How to Create a V2 Burn Token
Creating a V2 Burn token on HODL.DANCE is simple and takes about a minute. You don't need any coding knowledge — fill out the form, choose how much BNB seeds the LP, optionally pick a vanity address, and deploy. Trading starts immediately on PancakeSwap V2. There is no bonding curve and no graduation.
Cost: launch fee 0 BNB (currently free) + Initial LP (BNB) (minimum 0.2 BNB) + gas
Before you start: Connect your wallet on BNB Chain and make sure you have enough BNB for the launch fee, LP seed, and gas. On /create, select the V2 Burn tab.
Compare paths: Bonding Curve · V2 Burn · V3 Direct (info icon next to the launch tabs).
What Is V2 Burn?
| Feature | Detail |
|---|---|
| DEX | PancakeSwap V2 from the first block |
| Supply split | 90% → V2 LP, 10% → you (creator) |
| LP fate | Permanently burned (0x…dEaD) — cannot be removed |
| Fee claim | None — swap fees stay in the pool |
| Ownership | Renounced after deploy (no admin mint/pause) |
| Curve / graduation | None |
| Vanity address | Optional (CREATE2, 1–4 hex) |
| Anti-snipe | Automatic for ~10 minutes after launch |
When to use: you want instant DEX trading, a hard “LP cannot be pulled” story, and you don’t need claimable creator fees from LP.
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Go to Create Page
Click "Create Token" in the navigation menu or go directly to /create. Open the V2 Burn tab (red / “New”).
Step 2: Fill in Token Information
Token Name (required)
- Enter token name (3–40 characters)
- Only letters, numbers, and spaces allowed (invisible / zero-width characters are stripped)
- Example:
HODL Dance,Moon Rocket
Token Symbol (required)
- Enter token symbol (1–10 characters)
- Automatically converted to UPPERCASE
- Only letters and numbers
- Example:
HODL,MOON
Description (optional but recommended)
- Describe your project (max 500 characters)
- Longer descriptions give higher Token Quality Score
- Example: "A community token for DeFi lovers. Join the dance!"
Logo (required)
- Click "Choose File"
- Select an image (PNG, JPG, or WEBP)
- Maximum file size: 5MB
- Recommended: 512×512px square image
- Preview appears immediately
Initial LP (BNB) (required)
- Entire amount goes into PancakeSwap V2 LP together with 90% of supply, then LP tokens are burned
- You receive 10% of total supply in your wallet
- On-chain minimum: 0.2 BNB
- UI recommended default: 1 BNB
- Quick buttons: 1 · 4 · 10 BNB (you can type any value ≥ 0.2)
| Item | Notes |
|---|---|
| Min LP | 0.2 BNB (reverts on-chain if lower) |
| Recommended | 1 BNB |
| Practical max | Your wallet balance (minus fee + gas) |
Why seed more LP?
- Higher starting market cap / better open price
- Stronger first impression on the chart
- Improves soft Token Quality Score for LP size
Social Links (optional)
Add up to 3 social media links:
- Website: https://yoursite.com
- X/Twitter: https://x.com/yourhandle
- Telegram: https://t.me/yourgroup
Each link gives +10 points in Token Quality Score!
Step 3: Vanity Address (optional)
V2 Burn supports a custom contract address suffix via CREATE2. Your token can end with a memorable hex ending (e.g. …dead, …cafe).
How it works:
- Optionally click a preset or type your own hex suffix
- Click Mine and wait until a matching salt is found
- Preview shows the future address ending with your suffix
- Deploy uses that salt so the on-chain address matches
Rules:
- 1–4 hex characters only:
0-9anda-f(case-insensitive) - Empty field = no vanity — deploy with a random salt immediately
- Longer suffixes take longer to mine (4 chars can take a while in the browser)
Presets (examples):
dead · beef · face · cafe · fade · feed · deed · d00d · 4444 · 8888 · 1337 · ffff · 0000
Custom: type any valid 1–4 hex string (e.g. brand-friendly hex).
You must mine a salt before deploy if a suffix is set. Clear the field if you want a random address.
Step 4: Anti-Snipe (automatic on V2 Burn)
You don’t configure this manually — at launch the token enables temporary transfer limits:
| Limit | Default (create form) |
|---|---|
| Max wallet | ~1% of total supply |
| Max tx | ~0.5% of total supply |
| Duration | ~1400 blocks on BNB Chain ≈ ~10 minutes (at ~0.43–0.45 s/block) |
Also:
- Creator is exempt (your 10% allocation and transfers work)
- Router, pair, factory, and related contracts are exempt so liquidity and trading function
- Limits auto-expire after the end block — no action required
- After ownership renounce, nobody can change or extend the limits
This reduces early sniper dumps swallowing huge supply in the first minutes after launch.
Step 5: Check the Preview
On the right side (or below on mobile), you’ll see a live preview of your token:
What you’ll see:
- Your logo, name, and symbol
- Social media icons
- Token Quality Score (0–100)
- V2 Burned status (full progress bar, red style)
- Distribution: 90% LP burned · 10% you
- Approx open price / market cap from your LP BNB
- Vanity address preview (if mined)
The preview updates in real-time as you type!
Step 6: Review Token Quality Score
Your token receives a quality score from 0–100 based on:
| Element | Points | How to get |
|---|---|---|
| Logo uploaded | 10 | Upload any logo |
| Description | 30 | Write >400 characters (20pts for >200, 10pts for shorter) |
| Website link | 10 | Add website URL |
| Twitter link | 10 | Add X/Twitter URL |
| Telegram link | 10 | Add Telegram URL |
| LP seed quality | up to 30 | Stronger LP → higher soft score (e.g. ≥1 BNB looks strong) |
Score labels:
- 90–100: Excellent
- 80–89: Great
- 60–79: Good
- 40–59: Fair
- 0–39: Needs Work
Step 7: Deploy Your Token
- Check that all information is correct
- Review total cost at the bottom:
- Launch fee (if any)
- + your Initial LP BNB
- If using vanity: confirm salt is mined and address looks right
- Click "Deploy Token"
- Confirm the transaction in your wallet (
value= launch fee + LP BNB)
Progress indicators:
- "Uploading metadata..." — Saving logo and data to IPFS
- "Confirm in wallet..." — Approving transaction in wallet
- "Deploying token..." — Waiting for blockchain confirmation
- "Finding your token..." — System is locating your new token
Don't close the page! The entire process takes roughly 10–40 seconds (longer if vanity mining finished just before deploy).
Step 8: Success!
When deployment completes, you can open your token page immediately: /token/[your-token-address]
What Happens After Deployment?
On-chain flow (V2 Burn)
- Platform launch fee (if any) → platform
- CREATE2 clone of the token (+ optional vanity salt)
- Initialize: full supply, trading on, anti-snipe, temporary owner = factory
- Create Pancake V2 pair
- 90% supply + full LP BNB →
addLiquidityETH - All LP tokens burned to the dead address
- 10% supply → creator wallet
- Ownership renounced
- Event indexed by HODL.DANCE backend
Token Distribution
| Pool | Amount | Percentage |
|---|---|---|
| V2 LP (burned) | 900,000,000 | 90% |
| Creator wallet | 100,000,000 | 10% |
| Total Supply | 1,000,000,000 | 100% |
Trading
- Buy/sell on PancakeSwap V2 (and on HODL.DANCE swap for V2 tokens)
- No fee claim for creators from LP
- Classic V2 AMM: fees stay in the pool and deepen liquidity
- After ~1400 blocks, anti-snipe limits end automatically
Cost Breakdown
| Item | Amount | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Launch fee | 0 BNB (current promo) | Platform fee on factory (currently free) |
| Initial LP | ≥ 0.2 BNB | Fully into burned V2 LP |
| Gas | variable | Shown in your wallet |
Examples (launch fee = 0):
- Min LP only: 0.2 BNB + gas
- Recommended 1 BNB LP: 1 BNB + gas
- 4 BNB LP: 4 BNB + gas
Note: Gas fee is not visible in the form preview — you'll see it in the transaction in your wallet.
Common Errors & Solutions
| Error / symptom | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| "Name must be at least 3 characters" | Name too short | Use minimum 3 characters |
| "Symbol must be 1–10 characters" | Symbol wrong length | Use 1–10 characters |
| "Logo is required" | No logo uploaded | Upload PNG/JPG/WEBP |
| "Logo file is too large" | File >5MB | Compress image to <5MB |
| "Minimum LP is 0.2 BNB" / "lp bnb low" | LP below floor | Set LP ≥ 0.2 BNB |
| "Mine vanity salt first" | Suffix set, not mined | Mine salt or clear vanity |
| "vanity miss" | Salt/suffix mismatch | Re-mine the suffix |
| "insufficient value" | msg.value < fee + LP |
Add BNB for fee + LP |
| "Please connect your wallet" | Wallet not connected | Connect MetaMask / Trust / etc. |
| "Insufficient funds" | Not enough BNB | Top up BNB |
Tips for a Great V2 Burn Token
Logo
- Use high-quality image (≥500×500px)
- Square format works best
- Clear, recognizable design
Description
- Write at least 400 characters for maximum description points
- Explain what your token is about and your vision
Social Links
- Add all three (Website, Twitter, Telegram) when possible
- Make sure links work before deployment
Initial LP
- ≥ 1 BNB looks more serious for open market cap
- Min 0.2 BNB is allowed but a thin pool is easier to move
- Remember: all LP BNB is burned with the LP — you keep 10% tokens, not the BNB
Vanity
- Use presets for speed (
dead,cafe,1337…) - Custom 1–3 hex is usually fast; 4 hex can take longer
- Great for branding and shareable addresses
Anti-snipe
- Plan marketing around the first ~10 minutes
- Community can still buy — just not giant % of supply per wallet/tx
- You are exempt as creator

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to create a V2 Burn token?
Launch fee (may be 0) + Initial LP (≥ 0.2 BNB, recommended 1+) + gas. Example with 0 fee and 1 BNB LP: about 1 BNB + gas.
Is there a bonding curve?
No. Trading starts on PancakeSwap V2 immediately.
Can I claim trading fees as creator?
No. Fees stay in the burned LP pool. If you want claimable fees, use V3 Direct instead.
Can someone remove liquidity?
No. LP is burned to the dead address.
Why anti-snipe if LP is already burned?
Limits max wallet / max tx for ~10 minutes so bots can’t vacuum huge % of circulating (creator + pool) supply in the first blocks. Creator is exempt.
Can I change anti-snipe after launch?
No (ownership renounced). Duration is set at create time (~1400 blocks by default).
What is a vanity address?
A token contract address that ends with a chosen hex suffix (1–4 characters), mined client-side with CREATE2 before deploy.
Vanity only on V2?
On V2 Burn and V3 Direct — not on the classic Bonding Curve create form.
How much supply do I get?
Always 10% at launch (fixed). The other 90% is in burned LP.
Can I change name / symbol / logo after deployment?
Name, symbol, supply, and logo are fixed on-chain. Description / socials may be updatable only under the platform’s verification rules (same idea as other launch paths). See the Token Verification guide on the docs site.
Can I create multiple tokens?
Yes. Each launch pays its own fee + LP + gas.
How long does deployment take?
Usually 10–40 seconds after wallet confirmation. Don’t close the page.
What if deployment fails?
Check: BNB balance (fee + LP + gas), wallet connection, BSCScan tx status. If the tx failed, value is not kept by the factory.
V2 Burn vs V3 Direct?
| V2 Burn | V3 Direct | |
|---|---|---|
| DEX | Pancake V2 | Pancake V3 |
| Supply | 90% LP / 10% you | 100% locked V3 LP |
| LP | Burned | Locked (NFT) |
| Creator fees | None | 50/50 claimable |
| Seed | Initial LP BNB required | Optional initial buy |
