How to Lock Liquidity on Solana (Raydium LP)

Buyers ask "is liquidity locked?" but Solana Raydium LP tokens are not always locked using the same tools as EVM chains. Founders need to know what actually counts as locked, and what buyers verify.

Key facts

  • LP tokens represent your share of the Raydium pool vault — custody of LP = custody of underlying assets
  • Time-lock via locker program = verified secured custody until unlock date
  • Burn to incinerator = permanent secured custody — cannot be undone
  • LP in your hot wallet = founder-controlled — buyers treat as pullable until proven otherwise

What this means

MakeMeACoin creates Raydium CPMM pools at /lp but does not lock LP for you. After pool creation, use Streamflow, Team Finance, or another locker — or burn LP to an incinerator. Launch Score reports USD-weighted securedPct when custody is verified. For definitions (founder-controlled LP vs locked vs burned vs sent to another wallet), read /what-is-locked-liquidity first.

Step-by-step

  1. Create a Raydium CPMM pool from /lp on MakeMeACoin.
  2. Receive the LP tokens in your wallet after the pool is confirmed — save pool address and LP mint from Solscan.
  3. Decide between locking (time-limited, unlockable) or burning (permanent).
  4. For locking: deposit LP into a Solana locker program and record the public lock URL for buyers.
  5. For burning: send LP tokens to a known incinerator address and record the transaction signature.
  6. Publish the lock URL or burn tx alongside your public Launch Score — refresh /score/{mint} after propagation.

FAQ

Does MakeMeACoin lock liquidity for me?

No. MMAC creates Raydium CPMM pools at /lp; it does not currently provide a native LP locker. You lock or burn LP yourself with a third-party locker or incinerator — no third-party service is endorsed as risk-free.

Is burning LP the same as locking?

Both can count as verified secured custody if provable on-chain. Burn is permanent; time-lock expires on the unlock date. See /burn-liquidity-solana for LP burns (not SPL supply burns).

What is the difference vs "what is locked liquidity"?

/what-is-locked-liquidity explains custody types and securedPct. This page is the practical lock/burn workflow after pool creation.
