🟑 How Can I Show People That My Token Is Safe?

You’ve created your own token—awesome! But now your friends ask: “Is this safe? Is it a scam?” 😬

Here’s how to make your token look trustworthy (even if it’s just for fun).

 

πŸ” Set Revoke & Freeze Authorities

These features show people you’re taking token safety seriously.
They let you stop suspicious transfers or burn stolen tokens if needed.

  • Revoke Authority: Lets you disable minting or changes
  • Freeze Authority: Lets you pause suspicious wallets

Set these at launch via Solana Token Creator with one click.

 

🌐 Upload Metadata to IPFS

IPFS (InterPlanetary File System) ensures your token image, name, and description are permanently stored and tamper-proof.
It makes your token look professional—and hard to fake.

 

🧾 Publish Token Details

Make a simple post or page that shares:

  • Token name and symbol
  • Total supply and utility (if any)
  • Creator wallet (for transparency)

Bonus: Share it on Twitter or Discord for extra visibility πŸ’¬

 

🧠 Bonus Tip: Lock Mint Authority

Want to prove you won’t print more tokens? Lock your mint authority forever.
You can do this after launch using Phantom + tools like Solscan.

 

βœ… Final Thought

A “safe” token isn’t just about code—it’s about trust.
Simple steps like freeze settings, IPFS, and transparency go a long way πŸš€
