Moonbase ($MOONBASE) is not just another memecoin.
It is a historical onchain artifact, deployed on July 13, 2023, only minutes after Base Mainnet officially opened for builders.

For more than two years, Moonbase lay dormant — untouched, unshilled, and almost entirely forgotten.
In late 2025, the community rediscovered it, analyzed its onchain footprint, and confirmed what no one had truly noticed:

👉 Moonbase is the first memecoin ever deployed on Base — and one of the only tokens from launch day still alive today.

Base is rapidly becoming the cultural center of onchain activity.
Every network has its “origin story”:

• Bitcoin has its Genesis block

• Ethereum has the DAO fork

• Solana has its early validators

• And Base now has Moonbase — a memecoin born the same day Base Mainnet went live

Memecoins are cultural artifacts. They aren’t created for utility — they are created for identity, for symbolism, for collective memory. Moonbase embodies that perfectly.

1. First memecoin deployed on Base

2. Ultra-limited meme-perfect supply: 69,420
No mint, no vesting, no hidden mechanics.

3. Survived 860+ days untouched
While dozens of early tokens died or were abandoned, Moonbase quietly remained active.

4. A symbol of Base culture
A memecoin deployed at the exact moment Base was born — a digital fossil from Block Zero’s era.

5. The original developer is back

After the rediscovery, the creator returned and began building a true ecosystem around Moonbase:

• Moonbase Captains NFT collection (free claim for holders)

• Lunarium farm system (v0)

• A narrative-driven prequel game (Q1 2026)

Moonbase is evolving from a forgotten meme into a cornerstone of Base culture.

Onchain tells no lies.
Anyone can verify it. Anyone can audit the timeline.
Here are the facts:

• Base Mainnet : Opened July 13, 2023

• Moonbase deploys : Minutes later

• Supply : 69,420

• Contract :

Moonbase is not “another token”.
It is the memecoin that emerged at Base’s birth — and stayed alive long enough to be rediscovered.

Because narratives matter.
Because history matters.
Because Base is building culture, not just infrastructure.

And Moonbase is the first cultural artifact ever minted on Base.

Moonbase is a reminder of why we build onchain:
Not only to create tools, but to create stories, symbols, and shared memory.

If you believe in Base, if you love its culture, if you care about its history —
then Moonbase is part of what brought us here.

Moonbase : The first memecoin on Base.
Still alive. Still building. Still part of the story.
