Speaking of the Little Monk Yi Chan, you must have come across his internet memes, right? This little shaven head has 40 million fans across the internet, with likes surpassing 340 million, and the internet memes are everywhere.

Many people may not realize that this kind of IP with a national presence is actually quite suitable for making internet memes—after all, internet memes are all about consensus and cultural identity. A Zen image like this, which is rooted in the local culture and has high recognition, naturally has a mass base.

Compared to those imported products, our own cultural symbols actually have more potential for dissemination. Do you think these kinds of internet memes with a Chinese flavor could create some waves in the community?

The Yizhan Na internet memes are indeed impressive, but what really drives the community has to rely on creative players.

I have to say about this topic of Yizhan, the local memes are indeed powerful, but the question is, will anyone actively spread them? Or will it just be a case of blowing up on Xiaohongshu?

tbh the tokenomics of cultural memes still confuse me more than yield farming protocols... but hear me out—if we model this through liquidity pool mechanics, indigenous IP literally has higher TVL potential than imported narratives, no cap. the consensus mechanism here is *chef's kiss* algorithmically pure. wondering if we can somehow transmute 4000M followers into sustainable governance tokens 👀

Yichan's emergence into the meme space indeed has potential, but the key still lies in who operates it. To be honest, local cultural symbols transformed into memes are more likely to be quickly consumed. This operation feels like putting a Web3 shell on traditional culture. Yichan's traffic is indeed strong, but the lifecycle of memes is often very short; how long it can last depends. Domestic cultural IPs making memes? I would like to see if it can truly break the circle.

Yizhan indeed has potential, local cultural symbols are naturally the traffic passwords. Meme culture relies on recognition to survive, this little shaven head has 40 million followers across the internet, the foundation for spreading has long been laid. However, the key still lies in how to play it, don't make it a mindless copy and paste, that would be meaningless. The rise of domestic memes is just around the corner, much better than imported products. Speaking of which, if this were to create a stir in the crypto community, could it create a new narrative perspective... Yizhan little monk doing defi memes? Hilarious, but I don't oppose it. This kind of local IP is the easiest to break the circle of content, the sense of cultural identity is there. It's indeed time to give domestic memes a proper name, after rolling with foreign products for so long. The key is that someone really needs to understand how to play this, right now it's still in a scattered stage. If Yizhan really ignites a meme cultural phenomenon, that would be amazing.

Is Yichan doing memes? To be honest, I'm a bit tempted, but the key still depends on who will take charge. Chinese cultural symbols do have a natural advantage, but whether they can really break the circle still depends on execution. This guy's internet memes are indeed everywhere online, the meme potential is fully pumped up. Imported goods have long been worn out, but our own stuff is instead a blue ocean? Interesting. Yichan has a solid fan base, as long as the marketing is in place, it can really take off. This idea is good, but can the domestic meme community accept it? It still depends on the community's reaction.

It should have been like this for a long time, local memes really have more vitality. This IP from Yizhan can really make an impact, the level of consensus is there. When national style memes take off, it will really be wild, but unfortunately most people have not reacted yet.

This guy Yichan does have a top-tier vibe, but meme-ified? We still can't quite grasp the local jokes in our circle.

This matter really needs some thought; domestic memes breaking the circle are indeed more rooted than imported ones. To be frank, turning local cultural symbols into NFTs is actually more interesting, right? With a fan base of 40 million, the real key is whether it can truly become a Web3 Consensus. Internet memes are popular, but whether they can transform into community stickiness is another matter. There is indeed potential, but it depends on who is in charge of this. Why do I feel that something is not quite right with this idea? Is it just a pile-up of traffic?
