What is micro?
micro is a low-market-cap launchpad on Solana. You create a token, it trades on a bonding curve, and once the curve's fundraising target is met it graduates into a real liquidity pool where anyone can trade it.
Launches run on two audited protocols: Raydium LaunchLab ("Launch on micro") and Meteora Dynamic Bonding Curve ("Launch on micro via Meteora"). micro never holds your funds; every action is a transaction you sign in your own wallet.
Quick start
- Install Phantom, Solflare or Backpack and fund it with a little SOL (launches need roughly 0.03 SOL or more for network fees and account rent, plus any initial buy).
- Click Connect wallet in the top right.
- Open Launch, fill in your token, pick a protocol and mode, review and sign.
- Your coin appears on Explore as soon as the transaction confirms and is verified.
Explore and Graduating
Explore lists every verified micro launch. Search by name, ticker or address, and sort by market cap, newest or SOL raised. Each card shows market cap, curve progress and a small badge for what the coin is paired with (for example "/ SOL" or "/ QQQx").
Graduating shows coins still on their curve, ranked by progress or by how little is left to raise. Progress = amount raised ÷ fundraising target.
Step 1 — Create your token
- Name: 2–32 characters. Emoji and symbols use extra space, so the hard limit is 32 bytes.
- Ticker: 2–8 uppercase letters or digits.
- Description: optional, up to 400 characters.
- Image: PNG, JPG, WEBP or GIF, up to 2 MB. It's stored with your token's metadata.
- Category, website, X: optional. If you leave website empty, it's set to your coin's page:
https://usemicro.fun/coin/<mint>.
Step 2 — Protocol and mode
Pick a protocol, then a mode. MICRO is selected by default.
| Mode | Raydium fundraising target | Who it's for |
|---|---|---|
| MICRO | 24 SOL (the live minimum) | Most popular. Smallest, fastest curve. |
| MINI | 36 SOL | A bit more room to grow. |
| GROWTH | 48 SOL | Largest preset raise. |
| CUSTOM | You choose (≥ minimum) | Experts only. |
Raydium targets are multiples of the minimum raise read live from Raydium, not fixed dollar values. Meteora modes use micro's own Meteora configurations; a mode is only clickable if its configuration is confirmed onchain. The calculator below the modes shows the exact curve, starting and graduation market cap that will be deployed.
Step 3 — Economics and quote pairs
The quote pair is what people pay with. SOL is the default. On Raydium, you can choose any asset Raydium has a live LaunchLab configuration for, including stablecoins and tokenized stocks (NVDAx, TSLAx, AAPLx, SPYx, QQQx). You can also paste a Solana address; if Raydium supports it, it becomes selectable, otherwise the picker tells you why not.
Pairs that fail checks (paused transfers, transfer hooks, or no graduation pool support) are shown greyed out with the reason. On Meteora, only SOL is available until micro creates a configuration for another pair.
The advanced fields (supply, % sold on curve, initial buy, slippage, vesting) are for experienced users. Leave them as-is unless you understand them.
Step 4 — Review and sign
Before your wallet opens, micro rebuilds the transaction from the exact numbers you reviewed, checks them against the live chain and simulates it. If anything changed or would fail, you get a readable reason instead of a wallet prompt.
Buying and selling
On a coin page, enter an amount, check the quote and slippage, and sign. While on the curve, trades go through the bonding curve; after graduation, the page links to the live pool. Charts come from GeckoTerminal and may take a few minutes to appear for brand-new pools.
Coin pages also show holders (grouped by wallet), fees collected in the pool, the quote pair and the launch mode. Values that can't be measured are shown as unavailable, never guessed.
Graduation
When the curve raises its full target, trading on the curve ends and liquidity moves into a pool: Raydium CPMM for LaunchLab, Meteora DAMM for Meteora. micro only marks a coin graduated after it verifies the destination pool exists onchain.
Migrated liquidity is locked. Graduation is a technical milestone; it doesn't guarantee demand or price.
Portfolio
Portfolio separates the coins you launched on micro, your micro holdings, your recent micro trades and every other asset in your wallet. Values are estimates from available prices; anything unpriced is labeled.
Analytics
Analytics shows volume, trades, launches, unique wallets, pair and mode breakdowns for micro markets only, refreshing automatically. "Traders" counts wallets, not people.
Fees
Every Solana transaction pays a small network fee in SOL, and creating a token pays one-time account rent. Protocol trading fees are set by the selected Raydium or Meteora configuration and shown before you sign.
Wallets and safety
- micro never asks for your seed phrase or private key. Anyone who does is scamming you.
- Only connect on
usemicro.fun. - Solana transactions can't be reversed. Read what your wallet shows before approving.
- A failed transaction can still cost a tiny network fee.
Risks
- Low-cap tokens can be illiquid, volatile and go to zero.
- A listing isn't an endorsement or audit, and a token grants no revenue, backing or yield rights.
- Smart contracts, wallets and networks can fail.

FAQ
My launch confirmed but isn't on Explore.
micro scans for new launches automatically and verifies them before listing; give it a minute and refresh.
The wallet showed an error.
micro now shows a plain reason (not enough SOL, name too long, etc.). Fix it and retry; nothing was created if the transaction failed.
Why is a pair greyed out?
Hover it: the reason comes from live onchain checks.
