Launching a coin is easy. The hard part is not losing money to the people who prey on new creators, and not looking like a scam to your own buyers. Here is how to avoid both.
Scams that target new creators
- "Launch services" that want your seed phrase or private key. No real launchpad ever needs them. Anyone who asks is trying to empty your wallet. Never type your seed phrase into a website, a form or a chat.
- Fake launchpad sites. Copies of real sites with a slightly different web address. Check the address bar every time, and bookmark the real one.
- Volume bots and "guaranteed trending" packages. Paid fake trading. It costs you money, buyers spot it on-chain, and it often comes from the same people who then dump on you.
- "KOL" promotion for an upfront fee. Many take the money and post once, or never. If you do pay anyone, pay small amounts after they deliver.
- Telegram "support" DMs. Real admins don't message you first. Anyone who DMs you offering help with a stuck transaction is a scammer.
Make your coin trustworthy to buyers
Buyers check a new coin in seconds. These are the things that make them stay:
- Mint revoked, so you can't print more and dump.
- Liquidity locked, so the pool can't be pulled.
- No hidden wallets holding a big share of the supply.
- An honest dev buy: if you buy your own coin at launch, say so. Buyers can see it on the coin page anyway.
On MemeLaunch these are set for you by default:
- $0 to launch: you only pay Solana's own rent and network fees, roughly 0.02 SOL.
- Mint revoked: nobody can ever print more of your coin. You pick the supply at launch (1 billion by default, anywhere from 1 million to 1 trillion).
- Freeze revoked: nobody can freeze holders' wallets.
- Liquidity locked at graduation by default: when the bonding curve fills, its liquidity moves into a DEX pool and locks permanently. A creator can choose instead to control 90% of it (10% always stays locked), and every page then shows buyers a clear warning.
- Anti-sniper fee: trades pay about 5% in the first seconds, sliding to the normal 1% over roughly 2 minutes, so bots can't grab all the cheap supply.
- Creator earnings: 0.4% of every trade goes to the creator, claimable any time from My Coins.
- Non-custodial: you connect your own wallet and approve every transaction. MemeLaunch never holds your keys or funds.
Launch it safely, step by step
- Go to memelaunchs.com yourself. Don't follow a link from a DM.
- Connect your own wallet. You'll only ever be asked to approve transactions, never to share a phrase or key.
- Fill in your coin and launch. Then share your coin page link, which shows your logo and name as a preview on X and Telegram.
Common questions
Does a launchpad ever need my seed phrase?
No. A real launchpad only asks your wallet to approve transactions. Anyone asking for a seed phrase or private key is trying to steal from you.
How do buyers know my coin is not a rug pull?
On MemeLaunch every coin's mint is revoked and, by default, its pool liquidity locks permanently at graduation. Both are visible on the coin page and on Solana Explorer.
Should I pay for volume bots or trending packages?
No. Fake volume shows up on-chain, costs money, and drives real buyers away.
