This guide walks you through creating a custom Hive Engine token (example: '''CNOOBS''') in under 10 minutes. No coding required.

These tokens power the custom communication economy in v4call: you can set rates like "1 CNOOBS = 1 text message" or "10 CNOOBS = 1 hour video call", gift them to friends/family, or let blocked users bypass your blocklist if they hold enough of your token.

'''Why create your own token?'''
* Full control over supply and distribution.
* Real utility inside v4call (and any other Hive dApp that supports Hive Engine tokens).
* Scarcity you decide — perfect for personal or community communication economies.
* Transferable, tradable, and giftable via Hive Keychain or TribalDex.

'''Cost''': Approximately 100 BEE (Hive Engine's utility token). BEE price fluctuates — check current value on TribalDex or PeakD. This is a one-time creation fee.

'''Source''': Based on the official Hive Engine / TribalDex interface (as of 2026).

'''End result''': A live custom token (e.g. CNOOBS) that appears in users' Hive Keychain wallets and can be used in your v4call rates post.

== What You Need ==
* A Hive account (e.g. @noblemage) with Hive Keychain installed and the '''active key''' available.
* Some BEE tokens (≈100 BEE for creation fee).
* A web browser.

You do '''not''' need to run a node or write code.

== Step 1: Get Some BEE Tokens ==
BEE is the "gas" token for Hive Engine actions.

# Go to [https://tribaldex.com tribaldex.com] or any Hive Engine market (e.g. via PeakD wallet).
# Swap or buy BEE using HIVE or HBD (very easy with Keychain).
# Alternative: Many users get small amounts of BEE from community airdrops or by swapping on the built-in market.

Make sure you have at least 110 BEE to cover the fee plus a small buffer.

== Step 2: Log In to TribalDex ==
# Visit [https://tribaldex.com/tokens/create https://tribaldex.com/tokens/create]
# Click the login button at the top.
# Hive Keychain will pop up — approve the login with your '''active key''' (or posting key in some cases, but active is safest for token actions).

You are now logged in as your Hive account.

== Step 3: Create Your Token ==
On the token creation form, fill in the following fields carefully. Most cannot be changed later.

* '''Symbol''' — e.g. '''CNOOBS''' (uppercase, 1–10 characters, unique)
* '''Name''' — e.g. '''Cnoobs Coins'''
* '''Max Supply''' — Choose a number (e.g. 1,000,000). This is the absolute maximum that can ever exist. You can issue less.
* '''Precision''' — Usually '''3''' (allows 0.001 precision). You can only increase this later, not decrease.
* '''Website''' (optional) — Link to your profile or v4call server (e.g. https://call.yourdomain.com)
* '''Description''' (optional) — Short text like "Personal communication token for v4call — used for messages and calls with @cnoobz"

Double-check everything — the symbol especially cannot be changed.

Click '''Create Token'''.

Hive Keychain will ask you to approve a custom_json transaction. Confirm it.

Wait 3–10 seconds for confirmation on the blockchain.

Success message should appear: your token is now created!

== Step 4: Issue Tokens to Yourself ==
After creation, you usually start with zero balance.

# Go to [https://tribaldex.com/tokens/manage https://tribaldex.com/tokens/manage]
# Find your new token (CNOOBS) in the list.
# Click the '''Issue''' button.
# Enter the amount you want to issue to yourself (e.g. 10000).
# Confirm with Keychain.

You now hold the full issued supply.

== Step 5: Optional — Add Metadata (Logo & Description) ==
# Still on the manage page, click the edit icon for your token.
# Upload a square logo image (recommended 200x200 px or larger).
# Improve the description and website link.
# Save changes (another small Keychain transaction).

This makes your token look professional when users view it in wallets or markets.

== Step 6: Distribute Your Tokens ==
* Send to friends/family via Keychain → "Tokens" tab → Transfer.
* Airdrop to your community.
* Use in v4call rates (see below).
* List on TribalDex market if you want people to buy/sell them.

Tokens are fully transferable and appear instantly in recipients' Hive Keychain wallets.

== Using Your Token in v4call ==
Once you have your token:

# Go to your v4call server → /rate-editor.html
# In the rate editor (V2 format), create a new list like [LIST:token-holders]
# Set TOKEN:CNOOBS
# Define rates, e.g.:
** TEXT:1 CNOOBS
** VOICE:RING:5 CNOOBS;CONNECT:10 CNOOBS;RATE:20 CNOOBS/hr
# Your server will automatically verify balances using public Hive Engine RPC when someone tries to call or message you.

Blocked users can bypass your blocklist if you set ALLOW-IF-TOKEN:CNOOBS and they hold enough.

== Common Problems and Fixes ==
=== "Not enough BEE" error ===
Buy or swap more BEE on TribalDex.

=== Token symbol already taken ===
Choose a different symbol (add numbers or make it longer, e.g. CNOOBS2).

=== Transaction fails ===
Make sure you are using the '''active key''' in Keychain for token creation/issuing. Restart Keychain if needed.

=== Can't find my token after creation ===
Refresh the page or check https://hive-engine.com/tokens — it may take a few seconds to appear.

=== Want to issue more later? ===
You can issue up to your max supply at any time from the manage page.

'''Next step for v4call users''': After creating your token, update your v4call-rates post using the improved rate-editor.html to include your custom token rates and blocklist bypass.

You now have your own personal communication currency on Hive!
