The Solution
Spawned provides an AI-powered platform that makes building fast, simple, and accessible to everyone.
Why Tokenize an Advertising Creator Platform?
Move from a transactional middleman to an ownership ecosystem.
Traditional advertising platforms like YouTube or influencer networks keep creators and advertisers in separate silos, with the platform taking a large cut. A tokenized model aligns incentives: creators earn from content and token appreciation, advertisers get better access and rates, and holders benefit from platform growth. For example, a token could be required to access premium ad inventory, vote on new platform features, or receive a share of the 0.30% transaction fee revenue. Launching on Solana is the clear recommendation due to transaction costs under $0.01, essential for micro-payments to creators.
Token Model vs. Traditional Platform Fees
Compare the economics of building with a token versus using a standard SaaS or commission model.
Traditional Model (e.g., Managed Service):
- High upfront development cost: $50k-$200k.
- Platform takes 20-30% of ad spend as a fee.
- Creators paid monthly; advertisers pay invoices.
- No ownership or upside for community members.
Spawned Token Model:
- Launch cost: 0.1 SOL (~$20) + token liquidity.
- Platform fee: 0.30% per trade funds operations.
- Holder rewards: 0.30% fee distributed to token holders.
- Creators & advertisers can become early token holders, sharing in platform success.
- Post-graduation to Token-2022, the platform earns 1% in perpetual fees for ongoing development.
How to Launch Your Advertising Platform Token in 5 Steps
A tactical roadmap from concept to a functioning token economy.
Follow this process to go from idea to a live token powering your creator economy.
- Define Token Utility: Decide how the token will be used. Examples: payment for ad credits, staking for premium analytics, governance for feature votes, or rewards for creator referrals.
- Design Tokenomics: Plan your supply, distribution, and fees. Allocate tokens for the development treasury, creator/advisor rewards, and a liquidity pool. Remember the 0.30% creator revenue and 0.30% holder reward fees on Spawned.
- Create on Spawned: Connect your wallet, set your token's name and symbol, and define your fees. Use the integrated AI website builder to create a landing page explaining your platform's vision—this saves $29-99/month on separate web hosting.
- Build Initial Community: Share your token page with potential creators and advertisers. Airdrop small amounts to early supporters or run a Learn about airdrops to bootstrap engagement.
- Activate Utility: Once live, start implementing your planned utility. Create a simple dashboard where users can connect wallets to stake tokens for benefits or spend them on platform services.
4 Concrete Use Cases for Your Platform Token
These specific examples show how a token adds tangible value beyond speculation.
- Premium Ad Placement: Advertisers stake or hold a certain amount of tokens to access top-tier creator partnerships or guaranteed placement in content.
- Creator Staking Rewards: Creators lock tokens to earn a higher percentage of ad revenue from their content, incentivizing long-term platform commitment.
- Governance & Feature Voting: Token holders vote on key decisions, like which new ad formats to develop or how to allocate the community marketing budget.
- Micro-Tipping & Bonuses: Viewers can instantly tip creators with tiny fractions of the token (feasible on Solana) for sponsored segments they enjoy, providing direct feedback to advertisers.
Building a Sustainable Revenue Model
The 0.30% fee on all token trades provides a continuous, aligned revenue stream. Unlike a traditional platform that charges advertisers upfront, this model only generates fees when value is exchanged, keeping barriers low for new advertisers. As trading volume grows from platform activity, this fee funds operations. Furthermore, the separate 0.30% holder reward makes the token intrinsically attractive to hold, supporting its price. Once your platform matures and you graduate the token from the launchpad to the Solana Token-2022 standard, your platform wallet will earn 1% of every transaction in perpetuity, creating a long-term treasury for upgrades and expansions. Compare this to the one-time, high-cost launch of a traditional gaming token.
