1. Open the official app
Visit zonk.fun. Confirm the hostname before connecting a wallet.
2. Connect a browser wallet
Select Connect Wallet and choose an injected wallet such as Rabby or MetaMask. The production app supports Base Mainnet only.
3. Keep ETH available
You need ETH on Base Mainnet for gas. Buying also sends the reviewed ETH amount. Token creation is a nonpayable factory call, so it requires gas but sends 0 ETH to the factory.
4. Choose an action
- Browse newest, trending, or searchable launches.
- Open a token page to review its lifecycle, indexed trades, chart, and activity.
- Create a token from the launch form.
- Review a fresh buy or sell quote and its minimum output.
5. Confirm and verify
Read the wallet prompt, confirm the network and contract, then sign. After submission, use the transaction link to inspect the receipt on BaseScan. The token page can lag briefly while the indexer processes confirmed events.
A displayed quote can become stale as other transactions change the market. Slippage protection sets a minimum output; it cannot remove price, gas, contract, or token risk.
