It's kind of a long story..

It started with tn100x, the next 100x meme coin on base, distributed through the mint of the Based LP characters. Each NFT is backed by tn100x, burning the nft redeems 60% of the backing, 40% goes to the remaining NFTs. The /lp channel was the singular place for community members. The golden ham was introduced, stake tn100x in a golden ham nft for 90 days and earn yield. First intro of a ham. Added the based lp character to a mini game. Beat the boss to get a purple ham nft. Second introduction of a ham. Saw what Degen was doing with tipping. I thought that's fun let's do that with the Ham emoji. Everyone started tipping Ham. Ham became bigger than the lp so we should just call it Ham. But there were already tens of thousands of channel members and tn100x already had half a million dollars of bootstrapped liquidity. 

So here we are embracing the stupidity. The token with ticker HAM exists on Ham chain and is tippable in the feed. It's backed 1 to 1 with TN100x.
