Minting Limits

Maximum Mints Per Transaction

Best Practices

Limited Edition

  • Set reasonable per-wallet limits for popular drops
  • Consider leaving end time open for slower-paced sales
  • Balance total supply with your target market

Timed Edition

  • Set clear start and end times
  • Communicate timing to your community
  • Consider timezone differences for global drops

General Tips

  • Test your configuration on testnet first
  • Announce rules clearly to your community
  • Consider gas optimization when setting transaction limits
