We Provide a Platform for Collectors to Collect Artworks, and for Artists to Create and Sell their Artworks — Interview with Wdashi, Co-Founder of DontDieMeme

Chris: Hi! Can you tell us more about yourself and the role you're playing in that blooming project?

Wdashi: Hi, this is Wdashi, I am the founder of DontDieMeme, and I also have been offered the new chief meme officer position to lead the Meme community going forward

Chris: “Don’t Die Meme” is a marketplace for… Memes! Is that right? What’s platform about in general?

Wdashi: Yes, it’s right, it’s a memes & pineapple themed NFT marketplace for artist drops, genesis drops and P2E games. On our platform, you can stake $MEME to earn pineapples, which can be used to redeem artworks or genesis collections, also you can play P2E games for Meme Kids collections, earn $Pina as rewards.

Chris: Which tokens do you guys support? 

Wdashi: We now only support $MEME token and $Pina token. $Meme token is our community and governance token and will be stakable for $Pina and NFTs. $Pina is a vital part of our dual-coin system and serves as a utility token that drives activity and innovation on our platform. It is also a stable dollar pegged to the value of $1 and utilizes mechanisms inspired by Dynamic Set Dollar (DSD).

Chris: What are your unique features?

Wdashi: Our stable dollar $Pina is much different with other stable coins, we have coupons system that help reduce token supply when $Pina below 1$
First, the coupons are NFTs, and most importantly, they are artist artworks. We are now collaborating with some former meme artists to design the coupons.
With our coupons system, you need to burn your $Pina to purchase coupons NFT. The coupons will come in three levels: 1,000 $Pina, 10,000 $Pina, and 100,000 $Pina. The price of each coupon is based on the price of $Pina. For example, when the price of pina is 1.5$, then the 1,000 level coupon will be worth 1,500 pina, and if the price of pina is drop to 0.9$, then the coupon will be worth 900 pina. So you can purchase this coupon with a discount when price drops, and to help reduce the supply 
The coupon NFT will have utilities, first, it is meme artwork, would be good for collectors. second, The coupons are stakable, they can be staked on forge pool based on their face value in order to earn a reward in $Pina.
third, the coupons has a  lock period, when they expire, the coupons can be destroyed in order to receive $Pina equal to the amount originally spent on the coupon. for example, you have burned 1,500 pina for this coupon, you can burn coupon NFT to receive 1,500 pina too.
this is how our coupon system works

Chris: I can see “Drops” section. What are they?

Wdashi: That’s the meme artworks and genesis collections. We provide a platform for collectors to collect artworks, and for artists to create and sell their artworks

Chris: Nice. On a personal note: how the idea was formed?

Wdashi: Most of us from the dontbuymeme community, a platform formerly known for farming meme artworks. We have been continuing this game, staking, earning and farming. We also added some fun to it, like fomo auction, Meme Kids games etc.

Chris: Who are on your core team? What are your backgrounds?

Wdashi: Our team have 5 full-time employees, devs, UI/UE and community manager. 
I used to work at a top10 CEX as the head of technology, and now I start my own business, founded swpax.com & dontdiememe.com

Chris: Can you share your milestones for the next 3-6 months?

Wdashi: Sure
In Q1, we will launch coupons market, Meme Kids P2E games, and more artists drops
In Q2, we will integrate swapx, an NFT trading platform, into dontdiememe

Chris: Thanks! Any last word? Where can we follow you?

Wdashi: Thank you, I am confident in the potential for Meme&Pina to reach new heights in 2023, and I hope to work with the community to achieve this success.
