What is ICCM?

Internet & Creator Capital Markets (ICCM) are reshaping how startups, research projects, cultural movements, and digital products are launched and funded.

By tokenizing ideas and enabling global participation, ICCM replaces slow venture cycles with open, onchain markets where culture = capital.

Why Base?

• Distribution power: Farcaster, X, Zora, Base App.
• Cultural hub: Coinbase Onchain Summer.• Infrastructure: fast, cheap, scalable.
• Narrative leadership: Base can outpace other L1s by blending ICM, Creator Economy, and SocialFi.

Challenges for Founders

• Steep learning curve: tokenomics, FDV, treasury strategy.
• Reputation gap: Web2 founders lack onchain credibility.
• Amateur mistakes: poor token design, failed launches.
• Exit slowdown: SaaS/Web2 founders want liquidity faster.
• Cultural friction: crypto-native distribution feels alien.
