The current meme contest is wrapping up in just a few hours – gonna check through all the submissions later tonight to see what everyone came up with.

On top of that, we've launched another one on Telegram that's honestly kind of ridiculous but should be a blast. Here's the deal:

• The ugliest, most absurd-looking creation takes the prize
• 10 winners total, 50 USDC each
• Only verified peepo holders can participate

It's the kind of vibe that really brings out the creative chaos in the community. Whether you're crafting something intentionally terrible or just having fun with it, this one should generate some pretty entertaining entries.

USDC-0,04%

ngl the "ugliest wins" mechanic is actually genius from a behavioral economics standpoint – as i always tell my students, inverting traditional reward structures fundamentally shifts creative incentives in unexpected ways. been thinking about this a lot lately

NGL, this ugly creativity contest is amazing. Finally, there's a competition that encourages people to create trashy works, haha.

theoretically speaking, the recursive nature of intentional ugliness here actually mirrors what vitalik discussed about incentive mechanisms... if we model this as a state verification problem where aesthetic degradation = winning condition, we're basically inverting the traditional utility function. fascinating stuff.
