Only relevant to:
Owner
TokenMaster

In Status Communities, Owners and TokenMasters can mint new tokens and use them to set token-based communities and channels or delegate permissions to other members.

In addition to minting new tokens, Owners and TokenMasters can import existing ERC-20 tokens to their community. Importing is useful if you want to use one of the tokens in token lists such as Uniswap instead of your own minted token.

info
Token lists are directories of verified crypto tokens that platforms like Uniswap or CoinGecko keep. These lists include token names, symbols and contract addresses to help users interact with tokens securely.

  • You import a new token to your community when you set up a new community or channel permission.
  • The tokens you import appear in your personal settings under the navigation sidebar
    Settings
     >
    Wallet
     >
    Manage tokens
     option.
  • Owners and TokenMasters can import assets (virtual currencies, such as DAI or UNI) to their community. Currently, it is not possible to import existing collectibles (NFTs).
info
Adding your own list of tokens is not supported yet. You can only add tokens to your community by minting them or importing them from the Uniswap or Status token lists.
