Rare Presidents
Rare Presidents is a dynamic cryptoart and meme coin project designed to predict the outcome of the 2024 US Presidential Election using the power of memes. By highlighting the power of blockchain technology, making charitable contributions, and providing cultural commentary via cryptoart, we aim to make crypto-friendly legislation a key issue for both presidential candidates. But always remember, at the end of the day, these are memes - Wield their power accordingly.
Rare Trumps
Rare Kamalas
Introducing 10,000 Rare Trumps and 10,000 Rare Kamalas - Two FREE TO MINT NFT collections in 33 unique stylized sets. The initial art is pre-reveal, art randomly reveals in small batches leading up to the election, and NFT Holders will have the option to burn their NFTs for 420 of their respective tokens at the time of the art reveal. NFT holders will form a DAO to vote on charitable contributions from the respective project's proceeds. The default images begin as portraits of TRUMP and BIDEN but, due to Kamala Harris' recent nomination, Rare Bidens will now reveal an image of Kamala Harris.
$REP & $DEM
The tokenomics of $REP and $DEM are identical with a maximum supply of 69,000,000 tokens available on Uniswap. This means the candidate with the higher token price leads the race and is the favored election candidate. Holding the coin serves as a predictor of who you think will win - Not necessarily which candidate you support. So enjoy the race, remember these are memes at their core, and let's see which coin comes out on top!
HOW IT WORKS
The meme coins and NFTs launch simultaneously with the NFTs being a FREE MINT. A 1% royalty is applied to the trading of tokens, allowing revenue generation without reserving any NFTs or tokens for the team. A significant portion of the project's net proceeds will be donated to a charitable cause chosen by NFT holders on Election Day. NFT holders will gradually be able to burn their NFTs to claim their tokens as the art reveals leading up to the election. Join us in this mission and help elevate the American crypto industry through the power of memes.

How do I claim my tokens as an NFT holder?
After your NFT's art is revealed, you can burn it by depositing it into a smart contract via the Rare Presidents website. For each NFT burned you'll receive 420 tokens, $REP or $DEM, depending on the NFT collection. This feature will be available until November 11th, 2024.
When will the NFT art be revealed?
The NFT art will be revealed in random batches of 303 NFTs every day leading up to the election starting on September 1st. As each batch is revealed, those NFT holders become eligible to claim their tokens by depositing their NFTs.
How is the project funded?
The project implements a 1% royalty fee on token transfers which supports its sustainability and charitable initiatives. This structure allows us to avoid reserving tokens for the team and ensure all proceeds directly benefit each project, its community and charitable contributions. A significant portion of these fees will fund charitable donations, as voted on by the community on Election Day. The remaining funds support essential project operations, including marketing, development, and staffing. This model aligns the project's success with that of its holders, as the team's incentives are directly tied to the project's long-term health and growth, without reserving ANY tokens for the team.
How are tokens distributed?
The $REP and $DEM tokens each have a total supply of 69,000,000.
The token minting distribution is as follows:
• 42,000,000 tokens (≈ 60.9%) are available in the Liquidity Pool at launch.
• 4,200,000 tokens (≈ 6.09%) are reserved for NFT holders, claimable by staking NFTs after they're revealed.
• 4,200,000 tokens (≈ 6.09%) are held for potential future exchange listings.
• 18,600,000 tokens (≈ 27%) are reserved for adding additional liquidity and token burning. These are held in a smart contract that CANNOT withdraw or sell tokens. The only functions available in this contract are ADD LIQUIDITY and BURN TOKENS.
• No tokens are reserved for the team.
NFT holders can claim 420 tokens per NFT they stake after their NFT's art is revealed. This staking process allows for a fair and gradual distribution of tokens to community members.
What happens if Trump or Biden doesn't get the nomination?
If either candidate doesn't receive their party's nomination, the art and NFT collection will be updated shortly after with images of the newly nominated candidate, maintaining the same art style. Due to Kamala Harris' nomination, Rare Bidens will now reveal an image of Harris.
How can I participate in voting?
NFT holders who did not burn their NFT by Election Day can participate in DAO voting through Discord using Collab Land and Snapshot. Open the side menu to see our official links!
