Guys, thanks for all the input.
I made a token on TON minter (it was much easier than what I thought) and it became the funnest experiment of my life! I put a few TON tokens (less than 10 dollars) in the mix and started working on the project. On X, I asked people "who wants this valueless new token?" and 50 people asked me if I can send them.
It gave me a lot of good visions and understanding about the space and soon, I'll write an article about the whole experience!
