1. Targets developers whose projects have 'gone viral'
2. Nudges them to adopt the newly created "token" they are pumping
3. Harasses them if they don't go along with the narrative (https://x.com/steipete/status/2016073406840476131).
More research on this nascent phenomenon is needed, which differs from ICOs and NFTs in that the token is forced upon the creator who has no say in the matter.
