Updating your token's supply information accurately is critical for maintaining transparency with your community. This guide walks you through submitting a supply update request.
Important Prerequisites:
- Select the Correct Token: Double-check your selection. Submitting a request for the wrong token will result in an automatic rejection.
- Locked Wallets: You must provide information on locked or vested wallets. Missing this information will result in rejection unless your project has a 100% fully circulated supply.
- Mandatory Fields: Ensure all fields marked with an asterisk (*) are completed.
Step-by-Step Submission Guide
To submit your supply information, please follow these steps:
- Log In: Log in to your CoinGecko account. If you do not have one, you will need to sign up first. (See: [How do I sign up for a CoinGecko account?])
- Access the Form: Scroll to the bottom of the CoinGecko homepage and click on Request Form, or navigate directly to the Partners Platform.
- Start a New Request: Go to the Request & Listing tab and click the + New Request button.
- Select the Category: Choose Token Supply.
- Fill in the Details: Complete the token supply form. Provide as much detail as possible to prevent delays or rejections.
- Submit: Acknowledge the terms and conditions, complete the captcha verification, and click the Submit Request button.
Understanding Key Supply Fields
To ensure your submission is accurate, please review how CoinGecko defines and calculates the following supply metrics:
1. Total Supply and Burned Wallets
CoinGecko calculates Total Supply as the Maximum Supply minus the total number of burned tokens. At the bottom of the "Total Supply" section, you can input your Burn Token Wallet contract address.
- Burned Wallet: A wallet holding tokens permanently removed from circulation (e.g., 0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dEaD).
- Direct Token Burn: If tokens are burned without a specific wallet, provide the total burnt amount and evidence of the burn transaction.
- Unminted Tokens: If your supply is not fully minted, provide the total unminted amount and label it clearly.
2. Circulating Supply and Locked/Vested Wallets
Circulating Supply is calculated by subtracting the total number of tokens in uncirculated wallets (locked, vested, foundation, or treasury wallets) from the total supply. At the bottom of the "Circulating Supply" section, you can add multiple locked wallets by clicking the + Add Vested/Locked Wallet button.
- Vested/Locked Wallets: Tokens restricted from public trading due to release schedules, security, or governance (e.g., Team Funds, Seed Investors).
- Missing Chains: You must select the correct chain for your locked wallet. If your chain is missing from the dropdown, it means the contract address hasn't been added to your token page yet. Note this in the Additional Information section, or submit a separate Token Info Update request first.
3. Initial Token Allocation
This section clarifies how tokens were distributed at launch. This data is vital for predicting trading behavior and estimating real-time circulating supply based on vesting schedules.
