Getting started
Chains and launchpads
After this, you'll know which chains and launchpads Ballistic launches on today, and in which modes.
Ballistic launches on Solana and on Robinhood Chain. Each launchpad offers one or both launch modes: Block-0 (the token is created and every buy lands in the launch block, then the supply is washed) and Reserve (one buy in the launch block, with the supply parked in a position only you release).
| Chain | Launchpad | Modes | You pay in |
|---|---|---|---|
| Solana | pump.fun | Block-0, Reserve | SOL |
| Solana | StonkFun, for tokens paired with tokenised stocks | Reserve, Bundle | SOL |
| Robinhood Chain | Pons | Block-0, Reserve | ETH |
On Robinhood Chain, see Reserve mode for the full launch flow.
Each chain has an overview of what works there: Solana, BSC and Robinhood Chain.
BSC
On BSC (BNB Smart Chain), wallets, trading, liquidity and withdrawals work today. Launching new BSC tokens is not open to everyone yet. When it is, this page will list the BSC launchpads.
What can go wrong
| Symptom | Likely cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| You want to launch a new token on BSC | Launching on BSC is not open to everyone yet | Launch on Solana or Robinhood Chain for now. Trading, liquidity and withdrawals on BSC already work. |
| A launchpad you used before isn't in the picker | Bags was removed from Ballistic | Launch on pump.fun or StonkFun instead. |
