We came into 2025 as a memecoin with an unusual habit: shipping. We leave it with the collection closed, the standard proven, and a launchpad on the pad.

Non-Playable Customs wrapped at 155,443 minted - every one a combination someone actually built in the customizer, frozen as an ERC721 on Base. Minting is closed for good; the collection now lives on secondary.

"The community turned a proof of concept into a product category."

Mediacoins went from whitepaper meme to working reality - BIDEN vs TRUMP, NPC GAME and $GROGE showed an image, a game and a song trading with a ticker. Buy one, the NFT mints to your wallet; sell, and it burns.

2026 is about handing everyone the same tools: Launchly (coming soon) takes the MFT standard behind $NPC and turns it into a launchpad anyone can use. No code, about a minute, your meme with a ticker.
