Learn how to track the launch of Upcoming Tokens in Best Wallet by getting project updates and preparing to claim.
If you’ve participated in a pre-launch or fair launch token event through Best Wallet, you might be wondering when your upcoming tokens will officially go live.
While the launch date varies depending on the project, Best Wallet provides all the tools and updates you need to stay informed.
Token launch dates are set by the project team
The exact launch date for an upcoming token is set and organised by the token’s project team, and not Best Wallet.
When and how the token is launched depends on the project's developers. For example, some tokens might launch on decentralised exchanges (DEXs) during the claim period, while others may take longer. Factors like development milestones, token audits, and exchange listings all impact a token's launch timeline.
While Best Wallet doesn’t set these timelines, we’re committed to keeping you informed every step of the way.
Staying informed about token launches
To ensure you don’t miss any updates, here are the best ways to stay informed about token launches:
Check the Upcoming Tokens tab
The Upcoming Tokens section in Best Wallet is your central hub for tracking your tokens and a project's milestones. Each project page contains detailed information about the token, including when a token's claim period goes live.
Monitor project social channels
Many token projects actively share updates on their social media accounts, such as Twitter, Telegram, or Discord. Follow only a project's official social channels to receive the latest news directly from the source.
Enable push notifications in Best Wallet
Stay ahead of the curve by turning on push notifications in your Best Wallet app. Go to Settings > Notifications, then toggle notifications ON. You’ll receive instant alerts for important updates, including launch announcements and claim reminders.
Watch the token’s progress
Best Wallet allows you to monitor your token’s dollar value and real-time status through the Upcoming Tokens section. While tokens remain non-tradable until their official launch, this feature lets you stay connected to their progress.
How to prepare for the claim period:
In addition to staying informed, here are some proactive steps you can take to prepare for a token’s launch:
Check the claim period
Ensure you’re aware of when the claiming period begins and ends for your upcoming tokens. You’ll need to connect your wallet and approve the transaction to claim your tokens.
Prepare for gas fees
Claiming tokens often involves a gas fee, which can vary based on the network and current activity. Be prepared for spikes in gas fees, especially during busy periods. Make sure you have enough crypto in your wallet to cover these costs. Read our detailed guide on gas fees.
Know the token’s network
Each token launches on a specific blockchain network, such as Ethereum or BNB Smart Chain. Confirm the network of your upcoming token and ensure your wallet is geared up to claim via that network. For example, you may have bought a token using BNB, but it might be launched on the Ethereum blockchain, meaning you will need ETH to pay the gas fee when claiming.
Keep an eye on liquidity announcements
For fair launch tokens, the project team may announce the exact time and date for when liquidity will be added to exchanges. Follow these updates closely to know when trading begins.

Frequently asked questions around token launches
Q: Why can’t I trade my tokens yet?
A: Tokens purchased during pre-launch periods remain non-tradable until they are officially launched and liquidity is added to decentralised exchanges.
Q: How will I know when my token launches?
A: Best Wallet will send push notifications for important updates. You can also monitor the Upcoming Tokens section for launch details and check the token’s social channels for real-time announcements.
Q: Do I need to claim my tokens during and/or just before the launch?
A: Yes, most tokens require you to claim them before they appear in your wallet's balance. You can claim tokens after the claim period goes live, directly in the Upcoming Tokens tab or the project's official website — always double-check that you are connecting to the right website.
Still confused about when a token launch?
While the exact launch date of an upcoming token depends on the project, Best Wallet ensures you’re always updated and prepared for the claim period.
By regularly checking the Upcoming Tokens section, following project socials, and enabling push notifications, you’ll stay informed and ready for launch day.
However, if you're confused about why your Upcoming Tokens purchase has not yet launched, please contact the specific project to get an update from their team. If you're still unsure, please email [email protected] or message through the Best Wallet app so the support team can troubleshoot and resolve your issue.
Reminder: Nobody from Best Wallet will ever ask for your wallet’s private key or seed phrase.
