How to add liquidity to a Monad token (V2 & V3)

Make your Monad token tradable by opening a liquidity pool. This guide covers pairing with MON, choosing Uniswap V2 vs V3, and seeding the pool.

To add liquidity on Monad, open the Add Liquidity tool, connect your wallet, and pick your token — it pairs with MON by default. Use the V2 tab for a simple pool or V3 to set a fee tier, enter how much of each side to deposit (the ratio sets the opening price for a new pool), then click Add Liquidity and sign — one signature creates the market.

A token isn't tradable until it has a liquidity pool. You deposit your token alongside another — MON by default — and for a brand-new pool the ratio you choose sets the opening price, so weigh it carefully. In return you get a position you can later top up, withdraw, or lock.

Monmint supports two pool types on Monad's DEXs. V2 is the simple, full-range choice and hands you fungible LP tokens; V3 concentrates your liquidity and earns a fee tier you pick, handing you a position NFT. Either way you'll need the wallet holding your token plus some MON — for the pair and for gas. Monmint charges no platform fee.

Walkthrough

Steps

  1. Open Add Liquidity and pick your token

    On the Add Liquidity tool, connect your wallet. The V2 tab is selected by default — leave it for a standard pool. Click Choose token and pick your token or paste its contract address. The pair side is already set to MON; tap the MON chip if you'd rather pair against a different token.

  2. Choose V2 or V3

    Stay on V2 for a simple, full-range pool that gives you LP tokens — the easiest first pool. Switch to the V3 tab to concentrate your liquidity and choose a Fee tier (0.01%, 0.05%, 0.25%, 0.30%, or 1% — the cut traders pay you); V3 positions are full-range here and come as an NFT. One catch: tax tokens work on V2 only, and Monmint nudges you back to V2 if you pick one on V3.

  3. Enter your amounts

    Type how much of each token to deposit, or use the 25% / 50% / 75% / Max shortcuts — your balance shows beside each field. For a brand-new pool the ratio you enter sets the opening price, shown as “Opening price …”. If the pool already exists, the other side fills itself in automatically.

  4. Approve the tokens

    Click Add Liquidity. For anything other than native MON, your wallet asks to approve the token first — you'll see “Granting access to …” and sign once per token. Native MON needs no approval.

  5. Confirm and go live

    Sign the add-liquidity transaction. Once it confirms you'll see “Liquidity is live”, and the new Pair Address (V2) or Pool Address (V3) appears below, linked to the explorer. Your token is now tradable — many teams burn their V2 LP tokens next to lock the liquidity.

Come back any time to add more, or use Remove Liquidity to withdraw. On V3, the Claim Fees card collects the trading fees your position has earned without pulling your liquidity out. To signal liquidity is locked for good, burn your V2 LP tokens.

FAQ

Common questions

Should I use Uniswap V2 or V3 for a new token?
V2 is simplest for a first pool — full-range liquidity and fungible LP tokens. V3 lets you choose a fee tier and earn more per dollar of liquidity, and hands you a position NFT. On Monmint, V3 positions are full-range, so there's no price range to manage.
What do I get for adding liquidity?
On V2 you receive LP tokens that represent your pool share and earn a cut of every trade. On V3 you get a position NFT that accrues fees in your chosen fee tier, which you can collect any time from the Claim Fees card.
How much does it cost to add liquidity?
Monmint charges no platform fee for opening a pool — you only put up the two deposits and pay near-zero Monad gas. For anything other than native MON, you'll also sign a one-time token approval first.
