Here is a step-by-step breakdown of how to launch your Stack! If you prefer a video walkthrough, watch the video right above!

  1. Mint a token for the 1155 pieces you want to create a mint page for.

    1. Suppose you’d like to reserve some editions for yourself. In that case, you can mint the quantity you want directly to your wallet by specifying the edition quantity & recipient address (if you’d like to reserve some for yourself, add your wallet address as the recipient).

    2. IMPORTANT: If you don’t want to reserve any supply, mint a token quantity of 0.

  2. Push “create” on the contract dashboard push “create stack”

  3. Select the 1155 token for which you’d like to create a Stack (mint page). Currently, you can only do 1 artwork edition per mint page. However, you can create an individual Stacks page for each token if you have multiple editions on the same contract.

  4. Name your Stack. The URL slug is automatically generated based on the stack's name; however, you can edit this.

  5. Add your payout address. This wallet address will receive the primary sales revenue from the mint.

  6. Select the start date and time.

    1. If you plan to do a pre-sale, this date & time is the start of the pre-sale mint.

  7. Select the Stacks mechanic.

    1. Limited Supply: Set a cap on the number of editions that can be minted.

    2. Timed Open Edition: Create an open edition with a specified mint duration.

    3. Velocity Mint: An open edition with a twist. You set an initial mint duration and then a velocity increment. The velocity increment is the number of minutes (time) removed from the mint clock for every mint.

      1. Example: Let’s say you create a 1-week velocity mint and set your velocity increment at 10 minutes. For every mint, 10 minutes are removed from the mint clock. If one wallet mints 8 tokens, 80 minutes will be removed from the mint clock.

    4. Marathon Mint: This is the inverse of a Velocity Mint. Time is added to the mint clock for every mint, extending the mint duration.

  8. Set up your mint specifications. This step varies depending on what Stacks mechanic you selected.

    Limited Supply:

    1. Specify your supply limit—the max number of tokens that will be on sale for this edition.

    2. Toggle on the pre-sale if you want to have an allowlist presale mint.

      1. Specify the pre-sale duration. Options include 1 hour, 2 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, and 48 hours.

      2. Set your pre-sale price. Remember that the pre-sale and public sale mint phases can have different prices.

      3. Add your allowlist.

        1. Download the template. Fill out all the wallet addresses and specify the quantity allowance for each address.

        2. Important: If you set a collector's pre-sale allowance to 2 and the public sale allowance is 5, and if they minted 2 during the pre-sale, that collector can only mint 3 more pieces during the public sale.

    3. Set your public sale up.

      1. Select your public sale duration. Options include 12 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours, 1 week, and no limit.

      2. Add in the public sale price

      3. Select the max mint allowance during the public sale.

        1. Note: Wallet limit sets a total maximum number of mints a given wallet address can mint during the public phase. Example - Wallet limit is set to 5. Wallet address A is on the allowlist, and mints 3 during pre-sale. The public sale opens, address A has 2 mints remaining.

    4. Configure your mint page

      1. Add a description of your project/token.
