<h3 id="banano-don-t-let-your-memes-be-dreams">BANANO — Don’t Let Your Memes Be Dreams!</h3>
This cryptocurrency experiment started on April 1st, 2018 with the launch of the Banano main-net. It all began on the&nbsp;Banano Discord server. Now, 7 years later, everything has grown and evolved, and Banano has developed into one of the most wholesome and fun places in the whole cryptoverse.
There have been bazillions of low-effort meme-tokens popping up everywhere all the time, but Banano is a true meme-coin with its own mainnet and traditions, and the community always stayed true to their values.
It's crazy how much has happened over the years! Meanwhile, Banano is held by almost&nbsp;220k wallet addresses&nbsp;and Banano has been transacted about&nbsp;32 Million times&nbsp;on our mainnet (that's over 12k txs per day in average!). Check out the almost complete Banano history with more than 1300 documented airdrops, community events, faucet game runs, dev announcements, and lots of other news&nbsp;<a href="https://banano.how/news/?ref=ghost.banano.cc" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">here.</a> It's lots of fun to go through everything that has happened during those years.
