Introduction To $BUILD, Who Made It?
The $BUILD token and the Talent Protocol were created by Filipe Macedo. A prodigious web3 builder from Lisbon, Portugal. He launched this token on Coinbase's Layer 2 Blockchain, Base. and the ticker is $BUILD.
$BUILD is coined... as the universal builder's income. Which means BUILD is more than a memecoin. It's an onchain builder economy, with a fair-launched token, a decentralized community and a powerful brand.
What Are $BUILD Tokens?
$BUILD tokens are the reward for posting in the /Build channel on warpcaster. Channels are community chats and they're how you can connect with people who have interests similar to yours online, with the added ability to earn crypto for your posts.
$BUILD helps recognize and nurture onchain builders & developers by rewarding them with memecoins which can either be held, sold, or "burned" to get a raffle ticket for a huge prize.
