A year ago, Hajimi was just a name people sang. Today, it has a community, a few charity runs, and plushies that have travelled beyond Singapore in the arms of new friends. 💚
At TOKEN2049, Hajimi plushies found new homes one by one. A sweet little reminder of how far this community has come.

一岁生日快乐。🎂
时间真快。
哈基米来到加密之前,就已经有了自己的生命力。在 Web2,它已有延续五年的社群文化,数千亿次的播放与使用,以及数百万人次的二创参与。这些持续多年的创作,也让我们对哈基米有了长期建设的信心。还有那么多人愿意使用它,一直赋予这个词新的意义,那能做的事情就还有很多。
我们也是其中的一群人。因为喜欢哈基米聚到一起,后来开始为这个社区花时间、出主意、做些事情。一年下来,这份喜欢已经有了一些具体的成果。
六月,我们完成了近太空计划,把哈基米送到了约四十公里高的平流层。玩偶、旗帜、影像、照片和坐标,都留了下来。以后任何人来了解哈基米社区,都能找到这次行动的记录,知道我们在这一年做过这样一件事。它也让我们开始认真考虑:未来一年、三年,还能一起完成什么?
今天,也借一周年的机会,向大家介绍一个我们筹备了很久的长期计划——“社区版尾崎八项”。
八项分别是:近太空、珠峰、深海、南极、轨道、月球、时间胶囊,以及一处能够长期保留的现实纪念物。近太空是我们已经完成的第一项,其余七项,希望在未来几年里陆续推进。
这些计划需要社区一起研究、联系和执行。有些已经在筹备,有些还需要寻找合适的机会。希望以后每次过生日,都能拿出新的进展和大家分享。
公益也在继续。我们持续向流浪猫救助者和救助基地提供支持,其中有照顾着数百只猫的退休阿姨,社区成员也一直在自发救助流浪动物。我们与 https://t.co/3NWgJnKPep 一起向 Giggle Academy 捐赠,社区成员也多次以个人名义捐赠,支持儿童免费教育。一个因为 Meme 聚起来的社区,能为这些事情出一份力,我们觉得很合适,也非常愿意继续做。
我们成立了基金会,希望支持哈基米文化的长期发展,持续开展慈善活动,也为社区建设提供支持。我们向长期贡献者累计发放了超过五万美元的空投。做内容、传播、组织活动、准备物料,这些工作经常发生在大家看不到的地方。把贡献认出来,让付出的人得到回报,是社区建设里需要认真对待的一件事。一个社区要做很多年,就得照顾好愿意一起做事的人。
我们也做了自己的玩偶和周边。最近,哈基米出现在了 TOKEN2049 的 https://t.co/3NWgJnKPep 展台上,被来自不同地方的朋友带走。对我们来说,做周边还有一个很直接的乐趣:平时隔着屏幕看到的哈基米玩偶,终于可以拿在手里,也可以送给别人。
这一年,哈基米也登陆了 Binance Futures。这是值得庆祝的进展,让更多市场参与者有机会认识我们。我们当然希望哈基米有更好的市场表现,也会继续争取更多机会。同时,公益、二创、周边和现实里的计划,都还有各自要推进的事情。
也想在一周年这天,感谢 https://t.co/3NWgJnKPep 和 Cova。从公益合作到 TOKEN2049,你们愿意听社区的想法,也愿意帮忙把事情往前推进。对一个靠成员共同建设的社区来说,有人认真对待我们的想法,愿意提供机会和帮助,是很重要的支持。
也感谢 BNB Chain,以及生态里一路与我们交流、合作的伙伴。哈基米在 BSC 的这一年,让我们认识了很多愿意一起做事的人。我们希望继续在这里建设,让中文 Meme 的文化、二创和社区活动被更多人看见,也为这个生态添一些属于哈基米的内容。以后还有很多事情可以一起尝试。
社区这一年最大的变化,是我们开始有了自己的共同经历。大家聊哈基米时,除了分享网上的新作品,也会聊到某次活动、某件自己参与过的事。文化让我们聚到一起,而这一年的共同经历,也让社区逐渐成为了哈基米文化的一部分。
所以,我们想把这些记录好。哪一年做了什么,谁参与了,留下了哪些影像和实物,都逐渐整理进社区的编年史。过几年再来看,应该还能查得到、说得清。未来的八项计划也一样,每完成一项,就把任务资料、影像、坐标和参与者记录下来,给这份编年史添上新的内容。
一周年,已经有一些事情可以拿出来给大家看,也还有很多事情等着做。
无论你现在还在社区,还是已经离开,都感谢你曾经参与其中,陪我们走过这段旅程。
生日快乐,最好的我们。😼
Happy first birthday, Hajimi. 🎂
Time flies.
Hajimi already had a life of its own before it entered crypto. In Web2, it has five years of community culture behind it, hundreds of billions of views and uses, and millions of contributions through remixes and fan creations. Those years of creativity give us confidence in building for the long term. As long as people keep using Hajimi and giving it new meanings, there is still plenty we can do.
We are part of that crowd. We came together because we liked Hajimi, then began putting time, ideas, and effort into this community. A year later, that shared affection has produced some tangible results.
In June, we completed our near-space mission, sending Hajimi roughly 40 kilometers up into the stratosphere. We kept the plush, flags, footage, photos, and coordinates. Anyone who wants to learn about this community in the future will be able to find those records and see what we did in our first year. It also got us thinking seriously: what else could we accomplish together over the next year, or the next three?
Today, on our first anniversary, we would also like to introduce a long-term plan we have been preparing for some time: our community’s version of the “Ozaki Eight.”
The eight projects are: near space, Mount Everest, the deep sea, Antarctica, orbit, the Moon, a 100-year time capsule, and a lasting physical monument. Near space is the first one we have completed. We hope to make progress on the remaining seven over the coming years.
These plans will take research, coordination, and work from the community. Some are already in preparation; others still need the right opportunity. Hopefully, each birthday will give us something new to share.
Our charity work continues too. We provide ongoing support to stray-cat rescuers and rescue centers, including retired women caring for hundreds of cats. Community members also continue to rescue stray animals on their own. Together with https://t.co/3NWgJnKPep, we donated to Giggle Academy, and members have made personal donations on multiple occasions as well, supporting free education for children. For a community brought together by a meme, helping with these things feels fitting, and we are very happy to keep doing it.
We established a foundation to support the long-term development of Hajimi culture, continue our charity work, and help the community grow. We have distributed more than $50,000 in airdrops to long-term contributors. Creating content, spreading the word, organizing activities, and preparing materials often happen out of public view. Recognizing that work and rewarding the people who do it deserves serious attention. A community that wants to keep building for years needs to take care of the people willing to build together.
We also made our own plush toys and merchandise. Recently, Hajimi appeared at https://t.co/3NWgJnKPep’s TOKEN2049 booth and went home with people from different places. There is a simple pleasure in making merchandise: the Hajimi we usually see through a screen becomes something we can hold in our hands and give to someone else.
This year, Hajimi also launched on Binance Futures. That is a development worth celebrating, giving more market participants an opportunity to discover us. Of course, we want Hajimi to perform better in the market, and we will keep pursuing more opportunities. Meanwhile, our charity work, creative projects, merchandise, and real-world plans all have work ahead of them.
On this first anniversary, we also want to thank https://t.co/3NWgJnKPep and Cova. From our charity collaboration to TOKEN2049, you have been willing to listen to the community’s ideas and help move them forward. For a community built through its members’ efforts, having people take those ideas seriously and offer opportunities and help means a great deal.
Thank you as well to BNB Chain and the partners across the ecosystem who have stayed in touch and worked with us. Our first year on BSC has introduced us to many people willing to get things done together. We want to keep building here, bring Chinese meme culture, fan creations, and community activities to more people, and contribute something distinctly Hajimi to the ecosystem. There is still plenty we can try together.
The biggest change this year is that we now have shared experiences of our own. When people talk about Hajimi, they share new creations from the internet, but they also talk about an event or something they helped make happen. Culture brought us together, and this year of shared experiences has gradually made the community part of Hajimi culture itself.
That is why we want to keep a proper record. What we did each year, who took part, and what footage and physical objects remain will gradually become part of our community chronicle. Years from now, those records should still be there for people to find and understand. The eight projects will follow the same approach: as each one is completed, we will preserve its mission documents, footage, coordinates, and participants’ contributions, adding another entry to that chronicle.
At one year old, we already have some things to show, and plenty more waiting to be done.
Whether you are still in the community or have moved on, thank you for being part of it and sharing this stretch of the journey with us.
Happy birthday to this wonderful community of ours. 😼
看着哈基米玩偶在 TOKEN2049 现场的照片,我们很开心,也很感动。
社区一起准备、打包、寄出的哈基米玩偶,出现在了 https://t.co/3NWgJnKPep 的展台上,又被送到来自不同地方的朋友手中。平时在群聊、表情包和音乐里陪伴大家的基米,这一次,也陪大家在现场留下了合影。😽
特别感谢 Cova @covachong 和https://t.co/3NWgJnKPep 的每一位现场工作人员 @fourdotmemezh 。展会期间忙碌的事情很多,帮忙派发玩偶、拍照记录、发推分享……这些事都需要你们在忙碌的展会中抽出时间、投入心力。哈基米能够在现场被更多人看见,离不开你们的帮助。
感谢你们💚
筹备时,我们想着的是把东西准备好、顺利寄到。等到看见现场的照片,才觉得这些忙碌有了特别具体的意义:大家一起准备的玩偶,真的被人抱在了怀里,也被带去了我们还没有到过的地方。
以后,这些哈基米也许会出现在某个人的办公桌上、家里的书架上,或是下一段旅途的行李箱里。也许有一天,有人问起这只小猫,对方会说:
“这是我在 TOKEN2049 遇见的哈基米。”
想到这里,就觉得这趟旅程很棒。
谢谢 https://t.co/3NWgJnKPep,让哈基米有机会与更多朋友见面;谢谢 Cova 和现场团队,让社区的心意被好好地传递;也谢谢每一位参与设计、准备、寄送物料的社区伙伴,以及在现场与哈基米合影、把它带回家的朋友。
这些照片,会成为社区共同的回忆。以后再翻到它们,我们也会记得,是大家一起,让哈基米来到了这里。
这次见面的照片,我们会好好珍藏。
下一次,再带着新的故事与大家见面。💚
Hajimi × https://t.co/3NWgJnKPep
Seeing the photos of our Hajimi plushies at TOKEN2049 made us happy—and a little emotional, too.
The plushies our community prepared, packed, and shipped arrived at the https://t.co/3NWgJnKPep booth, then found their way into the hands of friends from different places. The little Hajimi who keeps us company in our chats, memes, and music was there to share a photo with everyone this time. 😽
A special thank you to Cova @covachong and every member of the https://t.co/3NWgJnKPep team on site @fourdotmemezh . Handing out plushies, taking photos, sharing posts… all of this took time and care during a busy event. Your help brought Hajimi to so many more people.
Thank you 💚
While preparing everything, we were focused on getting it packed and delivered safely. Seeing the photos gave all that work a deeper meaning: the plushies we had prepared together were being held in someone’s arms and taken to places we have yet to visit.
Perhaps these Hajimis will find a home on someone’s desk, on a bookshelf, or in a suitcase heading off on another journey. Maybe one day, someone will ask about the little cat, and the answer will be:
“This is the Hajimi I met at TOKEN2049.”
That thought alone makes this journey feel wonderful.
Thank you, https://t.co/3NWgJnKPep, for giving Hajimi the chance to meet more friends. Thank you, Cova and the team on site, for passing along our community’s love with such care. And thank you to every community member who helped design, prepare, and ship the materials, and to who everyone took a photo with Hajimi or brought one home.
These photos will become part of our community’s shared memories. When we look back at them, we’ll remember that all of us helped bring Hajimi here.
We’ll treasure the photos from this gathering.
Next time, we’ll bring new stories to share with you. 💚
