Solana Token Launch Checklist
The complete checklist for going from zero to a live, tradeable token on Solana. Every step uses CoinDevTools — no coding, no CLI, just your wallet.
The checklist
Set up a Solana wallet
Install Phantom, Solflare, or Backpack. Fund with at least 1.5 SOL (covers creation + pool + gas).
Create your SPL token
Solana Token Creator →Name, symbol, supply, decimals, image, and description. 0.3 SOL flat fee.
Revoke mint authority
Revoke Mint Authority →Lock the supply permanently so no new tokens can ever be minted.
Revoke freeze authority
Revoke Freeze Authority →Guarantee that no wallet can ever be frozen for your token.
Make metadata immutable
Make Token Immutable →Lock the token name, symbol, image, and description forever.
Create a Raydium CPMM pool
Raydium CPMM Pool →Pair your token with SOL to enable DEX trading. Sets the initial price.
Burn LP tokens
Burn & Earn →Permanently lock the liquidity. Proves you cannot rug pull.
Verify on Solscan
Check your token, authorities, pool, and LP burn on the block explorer.

FAQ
How much SOL do I need to launch a token?
At minimum, about 0.7 SOL covers token creation (0.3 SOL) and pool creation (~0.4 SOL). Authority revocation and LP burning are free. On top of that, you need SOL for the initial liquidity deposit — the amount depends on your target price and market cap.
How long does the entire process take?
With everything prepared (name, symbol, image, supply decided), the entire process from wallet connection to live tradeable token takes about 15-20 minutes. Each on-chain transaction confirms in under 2 seconds on Solana.
Do I need to create an OpenBook market?
Not if you use the Raydium CPMM v2 pool (recommended). CPMM pools work without an OpenBook market. Only the legacy Raydium AmmV4 pools require an OpenBook market, which adds extra cost and complexity.
What order should I do the steps in?
Follow the checklist order: create token → revoke authorities → make immutable → create pool → burn LP. You must create the token before anything else. Revoke authorities before creating the pool (so the token appears trustworthy when traders discover it). Burn LP tokens last as the final trust signal.
