How to Create an ERC-20 Token on Optimism

1

Connect your wallet

Connect MetaMask, WalletConnect, or any wallet set to OP Mainnet. This wallet pays the fee, receives the full token supply, and becomes the contract owner.

2

Choose Standard or Advanced

Pick a Standard ERC-20 token (0.01 ETH) for a clean fixed supply, or Advanced (0.03 ETH) to add transaction taxes, auto-liquidity, auto-burn, and anti-whale limits.

3

Configure your token

Set your token name, symbol, and total supply. Advanced tokens also let you set buy, sell, and transfer taxes, fee-collector wallets, and the maximum any single wallet can hold.

4

Review and deploy

Check your configuration and the deployment fee, then sign one transaction. Deploying on OP Mainnet costs cents in gas and confirms in seconds.

5

Verified and live

Your contract source is verified on the Optimism block explorer automatically. Share the address, add liquidity on Velodrome or Uniswap, and your token is ready to trade.

Frequently Asked Questions

The Tokenry fee is 0.01 ETH for a Standard token or 0.03 ETH for an Advanced token, plus gas. Optimism is an Ethereum L2, so gas is paid in ETH but costs a fraction of a cent, nothing like mainnet. You pay once per deployment, keep 100% of the supply, and there is no subscription or cut of your token.

The Superchain is the family of chains built on the OP Stack, the framework Optimism created. Base, Unichain, and other OP Chains all run on it, which is why they share tooling and standards. Your token is a normal ERC-20 that lives on OP Mainnet; it is not automatically present on every OP Chain, but standard bridges move ERC-20 tokens between Superchain networks, so reaching them later is straightforward.

No code, and yes it is verified. Tokenry builds the token from a standard OpenZeppelin base, deploys it, and submits the source to the Optimism block explorer, so the contract shows up verified and readable. Because it comes from a known template rather than custom code, there are no hidden mint functions or owner backdoors.

Velodrome is Optimism's leading native DEX and holds a large share of OP Mainnet liquidity, which makes it the usual first venue for a new token; Uniswap runs on Optimism as well. Pair your token with ETH to open a market, and use a V2-style pool if your token charges a transaction tax, since V3 concentrated liquidity does not support fee-on-transfer tokens.

The token is the same ERC-20 standard, and Optimism settles its transactions to Ethereum, so the security model is Ethereum's. The difference is cost and speed: a deploy costs cents in gas on Optimism and confirms in seconds, a fraction of the same deploy on Ethereum mainnet. Mainnet keeps an edge on raw exchange credibility; Optimism trades that for near-zero fees.

Advanced tokens include buy, sell, and transfer taxes up to 20% each, automatic burns, auto-liquidity, anti-whale wallet caps, and multiple fee-collector wallets. Each tax splits by the ratios you set, and on Optimism's low gas the swaps behind those mechanics cost almost nothing to run.

The wallet you deploy from owns the contract and holds the entire supply; Tokenry keeps no keys and cannot touch it. Once your tokenomics are set, you can renounce ownership to make the contract immutable, which is a common trust signal for community and governance tokens.

Yes. A Standard fixed-supply token covers memecoins and simple community tokens, and Advanced covers projects that want trading taxes or rewards. Optimism's builder-heavy, public-goods-minded community is a natural fit for governance and community tokens in particular.

Create an ERC-20 on OP Mainnet Without Code

Tokenry lets you launch an ERC-20 on Optimism with nothing but a form. Connect a wallet set to OP Mainnet, enter a name, symbol, and supply, pick your features, and sign one transaction. The deploy costs cents in gas and confirms in seconds, and the wallet you use ends up holding the full supply and owning the contract.

No Solidity, no compiler, no manual verification. Tokenry generates the contract from a standard OpenZeppelin base and submits the source to the Optimism block explorer as soon as it deploys, so holders can read the code rather than trust a hash. Tokenry keeps no keys and takes no share of your token.

The Chain That Invented the Stack

Optimism is not just another L2, it is the origin of the OP Stack, the open framework that Base, Unichain, and a growing list of OP Chains are all built on. Launching on OP Mainnet means launching on the reference implementation of the most-forked L2 architecture in Ethereum, which comes with the deepest tooling maturity and the longest live track record of any chain in that family.

That Superchain context matters for reach. Because OP Chains share standards, a token that starts on Optimism sits inside an ecosystem designed to interoperate, and standard bridges move ERC-20 tokens between those networks when you are ready to expand. You are deploying at the hub, not at the edge.

A Layer 2 With a Mission

Optimism is run by the Optimism Collective, a community with an unusual focus for a blockchain: funding public goods. Through Retroactive Public Goods Funding, the Collective channels a share of network value back to the builders and projects that make the ecosystem useful, governed by the OP token and a two-house structure.

For a lot of chains that would be a footnote, but here it is part of the identity, and it shapes who builds on Optimism. If you are launching a governance token, a community token, or a project that wants to align with a builder-first, public-goods culture, the chain you deploy on says something, and Optimism is the one that says this.

Standard vs Advanced, and Where to List

A Standard token is a clean, fixed-supply ERC-20, just a name, symbol, decimals, and supply, with no owner controls left over. An Advanced token adds taxes on buys, sells, and transfers, automatic burns and liquidity, anti-whale caps, and multiple fee wallets, the mechanics trading and community tokens use. Supply logic stays immutable for holder safety, so moving from Standard to Advanced means a fresh deployment rather than an edit.

Once your token is verified on the Optimism explorer, open a market by pairing it with ETH on Velodrome, Optimism's native DEX, or on Uniswap. Advanced tokens with auto-liquidity keep that pool topped up from taxes as volume grows. From there, post charts on DEXScreener and DexTools and share your contract address. When the tokenomics are final, renounce ownership to lock the contract, or manage an Advanced token from the Tokenry Token Manager.
