# What is a Bonding Curve?

A **bonding curve** is a pricing mechanism that determines the price of a token based on its supply. As more tokens are bought, the price per token generally increases according to a pre-defined mathematical function (e.g., linear or exponential). This approach creates a dynamic, automated pricing system that reflects demand.
