How to launch a token on Robinhood Chain

Three things, and none of them is code:

• An EVM wallet — MetaMask, Rabby, Coinbase Wallet, or any of the usual suspects.
• A little ETH on Robinhood Chain for gas. Not much: a simple transaction costs a fraction of a cent. See the wallet setup guide for how to add the network and bridge funds.
• A name, a ticker, and an image. That is the whole creative brief.

You do not need Solidity, a compiler, a Hardhat project, or an audit. The contract is deployed from a reviewed preset — you are configuring it, not writing it.

1. Get some ETH onto Robinhood Chain. Gas is paid in ETH. Bridge a small amount from Ethereum using the Arbitrum bridge portal, or a fast bridge like Across or Relay. You need very little — gas on Robinhood Chain costs fractions of a cent.
2. Add the network and connect your wallet. Add Robinhood Chain (chain ID 4663) to MetaMask or any EVM wallet, then connect it to Greenlit. Adding a network grants no spending permission.
3. Name your coin. Pick a name, a ticker, and upload an image. Optionally add a description and links to your site, X, or Telegram. This is the metadata traders will see everywhere your coin appears.
4. Optionally buy in at launch. You can bundle a first purchase into the same transaction that creates the coin. This is atomic — your buy lands in the same block as the launch, so nobody can front-run you into your own token.
5. Sign once. A single wallet signature deploys the fixed-supply token and opens its official Uniswap v4 pool together. Before it broadcasts, Greenlit checks every contract involved against the reviewed build and blocks the launch outright if anything does not match.
6. It is live. The coin is tradable the moment the transaction confirms — no presale, no bonding curve, no migration step. Share the link, and claim your share of trading fees whenever you like.

Start to finish, this takes about a minute — most of which is spent choosing a name.

On Greenlit, nothing. There is no platform creation fee — you pay only Robinhood Chain gas, which is typically a few cents.

This is worth checking wherever you launch. Several general-purpose token creators charge a flat fee of roughly $35, or around 0.01 ETH, to deploy the same kind of ERC-20. That fee buys you a contract, and nothing else — no pool, no liquidity lock, and usually no ongoing revenue.

Greenlit makes money only when your coin actually trades: we take 0.28% of swap volume. If your coin never trades, we never earn anything. That alignment is deliberate.

Every swap on your coin’s pool pays a fixed 0.80% fee, and 60% of it is yours — that is 0.48% of all trading volume, on buys and sells alike, for as long as the coin trades.

Concretely: $100,000 of volume pays you $480. A coin that does that every day for a month has paid its creator about $14,400. That is the whole business model — you are not selling a bag, you are earning a toll.

Fees accrue onchain, in the pool contract itself. They are not an IOU on our books, and we cannot withhold them. Claim them whenever you want from your creator dashboard, and rotate the payout wallet whenever you want without asking anyone’s permission.

Most memecoin disasters are not market moves. They are the same four mechanical betrayals, over and over. Every Greenlit launch is built so that none of them is possible:

• Pulling liquidity. Liquidity is locked at launch. There is no withdraw button, for anyone, including us.
• Printing more supply. Supply is fixed at deployment. The contract has no mint function to call.
• Freezing your sells. There is no pause switch, no blacklist, and no transfer tax that can be turned on later. A coin that cannot be sold — a honeypot — cannot be built this way.
• A rigged migration. There is no bonding curve and no migration. The real Uniswap v4 pool exists from block one, so there is no later moment at which liquidity moves and something can quietly go wrong.

None of this is a promise on a marketing page. Before every launch the app compares each contract involved against the runtime hashes reviewed for that build, and a mismatch blocks the launch. That check is the thing the name refers to: a coin is greenlit because it passed, not because we say so.

Locked liquidity and fixed supply remove the mechanical rugs. They do not make a memecoin a good investment, and we are not going to pretend otherwise.

The overwhelming majority of memecoins go to zero. A creator can still walk away. Holders who bought early can still dump on you. Liquidity can be thin enough that selling moves the price against you badly. None of that is a bug in the contract — it is what the asset class is.

Launch one because you want to build something people rally around, and because a toll on its volume is a real business. Do not put in money you cannot afford to lose, and read the risk disclosure before you trade. Greenlit is independent and is not endorsed by or affiliated with Robinhood.
