Spawned Metamask Tutorial: Connect for Multi-Chain Token Launches
This guide shows developers how to connect and use Metamask with the Spawned launchpad for managing cross-chain token projects. While Spawned is built on Solana, integrating Metamask allows you to bridge assets and manage projects across networks. You can use Spawned's AI website builder and launch features while connecting your Ethereum-based wallet for flexibility.

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.
Should You Connect Metamask to Spawned?
A clear recommendation for multi-chain developers.
For developers managing tokens across multiple blockchains, connecting Metamask to Spawned provides practical benefits. If your assets are primarily on Ethereum or Base networks, this integration lets you bridge funds to Solana to use Spawned's launchpad without moving your entire wallet ecosystem. The verdict: Connect Metamask if you want to maintain Ethereum-based assets while accessing Spawned's Solana launch features, AI website builder, and unique 0.30% ongoing holder rewards. This approach works well for gaming tokens or projects targeting audiences on multiple chains, as shown in our guides for creating gaming tokens on Solana and Ethereum.
Metamask vs. Native Solana Wallets on Spawned
Understanding how Metamask differs from native Solana wallets helps you choose the right setup. Metamask requires a bridge or cross-chain swap to move assets to Solana, adding a step but maintaining your existing Ethereum workflow. Native Solana wallets like Phantom connect directly but may require you to purchase SOL separately. With Spawned's 0.1 SOL launch fee (~$20), using Metamask means bridging approximately $20 worth of ETH or other assets. The key difference: Metamask integration lets you use Spawned's features without abandoning your Ethereum developer tools, while still benefiting from Solana's low fees and Spawned's 0.30% creator revenue per trade.
Step-by-Step: Connect Metamask to Spawned
A practical guide to establishing the connection.
Follow these specific steps to connect your Metamask wallet to the Spawned platform. This process involves installing necessary extensions, bridging assets, and connecting to Spawned's interface.
Managing Multi-Chain Token Projects
Once connected, you can manage tokens across networks using Spawned as your primary launch platform. For example, you might launch a gaming token on Solana via Spawned while maintaining related assets on Ethereum. Spawned's AI website builder creates a unified project site, and the 0.30% ongoing holder reward provides incentives regardless of the investor's wallet type. This approach mirrors strategies in our guide to launching gaming tokens on Solana, but with funding from your Ethereum ecosystem. The 1% perpetual fee after graduation via Token-2022 applies to all holders, whether they use Metamask or Solana wallets.
Cost Analysis: Metamask Integration vs. Alternatives
Connecting Metamask involves specific costs that differ from using native Solana wallets. Here's a breakdown of what to expect financially.
- Bridge Fees: Typically 0.1-0.3% of bridged amount, plus gas on the origin chain (Ethereum/Base).
- Spawned Launch Fee: Fixed 0.1 SOL (~$20), paid from bridged assets.
- Compared to Native: No bridge fees, but may require purchasing SOL directly (potentially involving exchange fees).
- Savings: Spawned's included AI website builder saves $29-99/month versus separate services.
- Ongoing: 0.30% creator fee per trade, 0.30% holder rewards, 1% post-graduation fee—same for all wallets.
Real Use Cases for Metamask-Spawned Integration
When this connection makes the most practical sense.
Developers typically use this integration in specific scenarios where multi-chain flexibility provides tangible benefits.
- Ethereum developers expanding to Solana without changing primary wallet.
- Projects with existing ETH/Base community launching a Solana token version.
- Teams holding development funds in stablecoins on Ethereum wanting to access Solana's lower fees.
- Gaming projects targeting users across multiple blockchain ecosystems.
- Creators who want Spawned's holder rewards but prefer Metamask's interface for daily use.

Frequently Asked Questions
No, you cannot launch directly with only Metamask. Spawned is built on Solana, so you need a Solana wallet (like Phantom) to interact with the platform. However, you can use Metamask to bridge assets to Solana, fund your Solana wallet, and then connect that Solana wallet to Spawned. This lets you maintain assets in Metamask while using Spawned's launch features.
Bridge fees vary by service but typically range from 0.1% to 0.3% of the transferred amount, plus Ethereum gas fees at the time of transfer. For Spawned's 0.1 SOL launch fee (~$20), you might pay an additional $0.50-$1.50 in bridge fees plus $5-$15 in Ethereum gas, depending on network congestion. Compare this to purchasing SOL directly on an exchange, which may involve different fee structures.
No, the holder reward mechanism operates independently of wallet type. All token holders receive 0.30% of trades as rewards, whether they store tokens in Metamask (via wrapped versions), Solana wallets, or other supported wallets. The rewards are distributed by the smart contract based on token balance, not wallet software.
Yes, the AI website builder is available regardless of how you fund your launch. Once your Solana wallet is connected to Spawned (funded via bridged assets from Metamask or directly), you have full access to the website builder. This saves $29-99 per month compared to standalone website services, and the site supports multi-chain project information.
After graduation to Token-2022, the 1% perpetual fee applies to all trades. This fee mechanism is built into the token itself on Solana, so it functions whether holders use Metamask (via bridges), Solana wallets, or other interfaces. The fee is collected at the blockchain level and distributed according to the token's parameters, independent of wallet connections.
Native Solana wallets offer direct integration without bridging steps, potentially saving time and bridge fees. They also provide better support for Solana-specific features and dApps. However, if your funds or workflow are centered on Ethereum, connecting Metamask via bridging may be more convenient despite the extra step and costs. Consider your asset locations and development habits when choosing.
Spawned primarily manages the Solana token launch and website. While you can create a website that references multiple chain deployments, the launchpad features, holder rewards, and fee structures apply specifically to the Solana token launched through Spawned. You would manage Ethereum token aspects through separate tools, though the unified website helps present a cohesive project.
Failed bridge transactions typically refund assets to the source chain (Ethereum/Base) minus gas fees. You would need to retry the bridge transaction. Ensure you have sufficient ETH for gas and follow bridge instructions carefully. Spawned's launch process only begins after assets are successfully bridged to Solana and visible in your connected Solana wallet.
