Avalanche Protocol Meme Coin Collection Project
In late December of last year, the Avalanche Foundation announced through the Culture Catalyst program that it would purchase selected meme coins on the Avalanche chain to collect and recognize the culture and fun symbolized by meme coins.
The Foundation emphasized that in addition to well-known categories of cryptocurrencies such as Gas tokens, DeFi, NFTs, stablecoins, governance tokens, and Real World Assets (RWA), meme coins also hold an important position in the crypto field.

Avalanche Protocol Announces Selection Criteria
The selection criteria of the Avalanche Protocol lean towards being strict, and many meme coins that have experienced significant growth in the past year may not qualify.
Principles of Fair Distribution
The team does not retain token allocations.
Initial liquidity needs to be destroyed or locked.
The issuer relinquishes ownership of community token contracts.
Anti-whale measures, such as limiting the purchase amount per address.
Protection against Bots
To reduce the risk of initial token issuance being targeted by bots, the Avalanche Protocol encourages token developers to obtain whitelist access through the following criteria:
Ownership of Avvy domain (.avax).
Holding a certain amount of AVAX.
Holding recognized Avalanche NFTs.
Recent interactions with Avalanche subnets and dApps.
Security
Contracts must undergo audits.
The creator’s address must pass due diligence.
Deployment on tools like DexScreener without any doubts.
