FAQPage Schema
How do I create tokens on Solana with lower storage costs?▼

Token creation on Solana achieves lower storage costs using ZK Compression, which applies zero-knowledge proofs to enable rent-free account management. This approach significantly reduces expenses compared to traditional methods.

What do I need to use ZK Compression for token creation?▼

To use ZK Compression for token creation, you need a TypeScript SDK and a ZK Compression-enabled RPC. These dependencies allow you to interact with compressed accounts and the Light Token Program.

Can I use the Light Token Program for DeFi and NFT applications?▼

Yes, the Light Token Program is suitable for DeFi, gaming, and NFT applications. It provides a high-performance token standard optimized for hot paths, ensuring better transaction throughput for these use cases.

Why does ZK Compression improve transaction throughput for Solana tokens?▼

ZK Compression improves transaction throughput by optimizing the token standard for hot paths. This high-performance approach reduces storage overhead and enables more efficient transaction processing.
