Happy S2 Rewards day Degens!

/folklore and @rafa to document and preserve the history of $degen in a way that showcases our community members, the passionate people building in the $degen ecosystem and the genius moves that made $degen more than just another memecoin

Check it out here, it's quite in-depth, I don't believe there's ever been an article this comprehensive on $degen

Tips & collects will be shared with the other writers who participated in the Folklore bounty and the Folklore community

We break down the $degen timeline, from @jacek original inspiration moments, to the partnerships that made $degen explode

s/o @alexmasmej.eth and @ace for being early with their platforms

Did you know Jan 27 is the day $degen officially made it?

We break down this and other onchain insights here

Thank you to @matt90 @jacek @ilemi and other dune wizards for the dashboards I based these insights from

Something that's net-new to this article is the detailed breakdown into the algorithm that decides your tips allocation.

I analyzed the dune query that decides it and broke it down in detail for anyone to understand. Any excuse to use LaTeX formatting

Farcaster's open framework and composability provide apps with the crucial on-chain social graph they need for a cold start, while $DEGEN could serve as FC ecosystem's native circulating currency, offering the liquidity essential for app cold starts. 

Farcaster + App Legos + $DEGEN economics = Onchain Social Summer.

As @0xluo.eth said, something that's made $degen extra special is how easy it is to build with it

I took the time to showcase the things done right by the team, as well as the builders who've worked to make degen what it is

@limone.eth @matthewfox @iamng @jtgi

Dad hat on:

The focus is /giving/
The happy side effect is /getting/

If you assuredly want $degen, buy it. 

The airdrop is a game we're playing together. Your scores will change violently before the game finishes.

Points aren't real until you cash out. If that frustrates you, hang back until distribution concludes.

Finally, we break down degen's relationship with BASE and Farcaster, and how these three ecosystems are developing something unique.

Ofc, with its due mentions to the memes and culture that's evolving around tips and the giving economy that degen has always been for
