TL;DR

• CHRCH is an ERC‑20 token on Base at 0x0c351bae4425fbfc94e8da6f53ff3e178e171c60.
• Public documentation and listings are limited; treat it as a speculative meme token until proven otherwise.
• Always verify the contract on Basescan before trading.
• If you explore trading, check platforms like GMGN, Uniswap (Base), and Aerodrome, and confirm you are using the exact address.

What is CHRCH?

CHRCH is identified on-chain as an ERC‑20 token deployed to the Base network, an Ethereum Layer‑2 built on the Optimism OP Stack and incubated by Coinbase’s Base. ERC‑20 is the most common token standard on EVM chains, which means CHRCH can be held in EVM wallets and potentially interact with DEXs and dApps that support Base.

• Contract: 0x0c351bae4425fbfc94e8da6f53ff3e178e171c60
• Standard: ERC‑20
• Chain: Base (uses ETH for gas; Base has no native token)

On‑chain snapshot (what you should verify)

Since public listings are sparse, your best source is on-chain data. On Basescan, review:

• Token details: name, symbol (CHRCH), decimals (often 18, but confirm on the contract page).
• Total supply and circulating distribution.
• Holder count and top holder concentration.
• Transfer history and activity trends.
• Contract status: verified source code, ownership (is it renounced?), and any special functions (e.g., trading fees, blacklists).

Tip: Click “Contract” on Basescan, then “Read/Write Contract” to inspect functions and parameters. High taxes, blacklist functions, or minting capabilities can add risk.

Market visibility and status

• No verified listings were found on major trackers like CoinGecko or CoinMarketCap at the time of writing.
• Pricing, liquidity, and volume may be limited or volatile, which is common for early or meme‑style tokens on Base.
• Lack of an official site or social links tied directly to this contract means you should treat third‑party claims with caution.

Thematic context (faith‑themed tokens on Base)

Research surfaced a separate, faith‑themed token on Base called “Christ Is King” ($CIK), with content such as a YouTube tutorial and an official site at christisking.io. While the naming suggests a similar theme, there is no confirmed link between CHRCH and CIK. Do not assume affiliation unless the CHRCH contract itself publishes official references.

Where to track and trade

If you choose to explore markets, always paste the exact contract address to avoid look‑alikes:

• GMGN: purpose‑built for meme token discovery and trading on Base, with real‑time analytics and safety checks. CHRCH page: gmgn.ai/base/token/fV1R5sZ5_0x0c351bae4425fbfc94e8da6f53ff3e178e171c60
• Uniswap (Base): app.uniswap.org/swap?chain=base
• Aerodrome (Base): aerodrome.finance/swap

Note: Availability/liquidity can change quickly. If a pool does not exist or has very low TVL, your trades may fail or suffer severe price impact. Always simulate small swaps first and check slippage.

Risk assessment

• Volatility: Meme tokens can swing rapidly on sentiment alone.
• Liquidity: Shallow pools make entries/exits difficult and costly.
• Counterparty risk: Unverified teams, upgradeable contracts, or privileged functions can introduce non‑market risks.
• Rug/soft‑rug scenarios: Removable liquidity, high taxes, or trading pauses can trap funds.
• Impersonation: Similar tickers and themed branding can mislead. Always match the contract address.

None of this is financial advice—only a research summary. DYOR and never risk more than you can afford to lose.

How to verify before you trade

1. Confirm the address on Basescan; bookmark it.
2. Check contract verification and ownership; look for renunciation or multi‑sig control.
3. Inspect tokenomics: total supply, top holders, recent mints/burns, and any tax/fee logic.
4. Review liquidity: pool size (TVL), lock status, and LP ownership. If LP is unlocked or owned by the deployer, risk is higher.
5. Evaluate market depth: look at swap depth and slippage tolerance. Test a tiny trade first.
6. Scan with tools that flag honeypots or excessive taxes. Platforms like GMGN can surface risk indicators quickly.
7. Seek official channels: If the project publishes a site or socials tied to this exact address, verify cross‑links (website → Basescan → socials and back).

For builders and integrators

• Base is EVM‑compatible, so standard Ethereum tooling (Hardhat, Foundry, OpenZeppelin libraries) applies.
• Treat CHRCH as a generic ERC‑20 unless you confirm custom methods. When integrating, read the ABI from the verified contract on Basescan and handle non‑standard behaviors (e.g., transfer fees) defensively.
• Gas is paid in ETH on Base; be mindful of L2/L1 data costs and batching strategies.
