(NYAN)

There is no single official token. The most prominent versions are the Solana-based meme coin (NYAN CAT) and the Nyan Heroes gaming token. To avoid "honeypots" or scams, users must verify the contract address against reputable data aggregators and official project channels. Trading through a trusted exchange like LBank can help ensure you are interacting with verified assets that have undergone a vetting process.

Creator involvement is a major point of contention. While some meme projects claim to send royalties to the original artist through embedded on-chain structures, the creator has historically issued warnings regarding IP theft. Investors should research whether a specific project has a verified partnership with the creator or if it is an independent community-led initiative using the public-domain style meme.

Security-conscious investors should check if the liquidity pool is burnt or locked and if the contract has been renounced. For professional projects like Nyan Heroes, users often look for audited contracts from firms like CertiK and check if the developers are "doxxed" with backgrounds at reputable gaming companies. For meme-based versions, using tools like DexScreener to verify liquidity status is a common community recommendation.

Claiming the Nyan Heroes airdrop usually involves converting accumulated "MEOW points" into $NYAN tokens. Eligibility often depends on meeting specific requirements, such as minimum match counts in the game. Users should ensure they have a small amount of SOL in their wallets to cover gas fees for the transaction. Always use the official project portal to avoid phishing links and fraudulent claim sites.

The Nyan Heroes project uses a dual-token system. $NYAN is the primary governance token used for staking rewards, voting on project decisions, and purchasing premium assets like "Guardians" (mechs) or cosmetics. $CTNP, on the other hand, serves as the in-game utility and stable token for ecosystem transactions. This structure separates the long-term governance value from the active in-game economy.

While these tokens are available on various decentralized platforms, low liquidity can often lead to high slippage requirements, sometimes reaching 5%–12%. To avoid these technical difficulties and ensure smoother execution, it is recommended to trade on a Tier 1 exchange like LBank. Trading on a centralized exchange provides better liquidity and a more user-friendly experience compared to managing complex slippage settings on decentralized protocols.
