When should I avoid unlimited mint templates?

Avoid them when your team cannot enforce clear governance and custody policies for privileged wallets.

Is capped minting safer than unlimited minting?

Capped minting usually provides stronger holder assurances because total issuance has a hard upper bound.

Supply design is one of the highest-impact token decisions. Pick the model that matches your roadmap.

Fixed supply for strict scarcity

Mintable models for phased growth

Cap and role design to reduce governance risk

Fixed-supply templates are easier to communicate and often better for community trust when scarcity is core to the narrative.

Mintable templates support staged incentives, treasury operations, and long-term emissions, but require stronger governance controls.

Capped mintable models balance flexibility and limits. They are often a pragmatic default for teams that need future issuance with guardrails.

Document your supply policy publicly so holders understand what can and cannot change after deployment.
