Get your token listed
By default a token on the explorer shows what its contract says: a name, a symbol, a supply and a list of transfers. A profile adds the rest, so that people who land on it can tell what it is.
What a profile adds
A logo, next to the name everywhere the token appears, including in search results and in the token lists of the addresses that hold it.
A description, so a visitor can read what the project does without leaving the page.
Links, shown as buttons on the token page. Fifteen kinds are supported: website, X, Facebook, Discord, Telegram, Instagram, Reddit, LinkedIn, YouTube, Medium, GitHub, blog, whitepaper, CoinMarketCap and Coingecko.
A contact address, which is how we reach you about the listing itself. It is not published.
Why it is worth doing
Because the alternative looks like a scam. There are only so many ways an unlabelled token contract can present itself, and "no logo, no description, no links" is what the fake version of your token looks like too.
A profile does not prove your token is good. It does let an honest project stop looking like a dishonest one, which is most of the battle on a young chain.
How to request one
There is no self-service form. Profiles are added by hand, deliberately, because a logo next to a name is a claim about identity and we would rather check it.
Open a ticket at support.l2protocol.com with the type set to Question, and include:
| What | Notes |
|---|---|
| The contract address | The token's own address, not your wallet |
| A logo | Square PNG, at least 64x64. Attach the file rather than linking to it |
| A description | A few sentences. What the project is, in plain language |
| Your links | Which of the fifteen kinds, and the full url of each |
| A contact address | For us, about this listing |
| Proof that it is yours | See below |
Proving the token is yours
We are being asked to put a name and a logo on a contract, so we check that the request comes from the people behind it. Anything along these lines is enough:
- Post the request from an account or address the project already publishes. A message from the token's official X account or website is the simplest proof there is.
- Or send a small transaction from the contract's deployer or owner address, and give us the hash.
- Or put a note on your official website that we can read.
If you cannot prove control of the token, we will not list it. That rule exists to protect the people looking at your page.
Changing it later
Another ticket, referring to the same contract address. Say what should change and what should stay.
If your project is handed over to somebody else, tell us. A stale link on a token page sends people somewhere the project no longer controls, and that is exactly the kind of thing that gets exploited.
What a profile is not
It is not verification of the contract. That is a separate, automatic thing you do yourself, and it proves the published source matches the code on the chain. See Verify your contract. Doing both is the strongest signal an honest token can send.
It is not an endorsement. We are confirming that the people who control the token asked for this logo. We are not saying anything about whether the token is worth anything.
It has no effect on the chain. Your contract behaves identically with and without a profile.
Related requests
The same ticket route covers two other things on the explorer.
An address label, which shows a name instead of a raw address wherever it appears. Useful for a contract people interact with often, such as a treasury or a router.
A badge, a small coloured tag on an address page.
Both are curated for the same reason, and both need the same proof of control.
