what's degen?

Degen is a community-driven meme coin and social layer on the Base blockchain, originating from the Farcaster tipping culture and evolving into a vibrant ecosystem for degens to share, tip, and collaborate. Its core value proposition lies in fostering chaotic, fun, and experimental crypto interactions, blending meme culture with practical utilities like tipping and community rewards without rigid roadmaps. Key technical features include the Degen L3 chain built on Optimism's OP Stack for scalable, low-cost transactions, seamless bridging via LayerZero and Stargate, and integrations with wallets like Rainbow for easy access. It targets high-risk, high-reward meme trading and social engagement within the Base ecosystem, positioning itself as the top meme token on Base with a focus on community governance and builder tools. Notable partnerships include Alchemy for chain infrastructure, Koinly for tax reporting, and CoinMarketCap for visibility boosts, enhancing its role as a foundational asset in Base's degen subculture.
