Create Your Own Monad Token

Understanding the ERC-20 standard

On Monad, a token built to the ERC-20 standard is a smart contract that tracks the balances and transfers of your asset. Once deployed it works in every wallet, explorer and exchange that supports Monad; the deployment and all transfers are paid in MON, the network's gas asset.

Optional token features

• Mintable — the owner can create additional supply later. Leave it off for a fixed, capped supply.
• Burnable — holders can permanently destroy their own tokens to reduce the circulating supply.
• Pausable — the owner can freeze all transfers in an emergency and resume them later.
• Blacklist — the owner can block specific addresses from sending or receiving the token.
• Transfer & trade tax — charge a percentage fee on every transfer, and a separate rate on DEX buys/sells, routed to a tax wallet (up to 25%, owner-adjustable).

How to create a token on Monad

1. Connect your wallet and switch to the Monad network.
2. Enter the token name, symbol, decimals and total supply.
3. Choose any optional features: mintable, burnable, pausable, blacklist.
4. Confirm the transaction — your token is deployed and the full supply is sent to your wallet.

Why create a token on Monad?

Monad is one of the most widely supported networks, so a token built to the ERC-20 standard instantly works across wallets, block explorers, DEXs and CEXs. It's the fastest way to launch a community token, utility token, reward point or test asset without writing a contract.
