All right. Sounds wonderful. Thank you.
I'm still trying to figure out if I'm successfully connected. Can anyone hear me?
Yes, we can hear you perfectly.
Amazing. Hey, friends. We're here again.
Oh, Floki. Pedro? Is Pedro there?
Amazing. Amazing. And Chef D, right? From the Simon Cat?
Amazing. Happy to see you again.
Yeah, we've got a lot of friends here. I'm very excited.
Oh, I think we are still supposed to play some music before it starts, right? Should we hear some music?
I believe once we unmute, we cannot turn the music back on.
Oh, I'm sorry. I speak too much. Next time.
All right. Just tell us what to do next.
Let us wait for one more minute to wait for a few more people to join and then feel free to start the session.
All right. I will remain silent and see, like, how many more people we're going to get today.
I've seen a lot of familiar faces, actually.
All right. I will remain silent.
I will be quiet a little bit.
All right. All right. All right. I will. I will.
Wow. I've seen many friends here.
Oh, people are thumbs up to us.
We got a wonderful agenda today.
I think quite many people have gathered.
Gala, feel free to start when you're ready.
It's actually the very first AMA I'm hosting at the BNB chain.
Well, I'm not sure about you.
It's 6 a.m. in Seattle, Washington.
I'm still waking up, actually.
My name is Gala Wen, ecosystem director on BNB chain.
Today, we have our three amazing builder friends.
They're a well-known OG meme, Floki.
We have Pedro here representing Floki.
We also have a new rising star on BNB chain, our newborn Simon Cat.
Simon Cat, I actually just checked.
And last but not least, one of our four major meme launchpad projects, 4.meme, as our beloved
guests joining today's Twitter space.
This is a weekly AMA session hosted by Gala Wen, Ling Wei.
Today's topic is meme season on BNB chain.
Well, if there's anything else you'd like us to discuss, feel free to share your ideas
and creativities with us.
We're here for the community.
We're here for the builders.
Just let us know what you need.
A little bit background about the current meme vibe on BNB chain.
BNB chain so far, right, we have like four meme launchpads.
There are four dot meme, like PumpFun, right?
A fair launch permissionless meme platform go directly to PancakeSwap once you reach the
And we have Flap, a KOL-focused meme launchpad where you can actually also one-on-one bet
and then grab losers liquidity.
And the third one we have is MyShell.
It is an AI consumer layer for everyone to build, share, and own AI apps, allowing crypto
digents to invest in early-stage AI contents like memes, right?
So meme is one of MyShell's use case, actually.
BIRV is a consumer-driven bonding curve defect protocols for innovative liquidity and token
So you can actually do utility tokens and treat memes.
I'm not going to go into all the details right now.
Let's move to the latest achievements in the BNB chain meme space.
On August 22nd, our volume rate was around like $2.5 billion, which I don't mean to brag,
It's about the same as Ethereum, Solana, and BASE combined.
We have hundreds of memes launched on these platforms daily.
And our native tokens, like SimonCat we have here today, they have already launched to multiple
CEX, like KuCoin, Gate, Maxi, all in one day.
And we also have Y, which is the elephant one.
It's already listed on BitGat, BitMart, Gate, LBank, and then a lot of the others.
Well, of course, this is not financial advice.
Please do your own research before engaging with any token-related projects.
Well, enough with the backgrounds.
Let's welcome our amazing guests today, Pedro from Floki, Shifty from Simon, and the team
like for 4.meme, the meme launchpad on BNB chain.
I will now hand over the mic so each of you can introduce yourself.
I'm going to mute myself again so that you can introduce yourself.
No, you're doing wonderful.
I am the Community Relations Officer for Floki, and I'm very excited about your conversation
today where we get to essentially do a deep dive on our ecosystem as well as our voyage
on how we've gotten from just a meme project to meme plus to enhance utility.
Well, thank you for the intro.
Then I guess we'll introduce Simon's Caps.
My name is Chef D, the head chef here at Simon's Cat.
So we've actually started out as a popular animated cartoon series in 2008, one of the
And now we've decided to launch our own token, the Simon's Cat token, which is the official
token of the Simon's Cat brand.
And as you guys know, it's launched in partnership with Floki on BNB chain.
I'm going to throw you a lot of questions.
Greetings to Gala, Simon's Cat and Floki, the DCC head of BD for 4.meme.
And thank you for having us today.
I'm very excited to be here.
So 4.meme is the premium launchpad for Meme Croson BSC.
We launched in July, 2024.
And so far we've launched more than 3,000 tokens.
And more than 50 products are already listed on Pancake Squad.
We provide a very user-friendly interface to have users to launch their product without
any kind of like technical skill.
And it only takes a few seconds.
Very simple trading features also include in our platform as well.
So if you are here listening to the space, feel free to head over to our website 4.meme
and enjoy the features there.
So I'm going to throw you guys another round of questions.
Not many Meme tokens are able to survive through cycles, but you did.
As a successful OG, what are your thoughts on the Meme landscape of this cycle?
Well, I think that the last couple of years have been very, very exciting in blockchain in
Obviously, there's been quite a bit of turbulence in the last couple of years.
And a lot of projects haven't really been able to survive.
And just like evolution holds its place in nature, in blockchain, you see the very same
It's those projects that are able to evolve and understand what the demands are of the
current day, but as well as the demands of tomorrow.
So when we're looking at the Meme space, you know, objectively, you know, outside looking
in, we're seeing something that is really remarkable because typically you have, you know, companies
For example, here in the States, we have an insurance company, right?
And that insurance company was in business for many, many years, offered incredible services.
But what they really utilized to capture the hearts and minds of their customer base is
And you could most certainly make the case that when you're looking at very successful
companies, it is their logo, their icon, right?
And it's their brand that really makes it stand up on the next level.
So when you think of Geico, you think of a Geico, right?
You don't think of the multitude of insurance products that they provide.
And if you're going through the curriculum, you know, of an MBA or a master's in finance,
they spend so much time, right?
When you're looking at marketing and branding and they're looking at the balance sheets and
all that's very, very important.
But what's happening in the crypto space, specifically in the Meme space, is very exciting because instead
of having to spend 20 to 30 years to build up your corporation, to then have a very solid
marketing campaign that's able to identify your mascot, your logo, right?
Now you can create a massive project, a corporation with the avatar or the Meme first and then
And that's not something that traditional like investors in finance were able to wrap their
So we've seen the different levels of Meme, starting with Doge and then SHIB and then,
you know, Floki ushering the third generation of Meme tokens.
This is very exciting because now it gives an opportunity for those, you know, that are
business savvy, you know, and ethical, you know, like developers to create a passion project
that's forward thinking to meet a certain demand, right?
And the Meme space traditionally could be, you know, just a fun project, but some could do
more. And that's where, you know, absolutely Floki is in that vein.
But where this is going is that now you have other projects that can transition from the
Web 2 to the Web 3 space.
And there's tons of inventory of corporations and projects that could do that.
And we're going to hear from some of those projects today.
So it's just very, very exciting.
And the Meme space is absolutely exploding.
I don't see that changing in the foreseeable future.
And I think that the major hedge funds and VCs have started to take notice as the majority
of the uptick that we see in investments and in the inflows is actually attributed to the
popularity of Meme projects.
So with Floki, I'm very excited to share our trajectory and how we got here.
But essentially, that's my thesis on the Meme space.
And very excited to be included within it.
Well, I like your forward thinking.
Like, I can see you really thinking a long-term way.
Through the question to the 4.meme then.
So you're actually one of our core contributors of our B&B chain, Meme ecosystem.
Like, how do you manage the increased traffic?
Yeah, this is actually a very in-time question, I think, Gala.
So from 4.meme perspective, yeah.
So I think we also experienced the increase in the traffic and activities the last few days,
along with increase in the transaction volume swarm that you just mentioned at first.
And the traffic here doesn't only mean that the visit to the website,
but it also includes those creators, those meme coin enthusiasts that create,
that issue meme coins and also actively trade about the platform.
And to mention as well is also the social engagement, impression from followers.
And we actually, you know, like, be prepared for that scenarios
because we believe that meme coin seasons and B&B chain is catching up with the momentum.
Yeah, so we, you know, like, with the question like,
how do we see the meme coin's activities on B&B chain?
And how do we manage to increase with the increased traffic?
I think we're being prepared for different perspectives.
So let's say we have been choosing B&B chain in the first day
because of the chain's scalabilities.
And, you know, B&B chain is ranking number one in terms of active users.
So we choose to stay here in the first day and day by day publish our product.
In terms of community-centric campaign,
we also be prepared and hosting different engaging contacts
and promotions that providing interactive contacts for the users
that we work with different kind of corporate wallets with trading tools
and collab with different partners,
including, you know, our dear friends,
why, why the offense for BIC and anti-BIC as well.
So if you are listening around,
you can also hop into our social to see what activities that we are hosting.
We are hosting the 4.min summer points.
It not only rewards the BSC user,
we also want to attract users from different blockchains as well.
So we're also rewarding the Solana users
who are interacting with Pum.funk.
Yeah, so in terms of the investor side,
that is for the retailer side.
And from the, you know, creators and the product side,
aiming to targeting at the meme products
that launches on BSC to participate
and building a positive community
and, of course, on-chain transactions.
We create the contest called 4.min Oskar competition.
We're rewarding them with 1.0 million points
and 20,000 KUS dollars giving out.
And these campaigns are not only boosting traffic,
you know, traffic general,
but also create this sense of belonging
and encouraging users to participate
to both targeting at both investors
and meme enthusiasts and creators as well.
The last part that we be prepared for this role
is the strategic partnerships.
We actually take it slowly but boldly
to join hand with BNB-chained network system
and partnering up to not limit us within that space,
but also join hand with the Web3 social tools,
Web3 wallets, as I mentioned,
to both exchange resources and knowledge.
I must say that our team and our partner words
have been very, very hardworking
and very supportive to us
to anticipating the activities
and even adjusting the campaign timeline as well
to deploy more support resources for us.
And we're super proud to have those partners and the team.
I always enjoy exchanging ideas with them
and, you know, the clever minds out there
to further enhance our ability to onboard more users.
So we also here with a firm heart
to welcome more and more products and users
with similar experience like that.
I like how you have been grinding.
Looking forward to your next step.
Well, Simoncat, your turn.
We have Shifty here, right?
So our rising star today, huh?
And so you launched it very successfully.
to other builders in the ecosystem?
Yeah, I guess it all starts on
with what your goal is in mind, right?
Like from the beginning from Simon's cut,
the goal is how many people
can we put a smile on their face?
And we're just using meme tokens
as a way to do that, right?
Meme tokens, they offer a valuable way
to at least get this emotional connection
between the target audience
and this product or service,
It's more than just buying this token
you know, for the investment purpose,
but it's community engagement, right?
The Web3 space is a place
where we can foster strong online communities
and create a sense of belonging
with a group of individuals
for the same community-centric enthusiasm
of the Simon's cat brand.
Aside from that, you know,
always focus on having low barrier to entry.
Hence the reason why we have chosen
It has a very low barrier to entry.
It's made for mass adoption, really.
And that's really the goal as a whole.
We're contributing to the whole space
by onboarding Web2 to Web3,
one of the biggest IPs, right?
there's 25 million global audience.
There's over 3.5 billion views
on the content Simon cat generates.
to get people out of their seats,
Wow, this is really helpful.
and I hope our other builders
any other thing you want to say
second round of questions.
Okay, very international team.
to build on our BNB chain?
Now, there's multiple reasons.
for mass adoption, right?
Binance is a household name
with the Simon's Cat project
It's just also the quality
that are around BNB Chain,
the reason that we've been able
There's not this toxic culture.
that we want to call home
I'm happy to share about it.
type of deals that we do.
While some projects, some
institutions are required
sometimes 5, 10, 20 times
strength of our brand and
incredible deals and spend
And that's everything that
helped us to exponentially
Okay. All right. Let's have another question. I think we have one more, because it's already been an hour. I don't want to keep everyone too late.
Yeah. So, Wall Street Dijin, you should be able to speak soon. Yeah. Over to you.
Amazing. Hello. Oh, wow. I think I'm your followers.
Hello. How may I call you? Your name is very long. Wall Street Dijin Betts. Is there any shorter version?
Yeah. You can call me WSDB. So, it's like part of the Wall Street Betts team.
Amazing. What is your question? How can we help you today?
A couple of things. So, the first one, like awesome to you guys, to BNB Chira and to 4.meme for kind of bringing the Binance meme season back after 2021.
So, loving it. Love the launches of Binance Cat and Binance Dog. Really good stuff. A lot of volume is coming back. What are your future plans with tokens like those?
Do you want to take it? It feels like it's a question to you for .meme.
Yeah, sure. Thank you for the questions. So, actually, we are Launchpad so that everyone can come to our platform to launch the tokens.
So, you mentioned about Binance Dog and Binance Cat and you're asking about the future roadmap for them, right?
So, actually, they are separated from us and they are created by our users, our community, some BNB chain users out there right now.
Yeah. So, I think that question is something I cannot take behalf of them, but from outside, we'll be trying to enhance our platform to have more incentive.
Like, I mentioned in the AMA earlier, so that we can, again, onboard more products and more users like that to our platform.
Nice. Yeah. So, I basically was asking, like, your roadmap in terms of supporting such projects, not really the roadmaps of those tokens.
Whereas, I believe, like, they are pretty early in trying to build their communities, like Binance Cat and Binance Dog.
But, yeah, the support from the platform and from the chain is going to kind of help them and help other projects to grow.
Yeah, I can build on top of that a bit more on the incentive side of BNB chain.
So, we currently have the LP support for meme projects and also the meme innovation battle.
The meme innovation battle is basically a competition among meme projects.
And they can win, I believe, around $150,000 of incentives and marketing support as well.
And we have another support, which is a liquidity pool support, where we have $900,000 allocated to support the meme ecosystem development.
The criteria for projects is fully public.
So, you can check out on our blog what a meme project needs to, what kind of criteria they need to meet to get this kind of support.
And then they fill out a form and our BD will take the discussion further.
So, and when we do this kind of, when projects receive these supports, the marketing support is also usually given.
So, that's the support from BNB chain side on the meme token ecosystem.
But, yeah, if you have any feedback, feel free to share.
And we are happy to, you know, improve further.
Well, thank you for the great intro.
If not, before wrapping it up today, I really want to say hi to a couple of my friends here.
I'm very happy to see you here.
Late for the game, but welcome.
And I saw, like, Dana, a great Dex here, right?
And I've seen many, many friends.
I know I saw, like, a lot of the meme coin projects that you guys are here, too.
Very happy to see all of you.
And please let me know if there are any other topics you guys do love me to host and AMA on.
We are really, really here for you.
So, again, it's important for me to emphasize that we are just a group of good friends.
Having chicha here, this is absolutely not financial advice.
Please do your own research and be mindful of all the risks you're taking in any token trades.
Well, it has been a wonderful hour talking to everyone.
I think it's a really, really good start.
Remember, we are a weekly AMA every Friday.
And just please come back and tell us what you want us to prepare for.
BSE is really, really back.
