Why Solana for a new crypto coin?

Solana finalises blocks in under 400 ms and charges a fraction of a cent per transaction. That combination makes it the cheapest and fastest L1 to make a crypto coin on in 2026 — a full launch (mint + metadata + Raydium pool) costs roughly the price of a coffee, versus hundreds of dollars for the same flow on Ethereum mainnet.

The 7-step guide

  1. Step 1. Choose a name, ticker, and supply

    Pick a memorable name, a 3–5 character ticker, and a total supply. Most memecoins use 1,000,000,000 with 9 decimals.

  2. Step 2. Design a 512×512 logo

    PNG or JPG under 200 KB. This becomes your Phantom, Solscan, Jupiter, and Dexscreener icon.

  3. Step 3. Fund a Phantom wallet with ~0.25 SOL

    You'll need 0.18 SOL service fee + ~0.02 SOL rent/network + buffer for the Raydium pool later.

  4. Step 4. Open the SolanaForge crypto coin creator

    Go to /create, connect Phantom, and fill in the token details form.

  5. Step 5. Enable authority revokes

    Toggle Revoke Mint, Freeze, and Update authority — these are trust signals holders check on Solscan and SolSniffer.

  6. Step 6. Sign one transaction

    Phantom pops up once. The mint, IPFS metadata, and revokes all happen atomically in a single block.

  7. Step 7. Seed a Raydium CPMM pool

    From the /pool/create page, pair your new coin with SOL. Within minutes it appears on Dexscreener, Birdeye, and Jupiter.

What you get after launch

  • A real SPL token on Solana mainnet, tradable on Jupiter and any Solana DEX.
  • On-chain Metaplex MetadataV3 so wallets and explorers show your name, symbol, and logo.
  • A public /t/{mint} landing page indexed by Google — shareable on X and Telegram with a rich preview.
  • Optional revoked mint/freeze/update authority — verifiable on Solscan as an immutability signal.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to know how to code to make a crypto coin on Solana?

No. SolanaForge is a no-code Solana crypto coin creator — you fill out a web form and Phantom signs one transaction. Behind the scenes it uses the SPL Token Program, Metaplex MetadataV3, and Pinata IPFS.

How much does it cost to make a crypto coin on Solana?

0.18 SOL service fee + ~0.02 SOL for Solana network rent and fees. Adding a Raydium CPMM liquidity pool is separate (~0.2 SOL plus whatever SOL you seed the pool with).

How long does it take to launch a Solana coin?

Under 60 seconds from clicking Create to a live token on mainnet. Adding liquidity on Raydium takes another 1–2 minutes.

Will my coin appear on Phantom and Dexscreener?

Yes. Phantom picks up the on-chain Metaplex metadata immediately. Dexscreener indexes your token automatically within minutes of seeding a Raydium pool.

Can I make my crypto coin trustless?

Yes — revoke mint, freeze, and update authority in the same transaction as the mint. Holders can verify on Solscan that no one (including you) can mint more, freeze wallets, or change the metadata.
