## If you are moving from Clanker

A coin already launched through Clanker stays where it is: it keeps its own pool and its own fee terms, and nothing on this page changes them.

A creator who wants a bonding-curve launch can create a new coin on baselaunch. Apps and integrators can launch through the contracts directly, as Part II of the docs describes.
