The Problem
Traditional solutions are complex, time-consuming, and often require technical expertise.
The Solution
Spawned provides an AI-powered platform that makes building fast, simple, and accessible to everyone.
The Real Cost of Low Token Awareness
Silence is the biggest killer of new tokens.
Most tokens fail not from a bad idea, but from launching into a void. Low awareness leads directly to low liquidity, zero trading volume, and a dead chart. On platforms with no built-in creator incentives, there's little reason for anyone besides the creator to promote the token. This creates a silent launch and a rapid fade. The solution isn't just shouting louder; it's structuring your launch with built-in promotional engines and clear value for early supporters.
Why Spawned is Built to Fight Low Awareness
For creators serious about preventing a silent launch, Spawned provides the economic and tool-based framework others lack. Unlike platforms that offer zero ongoing support, Spawned embeds awareness-building into the token's economics.
Key Differentiators:
- Creator Revenue (0.30% per trade): This isn't just a fee; it's a war chest. From day one, every trade generates resources you can reinvest into marketing, community rewards, or development.
- Holder Rewards (0.30% ongoing): This is a unique awareness engine. Holders are automatically rewarded, creating a powerful reason to buy and hold, which reduces sell pressure and turns holders into promoters.
- Included AI Website Builder: Legitimacy is key for awareness. A professional website (saving you $29-99/month) acts as your project's home, building trust and providing a place to direct all marketing efforts.
- Post-Graduation Model (1% fee): Ensures the project has sustainable funding for long-term awareness campaigns after leaving the launchpad.
- 0.30% creator fee funds immediate marketing efforts.
- 0.30% holder rewards incentivize holding and word-of-mouth promotion.
- Free AI website establishes critical pre-launch credibility.
Pre-Launch Awareness Checklist (7 Days Before)
Your launch day success is determined by the work you do the week before.
Awareness starts before the token exists. Follow these steps to ensure you launch to an audience.
- Build Your Hub: Use Spawned's AI website builder to create your project site. Include the token concept, roadmap, and social links. This is your credibility anchor.
- Secure Social Channels: Create Twitter/X, Telegram, and Discord accounts. Use consistent branding and post your website link.
- Draft Content: Prepare 5-10 tweets/threads explaining your token's purpose, the problem it solves, and the benefits of the Spawned holder reward model.
- Engage Early: Join relevant crypto and niche communities. Don't spam; provide value and mention your upcoming project where appropriate.
- Clarify the Value: Be ready to explain exactly how the 0.30% holder reward works and why it benefits early supporters.
4 Tactics to Sustain Awareness After Launch
The launch is just the beginning. Use these tactics to maintain and grow visibility.
- Reinvest Creator Fees: Allocate a portion of the 0.30% creator revenue from early trades to fund a small airdrop for engaged community members or a targeted ad campaign. Learn about airdrops.
- Highlight Holder Rewards: Regularly remind your community about the 0.30% automatic holder rewards. This is a unique selling point that encourages holding over quick flipping.
- Leverage Your Website: Use your AI-built site to post weekly updates, milestone recaps, and future plans. This becomes a trusted source for both current holders and potential new buyers.
- Community-Led Initiatives: Encourage and reward community members who create memes, threads, or videos about your token. Share the best content from your official channels.

Frequently Asked Questions
The biggest mistake is launching a token with zero pre-existing community or marketing plan. If no one knows about your token before it goes live, you are relying purely on chance for discovery. Building a basic social presence and a project website in the days before launch is non-negotiable.
It aligns incentives. When holders are rewarded automatically just for holding, they are less likely to sell quickly and more likely to talk positively about the token to others. This word-of-mouth promotion is a powerful, organic awareness tool that most tokens completely lack.
Yes. A website acts as your project's home base and primary source of legitimacy. When you direct people from Twitter or Telegram to a professional site with clear information, it builds trust. Without it, your project looks temporary and less serious, which severely limits your ability to attract attention.
Yes, the 0.30% fee generated from every trade goes directly to the creator wallet. This gives you immediate capital that you can use strategically to boost awareness. Common uses include funding small airdrops for engagement, paying for graphic design or content creation, or running targeted social media ads.
It's challenging but possible. Your first step should be to create a central hub (like the website you can build on Spawned) if you don't have one. Then, clearly communicate a new plan to your existing holders. Consider using any accrued creator fees to fund a community reward event or a strategic partnership to inject new interest. The key is consistent, transparent communication.
While the launch process is similar, Spawned's economic model is specifically advantageous for projects needing sustained awareness. Gaming tokens require an active community. The 0.30% holder reward encourages long-term holding within the game's economy, and the creator fee provides funds for tournaments or rewards.
