Today, we're thrilled to announce that we're rebranding from Based Bot (TYBB) to AskGina (AGI) across all platforms. This isn't just a name change – it's a whole new vibe.
Out with the Old, In with the New
Based Bot started as the hobby project of our three co-founders, but let's be honest, the name was an inside joke for people like them (and if you're reading this, probably you). It was a tongue-in-cheek nod to the Based God, and if you got it, you were part of the crowd early to Base and Farcaster.
But here's the thing: while being part of an exclusive club is fun, it's even better to throw open the doors and invite everyone to the party. That's where Ask Gina comes in.
Why Ask Gina?
We are on a mission to help everyone access the very best onchain experiences and we needed a name that reflects that. Gina is:
Personable: Gina is not just another ChatGPT wrapper, she is your crypto-native bestie.
Friendly: Forget the jargon. Gina speaks your language.
Trustworthy: The friend who always gives it to you straight. Gina has got your back.
Meet Gina: Your New Onchain Assistant
Imagine your most terminally-online friend, who always knows what's popping onchain. That's Gina. Whether you're trying to screen new memecoin launches on Base, find new friends on Farcaster, or just figure out where the yield on Morpho comes from: Gina's here to help.
As part of our rebrand, our closed beta is expanding. We're inviting more users to the whitelist, who can try Gina for themselves. To get access, sign-up with Farcaster at askgina.ai
We will be rolling out access to folks who sign up + follow the account on Farcaster to start with and may have some special surprises for those who are first :)
