# Basic Token Creation

To create a token in PooChain Ecosystem (poo.fun + LaunchLab), follow these steps:

1. Access launchpad: Visit poo.fun, navigate to the Create a Token Now button and click.
2. Enter Token Details:
   * Provide the Name and Ticker for your token.
   * Optionally, include a brief Description to provide context for your token.
3. Upload Media:
   * Add a square image or GIF (minimum resolution: 128x128 pixels; maximum file size: 5MB).
   * Optionally, select "Socials & More" to include links to social media profiles or a website for enhanced visibility.
4. Authorize and Create:
   * Click "Sign-in to Create Token" to sign a message with your wallet, verifying it as the token’s creator.
   * Click "Create Token" to proceed.
5. Optional Initial Buy:
   * Upon clicking "Create Token", a pop-up will prompt you to perform an initial purchase of your token. This step is optional but recommended to deter snipers and secure the first buy.
   * Click "Confirm" to complete the process.
6. Token Launch: Once confirmed, your token will be live and tradeable on PooChain's bonding curve and the token will be tradeable on poo.fun and LaunchLab.
7. Graduation to CPMM Pool: Your token will automatically transition to a Raydium Constant Product Market Maker (CPMM) pool once the bonding curve reaches 85 SOL.

Pro Tip: After launching, use the "Share" button on your token’s page to generate a referral link. You can earn referral fees from trading activity initiated through your link.
