**Question:** How many tokens launch on Base each day through Zora and Clanker, and how much do they trade?

- Kind: Dashboard in Voltfin Vantage
- Topic: [Memecoins and launches](https://voltfincrypto.com/topics/memecoins)
- Chains: Base
- Status: Planned. The data is not published yet, so this page states no figure; each figure will open its receipt when it is.

Zora and Clanker, the launchpads behind much of Base's token creation, skip the bonding-curve stage used on Solana and BNB Chain. Zora creates a coin for a post or a creator and opens its Uniswap v4 pool in the same transaction, and Clanker, the token bot that started on Farcaster, deploys an ERC-20 with its supply placed as locked, one-sided liquidity in a Uniswap pool. A token can trade from its first block, so there is nothing to graduate from.

This dashboard counts launches each day by launchpad and how many new tokens are traded at all on their first day, then follows the volume and creator fees their pools generate. It sets Base beside Solana and BNB Chain with one definition of a launch. Zora's creator and content coins have a page of their own; this one compares every launchpad on Base.

## Blueprint

### Launches

Tokens launched on Base by launchpad, and how Base compares with other chains.

- **Tokens launched, latest day** (count): Tokens created by registered Base launchpad factories during the latest complete UTC day.
- **Zora coins, latest day** (count): Coins created by Zora's coin factory during the latest complete day, creator and content coins together.
- **Clanker tokens, latest day** (count): Tokens created by Clanker's deployers during the latest complete day, every version included.
- **Traded on day one** (%): Share of the latest day's launches with a swap from a wallet other than the creator within a day of launch.
- **Launches by launchpad and day** (count): Tokens launched on Base each day in the selected period, split by launchpad.
- **Base, Solana and BNB Chain launches** (count): Launchpad token launches per day on Base, Solana and BNB Chain, counted with the same definition.
- **Launch share by launchpad, 30 days** (%): Each launchpad's share of all Base launches over the last 30 days.

### Trading and fees

What launchpad pools trade and what they pay creators.

- **Launchpad pool volume, latest day** (USD): Value of swaps in pools created by Base launchpads during the latest complete day.
- **Creator fees, 30 days** (USD): Pool fees paid to token creators by Zora hooks and Clanker fee lockers over the last 30 days.
- **Volume by launchpad** (USD): Daily swap value in launchpad pools over the selected period, split by the launchpad that created each pool.

Filters: Period (Last 7, 30 or 90 days); Launchpad (Every registered Base launchpad).

## How it will be measured

- A launch is a token created by a registered launchpad factory, read from its creation event: Zora's coin factory, Clanker's deployers and other verified Base launchpads.
- Day-one trading counts tokens with at least one swap in their pool from a wallet other than the creator within a day of launch.
- Volume is the value of Uniswap swaps in launchpad pools, valued through each pool's pair asset and the oracle ETH/USD price at the block.
- Creator fees are the pool fees each launchpad routes to token creators, read from the hook or fee-locker contracts that pay them out.
- Solana and BNB Chain launches use the same definition with their own launchpad registries, so the chains are compared like for like.

## Data it needs

- `token_launches_daily` (to build): New tokens deployed per chain and launchpad per day, how many reached a DEX pool, and how many were abandoned.
- `social_tokens_daily` (to build): Creator and post coins minted, traded and held, and on-chain social activity (casts, frames, follows) where it settles on-chain, per day.
- `dex_swaps_daily` (to build): Swap counts and volume per DEX, pool and chain per day, decoded from Swap events, valued with stablecoin legs and oracle prices.
- `protocol_revenue_daily` (to build): Fees users paid to each protocol and the part kept by the protocol or its token holders, per protocol and day, including buybacks.
- `native_prices_daily` (to build): Reference prices of major assets read from on-chain oracle feeds (Chainlink latestRoundData) at each day's last block, with each round's update time.

## Questions

### How many tokens launch on Base each day?

The latest day's count is the first figure, split by launchpad, with the factory events behind it. Most launches come from a few launchpads, so the split matters as much as the total.

### What is Clanker?

A token deployer that began as a bot on Farcaster: users tag it with a name and ticker, and it deploys an ERC-20 with its supply as locked liquidity in a Uniswap pool. Trading fees from that pool are split between the creator and the protocol. Farcaster acquired Clanker in 2025.

### How are Zora coins different from Clanker tokens?

Zora coins are tied to a post or a creator profile, and a Uniswap v4 hook pays part of every trade's fee to the creator and the apps that referred the trade. Clanker tokens can be about anything, and their creators earn a share of the locked pool's fees.

### Why is there no graduation rate on Base?

Because Zora and Clanker tokens trade in a Uniswap pool from launch. The comparable question is how many new tokens are traded at all, which the day-one trading figure answers.

### Does Base launch more tokens than Solana?

On some days in 2025 it did, driven by Zora coins, which cost little to create. The comparison chart counts both chains with the same definition, so the answer for any day can be read from it.

## Glossary

- **Launchpad**: A contract or app that creates tokens and their first trading pool for users.
- **One-sided liquidity**: A pool position funded with only the new token, so its price rises as buyers swap the pair asset in.
- **Locked liquidity**: A pool position that no one can withdraw, so a token's first pool cannot be pulled.
