 I'm feeling quite unhappy about with "this cycle’s celebrity experimentation" so far. "Financialization as a means toward an end", I can respect if the end is worthy (healthcare, open source software, art, etc).

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-characteristics-listed-by-vitalik-buterin-strong">Characteristics Listed by Vitalik Buterin</h2> 
– “Have some kind of public-good goal that it’s serving, other than enriching the celebrity and early adopters. Realistically, either an art project or the celebrity’s favourite charity, or both.” – Vitalik Buterin 
<ol> 
 <li></li> 
</ol> 
The Ethereum co-founder believes that all the meme crypto projects should have a good cause for the public, which can include a preferred charitable cause, an art project or both, like most of the celebrity meme coins do today. The endorsement should not be the only motivation behind the creation of crypto; there should be a sustainable good cause. 
He believes that the cause behind the creation appeals to the investor and increases credibility, growth potential, sustainability and reliability over the celebrity endorsing the coin. 
– “Have some kind of fun mechanics that go beyond just trading a token. As much as I dislike token voting DAOs, at least they give something for people to do and organize around. The DAO should not fully decide the agenda, but it can have some influence.” – <a href="https://www.thecoinrepublic.com/2024/05/21/update-vitalik-buterin-shares-insights-on-ethereum-upgrades/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Vitalik Buterin</a> 
<ol start="2"> 
 <li></li> 
</ol> 
According to Buterin, there should be other fun mechanics or background activity apart from trading the meme token introduced in the project. The objective of this is to keep users or investors engrossed in the project.&nbsp; 
He himself dislikes the voting system in DAO, but he appreciates it for providing users something to keep them engaged. He further added that the additional fun or mechanics should not decide the complete agenda or operations but they should have some influence on the users’ motivation.&nbsp; 
– “Make something that lasts 10+ years, rather than bubbling around for a few months and then being forgotten.”- Vitalik Buterin 
<ol start="3"> 
 <li></li> 
</ol> 
Buterin generally prefers and is known to support sustainable projects over buzzing projects. He states that a project that has a reason and potential to sustain should be a prime character of Celebrity meme project as it not only boosts the growth of projects but supports the growth of overall industry. 
He rightly believes that a project without a sustainable project might gain attention initially due to the fame of celebrity endorsing it but will not last for long and will be forgotten soon. 
Moreover, he believes that a causal project will have something to do with and will continue to exist and grow even if the value of the token reaches to 0. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading" id="strong-mother-iggy-s-preference-over-ashton-and-mila-strong">Mother Iggy’s preference over Ashton and Mila</h3> 
Wallstreetbets, an X user with approximately 730K followers believes that Mother Iggy has much more sustainable background than Ashton and Mila’s stoner cats as Mother Iggy provides higher entertainment value. 
The Mother Iggy ($MOTHER) has just been announced and has much more in his bucket to be launched soon.
