> Retrieve the creation transaction information of a specified token

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Usage Note">
    <p><strong>Creation transaction context for one token.</strong></p>

    <ul>
      <li>This endpoint returns the mint-creation or contract-creation context for a token.</li>
      <li>Useful when you need provenance, launch timing, or creation-wallet attribution.</li>
      <li>Supported networks are <code>solana</code>, <code>bsc</code>, <code>base</code>, <code>ethereum</code>, and <code>monad</code>.</li>
    </ul>
  </Tab>

  <ul>
    <li>This endpoint consumes <code>30 CU</code> per request.</li>
  </ul>
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Use Cases 💡" icon="fa-lightbulb">
  <ul>
    <li>Attribute a token to its creation wallet or deployment event.</li>
    <li>Build launch timelines, provenance checks, and token-origin reviews.</li>
    <li>Pair token creation context with holder or security analysis for early-stage token research.</li>
  </ul>
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="How to Use 🛠️" icon="fa-book-open">
  <ul>
    <li>Set <code>x-chain</code> to one of the supported creation-info networks.</li>
    <li>Pass the token <code>address</code>.</li>
    <li>Use the returned creation details as the earliest anchor in token lifecycle analysis.</li>
  </ul>
</Accordion>

<Accordion title="Best Practices ✅" icon="fa-check-circle">
  <ul>
    <li>Use creation info early in token review so later holder, trade, and security analysis has a clean origin point.</li>
    <li>Pair this endpoint with trending, security, and holder endpoints for launch diligence.</li>
  </ul>
