History of KEKO
Kekobank manages KEKO, the token that unites the community of people who feel true love and respect for traditional financial institutions.
Origins in Counterparty. 69M KEKOs were initially created in Counterparty on april 14th 2022.They were originally pegged to the Satoshi (one 100 millionth of a BTC), but they soon lost the peg due to intensive use across the community.
Migration to Ethereum. One year later, 69M KEKOs were minted on Ethereum to continue with the original vision of the token: to become an emblem of finance.
These 69M KEKOs were ERC1155 tokens. NFTs showcasing the spinning golden coin that identifies Kekobank across the universe.
Counterparty KEKO holders were able to claim KEKOs through a Proof of Destruction mechanism. They needed to destroy the amount of tokens they wish to claim using their Counterparty wallet, and add the destination Ethereum address in the Memo section of the transaction.
Unclaimed KEKOs were incorporated to Kekobank's treasury in response to macroeconomic challenges in March 2023.
The $KEKO coin.On April 2023, Kekobank launched $KEKO, an ERC20 token with a 1:1 equivalence with the ERC1155 version. The $KEKO coin offers Kekobank customers new features thanks to the fungible, divisible and interoperable nature of ERC20 tokens.
