# fairminter

URL: https://blockspace.wiki/glossary/fairminter/

A Counterparty message that deploys a fair-minted asset. A fairminter deploy whose description is a file is itself a [counter](https://blockspace.wiki/glossary/counter/); the fairmints that follow never are, so "a fair-minted collection gets one counter at deploy". Since Counterparty Core v11.2's `fairmint_pool` gate (mainnet block 961,100) a fairminter can seed a [liquidity pool](https://blockspace.wiki/glossary/liquidity-pool/) at soft cap with every satoshi it raised, minting the [LP tokens](https://blockspace.wiki/glossary/lp-token/) to the unspendable address.
