Decentralized · Peer to Peer · Unbowed

A coin for the people who refuse to be owned. DEFIANT stands against financial control and for the sovereignty of the human race — hold your own keys, trade on open markets, and answer to no gatekeeper. Minted on Base, launched through Zora.

The DEFIANT coin — a roaring lion behind a lone figure raising the world

We do not ask permission to hold what is ours. DEFIANT is money that answers to no throne — struck for the human race, held by the human hand.

The Cause

What DEFIANT Stands For

A meme, a mint, and a message. DEFIANT is a community content coin on Base — but the idea behind the metal is older than any chain: your value, your keys, your call.

⚔

Stand Unbowed

No gatekeepers, no permission slips. Anyone with a wallet can hold, send, and trade DEFIANT — openly and directly.

🔑

Self-Custody Is Freedom

Not your keys, not your coin. DEFIANT is built for people who want to hold their own value instead of trusting a middleman to hold it for them.

🜂

Peer to Peer

Settled on Base, an Ethereum layer-2. Fast, low-cost, and open to anyone — value moving person to person without a toll booth in the middle.

🦁

For the Human Race

The lion roars, the standard-bearer lifts the world. DEFIANT is a rallying symbol for financial self-determination — a coin that belongs to its holders.

The Cost of Trading

Fees & Taxes

DEFIANT adds no tax of its own — it's a standard ERC-20, so holding or sending it costs nothing but Base network gas. The only trading cost is the Zora protocol's fee, charged by the Uniswap v4 pool on swaps.

0%Transfer / Hold Tax

Send, receive, and hold DEFIANT with no token tax — you only ever pay standard Base network gas.

1%Trading Fee · Buy & Sell

Applied by the Zora Uniswap v4 pool on every trade — the same whether you route through Zora, Coinbase, or elsewhere.

Where the 1% Goes

Split on every trade between the creator, the platform referrer, the trade referrer, the Zora protocol, and Doppler.

20% Back to Liquidity

A fifth of every trading fee is relocked into the pool as permanent depth, so liquidity deepens as volume grows.

Launch Sniper Tax

To block snipers, the pool opened with a 99% fee that decayed to normal within about 10 seconds of launch — a one-time protection, not an ongoing cost.

Not Set by DEFIANT

These fees belong to the Zora protocol and are identical across its content coins. They can change with the protocol — confirm current rates in Zora's docs.

The Artwork

Read the Coin

Every mark on the medallion carries the message.

The DEFIANT coin in detail
  • ✦ The Lion

    Courage & the Roar

    The lion is the roar against control — strength that will not kneel, guarding the figure at the coin's heart.

  • ✦ The Standard-Bearer

    Humanity Lifts the World

    A lone figure raises the earth overhead: the human race carrying its own fate, refusing to hand it to anyone else.

  • ✦ The Legend

    “EIVS CAVSA SVI”

    The Latin struck around the rim reads, loosely, “a cause unto itself” — self-determination, needing no master to justify it.

  • ✦ The Mint Mark

    Struck & Numbered

    Roman numerals mark the coin like a minted piece of currency — a small nod to money that predates every gatekeeper.

!

Low Liquidity, High Risk

This is a micro-cap coin with thin liquidity. Prices can swing hard, and you may not be able to sell at the price you see.

Self-custody puts you in control — and makes you responsible. Nobody can recover a lost seed phrase for you.

FAQ

Questions & Answers

What is DEFIANT?
DEFIANT is a decentralized, peer-to-peer content coin on the Base network, launched via Zora. It's a community meme coin built around a simple idea: financial self-sovereignty for the human race — hold your own keys and trade on open markets.
Where can I buy it?
The easiest route is the DEFIANT page on Coinbase — sign in and tap Buy. You can also trade on Zora with a self-custody wallet and USDC. See “How to Buy” above.
What chain is it on?
Base — an Ethereum layer-2. You'll need a small amount of ETH or USDC on Base to trade and cover fees.
How much DEFIANT exists?
The verified Zora ContentCoin contract mints a fixed total supply of 1,000,000,000 DEFIANT at launch, split by the contract itself: 990,000,000 (99%) seeded to the liquidity pool and 10,000,000 (1%) to the creator. You can confirm this in the contract source on BaseScan.
How do I verify the contract?
Check the address 0xfecd795ede61ea0f7bd18e9506504397266c1a4f on BaseScan and on the Coinbase price page. Never trade a token whose contract you haven't matched.
Are there buy or sell taxes?
DEFIANT itself has no transfer tax — it's a standard ERC-20, so holding and sending are free beyond network gas. Trading through the Zora pool carries a 1% fee on each buy and sell, split among the creator, referrers, the Zora protocol, and Doppler, with 20% of fees relocked as liquidity. Those fees are set by the Zora protocol, not by DEFIANT. See Zora's docs for current rates.
Is this financial advice?
No. Nothing here is financial, investment, legal, or tax advice. DEFIANT is a highly speculative micro-cap meme coin. Only ever spend money you can afford to lose entirely, and do your own research.
What does the artwork mean?
A roaring lion guards a lone figure lifting the world, ringed by a Latin legend. Together they stand for courage and human self-determination — the theme behind the whole project. See “Read the Coin” above.
The Idea

A Coin You Can Hold in Your Own Hand
