Degen

Once the current utility from free tipping disappears with the final airdrop, is there a genuine long term bull case for $DEGEN?

What will prevent it from decaying into irrelevance like the thousands of meme coins before it?

Looking for serious replies, not $DEGEN to $1 memes.

3. Stomached distribution phase (free tipping > sell pressure) to shine in utility phase (use > hold & buy)

> it’s good for Degen to stay positioned well in Farcaster (clients, apps) & contribute to their success going forward as a community currency

> onchain tipping can be a killer use case for social + crypto
