Miggles presents an interesting paradox for Base. Coinbase launches a new collection called Mr. Miggles with 70k mints from 42k unique wallets (and 11 ETH in sales). A very successful open edition. The news of a Coinbase-backed meme kickstarted an unofficial memecoin which ripped to 100M cap this week. (MIGGLES) I and many others here minted the Miggles open edition as a part of Onchain Summer + Smart Wallet. There is no value capture between the Miggles editions and the MIGGLES memecoin. Traders who DID NOT do the officially sponsored Miggles campaigns outperformed those who did. I find it hard to see a world where Coinbase/Base fully lean into promoting official memecoins - which begs the question, what happens next? 404s are an interesting alternative - but this would make the $0.60 mint price of the open edition much high if they editions appreciated in value as the token mooned. How does Base *endorse* the things that appreciate the most in value while staying true to the open edition meta?

coinbase should fully lean in. why can't open editions just become 404s after the mind window ends?
