Answer

How should I announce the launch?

Short answer

Post one announcement in your Telegram channel and one on X, both with the contract address in the text, then spend the rest of the day answering questions rather than repeating it.

Two posts, both with the address

The contract address is the only piece of information that lets someone verify they are looking at your coin rather than a copy. Put it in the announcement itself, in plain text, so it can be copied. A screenshot of an address is useless; a link to a chart that requires a click is nearly useless.

One announcement in the channel, one on X. Not five. Repetition inside a channel reads as desperation and, on Telegram, group messages are limited to roughly one per second per chat and 20 per minute per group, so a rapid burst can get the account limited.

Say what it is, where the address is, and that the authorities are null
Do not describe it as an investment or imply a return — most coins go to zero
Pin the channel post so newcomers find it without scrolling
Keep the address unchanged in every later post; never retype it, copy it

Then answer, don't repeat

The useful work after launch is answering the specific questions people ask: what the supply is, why the market cap showed a number before anyone bought, where the liquidity went at graduation. Each answer is new information; each re-post of the announcement is noise.

Telegram bots cannot message first, so your outreach is limited to people who come to you or who are already in the channel. A reported account becomes limited, which is why unsolicited bulk messaging is a bad trade.

0.198% of tokens graduate — 1,651 of 832,941 — and 68.67% last trade on their creation day. Plan the day around the possibility that nothing happens, and be honest in the channel if it doesn't.

Do not send unsolicited DMs to strangers; report-and-block tools exist and are used

What the numbers on promotion suggest

Coins that advertised a Telegram channel graduated at 1.485%, against 0.166% for those that did not. On X the move was 0.149% to 0.227%. These are small effects measured across thousands of launches, and they are the best case for spending money on reach. Announce once, clearly, and put the rest of your effort into the product and the replies.

The same figures apply to launch-day posts: a single clear announcement outperforms a burst, because the burst is read by the same small audience several times and by nobody else. Spend the effort on making the coin's page explain itself, since that is where a curious visitor ends up.

Where to go next

If the brand and the page are what is stopping you

Mint a Brand draws the icon, banner and stickers, builds the token site on its own subdomain and prepares the launch for your wallet to sign, for $30. Your wallet pays the network fee and is the creator of record.
