🔍 What Is the ASYLUM Project?
ASYLUM is a cyclical ecosystem that revolves around meme creation, token burning, and multiplier-based rewards. It operates through repeating 28-day cycles where users compete to push meme content, earn token multipliers, and strategically trade between tokens. The system uses two primary tokens:
-
- ECT – the base token used for burning, voting, and minting
-
- tn – meme tokens created in each cycle based on community votes
At its core, ASYLUM gamifies token interactions and meme culture by rewarding active participation and timing.
🔧 Bootstrap Phase – The Launchpad
-
- The system starts with ECT tokens available at $0.002.
-
- For the first 12 months, the price of $ECT doubles each cycle.
-
- After 12 months, the price increases at a slower rate, using the formula:
Price Factor after n cycles = 1 + (1 × 0.25^(n-1)), making it gradually less aggressive over time.
- After 12 months, the price increases at a slower rate, using the formula:
This sets the foundation and incentive for early adopters to buy in while t0 is still cheap.
🔁 System Cycle – 28 Days, Two Steps
Each cycle is broken into two 14-day phases, creating a predictable and engaging loop:
📤 Step 1: Nomination & Selection Phase (14 Days)
-
- Users burn t0 tokens to:
-
- Vote or nominate memes
-
- Qualify for multipliers in the next minting phase
-
- Users burn t0 tokens to:
🔥 How Multipliers Work:
The reward multiplier for Step 2 is based on two factors:
-
- Burn Ranking (How Much You Burn):
-
- Lowest 25% of burners: 2.1x base multiplier
-
- Second lowest 25%: 2.25x
-
- Second highest 25%: 3x
-
- Highest 25%: 4x
-
- Burn Ranking (How Much You Burn):
-
- Timing Bonus (When You Burn):
-
- For each day remaining in the 14-day period, you get +0.1x added to your multiplier
-
- Max timing bonus: +1.4x (if you burn on Day 1)
-
- Timing Bonus (When You Burn):
✅ Combined Multiplier Ranges (Best-case scenario):
-
- Lowest tier: 2.1x to 3.5x
-
- Second tier: 2.25x to 3.65x
-
- Second highest tier: 3x to 4.4x
-
- Top tier: 4x to 5.4x
At the end of Step 1, the meme with the most votes is selected as the next cycle’s mintable meme token (tn).
🧬 Step 2: Minting Phase (14 Days)
-
- During this window, users can mint the selected tn token.
-
- Users burn t0 tokens to mint tn at the multiplier they earned in Step 1.
-
- Formula:
tn minted = ECT burned × multiplier
- Formula:
-
- Users burn t0 tokens to mint tn at the multiplier they earned in Step 1.
⚠️ Multiplier Limitations:
-
- Your earned multiplier only applies to the amount of ECT burned in Step 1.
-
- Any extra ECT burned in Step 2 (outside your Step 1 burn amount) gets only a 1x multiplier.
🔁 Reverse Burn – Anytime Redemption
The system allows users to burn tn tokens at any time to mint ECT, depending on the current supply of that tn token.
The fewer tn tokens remain, the higher the return multiplier:
Remaining tn Supply | Reverse Burn Multiplier |
---|---|
100% to 50% | 1x |
50% to 25% | 2x |
25% to 12.5% | 4x |
12.5% to 0% | 8x |
This incentivizes users to hold tn tokens and strategically burn them when supply is low for maximum gain.
♻️ Continuous Loop – Perpetual Cycles
After each cycle:
-
- A new meme token (tn+1) is introduced
-
- The process repeats with new voting, burning, and minting
-
- Old tn tokens remain active for reverse burn at any time, creating lasting value for past cycle participants
🧠 Key Takeaways:
-
- ASYLUM is a token ecosystem fueled by meme culture and economic strategy.
-
- Users are rewarded for early and strategic participation.
-
- The platform encourages community engagement, content creativity, and token burning as the core mechanics.
-
- The cyclical structure keeps the system fresh, while reverse burns ensure older tokens still have value.

🧠 ECT vs. Meme Tokens: Know the Difference Inside the Asylum
In the Meme Asylum, two types of tokens control the chaos: ECT tokens and Meme tokens. Each plays a vital role in our psychological experiment of memes, multipliers, and mayhem.
⚡ ECT Tokens (t₀
) – The Shock Treatment Fuel
ECT (Electro Convulsive Tokens) are the core utility tokens used to power everything in the ecosystem.
🔹 Used for:
- Nominating and voting on memes
- Qualifying for reward multipliers
- Minting Meme tokens (
tₙ
) - Reverse burning for more strategic gains
🔹 Why it matters:
Think of ECT as the electricity running the experiment — without it, the Asylum shuts down.
🌀 Meme Tokens (tₙ
) – The Madness Manifested
Each 30-day cycle produces a new Meme token, forged from the community’s winning meme vote.
🔸 Used for:
- Trading, collecting, or holding
- Burning to reclaim ECT (via the Reverse Burn system)
- Representing that cycle’s top meme
🔸 Why it matters:
These are the emotional outbursts of the institution — fresh, viral, and cycle-specific.
🔁 How It All Loops
ECT Token (t₀) | Meme Token (tₙ) | |
---|---|---|
🔋 Role | Ecosystem fuel | Cycle-specific reward |
🎯 Used for | Voting, minting, multipliers | Holding, trading, burning for ECT |
🔁 Burnable? | Yes | Yes (Reverse Burn) |
📦 Supply | Base token, ongoing | New each cycle |
💥 Strategy | Burn early, vote wisely | Burn late, maximize returns |
🧬 The Experiment Continues…
Together, these tokens keep The Meme Asylum alive — a never-ending loop of competition, creativity, and controlled chaos.
