Overview

Introduction

The MemeTrade ecosystem is powered by two main tokens:

  • MEME: The platform's governance and utility token

  • User-Created Tokens: Meme tokens created through the platform

MEME Token

The MEME token serves as the backbone of the MemeTrade ecosystem, providing governance rights, platform utility, and economic incentives.

Key Functions

  1. Governance

    • Vote on platform proposals

    • Participate in treasury management

    • Influence protocol parameters

  2. Utility

    • Pay creation fees for new tokens

    • Provide liquidity for new token pairs

    • Access premium features

  3. Economic Incentives

    • Liquidity mining rewards

    • Future: Trading fee discounts (governance-controlled)

    • Future: Staking rewards (see roadmap below)

Economic Model

Fee Structure

  1. Token Creation Fees (Supply Tier Based)

    • Casual Tier (100k tokens):

      • Basic Template: 100 MEME

      • Viral Template: 200 MEME

    • Serious Tier (1M tokens):

      • Basic Template: 1,000 MEME (10x multiplier)

      • Viral Template: 2,000 MEME (10x multiplier)

    • Mega Tier (10M tokens):

      • Basic Template: 10,000 MEME (100x multiplier)

      • Viral Template: 20,000 MEME (100x multiplier)

  2. Trading Fees

    • 0.3% on all swaps

    • 100% goes to liquidity providers

    • Future: Protocol fee switch (governance controlled)

  3. Protocol Revenue

    • Creation fees → Treasury

    • Bonding curve proceeds → Treasury

    • Future: Protocol trading fees (if activated by governance)

Supply Dynamics

  • Dynamic Supply: MEME is minted for each new token's liquidity pool

  • Inflationary Pressure:

    • Liquidity mining emissions (fixed 200M over 3 years)

    • New token liquidity (10-1,000 MEME per token created)

  • Supply Cap: No hard cap, but liquidity minting has governance-controlled limits

  • Deflationary Mechanisms: Can be implemented via governance

User-Created Tokens

Supply Tiers

Each user-created token must choose from three supply tiers:

  1. Casual Tier

    • Supply: 100,000 tokens

    • Liquidity: 10 MEME

    • Use case: Small communities, friend groups

  2. Serious Tier

    • Supply: 1,000,000 tokens

    • Liquidity: 100 MEME

    • Use case: Serious projects, larger communities

  3. Mega Tier

    • Supply: 10,000,000 tokens

    • Liquidity: 1,000 MEME

    • Use case: Maximum scale projects

Viral Template Growth

Viral templates add growth mechanics:

  • Casual Viral: No growth (stays at 100k)

  • Serious Viral: Up to 10x growth (1M → 10M)

  • Mega Viral: Up to 100x growth (10M → 1B)

Initial Liquidity

  • Automatically paired with MEME

  • Entire token supply added to liquidity

  • Uniform starting price: 0.0001 MEME per token

  • Locked in Uniswap V4 pool

Creator Rights

  • 10% mint capacity for creators

  • Must be minted within 30 days
