Quick start

Launch a token with your own rules in about two minutes.

This walks through a launch: a new token, its whole supply locked in a Uniswap v4 pool against USDC, with rules that make sniping and dumping expensive.

Before you start

  • A wallet such as Rabby or MetaMask. The app adds the Arc network for you when you connect.
  • A little USDC on Arc. USDC is Arc's gas token; a launch costs a few cents. You don't need to provide any liquidity: the whole supply goes into the pool.

Launch in eight steps

  1. 1

    Open the builder

    Go to Build and choose Launch a new token.
  2. 2

    Set the base fee

    Every trade pays at least this. 1% is a common choice; the range is 0.01% to 3%.
  3. 3

    Add blocks

    A good default is Launch guard plus Dump damper. Each block opens a small form with its settings and allowed range.
  4. 4

    Check the fee curve

    The chart shows what buys and sells of different sizes will pay, computed by the real block contracts.
  5. 5

    Name your token

    Name (up to 32 characters), ticker (up to 12), and optionally an image link, website and description.
  6. 6

    Launch

    Confirm one transaction in your wallet. It creates the token, opens the pool and locks the supply.
  7. 7

    Share the pool page

    You're taken straight to it: live fees, the frozen rules, trading and liquidity.
  8. 8

    Collect your fees

    As people trade, claim your share from the pool page or your Portfolio.
