5. Microsub and Downshift Launch $ClankerSub on Clanker
Microsub and Downshift introduce $ClankerSub, an experimental token designed to share LP rewards from a Clanker token using $DEGEN tips.
Here’s how it works:
Tip this cast (not the quoted one) any amount of $DEGEN to participate.
You can tip as much and as many times as you like—no $ClankerSub ownership required.
There’s no time limit to join.
Reward Distribution:
50% of LP rewards go to Microsub.
The remaining 50% is distributed proportionally based on the $DEGEN tips received.
Note: $ClankerSub is purely experimental and speculative, with no utility planned. This is a unique exploration of how community-driven tipping can redistribute rewards.
