If ongoing, briefly describe your past contributions to the Metis ecosystem, including any CVP approval, supplemental support received, and specific results achieved.", "questionId": 8}, {"type": "paragraph", "answer": "Here's why our project deserves your attention:\n\nHype Overload: Memecoins are not just another crypto trend; they're cultural phenomena. When they skyrocket, they capture the imagination of the entire crypto community. For example, memecoins on SOL saw a 178% increase in user engagement in Q2 2024, turning casual observers into dedicated enthusiasts overnight.\n\nUnprecedented Liquidity: Memecoins act as powerful liquidity drivers for networks. They don’t just attract funds—they attract enthusiastic, engaged users. On BASE, memecoin trading volumes surged by 233%, injecting significant liquidity and energy into the ecosystem.\n\nOrganic Growth: Memecoins aren’t just about the coins themselves—they create vibrant, engaged communities. Platforms with active memecoin projects saw a 400% increase in new user sign-ups. The community and shared excitement around these tokens drive substantial growth.\n\nBoosting the METIS Network: Integrating memecoins with METIS isn't just adding a feature; it’s creating a movement. Historical data shows that memecoins can increase network value significantly, sometimes up to 1200%, depending on market sentiment and engagement.\n\nFear of Missing Out (FOMO): Memecoins generate substantial FOMO, driving rapid spikes in trading activity. When a memecoin gains momentum, it can lead to up to a 500% increase in trading volume within hours, drawing in both seasoned traders and new users alike.\n\nExceptional Engagement: Memecoins transform users into active participants in a thriving community. They foster engagement that goes beyond just holding coins, leading to a 300% increase in community interactions such as posts and shares.\n\nMeaningful Theme: Our project, AthenaButerin, is not just another memecoin—it's a tribute to the foundational figures of METIS. METIS, the \"mother\" of ATHENA, and Vitalik Buterin’s mother, Natalia Ameline, who played a pivotal role in METIS's creation, provide a profound narrative. This connection adds a layer of meaningful hype, linking our memecoin to the legacy and growth of the METIS ecosystem.\n\nBy supporting this memecoin project, you're not just funding a token; you're investing in a dynamic, high-energy initiative poised to make a significant impact on the METIS network and beyond.
