Creating Your Own Presale
Launch your token project with confidence using our comprehensive presale creation guide. This section covers everything from initial preparation to managing your active presale and understanding the automatic liquidity provision process.
Prerequisites and Requirements
Before you can create a presale on the TokenPresale platform, you must meet several important requirements. Understanding and preparing these prerequisites is crucial for a successful presale launch.
Essential Requirements Checklist
XWT Fee Payment
You must have sufficient XWT tokens to pay the presale creation fee. This fee covers platform operations and ensures serious project commitment.
- Current fee: Check platform for latest rates
- Fee is non-refundable once presale is created
- Fee must be paid before presale activation
Token Preparation
Your project tokens must be properly prepared and available for deposit into the presale contract.
- Tokens must be deployed on Xian blockchain
- Sufficient token supply for presale allocation
- Token contract must be verified and functional
Project Documentation
Prepare comprehensive project information to build investor confidence and transparency.
- Project description and roadmap
- Team information and credentials
- Tokenomics and utility explanation
- Technical documentation (if applicable)
Wallet Setup
Ensure your wallet is properly configured and has the necessary permissions.
- Wallet connected to Xian network
- Sufficient XIAN for transaction fees
- Token approval permissions ready
Understanding XWT Fees
The XWT fee system ensures platform sustainability and filters out low-quality projects. Here's what you need to know:
Fee Structure
- Base Fee: Fixed amount required for all presales
- Variable Components: Varies based on the XIAN cost of each XWT token. The platform maintains balance by decreasing fees when XWT token value increases, and vice versa
- Payment Method: Must be paid in XWT tokens
Fee Usage
- Platform maintenance and development
- Security audits and monitoring
- Community support and resources
Token Deposit Requirements
Your tokens must be deposited into the presale contract before activation. Understanding these requirements prevents delays:
Token Amount
You must deposit the exact amount of tokens allocated for the presale. This includes:
- Presale allocation (tokens for sale)
- Liquidity provision tokens (for DEX listing)
- Any bonus or reward allocations
Token Standards
Ensure your tokens meet platform requirements:
- Compatible with Xian blockchain standards
- Proper decimal configuration
- Transfer functions working correctly
Approval Process
Before deposit, you must approve the presale contract:
- Approve exact token amount needed
- Verify approval transaction success
- Confirm allowance is sufficient
Presale Configuration Options
The presale configuration determines how your presale will operate. Each setting has important implications for your project's success and investor experience.
Core Configuration Settings
Basic Information
Project Name and Symbol
Choose a clear, memorable name and symbol for your project:
- Name: Token contract name (e.g., "con_demotoken")
- Symbol: Short identifier (e.g., "DEMO")
- Description: Brief project overview for investors
Token Economics
Define the economic parameters of your presale:
- Total Supply: Maximum tokens that will ever exist
- Presale Allocation: Tokens available for presale purchase
- Price per Token: Cost in XIAN for each token
- Minimum Purchase: Smallest investment amount allowed
- Maximum Purchase: Largest investment per participant
Timing Configuration
Start Time
When your presale begins accepting investments:
- Must be in the future
- Allow time for marketing and preparation
- Consider timezone implications
End Time
When your presale stops accepting investments:
- Must be after start time
- Typical duration: 1-4 weeks
- Can end early if hard cap reached
Vesting Schedule
How tokens are released to investors:

- Linear vesting over time
- Cliff + linear combination
Funding Goals
Soft Cap
Minimum funding required for project success:

Understanding Automatic Liquidity Provision
One of the key features of the TokenPresale platform is automatic liquidity provision upon successful presale completion. This ensures immediate trading availability for your token.
How Automatic Liquidity Works
Presale Completion
When your presale successfully reaches its soft cap, the automatic liquidity provision process begins immediately.
Fund Allocation
The configured percentage of raised funds is automatically allocated for liquidity provision to the decentralized exchange.
Token Pairing
Your project tokens are paired with XIAN at the configured listing price to create the initial liquidity pool.
Liquidity Locking
The resulting liquidity provider (LP) tokens are locked to ensure price stability.
Benefits of Automatic Liquidity Provision
Immediate Trading
Your token becomes tradeable immediately after presale completion, providing instant utility to investors.
- No waiting period for manual listing
- Seamless transition from presale to trading
- Immediate price discovery
Price Stability
Adequate liquidity helps maintain stable pricing and reduces volatility in early trading.
- Reduced price slippage
- Better trading experience
- Increased investor confidence
Investor Protection
Locked liquidity prevents rug pulls and ensures long-term token availability.
- Liquidity cannot be removed early
- Builds trust with investors
- Demonstrates project commitment
Automated Process
No manual intervention required, reducing complexity and potential errors.
- Eliminates human error
- Consistent execution
- Transparent and verifiable
Liquidity Calculation Examples
Understanding how liquidity is calculated helps you plan your presale configuration:
Example Scenario
- Hard Cap: 100,000 XIAN
- Presale Price: 0.10 XIAN per token
- Listing Price: 0.15 XIAN per token
- Liquidity Percentage: 70%
- Amount Raised: 80,000 XIAN
