A runner is dying
The first token launched here is a runner, and so is every token that bonds. When a runner loses half its value inside five minutes, the pot buys it back, a quarter of the pot at a time, and burns every token it buys. It stops once the runner has climbed back.
Every token has 9 lives. Each time the pot spends on it, one is gone. After the ninth it is dead, and the pot moves on to the next one.
