Non-Playable Coin (NPC) is a memecoin-NFT hybrid that introduces the concept of "Meme-Fungible Tokens (MFTs)". It allows tokens to function as both fungible assets tradable on centralized and decentralized exchanges and customizable NFTs (tradable on NFT marketplaces). NPC is positioned as an experimental and open-source model that bridges the gap between memecoins and NFTs, aiming to expand its use cases while maintaining scalability and accessibility. ^{[1] [2] [6]}

Overview

Non-Playable Coin was launched in 2023 as a tribute to the "Non-Playable Character (NPC)" meme, which gained popularity in 2018. The project adopts the motto "I support the current coin", reflecting the meme’s cultural roots.

NPC aims to distinguish itsel from traditional memecoins and NFTs through its unique technological model. Every NPC token is backed by an NFT of the NPC meme, and tokens are freely convertible between fungible (ERC-20) and non-fungible (ERC-1155) forms using a dedicated decentralized application "Transform dApp".

The total supply of NPC reflects the recorded global population on July 29, 2023, amounting to 8,050,126,520 tokens. This finite offering aims to symbolize inclusivity by ensuring the token is accessible to everyone. ^{[1] [2] [7] [11] [12]}

Technology

Meme-Fungible Tokens (MFTs)

NPC introduces the Meme-Fungible Token standard (MFT), combining the properties of ERC-20 (fungible tokens) and ERC-1155 (multi-token NFTs). This allows:

1. ERC-20 Form (NPC): Tokens can be traded as memecoins on decentralized exchanges like [object Object].2. ERC-1155 Form (NPCMFT): Tokens are tradable as NFTs on marketplaces like [object Object] and Sudoswap. The Transform [object Object] enables seamless 1:1 conversion between these two forms with minimal gas fees:

• RESPAWN: Converts NPC into NPCMFT (NFT form).
• TRANSFORM: Converts NPCMFT back into NPC (memecoin form).

ERC11 Token Standard

NPC pioneers the ERC-11 standard, which combines ERC-20 and ERC-1155 functionality. This new standard allows tokens to carry embedded metadata, such as images or media, while retaining liquidity on decentralized exchanges. The ERC-11 standard is open-source, designed to inspire the next wave of "Memecoins 2.0", according to the words of the creators.

Customization and Non-Playable Customs

NPC offers a unique customization feature through a [d[object Object]](https://iq.wiki/wiki/decentralized-application) that enables users to create personalized Non-Playable Characters. With over 220 traits available, users can generate billions of unique combinations.

To mint a customized NPC as an NFT, users burn their base ERC-1155 token. Each customization becomes part of the Non-Playable Customs collection, a permanent on-chain record.

• Symbolic Cost: Each NFT cost 1 NPC token to mint, which was then burned.
• Largest PFP Collection: The collection represents one of the largest PFP (profile picture) series with unique traits ever recorded on-chain. Custom creations are stored permanently and viewable on marketplaces like [object Object] and MagicEden.

AI Integration

The NPC project includes AI-powered tools for generating NPC-related content:

• NPC AI Generator: An AI tool that allows users to create NPC-themed images and memes based on prompts.
• Customization dApp: The art creation tool facilitates PFP customization with high detail and variety. While the customization and AI tools are optional, they provide an engaging creative outlet for the NPC community. ^{[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [8] [10]}

Tokenomics

The NPC tokenomics aims to be straightforward and fair:

• Total Supply: 8,050,126,520 (reflecting global population on-chain). Launch Distribution:
• 99% allocated to [object Object]**** [object Object]. - 1% distributed to NFT marketplaces. Liquidity Locked:
• Liquidity is locked until the year 6969.

No Transaction Fees:

• NPC imposes no transaction fees. Renounced Contract:
• The smart contract is renounced, ensuring immutability.

Scalability

Addressing NFT Limitations

Traditional NFTs, using the [object Object] standard, have been criticized for their limited scalability and accessibility. Most collections are constrained to ~10,000 units due to gas fees and exclusivity, resulting in high costs and limited liquidity.

NPC addresses these challenges by adopting the [object Object]**** standard to enable mass supply, low transaction costs, and customizable traits. This model makes NFTs more inclusive and accessible, similar to memecoins.

Use Cases

The NPC project explores creative applications for memecoin-NFT hybrids, including experimental proof-of-concept models:

• Biden vs. Trump: A two-sided memecoin where one side is an NFT for Trump and the other a memecoin for Biden.
• Groge: A memecoin backed by a song dedicated to "gray Doge," NPC's dog mascot.
• Lil NPC - 4EVA GRAY: A memecoin linked to an NPC-themed trap song.
• NPC: The Game: A memecoin tied to an interactive video game, playable as an NFT. Non-Playable Coin (NPC) is a cultural and artistic experiment paying tribute to the NPC meme. It has no intrinsic value, utility, or financial expectations. All tokens, NFTs, and related tools are for entertainment purposes only.

The customization app, AI tools, and dApps are optional and meant purely for creative exploration. All art and tokens created can be freely copied and saved, and their use is at the user’s discretion. ^{[1] [2] [4] [9] [10]}
