ANT.spawn()

Static factory that mints a new MPL Core asset and initializes the ario-ant PDAs in a single transaction. Returns { processId, mint, signature }.

import { ANT } from '@ar.io/sdk';

const { processId, signature } = await ANT.spawn({
  rpc,
  rpcSubscriptions,
  signer,
  state: {
    name: 'My ANT',
    ticker: 'MYANT',
    description: 'My ANT token',
