Token Account Management
Understanding Token Accounts
On Solana, each token type requires a separate token account (ATA - Associated Token Account). Forge automatically:
- • Creates token accounts when needed
- • Manages account rent (~0.002 SOL per account)
- • Closes empty accounts to reclaim rent
- • Handles account initialization transparently
Best Practices
- • Always verify token addresses before large transfers
- • Start with small test transactions
- • Keep enough SOL for transaction fees
- • Be aware of slippage on large swaps
- • Check token authenticity (verify mint address)
- • Use appropriate slippage settings based on volatility
