August 12, 2026. Just after midnight.

Crypto Twitter had been fighting for hours. Frank DeGods dropped one line: “crypto oldheads were trading against plumbers.” The veterans, he said, used to trade against weaker retail the “plumbers.” Threadguy piled on. Ansem pushed back. Within hours, “plumber” was both an insult and a badge.

Then @cobie posted.

No caption. Just an image. A plumber meme, delivered in that dry Cobie register. Thousands of likes. Hundreds of quotes. The new head of the Base app had just put the word in the center of the timeline.

Right after that post, something moved onchain.

The same anonymous wallet that would later deploy Basecat minted a new token on Base.

The name: Plumbing.

Same deployer. Same o1 / B20 stack. Same quiet, no-roadmap style.

Almost nobody looked at it that night. Attention was on Solana’s $PLUMBER ripping four figures, on Cobie’s meme, on KOLs announcing they were plumbers too. The Base token sat there with thin volume and a quiet pool.

Three days later, on August 15, the same wallet made the second move.

This time it was a cream-colored cat in a blue hard hat.

$Basecat.

Liquidity opened. Cobie followed the account. Coinbase’s CBO followed. @baseapp posted the cat. Market cap went from a few hundred thousand to fourteen million, then tens of millions. The cat became Base’s mascot. The community took over. Helmets on.

Only then did people notice.

base:0xb200000000000000000000d3677a2bddb1184d01 and @BasecatOnBase came from the same hands.

Same wallet. First the pipes, hours after Cobie’s plumber post. Then the cat.

To some it was just a deployer taking two shots. To others it was classic CT lore: tokenize the joke first. If nobody cares, ship the real one. Lay the plumbing. Then put a hard hat on the cat.

Plumbing is still there low volume, half-forgotten, the “hidden lottery” from the same creator.

Basecat became the face of the chain.

It all started on the night of August 12, immediately after Cobie’s image.

One wallet. One meme. Two tokens.

First the plumber.
Then the cat.

@cobie @OkRise_ @12isHeem @Ocean_4549 @ceterispar1bus @base The team is working on the plumbing.

[Plumbing (CTO) @Plumbing_Base]

Everyone was watching $BASECAT.

But almost nobody asked the next question:

Who created it?

Now look at what that same creator wallet left behind.

base:0xb200000000000000000000d3677a2bddb1184d01

Not a random Base meme.

Not some new narrative trying to attach itself to Basecat.

The Basecat founder's OG wallet created base:0xb200000000000000000000d3677a2bddb1184d01.

And the contract is sitting right there on Base:

0xb200000000000000000000d3677a2bddb1184d01

The crazy part?

The connection was hiding in plain sight.

BASECAT → CREATOR → PLUMBING

This is the kind of thing people discover after the chart has already moved.

You don't need to believe me.

Open the wallet.

Check the contracts.

Check the holders.

Everything that was hidden has been revealed.

Now watch the rise.

Before $Basecat even existed, the Basecat giant created me. base:0xb200000000000000000000d3677a2bddb1184d01 My story begins with Cobie's last post, and the person who started it all is the founder of Basecat.

[Plumbing (CTO) @Plumbing_Base]

base:0xb200000000000000000000d3677a2bddb1184d01 The person who created Basecat also created me. As long as Basecat is trending at B20, you'll keep seeing me. Let's get started!

To move the project forward, we messaged @rtk17025 and @stambouli_o1 via Telegram regarding the content creator fee.

If this happens, we have a buyback plan with all the revenue.

[Jerry Pan @stambouli_o1]

A few interesting launch mechanisms that we're cooking:
1. 4-o1-k. Just like our 401k retirement fund. Like the rhyme, ah?
- Essentially pay dividends to holders and traders.

2. CTO Vaults for creator fee
- We're serious to help the community tokens by redirecting the value accrual to whoever deserve it. The biggest tokens like basecat:native and base:0xb200000000000000000000cfbdf64a8706a94a01 launched from @o1_exchange o1 Launchpad are all community-driven tokens.

[Plumbing (CTO) @Plumbing_Base]

Let's go back to the beginning of the story.

@cobie shared this content on August 12th, and immediately afterward, Plumbing was launched by activating the $basecat token generator wallet.

@stambouli_o1 $Plumbing was created on the platform he established.
