Deploy a PumpCorp for ACE

Deploy a cyberCORP and its ACE round in one transaction through PumpCorpFactory

ACE (Asset Conversion to Equity) is a structured offering, typically under Regulation S and open to non-US persons, in which investors arrive holding a community's tokens and leave holding ACE SAFEs in the issuing corporation. The PumpCorpFactory (src/PumpCorpFactory.sol) and an ACE-configured SAFE extension run it. The live product is ace.metalex.tech.

How PumpCorpFactory deploys an offering

PumpCorpFactory uses the same primitives as CyberCorpFactory. It deploys a cyberCORP suite configured for an ACE offering and creates the round. deployCyberCorp deploys the suite only, and deployCyberCorpAndCreateRoundFor deploys the suite and creates the round in one transaction. The source also contains deployCyberCorpAndCreateOffer, which is marked work in progress and is not in use.

deployCyberCorpAndCreateRoundFor checks that the round's first two party values are the officer's name and address, and verifies two officer signatures:

• the escrowed EIP-712 signature over the round economics (domain "RoundManager"), which the new RoundManager checks, and
• metadataSignature, an EIP-712 signature under the domain "PumpCorpFactory" over the deployment details the escrowed signature does not cover: the corp salt, payout address, round flags, officer, company details, extension data, round party values, legal details, the CyberCertData entries and condition addresses (InvalidMetadataSignature otherwise).

Deployment addresses are bound to the configuration. The factory hashes the caller's salt with the company details, payout address and officer (computeDeploymentSalt) before deploying, and each component factory namespaces the salt by its caller, so another deployer cannot take the predicted addresses with different terms.

Run the offering

The flow follows a standard cyberRAISE round:

1. Deploy the PumpCorp through PumpCorpFactory with the offering parameters: pricing, cap, the agreement template, and a zkPassport-based non-US ICondition for Regulation S gating.
2. Investors submit EOIs and are allocated as in Run a cyberRAISE round.
3. On allocation, each investor receives an ACE SAFE as a Ledger Entry Token (LET) whose security series is SecuritySeries.ACE.

The deploy* parameter lists are long and are not reproduced here. The contract source and the deploy scripts (script/deploy-pump-factory.s.sol, script/deploy-pump-factory-full-lifecycle.s.sol) are the authoritative reference for the ACE deployment shape.
