Online business creator and crypto educator Baird has released a new hands-on tutorial showing exactly how anyone — even “your grandparents,” he jokes — can create their very own Solana-based meme coin without writing a single line of code.
The token created in this video? A fun and fictional project called Ninjafrog (NINJAF) — and it’s used to demonstrate everything from token creation to launch.
“You’re About to Become a Dev”
“By the end of this video, your token will be live, tradable, and in your wallet,” Baird says. “You’ll officially be a developer — your own dev.”
Using the Phantom Wallet and OrionTools.io, Baird walks through every step in the process, from setting the token name and supply, to launching it on the open market. He emphasizes how easy the tools are, requiring zero coding knowledge, and making it accessible for total beginners.
Step-by-Step Breakdown from Baird
Baird explains the full creation flow of NINJAF using Orion Tools:
- Create your Solana wallet (Phantom recommended)
- Choose your token name and symbol — a crucial branding decision
- Upload a simple PNG logo
- Set your token supply (Baird uses 1 billion, the common standard)
- Add an optional description
- Revoke Mint Authority to lock the total supply
- Revoke Freeze Authority to enable liquidity creation
- Optionally include links for Twitter, Telegram, and your website
“Revoke mint. Revoke freeze. These are the two biggest green flags people look for before buying,” Baird explains. “It shows the token is fixed and safe.”
Liquidity Pool = Going Live
Once the token is created, Baird walks through launching a liquidity pool on Solana’s AMM (Automated Market Maker) V4 — the modern standard.
He stresses best practices:
- Use 95%+ of your supply for the pool (he used 99% in the video)
- Pair it with a small amount of SOL (just 0.01 in this example for demo purposes)
- Avoid using CPMM pools with transaction fees — zero-fee AMM pools are the norm now
After pairing 990M NINJAF with a tiny bit of SOL, the token is live and appears on DexScreener.
Locking Liquidity with LP Token Burn
With the token live, Baird demonstrates how to burn LP tokens, effectively locking the liquidity pool so it cannot be pulled — a vital anti-rugpull signal.
“No one will buy your token if liquidity isn’t locked,” he says. “Burning LP tokens creates the green lock symbol on DexScreener that builds trust.”
Minutes after launch, the token price spikes over +12,000% (due to the tiny liquidity), and Baird shows viewers how to:
- Buy the token directly via OrionTools
- Track it on the DexScreener New Pairs page
- Update token details on DexScreener with logos, links, and banner
Final Steps: Market It or Let It Ride
“Congratulations — your token is live, tradable, and ready,” Baird says. “Now it’s all about marketing.”
He recommends posting memes, staying active on Twitter, and sharing your token’s story. While NINJAF was a demo, the process is real — and the tools are powerful.
“I hope this shows you it’s not as hard as you thought. Put on your dev hat — you’re in the game now.”
