In this guide, we’ll explore the detailed steps you need to follow to successfully list your KDA on CoinMarketCap (CMC). The process requires attention to detail, and I’ll walk you through each stage, offering insights on where to get the necessary information, including utilizing Klever’s API for key token metrics.
Listing your token on CoinMarketCap is an important milestone that can significantly increase your token’s visibility, liquidity, and market presence. To make this process smooth, I’ll also point you to official CoinMarketCap resources for more granular details.
1. Preparation Before Submission
Before submitting your token to CoinMarketCap, ensure you have the following data readily available:
- Project Website: CoinMarketCap requires a professional website for your token. It should feature clear, public information about the token, its use case, and the team behind the project.
- Whitepaper: Your token’s whitepaper must be available on your website, outlining its purpose, technical specifications, and roadmap.
- Social Media: Active and public social media accounts (Twitter, Telegram, etc.) to ensure community engagement.
- Contract Address: The smart contract address of your token on Klever Blockchain.
- Token Metrics: CoinMarketCap requires data such as circulating supply, total supply, and holder distribution, which can be easily accessed via the Klever API (more on this in Step 4).
2. Visit the CoinMarketCap Submission Page
To start the listing process, you need to go to CoinMarketCap’s official token listing application page. Here’s the link: CMC Listing Application.
On this page, you will be required to fill out detailed forms about your project, and you’ll be asked for supporting links and documentation. Make sure your information is accurate and transparent, as CoinMarketCap has strict criteria for approval.
3. Filling Out the Application
Here are some specific fields you’ll encounter in the application:
- Token Name & Symbol: Provide the exact name and symbol of your KDA as it appears on the KleverScan.
- Contract Address: Include the smart contract address for your token.
- Blockchain: Select “Klever” as the blockchain where your token resides.
- Market Pair Information: If your token is already listed on decentralized or centralized exchanges, provide links to trading pairs.
- Circulating Supply & Total Supply: These figures are crucial for market cap calculations. You can access these numbers using Klever’s API (details in Step 4).
- Liquidity & Volume Information: CoinMarketCap often looks for tokens with active trading volume, so if your token is actively traded, provide proof of this through exchange links.
4. Using the Klever API for Token Metrics
CoinMarketCap requires up-to-date token metrics to determine your token’s circulating supply, total supply, and other essential data. Klever provides a reliable API that you can use to access these metrics directly.
Here are the key data points you can retrieve from Klever’s API:
- Total Supply
- Circulating Supply
- Frozen Balance
- Holders List
To integrate this data into your submission, you can find detailed instructions on how to access Klever’s API here: Klever API Access to Crucial KDA Metrics. Make sure to provide accurate data, as discrepancies may lead to rejection of your listing.
5. Submitting Your Application
Once you’ve filled out all required fields and gathered the necessary data, submit your application. You will receive a confirmation email from CoinMarketCap acknowledging receipt of your submission. Typically, reviews take several weeks, during which CoinMarketCap may reach out for additional information.
6. What to Expect After Submission
After your submission, the review team will verify the details you provided. If everything is in order, your token will be listed on CoinMarketCap with a unique profile, and it will be updated regularly as your project grows.
CoinMarketCap may reject your listing if the provided information is incomplete, lacks transparency, or if the project does not meet their minimum requirements. If this happens, review their feedback carefully, make necessary adjustments, and reapply.
7. Keeping Your Token Data Updated
After successfully listing your token, it’s essential to keep your project’s data updated. You can use the Klever API to ensure that CoinMarketCap has the most accurate, real-time information on your token’s supply and other metrics.
Listing your token on CoinMarketCap is a significant achievement for your project and can bring increased visibility and credibility. By following the steps outlined in this guide, using Klever’s resources, and ensuring transparency in your submission, you’ll improve your chances of success.
