Meme Insider
Hey, web3 warriors and meme token hunters – if you're not tuning into the Evans & Collins: Into the Trenches podcast, you're missing out on some serious alpha drops. This isn't your average chit-chat; it's a raw dive into the trenches of blockchain innovation, where hosts Evans (the anonymous mastermind behind Virtuals Protocol) and Collins unpack the tech that's actually moving the needle in crypto.
Episode 13 just hit the announcement wire, and it's packing heat. We're talking the launch of Backroom's very first ICM (that's Initial Coinage Module, a slick onchain capital formation tool for curated projects) project on the Base network. Powered by Aerodrome Finance, Backroom is positioning itself as the go-to incubator launchpad for hand-picked gems in the ecosystem. If you're knee-deep in meme tokens or just scouting for the next big protocol play, this is your invite to farm some exclusive insights.
Who's Joining the Trenches This Time?
The lineup is fire, blending fresh faces with proven builders:
@useBackroom: The crew behind the ICM incubator. Expect deep dives into how they're streamlining onchain funding for projects that align with Base's low-cost, high-speed vibe. As the first launchpad of its kind here, they're dropping alpha on what makes a project "curated" – think vetted teams, meme-worthy narratives, and real utility.
@fan360games: Led by the legendary Lennart (a total Chad in the space, as one community member put it), this squad is all about fan-owned gaming experiences. Imagine meme tokens fueling community-driven esports or virtual arenas where your $FAN stake calls the shots. Their integration with Virtuals could be a game-changer for tokenized gaming assets.
@dealernodeapp: Fresh off integrating with ACP (that's Autonomous Compute Protocol for the uninitiated – a decentralized edge for running AI and compute tasks onchain), DealerNode is bringing dealer-style trading tools to the meme meta. Think automated market-making for your favorite dog coins, but with Virtuals' AI twist for smarter liquidity.
Hosted by Evans Web3 (@evansWeb3Dev), the unofficial curator for Virtuals, and Collins, this episode promises unfiltered takes on how these tools are supercharging the Base ecosystem. Virtuals Protocol, for the newcomers, is revolutionizing AI agents on blockchain – turning memes into autonomous entities that trade, evolve, and even launch their own tokens. It's the kind of tech that turns viral hype into sustainable value.
Why This Episode is Meme Token Gold
In a sea of rug pulls and pump-and-dumps, shows like Into the Trenches cut through the noise. Backroom's ICM launch isn't just another token drop; it's a blueprint for onchain capital formation that could onboard the next wave of meme projects to Base. We're seeing hints of crossovers with Virtuals' AI-driven agents, potentially creating self-sustaining meme economies where tokens aren't just speculative – they're alive.
Community buzz is already heating up. Fans are hyped for Lennart's vision at Fan360, and DealerNode's ACP tie-in has degens whispering about yield-farming opportunities that blend memes with DeFi.
