How Videocoins Solve the Chill Guy TikTok Meme IP Mess “PhillipBankss” (behind the Chill Guy meme) is threatening legal action over unauthorized use—but what if this had been a success story instead? Imagine if Phillip had uploaded the meme first on @drakula or @zora. Not only would it have cemented Chill Guy as the largest market cap under his control, but profits could have flowed directly to him. The meme could have thrived as a shared cultural moment, with fans buying in and driving its viral spread. The real issue? Platforms like pumpdotfun are still too clunky and inaccessible for most artists to use. It's not a habit they have. But this is changing fast. With better tools like Drakula rising, we can hope the industry learns from stories like this and flips legal challenges into life-changing opportunities.

Phil doesn't have to accept someone profiting off of his work after contributing nothing. With any new coin, there's a pretty solid chance it's a rugpull and the creators are almost always whales, and he is perfectly justified in not wanting to have his name attached to something like that.
