Stay Based.

BASED is a memecoin run completely in the open. I travel the country handing real tokens to people who've never owned crypto — 7% of the supply set aside for it, 10M already placed by hand — and I'm building an AI to trade that funds it. Every buyback and giveaway is on-chain. No team allocation, no private rounds.

Honest take: the strat's profitable — the model barely beats the base rate. I'm running it in public anyway. see it →

Origin

The bank fired the man. The man built the exit.

Most meme coins are built by anonymous teams who dump on holders. BASED started under different conditions. The trade-off is honesty about what happened — including what hasn't worked yet.

Act I

The bank found the token.

Minted “Fuck The Bank” on BNB Chain — half protest, half lesson in what fractional reserve actually means. It went viral. Bank of America put it together, and I was terminated within days.

Act II

Livestream. Travel. Onboard.

Refused another desk job. Took the camera live and drove across 46 states — sitting down with bartenders, baristas, and folks at shelters, opening their first Phantom wallet and putting real BASED in it. The goal was simple: prove no exit by being permanently visible.

Act III

Rebuilding on Solana.

BASED launched on Solana April 22, 2024. Reached ~$1.5M market cap, dropped to $7.6K. Now in the rebuild phase: 11 buybacks, 25.1M tokens reclaimed, every transaction on-chain.

The mission

Crypto, handed to people who've never held it.

BASED isn't built for insiders to dump. I drive the country, livestream the whole thing, and sit down with everyday people — bartenders, baristas, folks at shelters — to open their first wallet and put real tokens in it. 7% of the entire supply is reserved for them.

Every stop is on camera and every wallet is on-chain. You can watch a stranger send their first-ever transaction live, then verify it on Solscan minutes later. No promises to take on faith — a ledger you can read.

The giveaway isn't a marketing airdrop to farmers and bots. It's tokens placed by hand into the wallets of people who'd never owned crypto before — the opposite of a team dumping on retail.

New to crypto? Start here

Your first BASED, in 60 seconds.

Never bought a token before? Same as the people I onboard in person — here's the whole thing, start to finish.

STEP 01

Get a wallet

Install Phantom — a free Solana wallet — as a browser extension or phone app. Save your recovery phrase somewhere safe and never share it.

phantom.app ↗
STEP 02

Add a little SOL

Buy a few dollars of SOL right inside Phantom (debit card or transfer). That covers the tiny network fee and is what you'll swap.

STEP 03

Swap for BASED

Open Jupiter, paste the contract, and swap SOL → BASED. Use a small amount — liquidity is still thin, so big buys move the price.

The engine

An AI built to fund all of it.

Giveaways and buybacks have to be funded by something real — so the other half of the project is an AI I'm training on my own options trades. Right now it's early and honest: a small model, learning in the open. No hype — you can watch it grow, warts and all, on the live dashboard below.

The low end of the 95% interval currently dips below coin-flip — small samples do that, and it stays on the dashboard rather than getting cropped out. At the default threshold the model has never once called a trade a loss. That's the deal here: the number is what it is.

What the AI can't do yet — the honest list
  • At the default threshold it calls every trade a win — it has never once flagged a loss. The accuracy number rides the 89% base rate, not skill.
  • Trained on one trader's options style — no guarantee it generalizes to other strategies.
  • Only 65 real losing trades to learn from so far — confidence is wide on rare events.
  • Not running live money. Paper and shadow only, by design.
  • No real-time options pricing yet — it reasons on end-of-day data.

It's a research tool, not a money printer — and I'd rather say that plainly than oversell it. But every month of data makes it sharper, and the goal is simple: a transparent, provable edge that funds the giveaways and buybacks instead of dumping on holders.
