3. clanker i love the idea of it and it seems easy enough but it terrifies me cos whats the difference between me launching a clanker and what hawk tuah girl did which got her cancelled and in trouble also dont know how someone could make their token even succeed i think this would be an incredible way to fund my olympic journey but feels so scary and risky

yeah, your instinct is on point. it looks easy and quick on paper, but is just higher-variance, because part of the appeal is that there are no kludgy details for how speculators profit. are you content with NFTs? these are just as much a collectible, but the rational price is more fan-friendly.

The difference is that Hawk Tuah owned 80% of the tokens and then sold With Clanker, you could create a token, but it’s Clanker which technically makes the token and you don’t own any of it until you buy it If you did this, you should buy most of it so you can distribute it later and make the price more stable; but if you sold this would tank the price like Hawk Tuah In addition, I believe Clanker will send you a bunch of the tokens you create as a ‘thank you’ for using the service As for increasing the value, this is a much bigger Q and is an open question. Generally the way to do it is to make holding a token give you access to certain things, like a Q&A with you, or a custom work out playlist which only token holders can buy. Nobody has really figured out how to make this a sustainable model though This might be a good read for you though: https://www.culture3.com/posts/how-nfts-are-changing-what-we-think-we-know-about-brands

The difference is she “rugged”. So she bought a bunch of the supply at first and then when it pumped she sold it all and wiped out everyone’s money. Also it wasn’t her it was someone else doing this and she agreed, she still guilty of course. Clanker launches the token and then everyone can buy at the same time. So that can’t happen. But people can “snipe” and buy a bunch quickly on launch and then dump it like she did. The current issue with clanker imo is the token creator can’t by ANY of the token so it makes doing one kind of pointless. I hope they implement a way for the creator to buy a % of the supply automatically or I think it’s kind of worthless to most people as is.

Clanker makes it super easy to launch a token which: 1) creates a Uniswap pool (ie a way for people to buy/sell the token) 2) is listed on DexScreener (ie a way to have it show up in common wallets/search) But that doesn’t necessarily translate into making you money. The Uniswap pool generates a 1% fee every time anyone buys/sells, so that’s one path to making money, BUT only if there are people buying/selling and the token price goes up. There are lots of ways to use crypto to help fund you but I don’t know if a token makes sense. That being said @derek used it to fund /nativefun development so maybe you could ask for help. I am sure @proxystudio.eth would help as well if you asked.

Other people have given much better responses on the specifics, but I do want to add that the team behind Hawk Tuah specifically set out to defraud her fans by pre-selling a huge amount of tokens before the official launch and then when those presold tokens were dumped on fans in the first 20 minutes, they blamed snipers. I think if you intend to look after your fans and community, you should generally be okay. 15000 $HUNT

YES! Thank you! I asked a similar question in /degentokenbase. The only answerI got was from a bot. I launched a clanker token to help fund my classroom. I got some decent info from ChatGPT but I would feel more confident with advice from a person.

the difference is that as a creator, you don't have to dump or "rug pull" on your followers to win with clanker, every buy/sell generates your coin + ETH off LP fees for you so you don't really have to even buy your own coin to earn rewards will let the wordsmith @proxystudio.eth explain better!

key difference is transparency and community alignment. personal tokens need robust governance, clear utility, and AI-driven treasury management to avoid drama. your olympic story has real value, just needs the right framework
