# Creating a basket

Creators are the reason baskets exist.

A basket is not generated by an algorithm in the MVP. It is created and managed by a person who has a view on the market and wants to express it publicly.

Creators can launch one public basket, write a thesis, choose up to 10 tokens, set weights, and update the basket over time. The one-basket limit is intentional for the MVP. It keeps the product focused and makes each creator’s basket easier to evaluate.

A creator starts by logging in with X.

From there, they create a basket, select tokens across the supported networks, assign weights, and write a required whole-basket thesis. Token-level notes can be added too, but the main thesis matters most.

A basket should answer a clear question:

Why should this group of assets exist together?

Good baskets are not just collections of popular tickers. They have a reason behind the selection, a view on the market, and enough clarity for users to understand what they are following.

After launch, the basket becomes visible to users.
