Monerochan Token: A Trojan Horse for Promoting Monero

Hello Monerochads,

We understand that the Monero community values privacy and utility over hype and speculation. But the reality is, the meme cycle is here. Every bull run brings a wave of speculative mania, and projects fueled by absurd ideas and flashy memes dominate attention. Instead of ignoring this, weā€™re proposing a way to use it to our advantage: Monerochan Token ($MONEROCHAN).

This project isnā€™t just another cash grab or speculative distraction. Itā€™s a Trojan Horse, designed to bring more attention to Monero, onboard new users, and provide funding for tools that benefit the community.

Whoā€™s Behind This?

Weā€™re the Based Money Collective, a team of long-time Monero community members who have built various projectsā€”both for profit and not-for-profitā€”within the crypto space. To confirm our authenticity, weā€™ve reached out to the moderators at monero.town with our Monero nyms.

This project isnā€™t about us; itā€™s about the Monero community and using its creativity, memes, and culture to attract new users to Monero.

Why Monerochan Token?

  1. Reaching New Audiences

    • Letā€™s face it: the average crypto speculator isnā€™t going out of their way to buy Monero because they donā€™t understand its value or importance. Privacy needs a hook, and $MONEROCHAN is that hook. This token reaches people who otherwise wouldnā€™t care about Monero or even know it exists.

  2. Leveraging Speculative Mania

    • Speculation drives interest, and rising prices bring attention. This project uses clown-world speculation to draw eyes to Monero, growing awareness through the meme cycle.

  3. Building Tools for Monero

    • The attention generated by $MONEROCHAN will help us build critical tools for Moneroā€™s ecosystem integrating with web3.
      • XMR Swap Service: A vending machine-like service where users can send XMR and receive $MONEROCHAN (or other tokens) in return.
      • XMRā€“ERC20 Atomic Swaps: Weā€™re researching the existing atomic swap code base to create a deployable front end, allowing seamless swaps between XMR and ERC-20 tokens.
  • Privacy friendly eth wallet: In a world dominated by mobile wallets we want to provide some of our personal tools for interacting with web3 in an opsec safe manner.
  1. Community Growth
    • The more that Monerochan Token gains traction, the more it brings new users into Moneroā€™s ecosystem. Many people are drawn to Monero through curiosity sparked by memes and culture, and this token amplifies that effect.

Whatā€™s in It for Monero?

Monero works as advertised, and its adoption in real-world markets is something to be proud of. But the lack of price appreciation has drawbacks. Hereā€™s how more attention benefits the community:

  1. Boosting Hashrate

    • A higher price makes mining Monero more attractive, increasing the networkā€™s hashrate and security.

  2. Code Contributions

    • More eyes on Moneroā€™s code base mean more opportunities for innovation and improvements.

  3. Funding Research & Development

    • Increased attention and community involvement can fund crucial advancements in Moneroā€™s technology.

  4. Real-World Utility

    • A higher price means more people holding and using Monero, which boosts its adoption in markets and enhances its utility as digital cash.

Tokenomics & Distribution

  • Max Supply: 1,337,000,000 $MONEROCHAN
  • Fair Launch: 100% fair distribution, with liquidity locked forever to ensure no rugs.
  • Current Market Cap: Under $1 million

Weā€™ve reserved a bag of tokens for the Monero community. Post your Ethereum address, and weā€™ll send you $MONEROCHAN for freeā€”no strings attached, no money required. All we ask is that you donā€™t cash it out as a quick grabā€”hold it, support the project, and help us grow Moneroā€™s visibility.

Roadmap

Phase 1: Soft Launch

  • Distribute airdrops to the Monero community and targeted groups, including 4chanā€™s Monero General thread, to build early interest.

Phase 2: Initial Release

  • Burn a significant portion of whale-held tokens to create scarcity and build confidence in the tokenomics. The team burned 25% of the supply yesterday.
  • List $MONEROCHAN on all major decentralized exchange (DEX) aggregators, kicking off a marketing push to reach a broader audience.

Phase 3: Monerochan NFT Drop (April 2025)

  • Launch the first Monerochan NFT collection, requiring $MONEROCHAN tokens for purchase.

Phase 4: Continued Development

  • Develop a ā€œvending machineā€ service, enabling users to exchange XMR for $MONEROCHAN seamlessly.
  • Research and implement MONEROCHANā€“XMR atomic swaps, laying the groundwork for smooth ERC20 atomic swaps.
  • Release a second Monerochan NFT set, expanding the utility and engagement for $MONEROCHAN holders.

How to Get Involved

1. Claim Free Tokens ā€“ No Strings Attached

Post your Ethereum address, and weā€™ll send you $MONEROCHAN tokens for free. No strings attached, no investment required. This is our way of ensuring the Monero community gets ground-floor access to this project.

However, we ask that you donā€™t just sell it for a quick cash grab. The only way this project succeeds in bringing more attention to Monero is by increasing its market cap. The more $MONEROCHAN is held by strong hands within the community, the less selling pressure there is, which makes it easier for the market cap to grow.

A Community-Centric Mission

We know this project wonā€™t appeal to everyone in the Monero community, and thatā€™s okay. But for those who see the potential in using speculative mania to drive real-world adoption, Monerochan Token is a tool to amplify Moneroā€™s message.

This is a side quest with real benefits: more users, more tools, and more visibility for Monero. Letā€™s use clown-world speculation to strengthen what truly matters: privacy, decentralization, and digital cash that works.
