Mint creator reserves

PreviousHiding a collectionNextAirdropping tokens

Last updated 3 months ago

Creator reserves are tokens that are minted directly to the artist themselves (in the art world this is a common practice known as artist proof). Additional tokens can be reserved for friends and family.

Minting creator reserves on Highlight

Creator reserves will mint tokens from the collection to the associated wallet address. This can be done prior to any public or private sale opening.

To mint creator reserves, head to the collection management page. Select “Mint creator reserves”.

On the pop-up, simply input the amount of tokens you’d like to mint.

Confirm the transaction in your wallet and the token will be minted to your wallet!
