Nation Token Launches as Community-Owned Experiment on Base with Rug-Resistant Design
NATO, a community-owned token launched on Base in December 2024, distributed 74% of its 1 trillion supply via one of the largest airdrops in the ecosystem. Targeting one million active wallets, the project aims to eliminate centralized dumping risks by renouncing contract ownership and locking liquidity until 2030.
The tokenomics structure allocates 12% to locked liquidity, 6% to vested team incentives, and 8% for community rewards. 'No mints, no hidden fees, no upgrade functions exist—it was designed from the ground up to be rug-resistant,' stated NATO's team during a recent AMA session.
Unlike meme-driven projects, NATO forwent presales and private allocations, focusing instead on wide distribution and transparent governance. While acknowledging no system is entirely risk-free, developers emphasize its defensive architecture against common DeFi failure modes.
