unblockedKeep the Rewards Flowing: How External LPs Affect Your Clanker Rewards
You’ve just clanked a banger… the rewards start rolling in… but as the days pass… you calculate what should be your 1% fee, and it turns out to be 0.9%, or even less…

ICOs were a revelation in decentralized crowdfunding, but the 2017 ICO boom and bust tarnished their name forever. NFTs were groundbreaking for digital art and collectibles, but the fallout from the 2021 mania caused the public to reflexively associate any mention of ‘NFT’ with ‘scam’.

Digital assets have matured beyond their crypto-native origins

It’s always darkest before it turns pitch black.
The /gloom channel on Warpcast is all about feeling down, complaining, and (as you’d assume) unfiltered gloom.
It is intentionally left unmoderated to facilitate the gloomiest vibe possible, and provides followers with a unique scene unlike any other channel on Warpcast.
Eternal gloom is the priority, so (initially) no associated Scenecoin was launched by the channel creators or the community.
However, an unlikely cast from Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterinin the channel led to a chain of events that spawned one of the most successful Scenecoins to date – $GLOOM.

$GLOOM was launched by @bixbite in February 2024.
In a late night/early morning experiment, she decided to launch the token mentioned in Vitalik’s cast for real.
This is a complete late night / early morning experiment .... $GLOOM on Base - 1B Supply 1% Reflection Tax that's automatically distributed between all holders .... I put in 90% of supply to LP & am airdropping the rest of the supply to DEGEN holders NFA DYOR 🤓 Contract: 0x4Ff77748E723f0d7B161f90B4bc505187226ED0D
The key factor that made $GLOOM stand out from other memecoins on Base at the time was the fact it was a “reflection token.”
Whenever a $GLOOM transaction took place, 1% of the transaction value was charged as a tax and redistributed amongst all $GLOOM holders.
This mechanism helped $GLOOM gain traction early on, and quickly propelled it from an experimental token to an established player on the Farcaster memecoin stage.
$GLOOM started out as an experiment meme coin inspired by Vitalik post in the Gloom channel, but we’re building out an ecosystem of Gloom including pfp project called The Gloomers & also a Farcaster client. There’s a 1B supply with a 1% reflection tax automatically distributed to remaining holders, similar to Shib
$GLOOM, and its separate, dedicated /gloomtoken channel has since expanded to over 4k members.
The token migrated from its reflection token origins to a more standard ERC20 token to expand its functionality and accessibility.
And @bixbite (with the help of the community) launched Gloomers, the exclusive $GLOOM ecosystem NFT collection, across the Base, Solana, and Optimism networks.
If it were easy everyone would do it....

The scene of the $GLOOM token is a strange combination of the /gloom channels perverse negativity, combined with the vibrant enthusiasm of /gloomtoken.
Ultimately, there needs to be some positivity and excitement for a token to succeed as $GLOOM has.
And this balance is where $GLOOM finds its scene — a community of dread-filled people creating the gloomiest creations possible, while having fun doing it.
The recent Gloom on-chain affiliates campaign also seems to have taken over the /gloomtoken feed (which actually perpetuates the gloom).
@bixbite and crew is cooking!! get it on gloomers now if you haven’t already https://onchainaffiliates.com
Ironically, the future of the ecosystem dedicated to existential gloominess does indeed look bright.
The first “Gloomiverse” product (the gloomy “Onchain Affiliates” program) launched on June 1st.
Users who share the Gloomers affiliate frame earn 10% of the ETH used to mint a Gloomer NFT through that frame.
I've had a blast in TX - beautiful views, amazing food, awesome people... but so excited to get back to NY & continue cooking for GLOOM! 👽 💙 Onchain Affiliates can & will be a game changer for projects / creators looking to boost their exposure && gives affiliates the ability to share in the success of projects!
Beyond the affiliate program, the Gloomiverse is set to continue to spread its gloomy ways.
New gloomy products from @bixbite seem to be dropping every other week, and the $GLOOM community persists in turning Vitalik’s self-defeating prophecy into one of the most fulfilling scenes on Base.
