How To Launch A Memecoin on BNB Chain – A Step-by-Step Guide

Memecoins remain one of the most enduring phenomena in crypto because of the way it combines humor, culture, and community engagement with blockchain technology. Recently, we published a blog highlighting the key considerations for creating your own memecoin. 

Today, we're taking it a step further. In this blog, we’ll show you the specific, actionable steps and strategies you can take to successfully launch a memecoin on BNB Chain.

Creating a Memecoin On BNB Chain: The Various Approaches

You can find multiple meme launchpads on our Memecoin Solution page and create your meme coins.

Here are three approaches you can take to launch your meme tokens:

• Bonding curve
• Prelaunch
• Set up a liquidity pool

Approach 1: Using a Bonding Curve Launchpad

A bonding curve launchpad is a decentralized mechanism where tokens are minted and sold based on a price curve. This method ensures fair distribution and price discovery. In this example, we will be using the Four.meme platform.

Step 1: Connect your wallet

Visit the Four.Meme platform and connect your wallet to get started. You can choose from a variety of wallets that support the BNB Chain and the Four.Meme platform, such as Binance Wallet (integrated with the Binance app; download the Binance app for access), Trust Wallet, or any other compatible wallet. Ensure your wallet is funded and ready for transactions to proceed seamlessly.

Once connected, click on Create Token.

Step 2: Fill in wallet details

Next, complete the required fields on the [Create Token] page as follows:

1. Token Details:
   • Enter the Token Name and Ticker Symbol (e.g., MEMECOIN, MEME).
   • Provide a Description that highlights your token's purpose or theme.
2. Upload Logo:
   • Upload an image (logo) with a file size of less than 5MB.
3. Token Information:
   • Select the Raised Token (the token to be paired with your memecoin, e.g., BNB).
   • Provide your Website URL and links to your Social Media Handles (e.g., Twitter and Telegram). This is optional.
4. Token Tag:
   • Select MEME as the token tag to categorise it appropriately.

When done, click the “Insufficient Assets: button.

Step 3: List your tokens

Now, your token will be list on the board. When the Bonding curve hits 100%, the liquidity pool will automatically be created on PancakeSwap.

Approach 2: Using a Prelaunch

You can use a prelaunch platform like Pinksale to launch your memecoins. This is what you need to do. Launching a presale on Pinksale is a streamlined process that allows you to raise funds, build a community, and prepare your token for a successful launch. 

Step 1: Verify Your Token

To begin, visit the Pinksale platform and connect your wallet. You can use wallets that are compatible with the BNB Chain, like Trust Wallet. Once your wallet is connected, select "Launchpads" followed by "Create Presale." 

If you already have a token, input its address to link it to the presale. If not, you can create a new token directly on the platform. Specify the currency you want to use for fundraising—BNB is the default option, but you can also choose stablecoins for your presale by following this guide.

Next, select a fee option and determine whether you want auto-listing (where liquidity is added automatically after finalization) or manual listing (where you manage liquidity addition manually). 

Step 2: Input Presale Information

In this step, you will define the parameters of your presale. Key details to input include:

• Presale Rate: This determines how many tokens contributors receive per BNB (or other currency) during the presale.
• Whitelist Option: If you have a whitelist of approved contributors, enable this feature. You can enable or disable it at any time.
• Soft Cap and Hard Cap: The soft cap is the minimum amount required to proceed, while the hard cap is the maximum target. The soft cap must be at least 25% of the hard cap.
• Refund Type: Choose between a refund or burn mechanism if the presale does not meet the soft cap.
• Liquidity Allocation: Specify the percentage of raised funds to be allocated to liquidity (minimum 51%, maximum 100%).
• Listing Rate: This is the initial token price in the liquidity pool. Typically, the listing rate is set lower than the presale rate to ensure a higher listing price.
• Start and End Times: Ensure the presale start time is set before the end time.
• Liquidity Lockup Period: Indicate the duration (in days) for which the liquidity pool will remain locked.
• Vesting Schedule: If applicable, set up a vesting schedule for contributors using the Vesting Contributor feature.

Review the calculated total tokens required for the presale, which will appear above the navigation buttons. You can also use the Pinksale Calculator to optimize your tokenomics. Once all parameters are set, click "Next" to continue.

Step 3: Add Logo, Socials, and Website Information

Upload a logo URL and input your project’s official website link. Also add in relevant social media information.

Step 4: Finalize and Launch the Presale

In the final step, review all the details entered during the previous steps. This is your last opportunity to make any necessary changes. 

If everything looks correct, click "Approve Spending Token" to authorize Pinksale to use the required tokens for the presale. Confirm the transaction in your wallet and click "Submit" to finalize the presale setup.

Once submitted, your wallet will prompt you to confirm a transaction fee. After approving the fee, your presale will go live on Pinksale. The platform will display the presale link, which you can share with your community to start attracting contributors.

Approach 3: Set up a Liquidity Pool

Let’s see how you can deploy a memecoin by setting up a liquidity pool.

Step 1: Prepare Token Information

Before deploying your token, ensure you have all the critical details finalized:

• Token Name: Select an official, memorable name for your memecoin.
• Token Logo: Upload a high-resolution imagel.
• Token Description: Craft a concise, engaging description explaining the token’s purpose, utility, and unique features.
• Token Supply: Define the total number of tokens to be minted. This will form the foundation of your tokenomics.
• Token Allocation: Develop a detailed distribution plan, specifying how tokens will be allocated for public sales, team reserves, and ecosystem incentives.
• Designated Target Addresses: Create 4–5 wallet addresses for specific purposes such as liquidity pools, token locking, and ecosystem reserves. Use wallets compatible with the BNB Smart Chain, such as Binance Wallet or Trust Wallet.

Step 2: Select a Meme Launchpad

To simplify deployment, choose a launchpad platform like Four.Meme, We have explained to you how the platform works in “Approach #1.” They also provide business development support to guide you through the deployment process. You may reach out to the following for assistance:

• Telegram: @EddieFour
• Email: support@four.meme

Step 3: Circulating Token Allocation

Once the Token Generation Event (TGE) occurs, a portion of your tokens should be designated as circulating supply. These tokens will be automatically added to a liquidity pool.

• Use platforms like PancakeSwap or Thena to create a liquidity pool.
• Opt for a single-sided V3 concentrated liquidity pool to maximize capital efficiency. This setup helps reduce slippage and ensures a better trading experience for buyers.

Step 4: Establish a Token Locking Mechanism

To build investor confidence and ensure long-term project stability, lock certain portions of your tokens.

• Allocate locked tokens to the designated addresses specified in your tokenomics.
• Follow a structured distribution schedule for unlocking these tokens. This could include vesting over months or years.
• Use locking tools like PinkLock to monitor and enforce these mechanisms.

Step 5: Manage Liquidity Pool Revenue Distribution

Liquidity pools (LP) generate revenue from transaction fees. Currently, LP revenue distribution requires manual execution.

• Extract LP revenue periodically
• Distribute the extracted revenue to designated addresses for reinvestment or operational use.
• The Four.Meme team offers support in managing this process if required.

Step 6: Work with Market Makers

Market Makers (MMs) play a crucial role in ensuring liquidity pool performance. Designate a reliable MM to:

• Maintain price stability and reduce token volatility.
• Optimize liquidity pool performance by monitoring market activity.
• Implement operational plans tailored to your token’s goals and trading volume.

Step 7: Token Information Integration

To increase visibility and accessibility, list your token on reputable information platforms.

• Register your token on platforms like CoinMarketCap or ave.ai.
• Wallets and dApps can then integrate your token information seamlessly, improving user experience and trust.
