Full Release Also Returns Token Account Rent
There is one more useful detail.
When a collector first receives a token, their wallet may need an Associated Token Account, often called an ATA. That token account carries a small rent deposit on Solana.
If the collector releases their full balance of that JCv1 token, JustCoin Lab closes the now-empty token account and returns that token account rent deposit to the user’s wallet.
That is what the Release All action is for.
A normal release returns the base runway amount for the tokens released.
A full release also:
- —closes the empty token account
- —returns the token account rent deposit
That does not return the original collect fee. It does not return network fees. But it does clean up the empty token account and return the ATA rent deposit.
That is a small but important part of the runway idea.
If someone is done, they should have a clean way back.
Transfers Are Different
Collect and release are runway actions.
Transfers are different.
Once tokens are collected, they are standard transferable SPL tokens. They can move wallet-to-wallet outside the JustCoin Lab runway.
JustCoin Lab does not charge a token transfer fee. There is no token tax. There is no JustCoin fee on ordinary external transfers.
External transfers do not automatically affect the runway reserve. They are just token transfers.
If outside markets appear, they are independent. JustCoin Lab does not create them, manage them, promise them, or enforce their prices.
The runway remains the runway.
Why This Matters
Most token launches throw a new token straight into uncertainty.
JustCoin Lab gives the token a runway first.
Early collectors can participate under fixed rules. The creator can earn a disclosed collect fee when people collect. The token reserve grows with base collects. The release path remains available under the same rule.
The runway does not promise takeoff.
It gives the token room to find lift — and a defined path back if it does not.
That is the difference.
No owner mint. No token tax. No hidden controls. No release fee. No moving runway rules.
The Short Version
On JCv1:
1 displayed token = 0.00001 SOL base collect cost
When you collect:
- —Base cost → token reserve
- —1% collect fee → split 70% creator / 30% platform
When you release:
- —Tokens return to runway
- —Base amount returns from reserve
- —No JustCoin release fee
When you release all:
- —Your empty token account closes
- —Your token account rent deposit is returned
That is the runway.
Collect. Release. Transfer freely.
JustCoin Lab. There is no rug.
