Degen (DEGEN), launched in January 2024, began as a meme coin rewarding users on the decentralized social platform Farcaster but has evolved into a cornerstone of the Degen Chain, a Layer-3 blockchain built on Base (an Ethereum Layer-2 solution). Known for its community-centric approach, DEGEN powers social tipping, decentralized finance (DeFi), and gaming, earning the moniker “Las Vegas of blockchains.” As altcoin ETFs gain traction in 2025, with Solana and XRP funds on the horizon, DEGEN’s innovative model positions it as a speculative yet intriguing asset. This article explores DEGEN’s mechanics, functionality, and price dynamics, offering insights for investors navigating the volatile crypto landscape.
