there are 25 clankers with a market cap of > $100K

out of 13,000

is that distribution really worth 60% of lifetime fees taken from the creator?

The creator can also put in the LP, if they believe in the token. Then they get 100% of the 1% fee. 

I mean, the 60% is "taken" only from the 1% Uni fees on the initial LP that is put by clanker, right?

yep but the token launcher controls 100% of the supply initially, so kinda hard for the creator to put up the LP?

I mean, the "team" does not NEED to launch it with clanker, right? One can deploy a token pretty easy now (even without clanker). 

Also, if the requestor is not a huge account, the snipers are not doing the 2 ETH buys anymore. Majority of clankers I see launched have roughly 35-50k mcap (an hour after launch). That's not a bad entry, again, if you believe in a token/project. 

Buying at that price, and making an LP position should not be... hard. If it's a real project, with marketing and whatnot.

I get it, but I think we're talking about different things. 

I'm not defending the fees structure. I'm just saying, for the ease of launch, the "marketing" that clanker does for the token, the immediate launch, dex, uni and LP, the fee a requestor gets is more than generous. 

E.g. I don't know how to launch a token without clanker. But a proper team "should". Then they control all of the supply, and do whatever they want with it. Right?

real projects are not the majority and typically aren't at the mcap
