Here’s some more information about the tokens:
Fartcoin (FARTCOIN) is a Solana-based memecoin, originally conceived by AI bot Truth Terminal and launched by an anonymous developer. Fartcoin has been praised as the ‘ideal meme,’ with its supply well-distributed and no single entity holding a large portion of its tokens. The FARTCOIN token serves no purpose, operating strictly as a memecoin.
yearn.finance (YFI) is a decentralized yield aggregator running on the Ethereum blockchain. Cryptocurrency deposited on Yearn.Finance is automatically lended out at the highest lending rate possible across a number of other platforms. YFI is the token for Yearn Finance. Holders of YFI can participate in the protocol’s governance and earn a percentage of the fees generated on the various Yearn Finance products through staking.
JasmyCoin (JASMY) develops internet of things (IoT) platforms via edge computing and the use of the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) for data storage. Jasmy seeks to decentralize the maintenance and sharing of sensitive information through the use of “personal data lockers” on the Jasmy network. JasmyCoin is used as a payment medium for retrieving personal data from IoT devices and serves as the network’s utility token.
Pudgy Penguins (PENGU) is the Solana-based token of leading NFT project Pudgy Penguins. Launched in December 2024, a quarter of the supply was airdropped to Pudgy holders, and an additional quarter to various Web3 community members in the hopes of growing the Pudgy community. It’s expected that PENGU will serve as a governance and utility token, allowing holders to weigh in on protocol decisions and unlock gated features.
