❓FAQs
General Questions
Q: What are MFT tokens? A: Migration Fungible Tokens are receipt tokens proving you've migrated. They're exchanged 1:1 for new tokens after migration ends.
Q: Can I migrate multiple times? A: Yes, you can migrate any amount multiple times during the active period. All migrations accumulate.
Q: What happens if I miss the migration? A: You can claim via merkle tree if the admin creates one, typically with a penalty rate applied.
Q: How long do I have to claim? A: 90 days after migration ends. After that, unclaimed tokens return to the project.
Technical Questions
Q: What wallet should I use? A: Any Solana-compatible wallet works. Phantom and Solflare are most popular.
Q: How much SOL do I need? A: Approximately 0.01-0.02 SOL for transaction fees. Keep extra for multiple transactions.
Q: Can I cancel a migration? A: No, migrations are permanent once executed. You can't retrieve old tokens after migrating.
Q: Where are my tokens stored? A: Old tokens go to project vault, new tokens are in vault until claimed, MFT tokens are in your wallet.
Claims Questions
Q: When can I claim new tokens? A: Immediately after migration ends and admin finalizes the swap.
Q: Can I claim partially? A: Yes, you can burn any amount of MFT tokens to claim equivalent new tokens.
Q: What if the migration fails? A: For protected migrations, you'll receive proportional SOL refunds if the target isn't met.
Q: Do I need to claim immediately? A: No, you have 90 days. However, claiming earlier ensures you receive your tokens.
Security Questions
Q: Are my tokens safe? A: Yes, all tokens are held in program-controlled vaults with no admin access during migration.
Q: Can the admin take my tokens? A: No, smart contracts enforce the exchange rate and prevent unauthorized access.
Q: What if there's a problem? A: Protected migrations offer refunds. Contact project admin or platform support for help.
Q: Is the platform audited? A: Check platform documentation for audit reports and security measures.
Migration Process
How do I migrate my tokens?
Connect your wallet to the platform
Select the migration project
Enter the amount to migrate
Approve the transaction
Receive MFT tokens as receipt
Can I migrate multiple times?
Yes! You can migrate in portions. All migrations accumulate, and you receive MFT for each migration.
What's the exchange rate?
The exchange rate is set by the project admin and displayed in the migration panel. For example, 1.5 means you get 1.5 new tokens per old token.
Are there fees?
While migrate.fun remains public there is no upfront fee. Once the platform moves public an initial fee will be added to prevent malicious actors from spamming the platform with fake migrations in attempt to trick users.
Platform fee: 5% of total liquidity migrated (deducted from pool liquidity in quote token)
Gas fees: ~0.01 SOL per transaction
Claiming New Tokens
When can I claim new tokens?
After the migration period ends and the admin finalizes the swap. This usually happens within 24 hours of migration ending.
How do I claim?
Go to the Claims panel
Enter amount of MFT to burn
Approve transaction
Receive new tokens 1:1
How long do I have to claim?
90 days from when migration ends. Don't wait too long!
What if I miss the 90-day window?
Unclaimed tokens return to the project admin. Contact the project team directly for assistance.
Merkle Claims (Missed Migration)
What if I missed the migration deadline?
If the admin creates a merkle tree, you can still claim within 90 days, though possibly with a penalty rate.
How do merkle claims work?
Check eligibility in Merkle Claims panel
System generates proof automatically
Exchange old tokens for new tokens
May have reduced rate (e.g., 75% instead of 100%)
Why is there a penalty?
To encourage timely migration during the active period. The penalty rate is set by the project admin.
Protected Migrations
What is a protected migration?
A migration with a target percentage (e.g., 75% of supply must migrate). If the target isn't met, users get refunds instead.
What happens if migration fails?
Admin sells collected old tokens for SOL
SOL is distributed proportionally to migrators
You claim your share of SOL refund
How do refunds work?
Your refund = (your_tokens / total_migrated) × total_SOL_recovered
Technical Issues
My tokens aren't showing in wallet
Add the custom token:
Copy new token mint address from platform
Add custom token in wallet
Refresh to see balance
Transaction failed
Check you have enough SOL for fees (0.02 recommended)
Try again during less network congestion
Increase priority fee if needed
"Insufficient Balance" error
Verify you have old tokens to migrate
Check you're on the right wallet
Ensure tokens aren't staked elsewhere
Wallet won't connect
Try different browser
Clear cache and cookies
Update wallet extension
Try different wallet (Phantom, Solflare)
Security Questions
Can the admin steal my tokens?
No. Smart contracts enforce:
Fixed exchange rates
Automatic token distribution
Time-locked LP tokens
Protected vault system
What if the project is a scam?
Check project legitimacy before migrating
Verify official links
Protected migrations offer refunds if targets aren't met
Platform enforces security rules regardless
Are my MFT tokens valuable?
MFT tokens are only valuable for claiming new tokens from the specific project. They have no other use or market value.
Special Situations
I only want to migrate some tokens
That's fine! Migrate any amount you want. You can always migrate more later during the active period.
I accidentally sent tokens to wrong address
Blockchain transactions are irreversible. Always double-check addresses. Contact support for guidance.
The migration period ended but I still have old tokens
Check if merkle claims are available. If not, you'll need to contact the project team directly.
I have tokens in multiple wallets
You need to migrate from each wallet separately. Each wallet tracks its own migration.
General Questions
Q: How much does it cost to create a migration? A: Platform fee (enabled when migratefun platform is public use) + transaction fees (~0.01 SOL) + token/LP creation fee (~0.1-0.2 SOL)
Q: Can I extend the migration period? A: No, dates are fixed once set. Plan accordingly.
Q: What happens to unmigrated tokens? A: They remain with original holders. Platform doesn't force migration.

Technical Questions

Q: Can I migrate from Token-2022 to SPL? A: No, both tokens must use the same program (both SPL or both Token-2022)
Q: What's the maximum migration period? A: 365 days, but 7-30 days is recommended
Q: How are LP tokens locked? A: Via StreamFlow vesting (Raydium), Raydium NFT locks (BONK.fun), Meteora Vesting (Meteora), or pumpfun SDK locking system (Pumpfun)

Q: Can admin access funds early? A:
Unprotected: After migration ends
