Before we dive in, a quick but important clarification: this article covers Internet Token (INT) on the Base chain at contract address 0x968d6a288d7b024d5012c0b25d67a889e4e3ec19. Do not confuse it with similarly named “INT” projects on other networks (for example, IoT-focused INT Chain). Always verify the contract address.
What INT is (and why it’s different)
Internet Token (INT) is an ERC‑20 token on Base, Coinbase’s Ethereum Layer 2. Unlike many meme tokens that rely purely on vibes, INT powers a fully on‑chain, autonomous lottery called the INT Lottery. This gives the token a clear, ongoing utility: holding and interacting with INT can generate lottery entries and access to weekly rewards.

How the INT Lottery works
The lottery is designed to be transparent and fully on‑chain on Base. Participation revolves around Ticket NFTs and weekly prize draws.
- Ticket generation
- When users trade INT, every $5 in trading fees attributed to their activity mints 1 Ticket NFT for the weekly draw.
- There’s also an official “ticket automator” on the website that lets you generate tickets directly (without needing to hold INT in your wallet).
- Prize structure (weekly)
- Main Prize: 50% of all WETH ticket fees fund the primary pot.
- Progressive Jackpot: 30% of WETH ticket fees grow a jackpot that can carry over. Each main prize winner has a 10% chance to win the jackpot too.
- Lucky IFTs: Ten “Lucky IFT” NFTs are awarded weekly as secondary prizes. Each Lucky IFT can be redeemed for 100,000 INT and entitles the holder to a share of weekly revenue.
In short: trade or use the automator to mint tickets, and you’re in for weekly prize opportunities. The progressive jackpot adds a lottery‑style “rollover” dynamic that can become a major draw during quieter weeks.
Token utility and governance
INT isn’t just for tickets:
- Core utility: It’s the native token that underpins the lottery’s mechanics and incentives.
- Governance: INT holders can vote on protocol decisions, parameters, and roadmap priorities.
- Revenue share via Lucky IFTs: Secondary prize winners get revenue exposure alongside their redeemable INT.
- Referrals: A built‑in referral program rewards community growth.
Key on‑chain and contract details
- Standard: ERC‑20 on Base
- Contract name: RewardToken
- Verified code: Yes (see BaseScan)
- Compiler: Solidity v0.8.24 (optimization enabled, 200 runs)

- Circulating supply: ~375–380 million INT (approx., subject to change)
- Holders: ~8,700+ addresses (approx., subject to change)
Note: Decimals are typically 18 for ERC‑20s on Base, but always confirm on the contract page.
Market snapshot (highly dynamic)
Recent community‑tracked data suggests:
- Price: around $0.0039
- Market cap: roughly $1.45M
- FDV: roughly $3.9M
- 24h volume: ranges in the mid‑thousands to tens of thousands USD depending on the day and venue
These figures move quickly. Cross‑check live data on BaseScan, CoinGecko, or the project’s X account.
Where to research and trade INT
If you’re exploring or trading INT, start with reputable tools and on‑chain sources:
- Research and trading dashboards:
- GMGN.AI: https://gmgn.ai/base/token/fV1R5sZ5_0x968d6a288d7b024d5012c0b25d67a889e4e3ec19
- Uniswap V3 (Base): trade the INT/WETH pair via the Uniswap interface on Base (verify you’re using the correct token address)
- BaseScan token page: on‑chain contract, holders, transfers, and analytics
Tip: Always paste the exact contract address (0x968d6a288d7b024d5012c0b25d67a889e4e3ec19) when adding tokens or trading to avoid ticker look‑alikes.
Why Base is a fit for an on‑chain lottery
- Low fees: Base’s L2 design means minting Ticket NFTs and executing weekly prize logic is affordable for users.
- Ethereum security: As an L2, Base inherits Ethereum’s security model.
- Growing meme culture: Base has rapidly become a hotspot for meme coins and community experiments, which supports attention and liquidity for utility‑driven meme‑adjacent projects like INT.
Simple walkthrough: from zero to your first Ticket NFT
- Visit internettoken.io to learn the mechanics and find the ticket automator.
- If trading to generate tickets, connect a Base‑enabled wallet and trade INT (or use the automator for direct ticket generation).
- Track your Ticket NFTs and weekly draw timing on the site or community channels.
- Check results weekly; if you win a Lucky IFT, follow the redemption and revenue share instructions.
Security notes and due diligence
- Contract checks: Third‑party scanners have flagged a couple of issues (e.g., “Go+ Security: 2 issues,” Token Sniffer ~70/100). Automated scans can be noisy or incomplete, but they’re useful starting points.
- No substitute for audits: Treat the absence of a formal, recent audit as a risk. Read the verified code on BaseScan and ask questions in the community.
- Decentralization in practice: The lottery is billed as autonomous and decentralized; keep an eye on upgrade permissions, admin keys, and governance distribution over time.
Common confusion: not that “INT”
There are multiple “INT” tickers in crypto. The Base INT covered here is “Internet Token” powering an on‑chain lottery. It is not the IoT/BoT‑focused INT Chain project you may find on other trackers. Always rely on the Base contract address for identification.
Risks to keep on your radar
- Market volatility: Liquidity and volume can be thin for small‑cap tokens, amplifying price swings.
- Competition for attention: Base hosts many meme and utility tokens; demand can rotate quickly.
- Regulatory uncertainty: Lottery‑style mechanics may attract extra scrutiny in some jurisdictions.
- Execution risk: Prize mechanics, revenue sharing, and governance need consistent delivery to retain user trust.
Bottom line
Internet Token (INT) blends meme‑native community energy with a clear on‑chain utility: a weekly lottery powered by Ticket NFTs, a progressive jackpot, and revenue‑sharing Lucky IFTs. Its home on Base keeps interactions fast and cheap, and governance gives holders a say in what comes next. As always, verify the contract, monitor security signals, and size positions conservatively in line with the project’s small‑cap profile.
