The total supply of MEW tokens is 88.88 billion, with 90% allocated to liquidity pools and the remaining 10% airdropped to the Solana community. All users who purchased the second-generation Solana phone, SAGA2, received this airdrop, valued at half the phone's price. MEW is currently the most discussed and highest-valued cat-themed token.

WEN is a meme token associated with Jupiter, a DeFi aggregation platform on Solana, and its properties stem from the community’s anticipation and desire for potential airdrops.
