#### Safe, open-source, providing the most convenient one-stop experience for Solana users.

Solana is a high-performance, decentralized smart contract platform based on blockchain technology, designed to provide developers with a highly scalable and low-cost blockchain infrastructure. Through its innovative consensus mechanism and high-throughput network architecture, Solana achieves the capability to process thousands of transactions per second while maintaining low latency and low transaction costs, offering developers and users an unparalleled blockchain experience.

It takes only one minute to issue SPL tokens on the Solana chain.

### How to Use the Solana Token Creation Tool

1. **Connect Your Solana Wallet**
2. **Enter the Full Name and Symbol** you want to set for your project token
3. **Upload the Token Logo Image** (recommended size: 1000x1000 pixels)
4. **Set Token Precision** (decimal places) and **Total Supply**
5. **Fill in the Description** you want to set for your project token
6. **Set Token Metadata Modification Permissions, Freeze Permissions, and Minting Permissions**
7. **Create the Token**, sign the transaction, and wait for the token creation to complete

### Preparation:

* A computer or a mobile phone
* A Solana wallet (Phantom Wallet installation tutorial)
* At least 0.13 SOL in your wallet
* Token logo and related information

### Specific Steps:

1. **Connect Solana Wallet**

SlerfTools currently supports various popular Solana wallets, such as Solflare, Phantom, OK Wallet, etc. This guide uses Phantom Wallet as an example.

#### About Token Precision:

Token precision defines how small a unit the token can be divided into. The maximum precision for SPL tokens is 9. Common precision settings are:

* **6** for utility tokens
* **9** for high-precision applications
* **0** for NFTs

You can refer to the following value settings for guidance.

| Decimals | Maximum Supply             | Common Issuance |
| -------- | -------------------------- | --------------- |
| 9        | 18,446,744,073.709551615   | 1 billion       |
| 8        | 184,467,440,737.09551615   | 10 billion      |
| 7        | 1,844,674,407,370.9551615  | 100 billion     |
| 6        | 18,446,744,073,709.551615  | 1 trillion      |
| 5        | 184,467,440,737,095.51615  | 10 trillion     |
| 4        | 1,844,674,407,370,955.1615 | 100 trillion    |
| 3        | 18,446,744,073,709,551.615 | 1 quadrillion   |
| 2        | 184,467,440,737,095,516.15 | 10 quadrillion  |
| 1        | 1,844,674,407,370,955.1615 | 100 quadrillion |
| 0        | 18,446,744,073,709,551.615 | 1 quintillion   |

3. Add Social Links for Your Project (Optional)&#x20;

If you want users to join your community or learn about your project

4. #### Token Metadata Modification Permissions, Freeze Permissions, and Minting Permissions Settings

* **Metadata Modification Rights**: "Renounce Ownership" means you will not be able to modify the token metadata.
* **Freeze Rights**: If you renounce freeze permissions, it means you will not be able to freeze tokens in the holder's wallet.
* **Minting Rights**: "Renounce Minting Rights" is necessary to make investors feel more secure and for the success of the token. If you renounce minting rights, it means you will not be able to mint additional token supply.

5. Create the token, sign the transaction, and wait for the token creation to complete.

> After clicking "Create Token," the source data file (Metadata) for the token information will be generated first.&#x20;
>
> This process takes about 10 seconds. After that, the wallet will be activated for signing, and the token creation will be completed on the blockchain.

6. After the creation is successful, you can see the token address at the bottom of the webpage&#x20;

or view the newly created token information in the browser and wallet.

## FAQs:

1. **Does issuing tokens on Solana require contract open-sourcing?**
   * **Answer**: No, tokens on Solana are created through accounts using officially published contracts. All SPL20 tokens use the same contract.
2. **Why doesn't the wallet display the logo?**
   * **Answer**: Phantom Wallet sometimes has delayed information. Please wait patiently for a while. You can also search for the token information on Solana Explorer.
3. **Under what circumstances should permissions be discarded?**
   * **Answer**: Generally, tokens that need to be added to Raydium require the renouncement of freezing and minting permissions. Metadata modification permissions can be chosen at your discretion. If you renounce metadata permissions, the token name and logo cannot be updated.
4. **Is there a fee to upload the logo?**
   * **Answer**: No, our platform uses IPFS storage, which is completely free.
