ayeAyeCoin is the first named token contract ever deployed on Ethereum. As it was named after a long fingered semi extinct lemur, native from Madasgar, it´s also considered as the first animal and meme token deployed on the EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine).
ayeAyeCoin was deployed on August 20, 2015, three weeks after Ethereum mainnet launch.
ayeAyeCoin only existed in this original Ethereum chain, until the infamous The DAO Hack happened and Ethereum Foundation decided to fork the chain in the block #1920000, creating a “new-community created blockchain” which rolled back the malicious smart contract code which led to the attack.
Ethereum Foundation named as Ethereum this “new-community created blockchain” and renamed as Ethereum Classic the original Ethereum chain where ayeAyeCoin was deployed.
As Ethereum Classic chain was forked, all the existing contracts, wallets, tokens, collectibles and balances were duplicated in this new chain (everything was duplicated, with the exception of part of the smart contract code which the hacker used n to exploit The DAO, breaking the immutability principle of the blockchain) resulting as well in the creation of an ayeAyeCoin “twin” ($WAAC).
Ethereum Foundation chain was also forked few years later, in September 2022, leading to a new chain called Ethereum Proof of Work resulting in the creation of a new ayeAyeCoin “twin”.
New forks of the original Ethereum Classic chain will lead to the creation of new ayeAyeCoin “twins”.
#TheCodeIsWAACC
ayeAyeCoin is the contract number #365 deployed on the Ethereum Virtual Machine. It´s one of the first fungible tokens ever deployed on Ethereum and it´s the first one having a name (an animal-themed name), so it´s also considered the first animal living on Ethereum and the first memecoin.
As it was distributed through a trustless faucet, it can be also considered a sort of the first Limited Collectible Offered in any blockchain.
ayeAyeCoin was deployed by the anonymous developer Linagee, one of the most prolific contributors in Ethereum early days.
