Create a Token on Arc, With the Fee and Gas in USDC

Arc token cost in USDC: base fee, features and gas

Every Arc token starts at a 30 USDC Tokenry fee, plus 5 USDC for each paid feature. Mintable plus Burnable makes a 40 USDC Tokenry fee, and all 6 paid features make 60 USDC, each plus gas.

The Tokenry fee goes to Tokenry. Gas goes to the network, also in USDC, and is usually a small amount. Keep enough USDC in your wallet for both the fee and the gas.

The fee is paid inside the transaction that creates the token. If that transaction fails, it reverts as a whole and the Tokenry fee is not taken, but the gas it used is spent. If the deploy is slow to confirm, you are not charged twice.

What each feature switch adds to an Arc token

The Arc token creator builds your token from OpenZeppelin's audited library.

Anti-whale caps how much one wallet can hold ("Max wallet") and how much one trade can move ("Max per trade"). Each limit is 0.5% to 100% of supply. Up to 20 "Exempt addresses", such as a presale contract, can skip the limits; the owner's wallet and every DEX pool already do.

Mintable lets the owner mint more tokens later. An optional supply cap sets the ceiling. Burnable lets holders burn their own tokens. Pausable lets the owner pause and unpause every transfer. Blacklist lets the owner stop chosen wallets from moving the token. Votes lets holders take part in DAO votes once they delegate.

Renounce at creation makes sure the token never has an owner: while it is on, the form greys out Mintable, Pausable, Blacklist and Anti-whale, because those features need one.

Which Arc token settings stay fixed after the deploy

The name, symbol, decimals, supply cap, feature set and exempt addresses of an Arc token are fixed permanently at creation. A token with only Burnable, Votes or no features has no owner functions, so nobody can change it.

If your token has an owner, the owner can later use only the features you picked. With Anti-whale, the owner can raise (never lower) or remove the limits. Ownership can be transferred, or renounced permanently. You change your token's settings after launch in the Token Manager, which charges no Tokenry fee, only gas.

Your new token on Arc Explorer

After the deploy, you get your Arc token's contract address (CA) and links to the token and the transaction on Arc Explorer. Once the deploy confirms, Tokenry submits the token's exact source for verification. After verification, an explorer shows an exact match, not a similar match, because each token compiles from its own source.

Anyone can also check that a token came from Tokenry's factory, the contract that creates every Tokenry token on Arc. Calling isToken on the factory at 0xD1f1DA33b2934981aDe31f6AD525f0D1646114F5 returns true only for its tokens.

After the deploy: a USDC pool and an airdrop on Arc

Your Arc token does not trade until it has a liquidity pool. To launch a memecoin on Arc, or any token people can buy, create a liquidity pool on Arc next. Tokenry's pool tools on Arc use Uniswap v3 and v4, and the pool creator charges a 10 USDC Tokenry fee plus gas. A token with Anti-whale or Blacklist can be paired only with USDC, on Uniswap v4.

To send the token to many wallets, airdrop your token on Arc for a 0.1 USDC Tokenry fee per recipient, plus gas. Every Arc tool sits on the Arc token tools page.
