Mfers do what they want!
While other projects try to dress up their tokens with complex tokenomics and forced ‘culture,’ mfers embrace their token for what it is: no intrinsic value, no expectation of profit, and no prescribed utility.
Just mfers being mfers.
History
Mfercoin was created by sartoshi in early 2024.
However, the project's roots trace back to 2021 when sartoshi first created the mfers NFT collection — a generative collection of simple stick figure characters wearing headphones.
After mysteriously vanishing in 2022 (in a nod to Satoshi himself), sartoshi transferred the mfers contract and royalty share to the community treasury.
"I thought it would be cool & mysterious to vanish into the ether like Satoshi Nakamoto and have mfers live on without me. In hindsight, I should've simply kept my original twitter and stayed." - Sartoshi in the $MFER whitepaper
That plot twist led to "life death & cryptoart" and other projects in 2023, before culminating in the launch of mfercoin itself — a token designed to connect mfers past, present and future.
The token launched with quintessential mfer energy — no presale, no influencer allocations, just a fixed supply of 1 billion $MFER with 20% distributed to the ecosystem and 80% into liquidity.
The largest chunk went straight to the community treasury, ensuring future mfers would have their share of the experiment.
Scene
The mfer scene centers on the simple idea that "we all mfers."
It's about people coming together around shared values and experiences rather than profit motives. $MFER "has no intrinsic value, no expectation of profit, and no prescribed utility."
The community consists of OG crypto lovers, who resonate with the original mfer spirit, and newcomers drawn to its laid-back vibe.
Future
The mfer community treasury, which received 10 million $MFER tokens, ensures there are ample resources for future community initiatives and artist collaborations.
With the treasury currently holding around 210 ETH (~$750k), the community has significant resources to help shape the ecosystem's future.
In the crazy degeneracy of the current crypto landscape, mfers stand as a reminder that, at our core, we're all just mfers trying to figure this stuff out together.
