Launch a token
Open Launch to choose one of three paths. The page compares them side by side; this guide covers the most common one, pump.fun.
1. pump.fun launch
Choose pump.fun launch, fill in the name, ticker, image and links, and enter your creator buy in SOL. Everything you type is saved as a draft, so you can leave and continue later from the Overview. The preview quotes your buy from the live curve and shows the share of supply you will hold. With Pro and an unlocked vault you can add buys from sub-wallets (Free users see this section locked); each must already hold its SOL plus a small reserve for fees. The bundled share is labelled with the thresholds scanners use, so you know how the launch will look to buyers.
Press Review and launch, check the exact amounts, then Confirm and sign. On mainnet the creation and all buys go to Jito as one bundle and land in the same block or not at all; on devnet they are sent one after another. Each transaction shows its own stages and explorer link. When the first transaction confirms the token appears on pump.fun and in your Overview.
2. Liquidity pool
Choose Liquidity pool (or press Open a liquidity pool right after minting a standard token), pick one of your tokens or paste any token mint you hold, and enter the tokens and SOL to pool. The preview shows the starting price, the share of supply pooled and Raydium's creation fee, all read from the chain; if a pool for the pair already exists the page says so. After the pool confirms you can burn all LP tokens, which cannot be undone and makes the liquidity permanent.
