Meme Coin Exploration: The Future of $STUFF[edit | edit source]
This page documents our research, strategy, and decision-making process as we explore launching a meme coin to power both the in-game and external economy of Capitalism: The Ruthless Pursuit of Stuff.
- Launch a meme coin that integrates with the Capitalism board game, app, and media ecosystem
- Ensure it’s fun, useful, and potentially valuable inside and outside the game
- Use the coin to reward players, track games, and fund expansion
- Monetize ethically (or satirically), without pay-to-win
