token-list VS metaplex

Solana token-list repo 15,444 commits. Has anyone actually taken a look at what's in this repo? It's just commit after commit of people adding tickers/data/jpegs of Solana shitcoins. There's no actual development in this repo, it has zero value from the perspective of developing new features or improving the chain. It's just shitcoin after shitcoin, for example: adding TU-Sofia token adding GMOOLAH added wagmiticket tier 1 token json + logo

The top repository on the Solana list (15K commits) is just a huge JSON file plus images.

Hi, I am creating my own solana token and I'm almost done but I realized since 20th june 2022 the github repository ( solana-labs/token-list ) is archived. The problem is that I need to add a name and a logo for my token.

the issue -> https://github.com/solana-labs/token-list/issues/25891

Cool, now lets head back to the actual solana labs token list GitHub repo, here's the link : https://github.com/solana-labs/token-list

There are a bunch of different token lists, I'm not sure which one Phantom uses. Solana has one: https://github.com/solana-labs/token-list

The issues is I put in a commit request to solana-labs/token-list on github but its been sitting f0r a few weeks. Anybody updated the token list before.

What blockchain would offer the best pre-built libraries and out of the box support to get a marketplace up and running quickly? Probably solana is my bet, based on libraries like this --> https://github.com/metaplex-foundation/metaplex

The use of the candy machine smart contract is very low cost though; it just takes some on-chain rent for data storage until the end of the mint, and you'll probably want to pay arweave storage fees in SOL, so that the NFTs themselves have adequate longevity. But when it comes down to the minting website, it's open source software that's free to use. Look for the candy-machine-ui in Metaplex's offering. If you have JavaScript experience, it's pretty straightforward to integrate into your project website.

Did you lookin git? https://github.com/metaplex-foundation/metaplex

To upload the pngs to Solana we are going to use Metaplex, the protocol that is defining the NFT standard for the network. Go to Github and clone https://github.com/metaplex-foundation/metaplex

You can deploy smart contracts if you want, but it is highly recommended to use Metaplex (Docs here) since they already deployed the infrastructure and is currently the popular NFT standard.
