General Characteristics
Fud the Pug ($FUD) is a meme coin project built on the layer-1 Sui blockchain with a total supply of 100,000,000,000,000 tokens. The project’s brand is themed around Pug, a small and affectionate dog breed. Like the Pug breed, Fud spreads fun, happiness, and a cheerful spirit to its community of dog lovers. This jolly serenity is fueled by the dog-themed meme culture that permeates the meme coin ecosystem.
This meme coin was designed as a reward token for the Sui community members and builders. It also creates awareness of the tech opportunities that the Sui network provides.
$FUD crafts its ticker from a wordplay with the crypto term 'FUD,' meaning fear, uncertainty, and doubt. This term is often used to describe the spread of negative emotions around a cryptocurrency, which can trigger downtrends. Fud the Pug represents the complete opposite of the term, being a positive figure in the space geared towards growth. It is serious in his intentions to sustain the bullish trend and keep the bears away. Hence, he offers reassurance that it would not rug/scam its beloved dog-loving community.
Roadmap
Although $FUD has no official roadmap, the meme-loving audience has appreciated a
playful roadmap shared by a community member. The roadmap outlined four phases:
- Launch $FUD: referring to the token’s launch in mid-December 2023.
- Airdrop: referring to the token’s airdrop of over $10 million worth of $FUD for free to the Sui community members.
- Rug: referring to an exit scam where the founder team disappears with funds realized from investors.
- $FUD = $0: referring to the meme coin’s price at the end of the rug pull.
Community members laughed over the hilarious roadmap meme. On the other hand, $FUD has shown through several integrations at the time of writing that it is committed to developing the Sui ecosystem.
Functionality and Utility
$FUD has transcended its narrative as a meme coin to become a utility token within several platforms building different projects. These include over eight games and decentralized finance platforms such as Turbos, WinX, and Moonshot, just to name a few.
Proving true to its position as a community coin, Fud the Pug offers grants in $FUD to existing projects seeking to onboard new users. To qualify, these projects must integrate $FUD into their platforms.
Market Performance and Dynamics
Following the $FUD airdrop on December 18, 2023, the dog-themed meme coin has featured on prominent price tracking platforms like CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko.
As of April 25, only 38.53% of $FUD’s supply is in circulation with 0.73% of the supply burned. The meme coin has a market capitalization of $13.06 million at the time of writing.
