Frequently Asked Questions

Solbase is a multi-chain token launcher that lets you create tokens on Solana and Base blockchains in about 60 seconds. No coding knowledge is required. You connect your wallet, fill out a simple form, and deploy your token directly to the blockchain.

Solbase is designed for creators, communities, entrepreneurs, and anyone who wants to launch a token without hiring developers or learning to code. Whether you are building a meme coin, a community token, or a project utility token, Solbase makes the process accessible.

No. Solbase handles all technical aspects automatically. You fill out a form with your token details and click deploy. The platform manages smart contract deployment, metadata storage, and token account creation behind the scenes.

No. Solbase does not require account creation. Your crypto wallet serves as your identity. Connect your wallet and you are ready to create tokens immediately.

Solbase currently supports two blockchains: Solana and Base. Solana is a high-speed Layer 1 blockchain. Base is an Ethereum Layer 2 built by Coinbase. You can create tokens on either chain or both.

Solbase is available in most countries. However, users in certain jurisdictions including Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, and the Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk regions cannot use the platform due to regulatory restrictions.

The entire process takes approximately 60 seconds. This includes connecting your wallet, filling out the token details form, and waiting for blockchain confirmation. Solana confirmations typically take a few seconds. Base confirmations take anywhere from a few seconds to about 30 seconds.

You need a token name, a token symbol (typically 3 to 6 characters), and a total supply amount. Solana tokens also require a logo image, and you can optionally add a description and links to your website, X, Telegram, and Discord. Base tokens only need the name, symbol, and supply. Having these details ready before you start makes the process faster.

Yes, technically you can use any name. However, using names of established tokens may confuse users and could create legal issues. We recommend choosing a unique name that represents your project.

You can set a total supply up to 1 trillion tokens. The minimum supply is 1 token, and the supply must be a whole number. Choose a supply that makes sense for your project and community size.

Partly. Your token's supply is fixed (on Solana, as long as mint authority is revoked, which is the default), and a Base token's name and symbol can never be changed. On Solana, metadata is mutable by default, so your wallet stays the update authority and can update the name, symbol, or logo later with standard tools, unless you chose to make the metadata immutable at launch. Always double check your token name, symbol, and supply before confirming the transaction.

On Solana, a logo is required. You can upload a PNG, JPG, WebP, or GIF image, and it is automatically cropped to a square 512×512 PNG and stored on IPFS with your token metadata. Base tokens do not have a logo upload because ERC-20 tokens store no logo on-chain.

Yes, but not through Solbase. ERC-20 tokens store no logo or links on-chain, so there is nothing to upload at launch. After your token is live, you can apply to add a logo through Basescan's token info update form (Basescan asks for the contract's source code to be verified first) or through listings such as CoinGecko.

Mint authority is the permission to create more tokens after launch. Solbase revokes it by default on Solana, which permanently fixes your supply. You can choose to keep it, but explorers and token scanners will flag that as a risk because the creator could mint more tokens. Base tokens have no mint function at all, so their supply is always fixed.

Freeze authority is a Solana permission that lets its holder freeze tokens in other people's wallets. Solbase never sets a freeze authority, so no one, including you and Solbase, can freeze holders' tokens. Base tokens created with Solbase likewise have no ability to freeze or blacklist holders.

After creation, your token exists on the blockchain permanently. You receive the full supply in your connected wallet. You own the token and can transfer, distribute, or add liquidity as you choose.

Yes. You can create as many tokens as you want on either blockchain. Each token deployment is a separate transaction with its own fee.

Yes. You can create tokens with the same name and symbol on both chains. They will be completely separate tokens with different contract addresses, allowing you to have presence in both ecosystems.

Solbase charges a flat platform fee of 0.01 SOL per Solana token or 0.001 ETH per Base token, with no percentage fee. You also pay standard network costs. On Solana that means about 0.01 SOL for Metaplex's metadata fee (paid to Metaplex, not Solbase), roughly 0.009 SOL in account rent deposits, and a tiny network fee, for about 0.03 SOL all-in. On Base you pay gas, which is typically a few cents.

Solbase accepts cryptocurrency only. Pay with SOL for Solana token creation or ETH for Base token creation. The fee is included automatically in the same transaction that creates your token.

No. Solbase has transparent pricing with no hidden costs. The launch form shows the platform fee and an estimated total cost before you confirm any transaction. There are no monthly subscriptions or premium tiers required for basic features.

Solana and Base have different network architectures and fee structures. On both chains a simple transfer usually costs a fraction of a cent. Base fees rise mainly with demand on Base itself; since Ethereum's 2024 Dencun upgrade, Base posts its data to Ethereum cheaply as blobs, so Ethereum mainnet congestion matters much less than it used to.

The Solbase platform fee is only charged on successful token deployments. On both Solana and Base, the fee is part of the same transaction that creates your token, so if that transaction fails or you reject it, the fee is never taken. A failed transaction that reached the network may still cost a small network fee.

No. Blockchain transactions are irreversible and fees cannot be refunded. This is why we encourage you to review all details carefully before confirming deployment.

For Solana token creation, Solbase supports Phantom, Solflare, and Coinbase Wallet, plus Backpack and other Wallet Standard wallets, which are detected automatically. Phantom is the most popular choice among Solana users.

For Base token creation you need a regular (EOA) wallet: MetaMask, the Coinbase Wallet app or browser extension, Phantom, Rainbow, Rabby, Trust Wallet, or another WalletConnect-compatible wallet. Smart-contract wallets such as Base Account (Coinbase Smart Wallet), Safe or Argent can't deploy a token contract directly, so they aren't supported for Base launches.

Yes. Solbase is non-custodial, meaning we never have access to your funds or private keys. All transactions are signed in your own wallet. We do not store sensitive information. Your tokens go directly to your wallet upon creation.

No. Solbase never requests or has access to your private keys or seed phrase. All wallet interactions happen through standard wallet connection protocols. Never share your private keys with anyone.

Solbase collects minimal data. We use Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights, which are cookieless and only report aggregated usage. For Solana tokens, the logo and metadata you provide, including any social links, are stored publicly on IPFS. Blockchain transactions are public by nature. There are no accounts and no database of users or tokens, and we do not collect personal information or require email addresses.

Your tokens are secured by your wallet. As long as you keep your private keys and seed phrase safe, only you can access your tokens. Use strong security practices including hardware wallets for significant holdings.

If you lose access to your wallet, you lose access to your tokens. Solbase cannot recover tokens or wallet access. Always backup your seed phrase securely and consider using a hardware wallet.

Choose Solana for maximum speed, lowest fees, and access to the established meme coin community. Choose Base for Ethereum ecosystem access, existing MetaMask users, and institutional credibility. Neither is universally better. The right choice depends on your project goals.

Solana is faster, with a target block (slot) time of about 200 milliseconds since October 2026, down from 400ms. Base produces a block every 2 seconds, with sub-second preconfirmations. Both feel nearly instant to users, but Solana has the edge for raw speed.

Solana typically has lower and more predictable fees. Simple transactions usually cost a fraction of a cent on both chains, and Base fees rise when Base itself is busy. Launching a token through Solbase costs about 0.03 SOL all-in on Solana versus 0.001 ETH plus gas on Base, so the dollar cost of each depends on the current SOL and ETH prices.

Solana has the most established meme coin culture with deep liquidity on decentralized exchanges like Raydium and Jupiter. The community tends to be highly engaged traders who move quickly on new projects, making it the popular choice for meme coins.

Tokens created on Solana and Base are separate and independent. They do not automatically bridge between chains. You can create tokens on both chains with the same branding, but they will have different contract addresses and exist in separate ecosystems.

Base is a Layer 2 blockchain built on top of Ethereum by Coinbase. It inherits Ethereum security while offering significantly lower fees and faster transactions. Base uses ETH for gas fees and connects to the broader Ethereum DeFi ecosystem.

Solana wallets usually show a new token right after creation; on Base, wallets such as MetaMask may need you to import it with the contract address from the success screen. You can also view it on blockchain explorers. Use Solscan for Solana tokens and Basescan for Base tokens. The success screen provides direct links to your token, and every token also gets a public Solbase page at solbase.app/tokens/{chain}/{address} showing its on-chain details with links to the explorer, DexScreener, and swap. Tokens you launch from this browser are also listed on the Your Tokens page.

Share your token contract address so others can find and add it to their wallets. You can also share the block explorer link or your token's public Solbase page. The Solbase success screen includes share buttons for social media.

Your token exists on the blockchain immediately but trading requires liquidity. Without liquidity on a decentralized exchange, people can hold and transfer your token but cannot buy or sell it through trading.

Adding liquidity requires pairing your token with another asset on a decentralized exchange. For Solana, popular options include Raydium, Orca, and Meteora. For Base, most creators use Uniswap or Aerodrome. Liquidity provision has its own risks and considerations.

No. Solbase creates your token and mints the full supply to your wallet, but it does not provide liquidity, list tokens on exchanges, or market them. You create a liquidity pool yourself on a decentralized exchange, and promotion is up to you and your community.

Liquidity refers to assets deposited in a trading pool that allow buying and selling. Without liquidity, there are no tokens available for others to purchase. You as the creator typically provide initial liquidity by pairing your token with SOL or ETH.

Yes, you can burn tokens by sending them to a burn address. This permanently removes them from circulation. However, this is an advanced action done outside of Solbase through direct blockchain transactions.

Announce your token on social media platforms like X, Discord, and Telegram. Share the contract address and block explorer link. Build community around your project. Consider the purpose and utility of your token beyond just trading.

First, make sure your wallet extension is installed and unlocked. Try refreshing the page. Check that you are on the correct network in your wallet. For Base tokens, ensure you are connected to Base network, not Ethereum mainnet. If problems persist, try a different browser.

Transactions can fail for several reasons including insufficient funds for fees, network congestion, or wallet connection issues. Check your wallet balance and try again. If the problem continues, wait a few minutes as the network may be congested.

Some wallets require you to manually add custom tokens. Copy your token contract address from the success screen or block explorer. In your wallet, look for an option to import or add a custom token and paste the address.

Network fees fluctuate based on blockchain congestion. During high activity periods, fees may be higher than typical. You can wait for lower congestion or proceed with the current fee. On Solana, most of the cost beyond the 0.01 SOL platform fee is Metaplex's metadata fee and account rent deposits, so expect about 0.03 SOL in total. Solbase shows the platform fee and an estimated total before you confirm.

This is normal for new tokens. Wallet value displays are based on market price data. New tokens without trading activity or exchange listings will not have a tracked value. This does not affect your actual token holdings.

No. Once a blockchain transaction is submitted, it cannot be cancelled. Transactions are either confirmed or fail based on network processing. This is why reviewing all details before confirming is important.
