BasedHype

BasedHype is a meme token on the Base blockchain, launched in July 2025 as a symbolic protest against what its creators describe as unsustainable tokenomics practices in the cryptocurrency space. It is aimed at a community of participants who share that viewpoint rather than at users of a specific product or service. It does not claim to solve a technical problem; its stated purpose is cultural and community-oriented.

BasedHype is a standard ERC-20 token living on the Base network, with a fixed maximum supply of 10,000,000,000 units, all of which are already in circulation, meaning the circulating supply equals the max supply and the dilution overhang stands at 0.0% as of the point-in-time measurement. The contract has been renounced, meaning no party retains the ability to mint new tokens, impose taxes, or upgrade the contract. A scheduled burn program draws from a vesting pool, and liquidity representing 20% of supply is locked via a third-party service until June 30, 2028.

BasedHype collects no protocol fees; the token carries no transaction tax and no mechanism for routing fees to any party, so fee-based measures such as revenue or fee yield are not applicable here. The token's economics center entirely on supply reduction through periodic burns rather than on a revenue model. The 24-hour turnover ratio stands at 0.000169 and the 30-day average turnover ratio is 0.001977, both relative to market capitalization, reflecting the volume of trading activity passing through the token over those respective periods.
