There are two main approaches to creating a cryptocurrency – each solves different tasks. Nomium will help you determine the right approach in advance.

A token on an existing blockchain

The most flexible and controllable cryptocurrency

Faster and cheaper to develop • Launch within a few months (estimated per project) • Ready-made blockchain infrastructure • Complete network security • Works on the Ethereum, BSC, Cosmos, and Solana blockchains • Suitable for solving most B2B tasks

Your own consensus model and operating mechanism • An independent ecosystem • Your own mechanism for regulating transaction speed • Scalability under load • Building your own blockchain – a service from Nomium — nomium.tech/services/blockchain-development/

Popular blockchains for creating a cryptocurrency

Token development on proven blockchains with different parameters of speed, fees, and ecosystem

Ethereum (ERC-20)

The standard for DeFi and Web3. The largest token ecosystem. High liquidity, proven smart contract security. Suitable for utility and governance tokens.

Binance Smart Chain (BEP-20)

Low fees, fast processing. Compatibility with Ethereum tools. Often used for payment and DeFi tokens.

Cosmos (ATOM)

< $0.01 per transaction, finality ≈ 6 sec. The IBC protocol for interaction between blockchains

Solana (SPL)

Over 2,000 TPS, with a transaction cost of about $0.00025. The tokens are a good fit for NFT projects, trading platforms, and high-load applications.

What tasks tokens are used for

A token will act as a tool for monetization, raising investment, or developing a product ecosystem

Payment systems

Internal settlements within the company, B2B payments, and transfers without banking intermediaries. Reduces the cost of transactions and increases their speed.

Loyalty and gamification

A token as a rewards system: accruals for purchases, user activity, referral programs. Higher audience engagement and customer LTV.

Raising investment (ICO/IDO)

Distribution of tokens for the purpose of fundraising: an initial offering on a crypto exchange or DEX. An alternative tool for startups to raise investment.

DeFi and financial protocols

Tokens for decentralized lending platforms, liquidity pools, and staking. Automatic payouts through smart contracts without intermediaries.

Asset tokenization

Creating a digital asset tied to a real object: real estate, shares, commodities. Simplifies fractional ownership and trading.

Corporate ecosystems

Governance tokens for managing a DAO, voting rights in the protocol, and access to closed features of a platform or service.

Token development standards

The choice of standard determines the token’s functionality and its compatibility with wallets and exchanges

ERC-20 — Ethereum

Utility, governance, and payment tokens. The basic standard for DeFi, ICOs, and most crypto projects. Broad support from wallets and exchanges.

BEP-20 — Binance Smart Chain

The equivalent of ERC-20 on BSC. Low fees, fast operation. Compatible with Ethereum wallets through MetaMask.

SPL — Solana

The Solana token standard. A speed of over 2,000 TPS, with a transaction price of about $0.00025. Used in DeFi and NFTs.

CW-20 — Cosmos

The token standard on CosmWasm. Smart contracts in Rust, interaction between blockchains through IBC. Used in DeFi and multichain projects.

Why create your own cryptocurrency

Your own cryptocurrency solves specific business tasks: financing, settlements, loyalty programs, and the development of a product ecosystem.

Direct access to capital

Issuing tokens makes it possible to raise financing directly through an IDO/IEO – without the usual VC rounds and banks.

New sources of income

Potential sources of income: transaction fees, staking rewards, token sales. The specific effect depends on the project's model.

User loyalty

A digital asset can motivate people to use the platform; tokens are applied in loyalty programs.

Transparency of transactions

Every operation is recorded in the blockchain and can be verified – which lowers the risk of fraud and increases the trust of partners and users.

Global transfers without intermediaries

Crypto transfers are made without banks, the SWIFT system, or currency controls – quickly, almost instantly, and inexpensively.

Ecosystem scalability

The token becomes the foundation of an ecosystem: wallets, applications, DeFi protocols, and crypto exchanges connect to it.

The stages of turnkey cryptocurrency development

We run all the stages of creating a cryptocurrency – from the idea to the finished product. The elements of each stage are agreed with the client. For swap and exchange platforms, see crypto exchanger development

Briefing and tokenomics Analysis of the business model, the purpose of the issue, and the target audience. Development of the tokenomics: issue volume, distribution, burning, and the vesting schedule for investors.

Choosing the blockchain and its architecture We select a suitable network (Ethereum, BSC, Cosmos, Solana), taking into account its speed characteristics, fees, and ecosystem. A description of the smart contract’s functions and access to it.

Development and programming of smart contracts We write the smart contract code in Solidity or Rust and implement the algorithms for minting, burning, and transferring tokens. Writing unit tests and optimizing gas consumption.

Security review and testing We carry out an internal review of the code for vulnerabilities and test the contract on a test network. Where necessary, we arrange an external security review. Verification of the contract in a blockchain explorer.

Launching the project Deployment of the smart contract to the production network. Setting up transaction monitoring. Connecting wallets and blockchain platforms. Support during listing on exchanges and DEXs.

Support after development and growth of the project After launch – support for the contract’s operation, making edits, and adding new functionality. Integration with new platforms and advice on listing the cryptocurrency.

Why clients choose Nomium to create a cryptocurrency

We create reliable tokens for business needs – not from a template, but entirely around the client’s business model

Web3 expertise, 3+ years

Nomium has experience developing smart contracts and token mechanics for EVM-compatible networks, including the Ethereum/BSC track, so tasks at the ERC-20/BEP-20 level fall within our expertise. For TRC-20 and CW-20, relevant delivery experience for the specific network and project requirements needs to be confirmed separately. We understand how the networks work and will help choose the best solution before development begins.
Security comes first

A security review of every smart contract. Verification of the code in a blockchain explorer. If there is a need – bringing in external auditors.
A distinctive partnership approach

We do not limit ourselves to fulfilling the technical specification; we study the essence of your business and propose long-term solutions.
A full development cycle

From tokenomics and programming to listing on an exchange. All the tasks are handled by one team of specialists.
High transparency of the process

Access to the repository, regular demos, and project reports every week. You will see the progress of development at every stage. If necessary, we sign an NDA.
24/7 support

If questions come up after launch, the team will answer. We will help with integration into exchanges, wallets, and partner platforms.

How to make a crypto wallet?

And what happens next?

A manager will contact you within 24 hours and arrange a meeting. If you wish, we will sign an NDA.

At the meeting we will discuss the project’s tasks, the blockchain, the tokenomics, and integrations.

An analyst will draw up the technical specification.

We will prepare a commercial proposal with the budget, timelines, team, and security audit.

Once the contract is signed, we will get to work.

Frequently asked questions about cryptocurrency development

How much does it cost to develop a cryptocurrency or a token?

The price will depend on the chosen blockchain, the complexity of the token, and the number of integrations. Creating a simple token is not at all the same as developing a DeFi protocol. We agree on the price after the briefing. Send a request and we will estimate the project within 24 hours.

What is the difference between a cryptocurrency (a coin) and a token?

A coin is the native asset of a blockchain that runs on its own network, for example Bitcoin – BTC, Ethereum – ETH. Creating a token means issuing it on an already existing blockchain by means of a smart contract, for example ERC-20 on Ethereum or BEP-20 on Binance Smart Chain. For most business tasks a token is enough: they launch faster and are easier to maintain.

How does cryptocurrency development work?

Cryptocurrency development goes through six stages: 1) briefing and development of the tokenomics; 2) choosing the blockchain and designing the smart contract; 3) programming the token and the smart contract, running tests; 4) a security audit and testing on testnet; 5) deployment to mainnet and integration with wallets; 6) support and listing on an exchange.

Which technologies are used to develop a token?

Nomium develops tokens on Ethereum (ERC-20), Binance Smart Chain (BEP-20), Cosmos (CW-20), and Solana (SPL). We use Solidity and Rust for smart contracts, and testing is done on the Hardhat and Foundry platforms. The contract is verified in a blockchain explorer.

Can a token be developed without technical skills?

Yes, of course! Nomium takes on the entire development process – from consultations on tokenomics to deployment and listing. All you need to know is the business task – the developers take care of everything else. We will explain every decision in plain language and agree on the parameters of the work before the project starts.

What legal aspects need to be taken into account when launching a cryptocurrency?

The legal status of tokens depends on the country. Security tokens (investment instruments) must comply with securities law. Utility tokens are usually regulated less strictly. Nomium recommends consulting a lawyer specializing in crypto legislation before issuing tokens.

Can a digital currency be placed on exchanges (listing)?

Yes. Once the token has been created and tested, it can be placed on decentralized exchanges (DEX), such as Uniswap or PancakeSwap, through liquidity pools. Listing a token on centralized exchanges (CEX) involves negotiations with the exchange, an audit of the project, and marketing support. Nomium offers its services on this matter.

Do you need to build your own blockchain infrastructure to launch a cryptocurrency?

In most cases — no. A token on an existing blockchain launches faster, costs less, and is immediately compatible with wallets and exchanges. Your own blockchain is justified if the project requires a specific consensus mechanism, particular governance rules, or isolated infrastructure. Developing your own blockchain is a separate Nomium service: nomium.tech/services/blockchain-development/
