Crypto Launch & Trading Glossary (A–Z)
Every term you need to understand token launches, bundlers, stealth tactics, DEX trending and trading — curated by operators, written for clarity.
Circulating Supply
Circulating supply is the amount of a cryptocurrency that a data provider treats as available to the public market.
Contract Address
The 44-character string that proves a token is the real one, not a copycat.
Crypto Trading Terminal
A crypto trading terminal combines market discovery, charts, wallet intelligence, and trade execution in one interface.
DEX Aggregator
A DEX aggregator compares swap routes across decentralized exchanges and liquidity pools, then shows the path with the best expected result for the trade.
DEX Screener
The chart aggregator every trader has open at all times.
DEXTscore
A DEXTools project reliability indicator built from selected blockchain and external signals.
Fair Launch
No presale, no VC round, no team bag - in theory.
Freeze Authority (Solana)
Freeze authority is the address allowed to freeze and thaw token accounts for a specific Solana mint.
Fully Diluted Valuation (FDV)
Fully diluted valuation estimates a token’s hypothetical value if its relevant total or maximum supply were valued at the current price.
Launchpad
The launcher-in-a-box - deploy, add liquidity, go live in one flow.
Liquidity Depth
Liquidity depth shows how much buying or selling a market can absorb near the current price before a trade moves that price significantly.
Liquidity Pool
The pot of two tokens sitting on a DEX that everyone swaps against.
Liquidity Provider (LP)
A liquidity provider deposits assets into a liquidity pool and receives a position that may earn swap fees while carrying market and protocol risks.
LP Lock
A restriction on liquidity-provider tokens or position rights until a stated unlock time or condition.
Market Cap
The number every trader shouts on a launch - and the one that quietly lies half the time.
MEV Bot
An MEV bot searches for opportunities created by transaction inclusion and ordering, such as arbitrage, liquidations, or trades placed around other activity.
Mint Authority (Solana)
Mint authority is the address allowed to create new units of a Solana token and increase its total supply.
Token Allocation
Token allocation divides a crypto token supply among defined categories or recipients; it is separate from vesting and circulating supply.
Token Burn
A token burn permanently removes token units from spendable supply, but it does not guarantee a price increase or prove that liquidity is locked.
Token Minting
Token minting creates new units of an existing token and increases total supply; on Solana, only the mint authority can authorize it.
Token Vesting
Token vesting controls when tokens assigned to a recipient become available; it is separate from allocation and from the circulating figure reported by data providers.
Trading Pair
A market where one crypto asset is priced and exchanged against another.
Trending
Not a chart pattern - a slot on a discovery board. Land it and organic buyers walk in.
Trending Score
A platform-specific visibility signal used to order tokens or pairs on a discovery list.
Whatever stage you're at — we're the stack.
Pre-launch? Bundle safe, warm wallets, fund quiet.
Post-launch? Trend on every scanner, chart and feed that matters.
The launch window is short. Don't waste it.
