Adding a Token to the Bancor Network

To add a new token to the Bancor Network, you simply need to create a "liquidity pool" for that token. Liquidity pools provide tokens with constant liquidity and allow anyone to "stake" in the pool in exchange for a share of the pool's trading fees and staking rewards.

Once live, any user can supply liquidity to a pool. The pool becomes more useful with each new user who adds liquidity, since more liquidity results in better prices on trades.  

There are no minimums to create a pool (you can create a pool with as little as $1 USD) and there is no central party controlling the process.

Get started:

Head over to our Data page

On the top right side, you will see a "Create pool" button. Once clicked, you'll be prompted to a new page, asking you to define weights. We highly recommend a 50/50 weight, which is most commonly used, and can be voted for impermanent loss protection and liquidity mining rewards.
