How to Submit a Token Logo using Assets App

A new Token can be submitted using the Assets application. This is a simpler way to create a request for adding a token logo and additional details.

Prerequisites

  • Github account. Submissions are tracked in Github, so an account is needed. Most developer teams already have Github accounts.
  • A fork of the assets repository. Changed files of the submission are stored first in a clone of the assets repository, so a fork has to exists.
  • Token should meet the minimum requirements for approval.

Fork the Asset Repository

How to create a fork of assets (if does not exist yet)

  1. Log in to Github
  2. Open the assets repository: GitHub - trustwallet/assets: A comprehensive, up-to-date collection of information about several thousands (!) of crypto tokens.
  3. Click on Fork in the top right corner, wait for process to complete.

Prepare the Logo

Note:

  1. You need to be aware of the type of your token (most common is ERC20), and its contract address. The contract address is an Ethereum address for ERC20 and BEP20 tokens, but it has different format for other blockchains.
  2. You need a logo file.
