Continuous Clearing Auctions (CCAs) let you launch a token and seed it into deep liquidity directly from the Uniswap Web App—without writing or deploying smart contract code. You can set up and run the auction in a guided flow.
Getting started
- In the Uniswap Web App, open the Launch auction flow.
- Choose how to source your token:
- Create new token: Create a new token, then launch an auction for its supply.
- Use existing token: Auction tokens already in your wallet.
- Follow the guided steps: Add token info, Configure auction, and Customize pool.
1. Add token info
Enter your token’s details. Note: These details can’t be changed after creation.
You’ll add:
- Name and logo
- Ticker symbol
- Network
- Description
- X (Twitter) profile (optional) — linking and verifying your account can help your auction get verified
Select Continue.
2. Configure auction
Set your auction details
- Duration — Choose a start time and a maximum duration. Longer durations can reduce volatility but take more time.
-
Auction currency — Choose ETH or USDC.
- This choice determines the pool token pair that’s created.
- It also determines what bidders bid in and how the raise is measured.
- Floor price — Set the minimum price (shown alongside the implied floor FDV).
- Supply & liquidity — Set how much supply to auction and what percentage of the raised currency to seed into the post-auction pool.
Depending on your configuration, you may also see options like:
- Graduation threshold (minimum raise)
- KYC
- Allowlist
3. Customize pool
Configure the liquidity pool your auction will seed into at the end.
- Fee tier — The percentage you earn facilitating trades.
-
Price range — Choose how liquidity is distributed across price points.
- Full range (recommended) spreads the raise currency and auction tokens evenly across a full-range v4 position.
- Any excess auction tokens become withdrawable after the auction concludes.
-
Liquidity recipient — Set the owner address for the post-auction LP. This wallet controls post-auction actions like fees, liquidity management, and withdrawing tokens.
- If left blank, your connected wallet is used.
-
Liquidity timelock (optional) — Lock the post-auction LP via Uniswap’s Timelock contract for a duration you choose.
- Bidders can see the locked position and its duration.
- Advanced options (such as buyback and burn) are available here.
4. Review & launch
Select Review launch to confirm your configuration, then launch.
Launching requires confirming a transaction in your wallet, which has a network cost.
Verifying your auction
You can verify your auction by:
- Linking and verifying your X (Twitter) account through Twitter’s verification flow
- Linking your project website
Verified auctions meet certain objective criteria establishing the identity of the token team.
Note: Verification is not an endorsement or recommendation of the token, the token team, or the auction.
Tracking your auction
Once your auction is live, you can track key stats—including the current clearing price, committed volume, and demand—from the auction page.
