# Launch Checklist

Run through this before you sign — a launch is permanent, so a two-minute review saves a lot.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Launching writes an **immutable** contract on-chain. Several choices can **never** be changed afterward. Confirm everything below before you hit Ignite.
{% endhint %}

## Overview

The wizard validates most things for you, but the final signature is irreversible. Use this list to catch the handful of decisions that lock in at launch.

## Before you launch

* [ ] **Wallet connected** — the wallet you want recorded as the creator is connected.
* [ ] **Correct network** — you're on the chain you intend to launch on (the switch is requested at the final transaction).
* [ ] **Enough native gas** — your wallet holds the chain's native coin (ETH / BNB / SOL) for gas, plus any opening liquidity (v2) and initial buy.
* [ ] **Name + ticker final** — spelled exactly right; they're written on-chain and can't be edited.
* [ ] **AntiVamp-checked** — the name + ticker show as available (not reserved by another wallet, copycat-locked, or graduated-blocked). Non-ASCII identities are rejected on-chain.
* [ ] **Reservation matches** — if you reserved the identity, you're launching the **exact** name + ticker you reserved, from the reserving wallet.
* [ ] **Supply reviewed** — the total supply is what you want; it's fixed forever.
* [ ] **Allocation reviewed** — your creator allocation (0–10%) and its lock (unlocked / 7 / 30 / 90 days) are correct.
* [ ] **Taxes reviewed** — buy/sell rates (0–10% each) and destinations are right; remember tax can only be **lowered** later.
* [ ] **Protection reviewed** — anti-snipe preset and any early-sell fee fit your launch.
* [ ] **Liquidity choice reviewed** — burn vs lock (30 / 90 days / 1 year) is a **permanent** decision.
* [ ] **Initial buy reviewed** — any atomic first buy is within the 10%-of-supply cap.
* [ ] **Image + metadata** — logo uploaded (auto-pinned to IPFS) and socials correct.
* [ ] **Verify before signing** — the Review screen's total-to-send and all settings match your intent.

## What can't change after launch

| Setting                             | After launch                                                |
| ----------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Total supply**                    | Fixed forever — no mint function, no owner                  |
| **No-mint guarantee**               | Permanent — supply can never inflate                        |
| **Name + ticker**                   | Written on-chain, immutable                                 |
| **Image hash**                      | Recorded on-chain at launch                                 |
| **Liquidity lock / burn**           | Permanent once trading begins                               |
| **Creator as launcher**             | Publicly and permanently associated with the launch         |
| **Taxes**                           | Can only be **lowered**, never raised                       |
| **Anti-snipe & early-sell windows** | Auto-expire on their timers; cannot be extended or re-armed |

{% hint style="success" %}
Anything time-boxed (anti-snipe caps, the early-sell fee, allocation and liquidity locks) resolves on its own schedule — you don't need to return and toggle anything.
{% endhint %}

## What happens next?

* Sign once; when the transaction confirms, the token is live and tradable.
* The success screen links to the token page and the explorer.
* Head to [Tracking Your Launch](/creators/tracking-your-launch.md) to watch trades, holders, and fee earnings.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.novamp.io/creators/launch-checklist.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
