I really like the idea of charity coins. One risk that I immediately thought about: "Wouldn't memecoins do charitywashing by giving these institutions 5% of supply and then using it as an eternal pardon to do bad things just like some bad apples among effective altruists do?"

Making more interesting games vs more memecoins satisfies the fun component for sure - but part of the allure for memecoins lies in their utter simplicity. A hat, a frog, a dog - all extremely simplistic motifs to symbolize a range of emotions that can be painted on them by the buyer/seller/community participant.

As much as memecoins may be annoying and disappointing, it’s important to acknowledge that we have built a system where anyone can create and issue their own form of money. That wasn’t possible before.

Language is incredibly important. Under resourced people don’t need charity nor are they charity cases. Weal redistribution is 🔑 We need to move from charity models to community centric webs of care 👉🏾utilizing community centric fundraising models and its principles https://communitycentricfundraising.org/

If we had an additional internet layer in 3D (an internet-wide MMO, if you will), we could use meme coins to help pay for infrastructure and also reward players for spending time on the network. Anecdotally, my friends and I catch up during Fortnite matches...we all have phones but meet in cyberspace instead.
