Here’s some more information about these assets:
LOCK IN is a memecoin based on the common saying within the crypto space — to “lock in” is to hold a token with high conviction. The project’s website features a PFP generator, which enables users to upload profile pictures to be overlaid with LOCK IN branding. LOCKIN is a Solana-based token, meaning it can be stored and transferred on the network.
Michi is a memecoin based on an image of a cat, dubbed “the most memeable cat on the Internet.” The project’s website is home to the “Michi Meme Maker,” a tool for creating memes based on the eponymous cat. $MICHI is a Solana-based token with no purported utility, though it can be sent, received and transferred on the network.
