Creator Coins

Creator Coins let fans invest in their favorite creators. When a creator succeeds, their coin value can increase.

How It Works

Creator Coins are powered by the Zora protocol on Base. Each creator can launch their own coin that fans can buy and sell.

For Creators

  1. Go to your ProfileCoin tab

  2. Launch your coin (one-time setup)

  3. Set a symbol (e.g., $YOURNAME)

  4. Your coin is now tradeable

For Fans

  1. Visit a creator's profile → Coin tab

  2. Click Buy to purchase coins

  3. Pay with ETH

  4. Hold for potential value increase

  5. Sell anytime

Pricing Mechanism

Creator Coins use a bonding curve:

  • Price increases as more coins are bought

  • Price decreases as coins are sold

  • Early supporters can benefit from price appreciation
