Prepare your token
- Connect the creator wallet from the navigation and open Launch a Token.
- Choose a token name and a 1–10 character letter-or-number ticker. Names and tickers do not have to be unique, so always identify a token by its mint address.
- Add a description and optional website or social links.
- Upload PNG, JPEG, or GIF artwork. HYMET center-crops it to 500 × 500 and processes the image used for metadata to a maximum of 1 MB.
- Select the trading fee and divide the creator-controlled 80% between the creator and holders, from 0% to 100%. The split cannot be changed after launch.
- Review the optional initial buy and launch summary. Approve the launch in Phantom and wait for confirmation.
Metadata and registration
HYMET uploads the processed artwork and token metadata through its configured storage service, then checks that the public metadata can be read.
A launch is registered after HYMET verifies the confirmed transaction and matching token details. Keep the mint address and transaction signature available while confirmation completes.
