Now, Armstrongās other cat, Mochi, has inspired a meme coin named after him thatās designed to promote Coinbaseās mission to onboard the world to the Base network.
Letās learn more about the Mochi meme coin.
Key Takeaways:
Mochi, a meme coin on the Base blockchain, is inspired by Brian Armstrongās (Coinbase CEO) cats, designed to onboard the worldās online users to crypto.
Beyond its meme coin appeal, Mochi offers various products, such as NFTs, a contract inspector bot that helps keep on-chain transactions safe and a whale-detector bot that helps users spot potential opportunities.
MOCHI, the native token for the Mochi platform, is available on the Bybit Web3 Pro DEX.
What Is MOCHI Crypto?
MOCHI crypto is a meme coin named after Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrongās pet cat, Mochi. The token is powered by the Base network, a Layer 2 blockchain by Coinbase. As a company, Coinbase is pushing to onboard the worldās internet users on-chain through its Base network ā and a meme coin like Mochi directly supports this goal.
Unlike most meme coins, which are purely speculative, Mochi comes with built-in utility, such as a Telegram-based analyzer bot (the Mochi Inspector bot), PFP NFTs (Mochimons), an NFT game (Tamamochi) and feline-themed merchandise (Mochidise).
Mochi was launched in August 2023 with zero transaction taxes, attracting a substantial user base. In November 2023, it migrated to the SushiSwap v2 liquidity pool (LP) to optimize revenue as the project expanded. To avoid the 3% transaction fee required on SushiSwap v2, Mochi moved to Uniswap v3 in June 2024, restoring 0% transaction taxes.
MOCHI is the native token of the Mochi project.
