### [**Common’s Ideacoin Launchpad: User Documentation**](https://common.xyz/createTokenCommunity)

#### **Overview**

The **Common Ideacoin Launchpad** lets anyone launch an **ERC-20 token** for their community directly on the **Base** blockchain. With a few clicks, creators can mint onchain assets, bootstrap community participation, and coordinate collective action through built-in web3-native tools.

> Additional Chain support coming soon

#### **Launchpad Fees**

| **Fee Type**                 | **Details**                                                      |
| ---------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Launch Fee**               | 0.0004444 ETH (\~$1) — prevents spam and Sybil launches          |
| **Uniswap Launch Phase Fee** | 0.4% of tokens from the Uniswap liquidity pool                   |
|                              | Plus, 0.8% of raised ETH liquidity (e.g. $200 from a $25k pool)  |
| **Ongoing Trading Fee**      | 1% protocol fee on all token buys/sells                          |
| **Future Revenue Features**  | Optional fees on secondary trades and liquidity events (roadmap) |

> 📌 For reference, Zora’s fee model is 0.50%/0.50%. Common keeps it lightweight at just 1%. With each trade’s being shared with the coin creator.

***

#### **Example Use Cases**

1. **Start a New Community**
   * Launch a token to attract early supporters and coordinate ideas.
2. **Reward & Engage**
   * Add a token to an existing community to unlock special privileges or content.
3. **Experiment Freely**
   * Use the Launchpad to prototype fun or speculative token ideas with minimal setup or cost.

***

#### **Why Common’s Launchpad Stands Out**

Common fuses **onchain coordination** with **token infrastructure**. Token holders can immediately organize, govern, and grow together — all within the same platform.

> Community-first token creation. Onchain native from day one.
