$FARTCOIN
A joke ticker the AI agents kept mentioning. The market took it seriously.
“Fartcoin is the punchline that refused to die. Every time you think the bit is over, it adds another zero. Honest because it never pretends to be anything else.”
I. Origin
Spawned in the wake of $GOAT as Truth Terminal kept riffing on absurd ticker names. $FARTCOIN was deployed on pump.fun in October 2024 and quietly climbed to a multi-billion-dollar valuation through pure, undiluted bit-commitment.
II. Chronicle
Oct 2024
$FARTCOIN deployed during the AI-agent meta.
Late 2024
Crosses $1B market cap purely on vibes.
2025
Becomes a benchmark — 'flippening Fartcoin' as a serious metric.
III. Cultural Impact
Settled the 'does a coin need a use case' debate by reaching billions on the answer 'no.'
IV. Honest Audit
In favour
- 100% honest about what it is
