02Coin or token
Do you need your own coin, or a token?
A coin has its own network. A token borrows someone else's. Know which one you need before you create your own coin.
Another pathA token
A coin that lives on someone else's chain
- Runs on Ethereum, BNB Chain or similar
- No network of your own to run
- Holders pay fees in that chain's coin
- Their rules, their upgrades

03Where you start
Fork a coin or start from a chain base.
Twelve proven starting points to launch your own coin, priced by how much work they take. Pick one, and the hard engineering is already done.
FORK a proven coin's rules, your name and supplyBASE a framework for your own networkTimes shown are defaults you can change
Not sure which one? Start with what you want people to do.
You want miners
People with hardware earn your coin by securing it. Pick Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin or Bitcoin Cash, the way plenty of altcoins began.
Proof of work chains
You want staking
Holders lock coins to approve blocks and earn rewards. No mining rigs. Pick Cosmos, PIVX or Ethereum.
Proof of stake chains
You want smart contracts
Apps, tokens and MetaMask on your own network. Pick Ethereum, BNB Chain, Avalanche L1, Tron or Solana.
How forking a coin works
Avalanche L1 note. Validator fees on an Avalanche L1 are paid to the Avalanche network in AVAX. They are not part of our price, and the builder tells you before you pay.

A premine is coins created at launch, before mining starts. If you choose one, its keys are made in your browser, never on our servers.
Rules that never change are why people trust a chain. Take your time here. Want help with supply? Read our tokenomics guide.

08After launch
A live chain is the start. People are the point.
The chain is the easy part now. Here is the work that turns it into something people use.
- 01
Share your explorer link
The first thing a curious person wants is proof the chain is real. Send them the explorer.
Add a block explorer - 02
Bring miners or validators
More independent machines make your chain stronger. A pool makes mining easy to join.
Add a mining pool - 03
Write a whitepaper
Say why the coin exists, who it is for and how it works, in plain words.
Whitepaper guide - 04
Plan your tokenomics
Who gets coins, when, and why. Get this right before anyone buys.
Tokenomics guide - 05
Get listed on trackers
Sites like CoinGecko make your coin findable. They have their own rules.
CoinGecko listing guide - 06
Grow a community
Show up every week. Answer every question. Ship small things often.
Read how a Bitcoin fork grows
The honest part. Many new coins never find users. The platform gives you a working chain. It cannot give you a community, a listing or a price. That part is yours, and it is worth doing well.
09Clear lines
What the platform does, and what it does not.
Trust starts with knowing where the edges are.
Does
- Builds, launches and runs your chain, automatically, about 30 minutes after payment.
- Keeps it hosted and online, on at least two nodes.
- Gives you the server logins and a dashboard for every step.
- Shows every price before you pay, hosting included.
Does not
- Hold your private keys. Ever.
- List your coin on an exchange or promise a price.
- Promise buyers, users or profit.
- Give legal or tax advice.
10Questions
Questions before you create your own blockchain
The questions people search for, answered straight.
Is creating a blockchain hard?
It used to be. You needed developers, servers and weeks of testing. Here you pick a base, fill in a short form with safe defaults, and pay. The platform does the hard part, automatically.
How long does it take to create your own blockchain?
About 30 minutes after your payment confirms, for every base, Solana included. Your dashboard shows each step as it happens.
How much does it cost to create your own cryptocurrency?
From $149 to $399 one-time for the chain, depending on the base coin. Add-ons start at $79. Hosting starts at $9 per server a month, and the builder shows your exact total before you pay.
Can I create my own cryptocurrency for free?
A token on an existing chain can cost little more than network fees. Your own blockchain needs servers running all day, so it is never truly free. Here it starts at $149 one-time.
Is it illegal to make your own crypto coins?
In most places, creating a coin is legal. Selling it to the public, promising returns or running an exchange can bring rules about securities, money and tax. Rules differ by country, so ask a lawyer where you live. This is not legal advice.
Is making your own cryptocurrency profitable?
Only if people want to use it. A coin is worth something when a community holds it, uses it and builds on it. The platform gives you a working chain. It cannot promise a price, a listing or buyers.
What is the difference between a coin and a token?
A coin runs on its own blockchain, with its own nodes, explorer and wallets. A token lives on someone else's chain, such as Ethereum. Our coin vs token guide helps you choose.
Can I change the rules or add things later?
Add-ons, yes: an explorer, wallets, a pool and more can be added any time from your dashboard. The genesis rules, like supply schedule, block time, halving and consensus, are fixed once the chain is live. That is what makes people trust them.
Do I own the keys to my blockchain?
Yes. You get the logins to your servers, and premine keys are created in your browser. We never hold your private keys.
Which coins can I pay with?
BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC, BNB, SOL, TRX, LTC, DOGE and XMR. The checkout shows the exact amount and keeps it fixed for 20 minutes while you pay.
