How Dreams Works
Everything you need to know about Dreams — what it is, why it exists, and how to make the most of your launch.
Getting started
Introduction
Dreams is a canvas to house the world's ideas.
When you launch a coin on Dreams, you're immediately given a platform. On this platform, thousands of people sit waiting, ready to support the ideas that resonate with them.
Each creation is a canvas. Use this canvas to rest, to dream, to try. Remember that if you care a lot about something, it's likely that others will care too.
This page is non-technical. If you just want to launch, head to the Create page.
About Dreams
What is Dreams?
Dreams is a launchpad and marketplace designed to house great ideas on Solana — one place for everything to live, from memes to companies.
Every dream starts as a coin. The moment you launch, you're handed a platform and an audience that's ready to back the ideas that resonate with them. No leasing, no fragmentation — just a single home where great ideas can grow.
About Dreams
Why did we build this?
The bonding curve is a remarkable mechanism: it lets anyone bootstrap an idea for free and launch it out into the world. Since the dawn of launchpads, hundreds of clones have copied that mechanism — and the space has only grown more fragmented and noisy.
Dreams is a call back to unity. A fresh start. Not another thin wrapper, but a full-stack home where ideas, memes, and art can live together instead of being scattered across a dozen disconnected platforms.
We're here to take on one of the hardest problems in creation: how do you make it as easy to launch a great idea as it is to post about one? How do you preserve the raw, free-market energy of the trenches while still protecting the people building real things on top of it?
Dreams is a home for projects, memes, and art. A single place for great ideas to live.
About Dreams
Who did we build this for?
For projects
In the future, it will be as easy to create novel software as it is to write a post. In a world where it takes no time or money to build a great product, a project's success will ultimately be predicated on its distribution and its ability to communicate. Launching a coin provides projects with:
- Immediate initial funding through the trading fees on their launch.
- Instant global feedback and attention on their idea from an engaged audience.
- Far better product retention by turning users into owners.
For memes
The line between a meme and a legitimate project has permanently blurred. A tiktok trend, an animal photo, a cult — in a world where any idea can be made manifest immediately, memetic energy is a core tenet of every great launch. Dreams is designed to house tokens for both memes and companies, because we believe the line between them will only continue to blur.
Features
All-in-one

“People who are really serious about software should make their own hardware.” — Alan Kay, 1982
Similarly, a launchpad that's really serious about deploying great ideas should build its own foundations rather than rent someone else's.
Dreams isn't a thin wrapper around another market maker. Every token lives inside one cohesive system — the same trading, the same tools, the same home — so the experience stays consistent and trusted from the very first buy. It's a closed, considered container built to be the best possible place to launch new ideas into the world.
Features
Standardized
Standardization is a big part of what makes launching on Dreams feel effortless. Every launch is deployed with the exact same parameters. The only things you customize are the ones that actually matter: your token logo, name, ticker, description, and social links.
In our view, it's far more useful to find the one set of parameters that works for 99% of ideas than to make every creator configure everything themselves. Less to get wrong, fewer ways to be exploited, and more of your time spent building the actual idea.
Features
Flywheel Mode
Flywheel Mode turns a token's own trading activity into upward pressure. When enabled at launch, the trading fees the token generates are used to buy back the token and burn it— permanently removing supply. The more it trades, the more gets bought back and burned, which is the flywheel.
- Opt-in at launch.Toggle Flywheel Mode on when you create a coin. It's completely optional.
- Buy back & burn. Fees fund market buys that are sent to a burn address, shrinking the circulating supply over time.
- Fully transparent.Every buyback is logged on the token's page — amount bought, tokens burned, and a link to the on-chain transaction — alongside running totals.
It's a clear, verifiable commitment that a token's success feeds back to its holders rather than leaking value out of the ecosystem.
Features
Anti-Vamp Protection
A “vamp” (vampire) attack is when bad actors spam the same ticker over and over — relaunching a popular symbol repeatedly to confuse traders, split liquidity, and drain attention away from the original launch.
To stop this, Dreams locks every ticker for 12 hoursthe moment it's deployed. While a ticker is locked, no one (including the original creator) can launch another coin with that same symbol. Once the 12-hour window passes, the ticker frees up again.
- One ticker, one launch per 12 hours. Each deployed symbol is reserved for the full lock window.
- Obfuscation doesn't bypass it. The lock ignores spaces, casing, and symbols, so variants like $COOK, cook, and C O O K are all treated as the same ticker.
- Clear feedback.If you try to launch a locked ticker, you'll see exactly how long until it's available again.
This keeps the first mover protected and gives every dream a fair, uncluttered shot at finding its audience.
Features
Milestone Allocations
When you create a coin you can reserve a share of supply that stays locked until your project hits a real, public goal. Instead of dumping a big allocation on day one, you commit it to milestones the whole market can watch.
Each milestone has a label, an allocation %, and a goal — either a market cap target or a date. Milestones unlock automatically: once your live market cap crosses the target (or the date arrives), that allocation flips to unlocked, and the progress is shown right on your token page for everyone to see.
- Transparent by default. Locked and unlocked allocations, goals, and live progress bars are visible on the token page.
- Up to 50% of supply can be committed across all milestones, so the float stays meaningful at launch.
- Optional.Skip it entirely and launch with no reserved supply — it's a tool, not a requirement.
Milestone Allocations let you signal long-term commitment without asking anyone to trust a screenshot — the chain and the chart do the talking.
Features
Permissioned fees
“Permissionless launches, permissioned fees.”
Anyone can launch on Dreams instantly, with no restrictions, and the token trades freely from the moment it goes live. When you launch, you simply choose how your coin should be categorized:
- Community / meme— a coin spawned organically with no single team behind it. A 0.1% trading fee goes back to the creator.
- Creator— an actual builder, team, or artist behind the coin. A 1% trading fee goes to the creator, released after a quick review once the launch passes $100k in volume.
Being categorized as a “creator” is nota safety check or a stamp of quality. It simply means we've seen proof that the project is run by who it claims to be. You can read the operational details below in the application process.

Community or Creator?
Community
A community coin is typically a memecoin. A tiktok trend, an animal photo, a cult. Although they may still have a “leader” or team of people driving them (social media managers, etc), these are tokens that don't require much capital expenditure to run.
Community tokens give a 0.1% fee back to the meme creators (or community takeover leads).
Creator
A creator coin is a dedicated project. This is typically a team of builders who are either using the initial trading volume on their token to get their idea off the ground, or leveraging the creator fee to create something novel (burns, reflections, etc). Creator tokens typically require more capital expenditures and resources to be supported.
Creator tokens give a 1% fee back to the project creators.

Creator coin application process

All coins launched on Dreams are immediately tradeable, no matter how they are categorized.
If you categorize your launch as a “community” launch, then there is no further classification work required, and you can begin claiming your 0.1% fees immediately.
If you categorize your launch as a “creator” launch, your token will then enter a review process, where our admins verify the legitimacy of your project.
Your project is only eligible to be reviewed after it has passed $100k in trading volume.
During this review process, your token will continue to be tradable, and your fees will be set aside for you to claim if you are approved.

Launch Tips

- Ensure you're fully prepared to launch. Creating a coin is a significant commitment. Once you start earning fees, you have a responsibility to your holders to deliver on your promises.
- Creator coins: aim to have the project in a beta state at the time of launch.Traders are highly sceptical, and attention spans are short. That's why it's important to show them what you are working on rather than tell them.
- Pre-hype will almost always hurt your launch.Many creators choose to “pre-hype” their launch before going live. This typically ends up hurting projects much more than helping. This is because of snipers and bots that go on to follow your account, and wait for you to post a contract address.
- Buy some of your project's tokens when you launch it's coin. This will also help to prevent snipers from buying up supply.
- Explain your project in clear, simple terms to reach non-technical supporters. Break down complex ideas into plain language everyone can understand. How you communicate on social media is extremely impactful.
- Creator projects with high-quality graphics and videos showcasing the project and team tend to perform significantly better and build trust.
- Share your contract address immediately after launch in a follow-up post. This makes it easy for traders to buy your coin and prevents scams. Scammers often launch duplicate tokens to deceive investors.
- Include a brief description and credentials in your bio.Supporters want to know your background and why you're qualified to lead this project.
- Consider locking and vesting team tokens.This builds investor confidence by demonstrating that the team won't sell tokens on early supporters and signals your long-term commitment to the project.

Your Project's First 24 Hours

- Be prepared to be active on X during the first couple of hours after launch. Traders will have questions, and your responsiveness can make or break early momentum. Being AFK (away from keyboard) for even 30 minutes can kill the momentum of your project.
- Create a main channel of communication i.e X community or Telegram group chat and pin all necessary info related to your project.
- You need to be incredibly active and standing by to answer everyone's questions.

Managing Your Community

- Tap holders for instant insights: Use your community as a live feedback loop to refine and improve your product.
- Turn your community into co-builders: Give them roles in growth so they feel like active participants, not passive holders.
- Host interactive moments: AMAs, product demos, or challenge campaigns to deepen engagement and create a buzz.
- Collaborate across communities: Partner with other creators, projects, or DAOs to cross-pollinate audiences.

Additional Tips
- Design for utility from day one: Even simple perks like early access, exclusive content, or voting rights give holders a reason to stay engaged.
- Be transparent about your roadmap:Share what you're building and when. Clear expectations build long-term trust.
- Show up consistently: The strongest projects are led by creators who keep posting, shipping, and engaging long after launch day.
