PlayMini, the platform behind tokenized social games, just dropped an exciting update via a thread on X. They're introducing SuperPool* and the $FOUNDER token, designed to supercharge their new game, Founder Mode®. This collaboration with @ClankerOnBase aims to create a fresh flywheel for social games, blending fun gameplay with crypto rewards.
What is Founder Mode?
First off, let's talk about the game itself. Founder Mode® is a gameshow-style experience where players step into the shoes of a startup founder for a week. You make predictions, compete, and the top performers scoop up the pot along with some serious bragging rights. It's a social prediction game that's live on PlayMini, and it captures the chaotic energy of entrepreneurship in a fun, tokenized format.
The promotional video shows players in intense Zoom calls, hustling on phone calls, and even dramatic fundraising scenes – think "Day 99 of Fundraising" with someone contemplating the edge. It's hilarious and spot-on for anyone who's followed startup lore.
Introducing SuperPool and $FOUNDER
SuperPool is the new feature that amps up the prizepool, powered by the $FOUNDER token. According to the thread, $FOUNDER is a game coin specifically crafted to fuel prizepools and community rewards. The team at PlayMini has been cooking this up with Clanker, and it's all about creating a sustainable flywheel.
Here's the breakdown: They reinvest a portion of earnings from player buy-ins (in USDC) and trading fees back into the prizepool and future $FOUNDER buybacks. This creates a loop where the game grows, rewards increase, and the token gains value over time.
Tokenomics at a Glance
$FOUNDER launches with a thoughtful allocation:
- 10% for dev buy
- 10% airdrop for rewards
- 25% vaulted for future events
This structure aims to ensure longevity and fairness, reducing the risk of rugs and focusing on community growth. The contract address (CA) is 0x4f0f4beedaefab4b988f1d2e232d715aba335b07, likely on the Base chain given the Clanker connection.

Community Buzz
The announcement has already sparked reactions on X. Users are hyped, with comments like "full on founder mode" and "Looking for an entry to ape here." It seems like the fair structure is resonating, assuring players that the focus is on building rather than quick exits.
If you're into meme coins with real utility in gaming, $FOUNDER could be one to watch. As blockchain games evolve, innovations like SuperPool show how tokens can enhance social experiences and reward participation.
Stay tuned for the official launch on September 25th – who knows, you might just become the next big founder in the game!
