[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 and here



$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.
