Part 2: MoonWhales — Launch Your Token Dreams 🐳

MoonWhales is our groundbreaking launchpad that allows you to create and launch tokens with ease. Here’s what you need to know:

1️⃣ Token Creation: Create tokens in seconds with no coding required, free to use (pay only gas fees), and instantly tradable on the platform.

2️⃣ How It Works: MoonWhales uses virtual liquidity (bonding curve) with an initial market cap of $400-$600 (BNB price dependent) and automatic listing on MSwap at ~$69,000 market cap.

3️⃣ MSwap Listing Process: When listed, $24,000 liquidity is added ($12K BNB + $12K tokens), the LP is burned, the smart contract is renounced, and the token becomes available to trading bots.

4️⃣ Benefits: Enjoy no initial liquidity required from creators, a fair launch mechanism, and seamless integration with MSwap.
