# Balance Fetching Hello, Shiba Scout! 🐾 \ Within the vast landscape of blockchain assets, you hold the keys to launch your very own token or mint from existing deployments, mirroring the gameplay of "Bitcoin punks". This freedom of creation allows your digital expressions to truly stand out. However, understanding the rules of the game is critical before you start playing. Here are the steps you need to follow if you're ready to launch your own DRC-20 token. \ **If not, feel free to skip straight to step 2.** 1. **Deploy Your DRC-20 Token:** First, inscribe the deploy function on your Doginal-compatible wallet. Here, you'll set your desired parameters for your DRC-20 token. 2. **Mint Your DRC-20 Token:** Next, inscribe the mint function on your wallet. Ensure that the ticker corresponds to either: * The DRC-20 token you just deployed, or * Any DRC-20 token that hasn't reached its fully diluted supply yet. #### Words of Caution * **Watch the Mint Limit:** Be careful not to exceed the mint limit specified for the DRC-20 token. Overstepping this limit would be akin to overfeeding your Shiba pup, and we wouldn't want that! * **Understand the Inscription Service Process:** If you're using an inscription service, keep in mind that they might first write the token to their address before sending it to you. This implies that the service-owned address might end up holding the balance! Remember, in the blockchain universe, knowledge is power. Understanding these steps will empower you to make informed decisions and guide you along the right path in your Doginal journey. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
