How to make a crypto token on Solana
This guide outlines the basic steps to create a meme token on Solana (without code).
-
Process: Takes about 10 minutes.
-
Cost: 1 SOL for creation + initial liquidity (minimum 1 SOL, recommended 2-3 SOL, optimal 10 SOL). Consider these costs completely gone.
This guide is only for showing how quick and easy it is, without any code/programming, so always be cautious about investing in new and unknown tokens, it doesn't really take much to create one.
The token we're going to create is: Ekp8DAiKmVZDBG7e1FYakzjVnzct6qda8S265ZvWn1YN
Part 0: Marketing
To gain traction for your new coin, consider these strategies:
-
Community Building: Engage with potential users on social media platforms like Telegram and Share your project's goals and roadmap to spark interest.
-
Incentives: Distribute a small amount of your coin (airdrop) to early community members to encourage participation.
-
Presale (Optional): A presale allows interested users to buy your coin before it's publicly available. This can raise funds for development and generate early interest.
No one will buy your coin without marketing, you will just watch bots removing your initial liquidity.
