Do I need ARB to create a token?
No. Tokenry's fee and the network gas are both paid in ETH, so a wallet that holds only ARB cannot deploy. ARB is the Arbitrum DAO's governance token, which holders use to propose and vote on changes to the network. You never spend it here.
What will I pay in fee and gas?
Tokenry's token creation fee is a flat 0.01 ETH for Standard or 0.03 ETH for Advanced. Gas is the separate transaction fee the Arbitrum network charges. Arbitrum's docs explain that the cost of posting your data to Ethereum is added to the gas your transaction uses. So the network fee your wallet shows already includes it.
How can I check the factory is safe before I sign?
Tokenry's factory, 0x50D4d7C4e05c3C756C4BfB2023f4a13CE5cbfF20, is verified on Arbiscan and is not a proxy, so it cannot be upgraded. Tokenry submits each new token's source code to Arbiscan once the deploy confirms, as long as the page stays open. Until you renounce, the owner can use only the features the token has. These can include minting, taxes of up to 20% each, fee wallets, the holding limit, exemptions and a tax token's swap router.
Does my token go on Arbitrum One or Nova?
Arbitrum One, chain ID 42161. The tool switches your wallet to it and blocks the deployment if the switch fails. Arbitrum Nova, chain ID 42170, is a separate AnyTrust chain that Tokenry does not support. Arbitrum Sepolia, the testnet (chain ID 421614), is not supported either.
How do I get ETH onto Arbitrum One?
Withdraw ETH to your wallet address from an exchange that supports this network. Or bridge it from Ethereum mainnet with the official bridge at portal.arbitrum.io/bridge. Arbitrum's docs put a deposit at about 15 to 30 minutes. Funds left on mainnet do not count, and the balance check stops you before your wallet opens.
Where does my token trade after the deploy?
It trades wherever a pool holds liquidity for it. Tokenry's liquidity pool creator opens Uniswap V2, V3 or V4 pools for 0.002 ETH, paired with ETH, USDC or any token address you paste. Camelot is not offered. If a tax token keeps the default router, its taxes apply in the Uniswap V2 ETH pair made during its deploy.
How long does it take to deploy a token on Arbitrum?
Most of the time is the review screen and your signature. Tokenry starts compiling your contract as that screen opens, since Advanced tokens take longest to build. Arbitrum One then produces a block roughly every 250 milliseconds, according to Arbitrum's research forum.
How do I add a logo to my token page on Arbiscan?
Request a logo update at arbiscan.io/tokenupdate after you sign in to an account there. For a token the factory deployed, ownership is proven with a message signed by the owner wallet and sent through the site's contact form. The logo and token information appear once the request is approved.
