what's Patriot Token?

Patriot Token ($PATRIOT) is an ERC-20 token deployed on the Ethereum blockchain, created by a global crypto community to celebrate American patriotism, particularly inspired by President Donald J. Trump's defiance during the July 13, 2024, assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. The project uses token proceeds to fund the creation and installation of a 22-foot bronze statue of Trump, sculpted by artist Alan Cottrill, at Trump National Doral Miami golf resort. It builds a community around shared values of freedom and resilience, issuing $PATRIOT Awards to supporters of the MAGA movement. The token operates on decentralized exchanges like Uniswap, enabling seamless trading and liquidity provision within the Ethereum ecosystem. Beyond speculation, it demonstrates real-world utility through cultural commemoration via the physical monument and recognition programs, fostering long-term holder engagement without reliance on centralized platforms.
