Recently, a Base chain-based pandemic-themed meme coin platform called Infected has sparked discussion in the community. The platform will issue 30 meme coins named after viruses, including $COVID, $HIV, $EBOLA, and others, and will launch a one-week competition, with the virus that infects the most people winning all the transaction fees. It is understood that the virus token project will open pre-sales at 8 pm tonight (24th).

ToggleTribute to the Pump.fun Virus Token Launch Platform
In this game, there are 30 meme coins named after viruses, with a total supply of 100 billion for each token. When the total supply of a token reaches 67 billion, it will be listed on Uniswap, with 6.7 billion tokens added to the Uniswap liquidity pool. In simple terms, this mechanism is partly similar to the principle of Pump.fun token launch. The 30 viruses are:
$COVID
$HIV
$EBOLA
$INFLUENZA
$SARS
$BIRDFLU
$PIGFLU
$RABIES
$MALARIA
$TUBERCULOSIS
$MEASLES
$DENGUE
$SMALLPOX
$MONKEYPOX
$HEPATITISB
$HEPATITISC
$POLIO
$CHOLERA
$ZIKA
$PLAGUE
$YELLOWFEVER
$NOROVIRUS
$TETANUS
$MERS
$HERPES
$WNV
$ANTHRAX
$DIPHTHERIA
$PNEUMONIA

The Great Virus Battle Centered on the Pandemic
Infected can be understood as a pandemic game, where addresses holding 0.005 ETH are considered active users, and the holders of the virus coins need to send tokens to infect active users. Holding at least 1,000 tokens will be considered infected, and if an address holds multiple tokens, the virus with the most tokens will successfully occupy it.
As token holders, each virus has its own chat room, and the virus that the address holds the most tokens of is the main one. For example, if the holder has the most SARS tokens, they will be marked as a SARS infected person.
Each virus also has its own super-spreaders, defined as the addresses that hold the most of that token and have infected (sent tokens to) the most people. The top three infectors for each token are the super-spreaders.
Additionally, Infected has a first-time referral fee mechanism, which is essentially turning the familiar Taiwan market rebate into active promotion. Infecting an address that has never been infected will allow that address to share in the transaction fees of all virus tokens going forward.
Remember the daily reports on confirmed cases and new cases during the pandemic? Infected also has this feature, and the author guesses that if the game's popularity is maintained, a pandemic-themed prediction market may also appear.
1.5% of each transaction fee will be added to the prize pool, and at the end of the one-week game period, the winning virus will receive 66% of the prize pool for token buyback and destruction. The super-spreaders will receive 17%, 10%, and 7% of the prize, respectively.
The author recalls that this game may directly lead to an increase in Base chain transaction fees, and due to the blob design issue, the transaction fees of other Layer 2 public chains using blobs may also rise accordingly.
