# Creator Overview

Everything a creator needs to take a token from idea to a live, tradable pool on Novamp.

{% hint style="info" %}
On EVM chains your token trades on a **real DEX pool from block zero** — no bonding curve, no graduation. On `🟪 Solana`, launches start on a Pump.fun bonding curve that graduates to a real AMM. Pick the path that fits your project.
{% endhint %}

## Overview

Launching on Novamp is a guided wizard that ends in a single signature. You choose a chain, name your token, tune its economics and protections, and confirm — the rest is atomic and on-chain. This page maps the full journey and links to each step.

## How it works

```mermaid

  A[Configure in wizard] --> B[AntiVamp identity check]
  B --> C[Review & confirm]
  C --> D[Sign]
  D --> E{Chain}
  E -- EVM --> F[Live DEX pool, tradable now]
  E -- Solana --> G[Pump.fun bonding curve]
  G --> H[Graduates to PumpSwap]
```

* **EVM** (`🟢 Robinhood Chain` `🔵 Base` `🟡 BNB Chain` `⚪ Ethereum`): one transaction to `NovampLaunchFactory.launch(p)` deploys the token and seeds the pool. Tradable immediately.
* **Solana** (`🟪 Solana`): the launch is server-prepared; you sign as the Pump.fun creator and the token trades on a bonding curve until it graduates.

## What you'll need

| Requirement          | Detail                                                                                 |
| -------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Wallet**           | Connected, on your chosen network (EVM wallet, or a Solana wallet for Pump.fun)        |
| **Native gas**       | The chain's native coin — ETH, BNB, or SOL — for gas (+ opening liquidity/initial buy) |
| **Name + ticker**    | Final and AntiVamp-checked; non-ASCII is rejected on-chain                             |
| **Image + metadata** | A logo (auto-pinned to IPFS) plus optional description and socials                     |

## The creator journey

1. **Choose a chain** — decide zero-fee vs tax token, and where liquidity is deepest. See [Supported chains](/welcome-to-novamp/supported-chains.md).
2. **(Optional) Reserve your identity** — hold a name + ticker so nobody front-runs it. See [Reserve a name & ticker](/identity-protection/reserving-a-name-and-ticker.md).
3. **Configure the token** — logo, name, ticker, socials, and tokenomics in the wizard. See [Launch a Token](/creators/launching-a-token.md).
4. **Set supply & allocation** — fixed supply, your slice (0–10%), optional lock and initial buy. See [Supply, Allocation & Initial Buy](/creators/supply-and-allocation.md).
5. **Set protections** — anti-snipe caps and an optional early-sell fee. See [Anti-Sniper Protections](/creators/anti-snipe-and-protection.md).
6. **Choose taxes & liquidity** — optional buy/sell tax, and burn or lock. See [Token Taxes](/creators/taxes.md) and [Liquidity & Pools](/creators/liquidity-and-pools.md).
7. **Review & ignite** — confirm the permanent-launch checkbox and sign.
8. **Track it** — token page, Discover, and your creator profile. See [Tracking Your Launch](/creators/tracking-your-launch.md).

{% hint style="success" %}
Not sure where to start? The wizard's **Fair Launch** preset is the default: no allocation, no tax, strict anti-snipe, and permanently held liquidity — the strongest fairness signal.
{% endhint %}

## What happens next?

* Your settings are live and **disclosed on the token page**; anti-snipe and early-sell windows auto-expire.
* You earn **half of the 1% Novamp swap fee** on every trade of your token, forever (`🟪 Solana` uses the 0.3% pool fee, 60/40). See the [Fee model](/protocol/fee-model.md).
* Immutable-after-launch choices (supply, no-mint, liquidity lock/burn, and taxes-lower-only) can never be reversed — review them before signing with the [Launch Checklist](/creators/launch-checklist.md).

## 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/overview.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.
