How Bagstag works

Tag it. Launch it. Track it. Bagstag turns a cashtag posted on X into a real Solana token on Pump.fun — and gives everyone one clean place to discover and track them.

1. What is Bagstag?

Bagstag is a social cashtag launchpad and token discovery platform on Solana. You request a token by posting on X; once approved you launch it from your own wallet on Pump.fun; then the token gets a live profile with price, chart, trades and holders. The platform token is $BAGSTAG.

2. How Bagstag works

1. Request — pick a ticker and name on Bagstag. You get a one-time code and post @useBagstag $TICKER Name BAG-XXXX from your X account, then paste the post link back.
2. Review — the request appears in “Live from X”. Automatic checks run (ticker format, duplicates, existing Solana tokens, impersonation words, daily limits); an admin approves it.
3. Launch — sign in with your Solana wallet, verify your X handle once, pick where creator rewards go, sign one transaction.
4. Track — your token gets a live page and appears on the homepage. @useBagstag may reply to your post with the contract address.

3. Request a token

Requests are made on Bagstag and proven with a public post on X — no X login and no X API needed:

1. Open Request a token on the homepage or your profile. Enter a ticker, an optional name and an optional logo (cropped to a square and resized in your browser to 512×512, max 300 KB).
2. Click Get request code. Bagstag checks the ticker and gives you a one-time code like BAG-7F3K, valid for 30 minutes.
3. Click Post on X. X opens with the text filled in, e.g. @useBagstag $DOGECOIN Dogecoin Community Token BAG-7F3K. Post it from your own account.
4. Copy the link to your post and paste it into the card, then click Verify. Bagstag reads the public post through X’s embed endpoint and checks it mentions @useBagstag, requests the same $TICKER as its first cashtag, contains your code, and was posted after the code was issued.

The X account that wrote the post owns the request. Each post and each code works once.

• The first $CASHTAG in the post is the ticker: 2–10 letters/numbers, not only numbers.
• The name you typed becomes the token name (max 32 characters). No name → the ticker is used.
• The logo you added becomes the token logo. No image → a clean generated logo is used.
• One ticker can only be live once on Bagstag. Tickers of majors (SOL, USDC…) are reserved, and names that look like impersonation (“official”, exchange or wallet names…) go to manual review.
• Requests are limited per X account and per network per day.

Request statuses: Requested → Under review → Approved → Launching → Live (or Failed / Rejected). A request is never shown as live until the mint is verified on-chain.

4. Token launch process

Only the account that owns the request can launch it — the wallet account that verified the X handle which wrote the request post. Once it is approved, open your profile, choose where creator rewards go and press Launch.

Launches use Pump.fun’s official program through the official @pump-fun/pump-sdk (create_v2). The transaction is built in your browser, simulated, and signed by your wallet — you are the on-chain creator and pay the small network fee. A fresh mint key is generated in the browser for the token and discarded after signing.

After confirmation Bagstag verifies on-chain that the transaction succeeded, was signed by your sign-in wallet, created the mint and its Pump.fun bonding curve — only then is the token marked live.

5. Wallet sign-in & X handle

Sign in with your Solana wallet. Any Wallet Standard wallet works (Phantom, Solflare, Backpack, Jupiter…). You sign a plain-text message — not a transaction — that names this site, your wallet, a one-time nonce and the time it was issued; it expires after 5 minutes and can only be used once. Your wallet is your Bagstag account.

Verify your X handle. On your profile, enter your X handle and click Get code. Post Verifying my Bagstag account: BAGSTAG-VERIFY-XXXX from that handle and paste the link. Bagstag checks the post’s author and code through X’s public embed endpoint and links the handle to your wallet account; requests you posted from that handle become yours. The code is valid for 30 minutes, works once, and you can delete the post afterwards. Changed your handle on X? Verify again — your requests and tokens stay with your account.

Bagstag never asks for a seed phrase or private key and can never sign for you.

6. Trading through Pump.fun

Every token page links to pump.fun/coin/<mint>. While on the bonding curve the token trades on Pump.fun; when the curve completes it graduates to PumpSwap. Bagstag reads curve progress and migration state straight from chain.

7. Trading through FOMO

“Trade on FOMO” opens the token on FOMO (fomo.family/tokens/solana/<mint>), which hands off to the FOMO app on mobile. FOMO does not publish an official API or deep-link spec, so if the link ever fails, copy the contract address and paste it into FOMO search. Bagstag does not execute trades on FOMO.

8. Token information

Market data comes from public, verifiable sources and every number shows “—” if no source has it:

• Price, market cap, FDV, liquidity, volume, price change: DexScreener, falling back to the Pump.fun bonding curve on-chain.
• Chart candles and recent trades: GeckoTerminal for the token’s pool.
• Holders, supply and authorities: Solana RPC / Helius.

9. Creator rewards

When you launch you choose: Fees to me — Pump.fun creator fees accrue to your creator vault and you claim them on Pump.fun; or Fees to holders — a Pump.fun holder-reward coin, where creator fees go to holders. The holder option is permanent. Your account page shows the verified, on-chain unclaimed balance of your creator vault.

10. FAQ

Does posting on X launch a token instantly?

No. A post creates a request. A token exists only after you sign the launch transaction and it is verified on-chain.

What does launching cost?

Only Solana network and Pump.fun program fees paid by your wallet. Bagstag charges nothing.

Is $BAGSTAG live?

The official mint is shown on the homepage once deployed. Until then it reads “Token Launch Coming Soon” — ignore any address not shown there.

Can I search tokens not launched on Bagstag?

Yes — paste any Solana contract address in search to open its live token page, clearly marked “Not launched via Bagstag”.

Terms

Bagstag is an interface. Tokens are created and controlled by their requesters; trading happens on third-party venues. Memecoins are highly volatile and can go to zero. Nothing on this site is financial advice. Requests may be rejected for any reason, including impersonation or abuse.

Privacy

Bagstag stores your wallet address, the X handle you verified and its display name, the public posts you submit as requests or handle proofs, and logos you upload. There is no X login and no X tokens. Rate limits use a one-way hash of your IP address; raw IPs are not stored.
