Why we are doing this
Memecoins move a startling amount of money and produce nothing. We wanted to
know what happened if you left the machine exactly as it is and pointed the one useful output
somewhere that matters.
The fees already exist. Someone always gets them.
Every token launched anywhere charges a fee on every trade, and a share of it goes to
whoever launched the thing. That is not a flaw we invented a fix for — it is simply how these
markets work, and it is usually the single largest transfer of value in a coin's life.
So the question was never whether to take fees. It was who receives them. We pointed that
share at five causes, and now eight, and removed our own ability to change our minds.
Charities do not have a money problem. They have a follow-through problem.
Plenty of projects have promised a cut to a good cause. Most of the time nobody checks, and
the promise quietly becomes a marketing line that costs nothing to make and nothing to break.
Code does not forget, get busy, or change its mind when the number gets large. A vault that
has no function to pay anyone else is not being honest — it has no other option. That is a
much smaller thing to trust than a person, and you can read it yourself.
Why these causes.
Children's cancer treatment, wishes for critically ill kids, clean water, children in
crisis, hunger, cancer research, water access, and disaster relief. They are large,
independently rated, and they publish where their money goes — which matters, because once a
donation leaves our contracts we have no say in what happens next, and we would rather hand it
to organisations that answer for it.
Every one of them is fixed in the contract. We cannot move a campaign's charity after it
launches, and neither can the person who launched it.
It is still a memecoin.
Buying one is not a donation and is not tax deductible. You should expect to lose what you
put in. The donation is the fee routing, it happens whether the price goes up or down, and it
is the part we can actually guarantee.
