I activated [**my Creator Coin**](https://zora.co/@mikeshupp) on Zora: → Symbol: **$mikeshupp** • CA: 0x9b96...9d96, an ERC-20 token on Base Chain. Creator Coins tokenize a user's profile, and follow on Zora's implementation earlier this year of Content Coins, where each new post on the social app creates a tradable ERC-20 token on Base Chain, via a [**Uniswap**](https://app.uniswap.org/) liquidity pool. Now, with the implementation of Creator Coins, each new post's coin is paired in its Uniswap v4 liquidity pool with the user's Creator Coin; and the Creator Coin is paired in its own liquidity pool with Zora's native ERC-20 token $ZORA, also on Base Chain... thus capturing the value of all posts in a "[**flywheel**](https://x.com/zora/status/1936096447864488277)" of content creation.

Both Post tokens and Creator tokens on Zora are minted with a total supply of 1,000,000,000. For Post tokens, users receive an upfront allocation of 10 million. In contrast, Creator tokens allocate 500 million to the user, streamed continually over a 5-year vesting schedule. The token Market Caps increase or decrease in value with trading and attention, and can be viewed in [**DEX Screener**](https://dexscreener.com/base/0x9b96e84e64093eb75d939a0d81a98bdbacef9d96) and other charting platforms for decentralized exchanges.
