Genius.fun Launches V2 on BNB Chain
The upgraded platform lets token creators set their own buy and sell taxes and distribute fees to holders.
Updated on Nov. 8, 2026 in Investing
Genius.fun launched V2 on BNB Chain, giving token creators control over buy and sell taxes. The update also adds a holder-rewards system that distributes transaction fees to eligible token holders.
Why it matters
The update shifts control of transaction fees from the platform toward individual token creators and their holders. It also links tokens to 76 tokenized stocks, expanding how crypto assets can be paired.
Each token has a fixed supply of one billion tokens and each launch costs 0.002 BNB. Tax proceeds can be assigned to up to 10 wallets or external treasuries, and the anti-sniping tax starts at 99% and falls to zero within 15 seconds.
The players
Genius.fun
Genius.fun is a token launch platform on BNB Chain that lets creators issue tokens with configurable fee structures.
The details
Creators can choose a default mode charging 2% per transaction or a configurable option with a 0.5% platform fee. Rates and allocation shares cannot be changed after a token is issued, and a token graduates when fundraising reaches 15 BNB, at which point its liquidity is permanently locked.

Market Dynamics
The V2 upgrade extends BNB Chain's token-launch model, in which platforms like Genius.fun compete by offering configurable fee structures. Pairing tokens with 76 tokenized stocks links crypto issuance to traditional equity markets.
Token holders on Genius.fun V2 may receive a share of transaction fees if they hold eligible tokens. Creators setting higher buy or sell taxes will raise the cost of trading their tokens for buyers and sellers.
The takeaway
Review the fee structure of any token before trading, since creators can set buy and sell taxes up to 10% and those rates cannot be changed after launch.
