Frequently Asked Questions

Should I keep mint authority for a gaming token?
Usually yes. Games need to mint new tokens as rewards, seasonal content, and player incentives. You can always remove it later if you want to cap supply.
What makes Solana good for gaming tokens?
Solana processes transactions in ~400ms with fees under $0.01. This enables real-time in-game transactions that would be more expensive on Ethereum.
How do I distribute gaming tokens to players?
After creating your token, use Solana Actions or your game's backend to transfer tokens. For automated distribution, integrate the SPL Token SDK into your game server.
