Launch a token

What a launch costs, what the creator picks, and what they earn. A three-minute read.

Anyone can launch a token at eyesfomo.com/launch. Every launch gets the same rule as EYES: until it graduates, it can only be bought through Fomo. Every trade on it burns EYES.

Property Value
Supply 1,000,000,000 (6 decimals), mint and freeze authority none
Quote token USDC
Starts at $10,000 fully diluted value
Graduates at about $100,000, after $24,025.31 of net buys
Address ends in eyes (see below)

A launch is a few wallet approvals and a little over $105 in total, most of which you keep as your own tokens.

  1. The launch transaction creates the token and its curve, and buys you exactly 1% of supply at the starting price. That buy costs about $101 to $102 depending on your fee tier, plus about 0.013 SOL of network costs.
  2. Three opening trades of $1 each, sent from your own wallet as separate transactions right after. They buy into the engine’s vault, so those tokens are out of circulation for good.

The 1% is enforced on chain. A launch without it is refused, and nobody (the creator included) can buy a second 1% in the launch transaction. After launch, the creator buys through Fomo like everyone else.

You choose your own share of every trade on your token’s curve. The engine’s share is 0.25% of volume on every tier, and Meteora keeps its fixed 20% of the total fee.

Your share of volume Total fee per trade Engine (burns EYES) Meteora Your 1% costs
0% 0.3125% 0.25% 0.0625% $101.22
0.25% 0.625% 0.25% 0.125% $101.54
about 0.5% 0.947% 0.25% 0.189% $101.87
0.75% 1.25% 0.25% 0.25% $102.19

The tier can’t be changed after launch. It’s a separate Meteora config per tier, fixed at creation.

Your share of the curve fees builds up in the pool until you collect it. Open the “You” tab on the launch page with the creator wallet and press Collect, any time. It’s Meteora’s own creator-fee instruction, paid to your wallet.

After graduation, your share continues as locked liquidity: see graduation.

Since 2026-09-28, launches get a mint address ending in eyes, so you can recognise a launch from here at a glance. The addresses are ground ahead of time and handed out one per launch. If none is available, the launch uses a normal random address and works exactly the same.

The ending is a convenience, not a security check: anyone can grind an address that ends in eyes. What makes a launch real is its hook and its registration, see verify it yourself.

Anyone can launch, and nobody reviews what gets launched. The launchpad enforces the Fomo rule and sends the fees to the burn. It doesn’t vet, endorse or list-check any token, and the tokens are made by their creators, not by us.
