Title: [ANN] [BRC20] $MEME: The original memecoin community on Bitcoin
Post by: albertorma on November 20, 2024, 04:06:09 PM
[WARNING]
I don't endorse the usage of any currency or token other than Bitcoin. This post is purely informative.  
BRC-20 tokens exist on the Bitcoin blockchain only as metadata. They rely on an indexer and follow the account model, which incentivizes the misuse of Bitcoin UTXOs. Thus, BRC-20 is more of a social phenomenon — similar to Ethereum — and should be understood and used as such, rather than as a fully reliable token standard or network. You can read more about their drawbacks here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5451905.0) and here (https://layer1.gitbook.io/layer1-foundation/protocols/brc-20/documentation).

$MEME  
The second BRC-20 token ever created and one of the first memecoin communities built on the Bitcoin network.

---

Overview  
$MEME was distributed through a fair minting process that lasted nearly one month, ensuring all early community members had an equal opportunity to participate. Minting 1 $MEME involved embedding a small chunk of data within the script of a Taproot input, which incurred a small fee that, as dictated by the network, was directed to miners as compensation.  

$MEME is a social experiment with a fixed supply and no inflation. It’s a simple, community-driven memecoin that thrives on participation and shared enthusiasm, without pretending to offer any utility beyond its cultural value.

$MEME is now fully minted and is only available through purchase.
