What are the differences in the cost and process of issuing tokens on BSC, Base, and X Layer? CiaoTool Multi-Chain Token Issuance Guide

CN
1 hour ago

Creating a token, whether to choose BSC, Base, or X Layer, mainly depends on your target users, trading scenarios, subsequent liquidity plans, and which native Gas asset you are willing to use. With CiaoTool, tokens can be created on all three chains without coding; the basic processes are similar, but the Gas token types, ecosystems, DEX liquidity paths, available tools, and actual cost structures are different.

In simple terms:

  • BSC / BNB Chain: Suitable for projects targeting BNB Chain users, PancakeSwap liquidity, meme launches, RWA / bStocks, batch trades, and multi-address operations.

  • Base: Suitable for ERC-20 projects targeting the Coinbase ecosystem, Base users, and the Ethereum L2 trading environment.

  • X Layer: Suitable for projects targeting the OKX and X Layer ecosystems, using OKB to pay for Gas, and wanting to launch tokens and on-chain activities at low cost.

What does the token issuance cost consist of across the three chains?

Whether you create a token on BSC, Base, or X Layer, the final cost is usually not just "the price of creating the token," but consists of the following parts:

  • CiaoTool service fee: Service fees vary between different token creators, functionalities, and chains.

  • Network Gas: Charged by the blockchain network, varying according to network status and transaction complexity.

  • Liquidity funds: If planning to create a liquidity pool on a DEX, you need to prepare tokens and paired assets, such as BNB, ETH, USDC, or OKB.

  • Optional feature fees: Such as trading tax, LP locking, batch transfers, multi-address trading, creating and bundling purchases, V2/V3 liquidity management, etc.

  • Subsequent operational costs: Including airdrops, community rewards, trading activities, liquidity maintenance, wallet management, and other project operational expenses.

One item that is often overlooked is liquidity funds. The service fee and Gas for creating a regular token might be low, but without reasonable trading pairs, liquidity depth, and asset management plans, the token might face high slippage, ineffective trading, or insufficient liquidity after going live.

BSC: Suitable for Meme, PancakeSwap, and multi-wallet operations

BSC, also known as BNB Chain, is currently one of the more mature ecosystems for meme coins, PancakeSwap liquidity, and multi-address on-chain tools.

With CiaoTool, users can create BEP-20 tokens without coding and later use the PancakeSwap V2 / V3 tools for building, adding, withdrawing liquidity, batch trading, multi-address buying and selling, airdrops, asset aggregation, and wallet management. CiaoTool’s BSC side also covers scenarios related to Four.Meme, Flap, and RWA / bStocks.

BSC token issuance costs

The costs on BSC are usually paid in BNB and include:

  • CiaoTool's token creation service fee.

  • BNB Chain network Gas.

  • If creating a PancakeSwap trading pair, tokens and BNB, USDT, or other paired assets will need to be invested.

  • Using trading taxes, LP management, batch trading, or multi-address tools may incur corresponding service fees and Gas.

  • If launching through Four.Meme or Flap, there may also be platform-specific creation, trading, curve, or launch-related costs.

For example, CiaoTool's BSC PancakeSwap V2 liquidity pool creation tool page shows that the base service fee for creating a V2 liquidity pool is 0.024 BNB, and the BSC network Gas also needs to be paid; the actual page will display costs before wallet confirmation.

The creation costs for different token types may also vary. Tokens with LP burn, trading taxes, anti-bot measures, dividends, or other complex logic typically require higher service fees and more Gas than ordinary BEP-20 tokens.

BSC token issuance process

Using CiaoTool to create and launch a regular token on BSC can typically be completed in the following steps:

  1. Connect MetaMask, Binance Wallet, OKX Wallet, or another wallet compatible with BNB Chain.

  2. Switch to BNB Chain Mainnet.

  3. Choose ordinary BEP-20 token or the desired token feature type.

  4. Fill in the token name, symbol, total supply, decimal points, and other optional parameters.

  5. Confirm the creation service fee and estimated Gas.

  6. Confirm the creation transaction in your wallet.

  7. Save the deployed token contract address.

  8. If trading needs to be opened, create a liquidity pool on PancakeSwap V2 or V3.

  9. Use batch transfers, airdrops, multi-address trading, asset aggregation, or market cap management tools as needed for the project.

If the project follows a Launchpad route such as Four.Meme or Flap, corresponding creation and trading processes can also be utilized. CiaoTool also supports the creation and bundling purchase and multi-address trading scenarios for FourMeme and Flap.

What projects are suitable for BSC?

BSC is more suitable for:

  • BNB Chain meme coins and community tokens.

  • BEP-20 projects wanting to create pools on PancakeSwap V2 / V3.

  • Projects launching through Four.Meme or Flap.

  • RWA meme, stock meme, bStocks, or RWA payment asset related projects.

  • Projects that require multi-address bundled purchases, bundled sales, or batch swaps.

  • Projects that need airdrops, batch distributions, wallet aggregation, and liquidity management.

  • Projects looking to use BNB, stablecoins, or other assets supported by the platform as trading pairs.

Base: Suitable for ERC-20, Ethereum L2, and Coinbase ecosystem

Base is an Ethereum L2 network suitable for projects that want to deploy ERC-20 tokens, reach Base chain users, or enter Coinbase-related ecosystems.

CiaoTool supports the code-free creation of ERC-20 tokens on Base. Users only need to fill in basic information such as name, symbol, and supply to automatically generate and deploy the token contract.

Base token issuance costs

Costs on Base are generally paid in ETH and include:

  • CiaoTool's Base token creation service fee.

  • Base network Gas.

  • Tokens and paired assets required when creating liquidity on Base DEX.

  • Optional operation costs such as airdrops, batch transfers, asset aggregation, multi-address trading, and liquidity management.

Base's Gas is typically lower than that of the Ethereum mainnet, but Gas is not fixed. Transaction peaks, bridging operations, complex contract calls, and batch trades can affect the final costs.

If the project plans to create a liquidity pool, additional preparation of ETH, USDC, or other supported paired assets should also be made. The cost of token creation is usually just a small part of the initial costs; liquidity budgets and subsequent community operation budgets are more worth planning in advance.

Base token issuance process

The basic process for creating Base ERC-20 tokens on CiaoTool is typically as follows:

  1. Connect a wallet compatible with Base.

  2. Switch to Base Mainnet.

  3. Select the ERC-20 Token Creator.

  4. Fill in the token name, symbol, total supply, and other optional settings.

  5. Review service fees and Base network Gas.

  6. Confirm the deployment transaction in your wallet.

  7. Save the token contract address.

  8. According to the project plan, create a liquidity pool on a DEX that supports Base.

  9. Use airdrops, batch transfers, asset aggregation, or other Base tools for subsequent operations.

CiaoTool's Base toolkit also supports multi-address asset aggregation, suitable for aggregating scattered tokens from multiple sub-wallets into a designated main wallet for unified management.

What projects are suitable for Base?

Base is more suitable for:

  • Projects that want to issue standard ERC-20 tokens.

  • Community projects targeting Base, Coinbase, or Ethereum L2 users.

  • Projects looking to pair with common Ethereum ecosystem assets like ETH and USDC.

  • Teams planning to develop around EVM, Base DEX, and Ethereum L2 infrastructure.

  • Projects that need to be closer to Ethereum's ecosystem while wanting to reduce mainnet Gas costs.

X Layer: Suitable for OKX ecosystem and OKB Gas scenarios

X Layer is an EVM-compatible network related to the OKX ecosystem. Through CiaoTool, users can create X Layer tokens without coding and utilize wallet management, batch transfers, asset migration, and batch swap tools.

CiaoTool's X Layer Token Creator allows users to fill in the token name, symbol, and supply before deploying the token. The creation cost consists of a fixed base service fee and X Layer network Gas.

X Layer token issuance costs

Costs on X Layer are mainly paid in OKB and include:

  • CiaoTool's base token creation service fee.

  • X Layer network Gas.

  • Tokens and paired assets required for creating pools or adding liquidity.

  • Fees for tools such as airdrops, batch transfers, asset migration, and batch swaps.

CiaoTool's X Layer tool page indicates that the base service fee for its multi-address transfer and asset management tools can be as low as 0.0004 OKB per address, plus on-chain Gas; the fees for different tools and token creation features should refer to the actual page.

X Layer token issuance process

The basic process for creating an X Layer token on CiaoTool generally includes:

  1. Connect a wallet that supports X Layer.

  2. Switch to X Layer Mainnet.

  3. Select Token Creator.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which chain has the lowest token issuance costs?

Total costs depend on the selected token type, CiaoTool service fees, real-time Gas, whether pools are created, liquidity scale, paired assets, number of wallets, and subsequent features.

If only considering ordinary token creation, it’s usually about comparing the real-time service fees and network Gas on the pages; including liquidity, the input of paired assets usually becomes a more significant part of the costs.

Can BSC, Base, and X Layer all issue tokens without code?

Yes. CiaoTool provides no-code token creation tools on BSC, Base, and X Layer. BSC is mainly for BEP-20 token creation, Base is mainly for ERC-20 creation, and X Layer provides processes for creating EVM-compatible tokens.

Is it necessary to create a liquidity pool after creating a token?

If you want the token to be publicly traded on a DEX, you usually need to have trading pairs and the corresponding liquidity. However, the specifics depend on the launch model chosen by the project.

For example, a regular token can have its pools created by the project team on a DEX; Launchpads like Four.Meme and Flap may use mechanisms like Bonding Curves, handling subsequent DEX liquidity migration after certain conditions are met.

Which chain is more suitable for meme coins?

It depends on the target users and project roadmap. BSC is more suitable for meme projects wanting to utilize PancakeSwap, Four.Meme, Flap, RWA / bStocks, and multi-address operation tools.
