Launch settings

Customize everything is the full launch form on /launch. By default it's one long sheet: nine numbered sections on one page, a live preview on the side, and a confirmation sheet at the end. You can also fill it in step by step, one screen at a time (see Long sheet or step by step). This page goes through each section in order: what every control does, its limits and default, and the message you'll see if something isn't right.

If you just want to go live, Quick launch uses sensible defaults for everything below. You can switch between the two tabs at any time: switching back to Quick launch resets the advanced settings to the Quick-launch defaults, but keeps your coin's name, ticker and picture.

Long sheet or step by step#

Under the Quick launch / Customize everything tabs, Layout switches between two ways of showing the same form:

• Long sheet (the default): every section on one page with the live preview beside it. Good for cross-checking everything at once.
• Step by step: one screen at a time with Back and Next at the bottom (on a phone you can also swipe left and right). The bar at the top names the six steps and lets you jump between them:

Next won't move on while the step on screen has a problem: the messages from Every validation message in one place that belong to that step show above the buttons. On Review & launch, the button is the same Launch $TICKER (or Connect … wallet) as the long sheet, followed by the same confirmation sheet.

Both layouts share one form, so switching never loses anything you've entered. Manna remembers the layout you picked on this device.

Quick-launch defaults#

When you use Quick launch, or open Customize everything without changing anything, these are the settings:

1. Chain#

Pick where your coin lives: Solana, Robinhood Chain, Base, BNB Chain, Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon or Avalanche. All nine are live.

Each card says what you get:

• Solana: "Meteora curve · locked on graduation"
• Robinhood Chain: "Locked pool on graduation"
• Base, BNB Chain, Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Avalanche: "Uniswap v4 · locked forever"

On the seven newer EVM chains your connected wallet signs and pays for the launch on that chain. One-tap cash covers launches on Solana and Robinhood Chain only.

Switching chain resets the pair to the chain's native coin, clears the dev buy and the starting market cap, and trims the ticker to fit the new chain's limit.

2. Your coin#

The ticker is cut to the chain's byte limit as you type. A plain character is 1 byte, an accented letter 2 and an emoji 4, so an emoji ticker fits fewer characters.

Messages you might see:

3. Pair it with anything#

Marked Locked at launch. "People buy your coin with this asset, and your fees are paid in it. Pair with a stock and your coin moves with that stock."

Pairs are grouped in tabs:

The full list of pairs and their starting market caps is in Curves and graduation.

Paste any token#

Paste a mint address (Solana) or a 0x address (EVM). Manna looks it up and shows "Found SYMBOL · N decimals".

• On Solana: "Meteora only accepts standard SPL mints." If the address isn't a token mint, you'll see "That address is not a token mint".
• On EVM: "The contract checks the token on your first buy and rejects transfer-tax tokens." An invalid address shows "Not a valid 0x address".
• Coins with a custom pair get a "Custom pair" tag on Discover.
• Until a token resolves you'll see "Paste a valid token address" and can't launch.

Starting market cap#

For Manna coins and Paste any token, a Starting market cap field appears, in units of the pair. It sets the price your coin opens at: the market cap of the full 1B supply at the first trade. Leave it empty to use the placeholder (1,000 units for a pasted token, 1,000,000 for a Manna coin). Listed pairs always use Manna's preset start market cap.

Graduation#

Pick Light, Normal (default) or Heavy. Each card shows how much has to be raised and the market cap at graduation, in dollars when Manna has a price for the pair. "Raised" is what buyers put in before it graduates; mcap is the coin's value at that point.

Details in Curves and graduation.

Where it trades (EVM only)#

If you added a Tithe rule and pick Bot-ready, you'll see: "Tithes only work on the Manna curve, so yours will be skipped on a bot-ready coin."

4. Your fee#

"Your fee on every buy and sell, on top of Manna's 1%."

• A slider from 0% to 10% in steps of 0.1%, plus shortcuts: 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 5%, 10%.
• The panel shows what traders pay per trade: your fee plus Manna's 1%. At 3% you see "4% total".
• Outside 0 to 10% you'd see "Fee must be 0-10%" (the slider doesn't let you get there).

Mark, Manna's mascot, gives a one-line reaction: zero fee is "Pure community play", up to 2% "traders will love you", up to 5% "the sweet spot", up to 8% "spicy", and above that "max harvest".

5. Who gets your fee#

"This splits your fee. Keep it all, or share it. Shared fees go out automatically every 15 minutes."

Pick one of 9 presets, or Custom. Surprise me picks a random preset.

Below the presets you see a colored bar of your split and two numbers: "You earn per 10K traded" and "Shared per 10K traded", in the pair asset.

• AI credits: pick Claude, GPT, Gemini or Grok. Every 15 minutes your fee buys AI credits for everyone holding your coin, split by how much they hold. 1 credit = $0.01 of AI. See Manna AI.
• Custom: set each of the 7 slices with − and + in steps of 5%. The total must be 100%, or you'll see "Fee split must add up to 100%".

Your share goes to (Solana only)#

When your fee is above 0% on Solana, you can send the "You" slice to someone else: Me, X, Telegram, GitHub, Email or Wallet. Fees for an X, Telegram, GitHub or email account wait safely until that person signs in to Manna with it.

Everything about splits and recipients is in Fee routes.

6. Dev buy (optional)#

"Buy your own coin in the same transaction as the launch, so you're first in line before any bot."

• Type an amount in the pair asset, or tap a shortcut. Shortcuts depend on the pair: SOL 0.1, 0.25, 0.5; ETH and WETH 0.001, 0.002, 0.005; USDC and USDG 5, 10, 25; stocks and other pairs 0.05, 0.1, 0.25. The newer EVM chains' native coins (BNB, POL, AVAX) get their own shortcuts.
• You see "You get about" (tokens) and "Share of supply".
• Empty means "No dev buy. Totally fair launch."
• On EVM chains your dev buy counts toward the team cap. Over it you'll see "Over your team cap of 5%. Lower the amount or raise the cap below." (with your own cap) and the error "Dev buy is over the team cap".

Lock my dev buy (on once you enter an amount):

• On Robinhood Chain with rules, and always on Base, BNB Chain, Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon and Avalanche: "Locked for 30 days inside the launch itself."
• Otherwise (Solana, and Robinhood Chain without rules): pick 1 week, 1 month (default), 3 months, 6 months or 1 year. The tokens move into an on-chain lock right after launch.

Get DEX PAID (Solana only): "Right after launch, Manna puts your logo, banner and links on DexScreener with the DEX PAID badge. You confirm and pay on the next screen."

Details in Dev buy and locks and Creator tools.

7. Sniper shield#

A switch turns the shield on or off (on by default).

A bar chart shows the fee a sniper pays second by second, worked out exactly as the chain charges it for the type, time and creator fee you picked. With a 10-second shield and a 1% creator fee: Flat 90% is 90% every second; Fading is 99% at second 0 and 14.1% at second 5, on every chain. The Quick launch screen has the same type picker. Team wallets get a public "Team" badge. Adding an invalid address shows "Not a valid 0x address".

Full mechanics with worked numbers: Sniper shield.

8. Rules#

"Rules are enforced on every transfer and can never be changed after launch. Pick a template or build your own."

Pick a template (No rules, Fair launch, Slow start, Diamond hands, Anti-dump, Chapters, Stock-market hours, Members club) or tap Add a rule (19 available) to switch rules on one by one. Each active rule shows its own settings.

On Solana, this section currently reads: "Solana rules run in Manna's own transfer-hook program, which switches on once it's deployed to Solana mainnet. Until then, Solana launches go out without rules. Every rule already works on Robinhood Chain and the other EVM chains."

Every rule, its limits and its validation messages: Trading rules.

9. Extras#

Holders-only chat: "Only wallets holding your coin can post on its page." Off by default.

Preview and launch#

The Preview panel updates as you go: ticker, name, chain, and lines for Paired with, Fee, Fees go to, Dev buy, Sniper shield, Rules, Graduation, Trades on and Gas. Under it:

• Any problems are listed, and the launch button stays disabled until they're fixed.
• "Supply is fixed at 1B and mint is revoked. Every trade pays 1% to Manna."

Tap Launch $TICKER (or Connect … wallet first). The confirmation sheet "Launch $TICKER?" lists the chain, the pair "(locked forever)", the fee per trade, your split, the dev buy and the shield. Then:

• "Pair, fee and split can't be changed after launch."
• Solana: "Your wallet will ask you to approve 2 transactions."
• EVM: "Your wallet will ask you to approve the launch."

Tap Send it. When the coin is live, Manna opens its page automatically. On EVM chains, your wallet then asks you to approve Manna's $1 launch fee, sent only after the launch succeeds.
