Case study — 03 · Token Ecosystem
ArcMint
Creator token toolkit with minting, vesting, and a marketplace. 120k mints and 900 creators in year one.
Overview
ArcMint lets creators launch tokens and editions without touching code — with vesting, splits, and a marketplace built in from the start.
Challenge
Creator tools either hide the economics or drown users in them. Minting had to feel joyful while staying honest about supply, royalties, and unlocks.
Approach
We modeled three token standards against creator needs, chose 1155s for editions, and tested the mint flow with working artists until a first-timer could launch in under ten minutes.
Solution
No-code minting toolkit, vesting contracts with readable schedules, revenue splits, and a marketplace with honest royalty display.
Key features
- No-code minting for editions
- Readable vesting schedules
- Revenue splits on-chain
- Marketplace with royalty display
Results
120k mints, 900 creators, and a sold-out genesis season — with gas costs 40% under the original budget.
