How to Launch?

Launching a meme on Memes.surf takes just a few steps. No coding required.

Prerequisites

  • A TON wallet (e.g., Tonkeeper, TON Space, or any TON-compatible wallet)
  • A small amount of TON for the launch fee (~0.5 GRAM)

Step-by-Step Guide

Step 1: Connect Your Wallet

Open Memes.surf and connect your TON wallet. The platform uses TON Connect for secure, non-custodial authentication.

Step 2: Create Your Meme

Choose how you want to create your meme image:

  • AI Generation - Use @GrokAI or @Mira to generate a meme from a text prompt. Describe your idea and let the AI produce an image.
  • Manual Upload - Upload an image directly from your device. Supported formats include PNG, JPG, GIF, and WEBP.

Step 3: Name Your Meme

Give your meme a name and optionally add a description. The name will be associated with the NFT and share-tokens on-chain.

Step 4: Pay the Launch Fee

A one-time creation fee of approximately 0.5 GRAM is required to launch your meme. This covers the on-chain minting and contract deployment costs.

Step 5: Launch!

Once confirmed, your meme is instantly tokenized:

  1. The image is minted as an NFT (collection of 1,000)
  2. 1,000,000 shares are issued and made available for trading
  3. Your meme appears on the Memes.surf marketplace

After Launch

Once live, anyone can:

  • Buy your meme's shares with TON
  • Sell shares back for TON
  • Accumulate 1,000 shares to mint the full NFT

Tips for a Successful Launch

  • Pick a catchy, memorable name
  • Use high-quality images
  • Share your meme's link on social media to attract buyers
  • Engage with the community in Telegram to build hype
