Over the past weeks, we’ve tested multiple formats, adjusted variables, and modeled numerous scenarios to deliver a fair and competitive environment for MemeRepublic. However, given the current market conditions in the broader crypto ecosystem and the valuable feedback shared by our community, it’s become clear that this is an important moment to pause and reassess our approach.
We completed Week 3 as planned, but we also received credible allegations, with supporting evidence, indicating that the competition may have been gamed. To protect the integrity of the 10-week series, we are pausing the distribution of Week 3 rewards and putting MemeRepublic on hold while we review both the allegations and the competition's overall structure.
This pause will give us the opportunity to carefully assess all community input, examine the evolving landscape, and strengthen our framework to more effectively reflect the standards and expectations of our users.
Once this review is complete, we will share the updated plan for the remainder of the series. We appreciate the community’s engagement, insight, and continued support as we work to deliver the best possible experience.

It’s also really surprising how $lambo’s organic growth stopped the exact moment $lambo was announced as the winner 😂
And what about when everyone was defending it, claiming it was organic? Now all the influencers who promoted it are trying to justify themselves to their audience and are putting all the blame on @ton_blockchain . The goys got scammed, the money is gone.
Meanwhile, the volumes on Ton — and Ton itself — are dropping to zero. I guess weeks 3–4 will be the end for them if things keep going like this. With each passing week, more and more crap is being dumped on TF 😂
I find this message from @TONMemeRepublic absolutely hilarious:
“Community Conduct – Projects spreading FUD or accusations without evidence will be disqualified. Focus on building, not attacking.”
Calling this stupid garbage is the same as saying nothing at all 😂
The first week is money laundering through $utya, and the second week is even more interesting — the entire buyback of $lambo goes straight into the developer’s pocket 😂😂😂.
God, why are you such stupid idiots? Who would ever trade on this dumpster called “@ton_blockchain ” if things like this are encouraged here?
What I love most about @ton_blockchain is going into Telegram where the guys post TON news and give calls on new coins. It’s hilarious. I see that the call was given a day or two ago, but damn, the coin hasn’t even pumped after the call 😂
And the way they hype it up is so funny: “This is a top dev, he’s doing buybacks, buying ads, building an app right now” — it’s just comical.
While going through the @TONMemeRepublic leaderboard, I came across this token and was honestly pretty shocked.
I have just two questions:
— what’s going on with its liquidity?
— and what is it even doing on the list?
It literally breaks all the @TONMemeRepublic rules.
1.1 The liquidity of this token is only $30k, while its market cap sits at $70 million.
On top of that, 97.28% of the supply belongs to the team. And yes, the tokens are technically locked — but they unlock 4.76% every week.
Alright, even though the leaderboard hasn’t been updated yet, the new @TONMemeRepublic week has officially started. Who’s going to make it into the top three for the third week in a row?
My favorites are $DICKSHOTI, $POK, and $SERPO — at least these tokens actually have some volume 😂
It’s a bit strange how @TONMemeRepublic operates: the competition runs from Friday to Friday, but the results and leaderboard updates only show up in the middle of the following week. Is it really that hard to do everything on time? And why not start on Monday if you don’t want to work on weekends? 😅
This system is killing me 😄
I think this is one of the plans. Honestly, TON could have a good meme season — we’ve seen it before. The only thing TF needs to do is create good conditions for creators. The start was very promising, but stupidity took over. They should have just admitted right away that they made a bad spreadsheet.
It’s funny to watch @TONMemeRepublic on @ton_blockchain . Initially, it was supposed to be a new stimulus for meme token creators and an attempt to revive the current meme season. But in fact, it looks more like the sunset of TF and the departure of most creators from TON.
@vvooTON I don’t agree here. The idea is good, but unfortunately, it was executed very poorly. If the rules had been clearly set a week before the launch and there was stricter oversight to ensure projects didn’t break them, it could have led to dozens of successful launches.
