Distribution Wallet Generation
Step 1 of 5 in the Token Creation Process
What is a Distribution Wallet?
A distribution wallet is a dedicated Solana wallet that serves as the central hub for your token's revenue-sharing functionality. This wallet performs several critical functions:
- Collects transfer fees from all token transactions
- Holds accumulated fees until distribution time
- Distributes those fees to eligible token holders
- Controls the token's treasury for future operations
Important Security Notice
The private key for your distribution wallet is extremely sensitive. If lost, you'll permanently lose access to distribution controls. If compromised, an attacker could steal accumulated fees or manipulate distributions.
Generating Your Distribution Wallet
Start the Token Creation Process
Navigate to the Token Creation page and click "Get Started".
This will take you to the wallet generation step in the token creation process.
Generate a New Wallet
The system will automatically generate a new Solana wallet for token distribution.

You must save this private key in a secure location. We recommend:
- A password manager like LastPass, 1Password, or Bitwarden
- An encrypted file on a secure device
- A hardware security key or offline storage device
- For maximum security, consider splitting the key across multiple storage methods
After saving your private key securely, check the confirmation box to proceed to the next step.
Best Practices for Wallet Security
Never Share Your Private Key
Your private key grants complete control over your distribution wallet. Never share it with anyone, including RevShare team members. No legitimate service will ever ask for your private key.
Use Multiple Backup Methods
Create at least two different backups of your private key using different storage methods. This protects against device failure, account lockouts, or other unforeseen issues.
Consider Cold Storage
For high-value projects, consider keeping your private key in "cold storage" - completely offline and disconnected from any internet-connected device. This could be a hardware wallet, air-gapped computer, or physical paper in a secure location.
Regularly Verify Backups
Periodically check that you can still access your private key backup. This helps ensure your backup methods remain viable and that you remember any passwords or access methods needed.
