About
MemeCore is a purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain developed to support what the project calls the “Meme 2.0” era, where memes evolve from short-lived speculative tokens into sustainable cultural and economic assets that generate ongoing value. Rather than relying solely on hype, MemeCore’s protocol integrates mechanisms that reward participants for both network activity and the creation and spread of meme culture, making community engagement a core economic driver.
The network is fully EVM-compatible, meaning developers familiar with Ethereum tooling can deploy smart contracts and tokens using familiar standards while benefiting from MemeCore’s specialized incentive systems. A standout feature is the Proof of Meme (PoM) consensus model, which extends classical delegated staking with metrics tied to meme creation, virality, and contribution, thereby linking value creation with network security and governance participation.
At the heart of the ecosystem is the $M token, which functions as the primary medium for gas fee payments, validator staking, governance participation, and ecosystem rewards. Holding and staking $M allows users to participate in securing the network, earn additional tokens through contribution incentives, and engage in community-level decision making regarding protocol upgrades and treasury allocations.
MemeCore also includes ecosystem features such as Meme Vaults, a smart contract construct that accompanies each new meme coin launched on the chain and allocates rewards over time to sustained engagement and participation. Other tools aim to lower barriers to community participation in token creation and growth, reinforcing the project’s thesis that memes can become infrastructure assets rather than transient speculation.
Beyond blockchain mechanics, MemeCore’s model embodies a cultural shift in how digital communities and creators engage with blockchain economics, seeking to align community virality with economic incentives and long-term network value rather than transient price action alone.
