> **Visual Note:** A translucent "28%" hovers against a bright blue sky with clouds, likely emphasizing a market dominance statistic. The image visually reinforces the post's claim that PONS holds approximately 79.5% market share, with the 28% figure possibly representing a related dominance or growth metric on the RH Chain launchpad.  

> 
> "Currently, I believe $PONS is still the undisputed #1 launchpad on RH Chain.

Despite attempts by Uniswap, SushiSwap, and others to capture market share, the data shows that PONS continues to dominate the entire market:

30-day trading volume: ~$1,087M (approximately 79.5% market"

> **Visual Note:** A screenshot from X (formerly Twitter) shows that the user @deployer has blocked the account, with a note that the account has 12.6K posts and the user can still view public posts but cannot engage, follow, or message @0xDeployer. This image illustrates the poster's claim that Sushiswap and @pools_dot_fun are attempting to "silence" them on X by blocking the account, presumably in response to their criticism of the PoolsClosedRH token.  

> 
> "Sushiswap and 
@pools_dot_fun
 doesn't want you to know that the #2 token on their platform is the BLACKLISTED 
@PoolsClosedRH
 token

They'll remove it from their site, try to silence us on X, but it will be too loud.

The Pool is, and will remain closed."

You left Base.

Looks dead already.

Lmao.

> **Visual Note:** The image displays a cryptocurrency tracking page for a token called "CLOSED" ($CLOSED) paired with WETH on SushiSwap V3 (via Robinhood), showing a price of $0.0001100 USD and a market cap of $110K, accompanied by cartoon artwork of a man by a pool with "POOLS CLOSED" text. This relates to the post's criticism that SushiSwap blacklisted the $CLOSED token, allegedly to capture trading volume while roughly 25% of tokens launched originated from CLOSED.  

> 
> "can't believe that 
@SushiSwap
 pulled such a dirty one by blacklisting $CLOSED

25% of tokens launched came from CLOSED and yet they'll still capture the volume after removing the token from their platform

funny that Uniswap been buying and guarding the pool instead"
