Do I need SOL before creating a coin?
Yes. You generally need SOL in your wallet to cover creation-related actions and transaction fees.
Before you start:
Open your wallet balance screen.
Ensure you have enough SOL for fees.
Keep extra balance for retries if network is busy.
If your balance is too low, creation or follow-up steps can fail. You can deposit SOL first, then return to coin creation. Keeping a small buffer is helpful because network fees can change slightly based on transaction conditions.
