Dares and Memes
When you launch a token on Kumbaya you pick one of two types: Meme or Dare. They use the same underlying launchpad contracts, but they're meant to host different kinds of launches and they get different visual treatment in the UI.
Memes
A Meme launch is the open-ended one. The prompt is usually a vibe, an inside joke, or a piece of culture you want to rally around. Threads on meme tokens tend to be image-heavy.
Use Meme if:
You want a launch that's fun, playful, or community-driven.
The prompt is more "what is this thing?" than "do this specific thing".
Dares
A Dare is a community challenge with a token attached. The prompt is action-oriented - "do X and post evidence in the thread" - and the token's value is tied to the community deciding the dare was completed.
Use Dare if:
Your prompt asks people to do something specific.
The token is going to act as a stake or a reward for someone completing the challenge.
You want the visual treatment that signals "this is a contest, not just a vibe".
What's actually different between them?
The visual treatment - color theming, badges, and how the token shows up in feeds.
Which feed it appears in - Memes and Dares each have their own feed plus the unified All/Trending feed.
Tone of comment threads - Memes tend to skew creative; Dares skew toward proof-of-completion posts.
Everything protocol-side is identical: same bonding curve, same graduation behavior, same fee mechanics, same creator earnings. The choice is editorial, not technical.
