So, there's a joke subreddit called Meme Economy where people discuss memes in a funny way - they post "buy" or "sell" signals about memes, suggesting that they are going to become popular or die off.
And today I got an idea, why not create a platform that actually implements Meme Economy - people can issue meme tokens by creating their own memes and sell it on the market. The process would look like this:
you create a meme image, send it to the platform and get some amount of tokens of your meme to your account, after which you can sell them on the market. The platform will feature its own cryptocurrency, something like "Meme Credits", for which all the memes will be traded. There will also be personal and group pages where people can post memes they own and comment, just like in social networks.

Thoughts?

Your idea look very brilliant but only on paper that is to say theoretically is a brilliant idea but there are many other factors to consider before you begin to spend your funds on this project.

How many people buys this meme per day ?

What is the ability for the market expansion?

Years ago someone made a memecoin and i dont think it ever really got anywhere.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=217526.0

There idea is different though.

From your idea it sounds like you want memecoin to be like how Steem operates. People buy and sell memes for coins or something doesnt make sense because anyone can just download a picture. It needs to be more like Steem and somehow i corporate ads into a website about memes maybe. Best memes get coins for likes that are used to get more views and more views = more ad rev maybe.

This is better idea for OP project. Especially if OP wants the platform look like social media, get coins from likes, view, share, ect.
There's need a moderator too, to see and control the platform from account abuse, multiple account, ect.

The problem is that the whole thing isnt going to be taken seriously. A platform for meme tokens can already be issued on the counterparty network and for the long long time that counterparty has existed the biggest token ever issued is probably foldingcoin which is a very very small coin in terms of market cap.

If you want to do it as a joke, then go for it and impress your friends. However I don't see the need to decentralise... Memes....
