LAPTOP Memecoin 30 Predictions List: Burn or Charity
The LAPTOP memecoin ties 30% of supply to 30 predictions: the list as published, the odds beside each, who resolves them, and where the burn comes from.
The LAPTOP memecoin’s 30 predictions list is published on laptoptoken.com: 30 real-world events, split into 12 politics, 6 crypto, 5 culture and 7 LAPTOP-specific items, each carrying a slice of the 300 million tokens (30% of supply) set aside for them. If an event happens, its slice is burned; if it does not, the slice is donated to charity.
That is the ritual at the centre of Hunter Biden’s token, which launched on Base on 9 September. The coverage this desk could open names two or three of the events and stops. This desk read the project’s predictions page on 11 September 2026; the plain-text fetch rendered the first 12 items with their slices and the Yes probability the site displays beside each, while the remaining 18 sit behind a “Load more predictions” control that did not render. So here are 12 of 30, stated as such.
What the LAPTOP memecoin 30 predictions list actually says
| # | Event (as worded on the site) | Category | Slice of supply | Yes shown |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Will President Trump be impeached during his term? | Politics | 3% | 66% |
| 2 | Will Democrats win the House in 2026? | Politics | 2.75% | 86% |
| 3 | Will Democrats win the Senate in 2026? | Politics | 2.75% | 48% |
| 4 | Will a Democrat win the 2028 Presidential Election? | Politics | 2.75% | 61% |
| 5 | Will the winner of the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize NOT be Donald Trump? | Culture | 2.5% | 98% |
| 6 | Will the Clarity Act become law by 2028? | Crypto | 1.5% | 42% |
| 7 | Will the FDV of LAPTOP exceed the FDV of TRUMP? | LAPTOP | 1.25% | no live market (Sep 9, 2029) |
| 8 | Will Trump’s approval rating fall below 37% by 2027? | Politics | 1% | 72% |
| 9 | Will U.S. overdose deaths decline year-over-year in 2026? | Culture | 1% | no live market (Dec 31, 2028) |
| 10 | Will the Trump family be pardoned? | Politics | 1% | 78% |
| 11 | Will Bitcoin reach a new all-time high? | Crypto | 1% | no live market (Sep 9, 2029) |
| 12 | Will Benjamin Netanyahu lose the 2026 parliamentary election? | Politics | 0.75% | 73% |
The “Yes shown” column is the probability laptoptoken.com displayed beside each item when we read it, next to a “View market” link; TheCryptoBasic’s pre-launch report attributes the Polymarket tie to the project’s own site. The 12 slices add up to 21.25 of the 30 points, so the 18 items we could not render share 8.75 points between them.
Who decides, and where the burned tokens come from
The resolution procedure is the part the launch-day coverage skipped. Per Coindoo’s account of the foundation’s 10 September statement, Phoenix Veritas Foundation resolves each event and instructs Coinbase Custody to transfer the tokens to a published burn address. The foundation is both the referee and the owner of the whistle.
The same statement, per Coindoo, said two of the 30 events had already resolved Yes, placing 10 million tokens (1% of maximum supply) on course to burn in week one. Coindoo did not say which two. TheCryptoBasic, citing the team’s Medium update, names one: a 5 million-token slice resolved Yes after the artist Beeple mentioned the token; the other was not disclosed. What Coindoo does spell out is where the tokens come from: the prediction allocation is locked for 12 months and then released over 24 months. A week-one burn therefore removes supply that could have entered circulation from late 2027, and nothing from the pool anyone traded on 10 September. When we read the site’s own “Burnt Supply Statistics” counter on 11 September, it still read zero burned and zero donated.
What happens to LAPTOP tokens if the prediction does not happen
They go to charity. The site’s tokenomics section lists a separate 5% charity allocation as well, and TheCryptoBasic reported before launch that 50 million tokens go to charity regardless of the 30 outcomes. The rest, per the tokenomics section of laptoptoken.com: founders 30% (six-month lock, then two years of vesting), liquidity 10%, foundation treasury 5%, Day 1 airdrop 10%, future airdrop 10%, with 350 million tokens unlocked at launch and full unlock at 36 months.
The other supply levers around the ritual
Three quieter mechanics move more tokens sooner. Per Coindoo, earlier disclosures identified loans of 20.5 million LAPTOP to market makers G20 and GSR, which is how inventory existed before public trading despite there being no presale. Eighty million tokens are claimable by Substack and Channel 5 subscribers over 30 days; claims expand what can trade, and unclaimed tokens burn. And from 00:00 UTC on 10 September, four million tokens (0.4% of supply) went to LAPTOP-USDC incentives on Aerodrome. We saw the same shape in a record fee week and the unlock that followed: the visible ritual and the supply that actually moves are rarely the same thing.
What is the LAPTOP prediction mechanism?
Thirty percent of LAPTOP’s supply, 300 million tokens, is split across 30 public events listed on laptoptoken.com, each with its own slice. Yes burns the slice; No sends it to charity. Per Coindoo, Phoenix Veritas Foundation resolves each event and instructs Coinbase Custody to move the tokens to a published burn address.
How does the LAPTOP airdrop work?
Per the project’s FAQ and the airdrops.io listing, the Day 1 airdrop is 10% of supply: 20 million tokens for TRUMP holders with losses, routed through exchanges, and 80 million for Substack and Channel 5 subscribers via claim.laptoptoken.com. Claims run 30 days; unclaimed tokens burn. Another 10% is reserved for a later airdrop with no rules published in the material we could open.
What are the main risks of LAPTOP?
The project’s own site calls it an entertainment memecoin with no utility whose price can fall to zero, and it fell more than 99% from its brief peak on launch day, per Coindoo. Add thin liquidity, 20.5 million tokens lent to market makers, an 80 million-token claim window, and a burn that removes locked supply rather than anything trading today.
The desk’s interest, as ever, is in the instrument rather than the ride. A public list with per-event slices and a named resolver is better instrumentation than most of this market offers, and it belongs to the same genre as the zero-utility disclosure era: the honesty is real, and it is also the pitch. What the ritual demonstrably does is retire future supply on a schedule set by the people who issued it, which is a different thing from holding a price up, as the trending ladder reminds us weekly.
This week’s phrasing of the permanent footnote: a burn is a supply event, not a valuation — memecoins are extremely high risk and frequently go to zero, and nothing on this desk is financial advice.
