Unlock Protocol has added support for $DEGEN for creators, event organizers, and others building on Unlock Protocol.
Projects launching subscriptions, memberships, events, and other initiatives using Unlock Protocol can now accept purchases and payments using $DEGEN. If you are setting up a paid subscription, membership or event and want to price it in $DEGEN, you can now do so.
As we are seeing community-driven tokens gain broader acceptance and utility, we are seeing increased growth, liquidity, and contributions to a more inclusive (and interesting) digital economy.
Tokens like $DEGEN are reshaping the interaction between communities and economies, accelerating a decentralized and participatory onchain environment. (Here are some great thoughts on this from Jarrod Dicker, TPan and, of course, the /degen channel on Warpcast.)
If a creator or event organizer wants to price their offering natively in $DEGEN, you now have the ability to set up $DEGEN as the method of payment.
When setting up a smart contract with Unlock Protocol, deploy that smart contract on Base and use the $DEGEN ERC-20 as your pricing using the $DEGEN token (0x4ed4e862860bed51a9570b96d89af5e1b0efefed). It will now show its price in $DEGEN.
Here’s what it looks like in practice. It takes about a minute to set up.
Once the smart contract has been updated, we can take a look at how it’s presented for subscribers or attendees who are making a purchase.
Head over to https://app.unlock-protocol.com/event/eth-galactic-2025-based for a live example.
The landing page shows $DEGEN as the method of payment, and the checkout flow for this event now shows $DEGEN as the way to pay for the ticket to this event.
Note: Pricing in $DEGEN is not limited to event tickets. Any type of onchain subscription, automatically recurring subscription, or membership can be priced in $DEGEN using Unlock Protocol.
You can get started at https://unlock-protocol.com.
Enjoy!
Still a work in progress but any feedback on this so far? What am I missing?
looks good but a typo on Neynar in the tools column maybe Yup for a client? hypersub and fabric might be good to fit in?
@proxystudio.eth does $PROXY token have + proxyswap have a logo for this? media missing /fbi @saxenasaheb
@akhil-bvs has all our brand assets, but I have this! I asked @mariku to deploy $PROXY with the logo but not sure if that happened
Done. DMed @adrienne 🙌🏻 https://warpcast.com/akhil-bvs/0x4c3bdd29
- Degen Jeeves from @matthewfox - Bracket Games from @tldrr - Bountycaster from @linda
Ah yes would love Bountycaster on there :)
How did I miss it the first time? 🤦🏻♀️ i suck I now want to create a bounty for someone with design skills to turn all this data into an infographic. I haven’t posted one in a while- better to post to /design or /bounties ? And how are people determining appropriate amount?
@adrienne, you should check out : /proxyswap - a concentrated liquidity DEX for Degen Layer 3 by @proxystudio.eth under tools/token category. DMed you the logo.
You’re missing @pizza-token and @bolide 🙏
Would love FarsideFM on there!
i'm not familiar with it - it's a podcast app? Integrated with FC? Also, want me to list your podcast in media? I just need a name and logo :)
Yes! FarsideFM is the name of my podcast 😅 https://paragraph.xyz/@ishika
Ponder! @survey Survey tool
🗳️ Time for a quick poll? Start by entering your question below.
@bountycaster !
appreciate you doing this and it's likely to evolve but Hypersub is letting creators (all sorts) get reoccurring rev without the tech needs. there's tons others but I greatly appreciate you putting this together. 100 $degen
Two nice adds would be - token $ATH /alltimehigh - definitely FC native - by @cyrus and @cush.eth and an app/tool /proxyswap a new dex launched today on Degen L3… see also /farworld game being designed with frames in mind /bracket which is now running through the NBA and NHL playoffs. All incubated within FC.
logo for ᖽATH (/alltimehigh) if you need it :)
I’ve been meaning to get this > ᖽATH Will adopt going forward when practical.
How can we use $degen to pay for therapy? For ourselves and others.
Therapy fund - powered by $degen to empower
Exactly! I’d use part of my daily tips to help fund that
in seriousness, could price a membership in Degen, and redeem that for the session or sessions https://paragraph.xyz/@unlockprotocol/degen-unlock-protocol
We could! And maybe there’s a public pool or network pool of Degen funds that could be used too. I feel more people would try therapy if their first session or two was free. Help them explore it and learn more. Then maybe see some of those people top up the pool in the future.
I spent the last 2 days reading anything and everything I can about $degen When I close my eyes all I see are purple top hats They haunt my dreams But 2 key takeaways 🎩 1. This is the first token that could ever be a native currency for the creator economy 2. I’m not fucking selling the next airdrop

244 $DEGEN
420 $DEGEN
Was there an article that convinced you the most, and made you as excited as you are about it?
Welcome @joanwestenberg.eth I've loved your takes since day one. We're lucky to have you on board! 500 $degen
450 $DEGEN
word. we're stoked on it as well. https://paragraph.xyz/@unlockprotocol/degen-unlock-protocol https://paragraph.xyz/@unlockprotocol/degen-unlock-protocol
You mean that $DEGEN wouldn't stay as a Meme coin?
curious about how you got to (1)
I’ve previously concluded that audiences need an incentive to engage with and support creators beyond just “good content” - which Degen in its current form provides. But also, it’s the simplest form of creator tipping I’ve ever seen, making it a smooth and frictionless way to pay for goods.
I don’t know if that continues to be the case if / when the airdrop cycle ends and tipping becomes de-incentivised. But in its current form, it’s an entire creator economy on its own with feedback and benefit loops for both sides of the marketplace.
Love this! I did a deep dive yesterday and reached similar conclusions. 20% total supply devoted to Season 2. February used 4%, so 1/5. Can’t wait to see what March cost and how much the 10K requirement put a damper on things. I think best case scenario is Season 2 allottment gets us through July. 250 $DEGEN
If tipping is expanded outside of the farcaster ecosystem, #1 is in reach At the same time, we might have a hard time convincing the creator economy that “degen” is the right name:)
