~* THE SPECULATION CIRCUS *~

| About |
Close [X]

Bogus is a collective of care-free individuals who fully embrace the absurdity of crypto — and of the world. $BOGUS, the community’s token, does not promise utility, or to change the future, or to save the world. Instead, $BOGUS revels in the idea that all memecoins, all of crypto, really everything in life, is, well... bogus.

# BOGUS COPYLEFT POLICY
Last Updated: October 31, 2024

## Philosophy
We believe in the power of shared absurdity. Everything we create at Speculation Circus is meant to be shared, remixed, and experimentally deployed into the wild. This policy ensures our work remains free (as in freedom) while preserving its satirical essence.

## License Terms

Are released under a combination of MIT License and Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License (CC BY-SA 4.0), with the following additional conditions:

1. **The Satirical Clause**: Any derivative works must maintain the satirical spirit of the original. You can't make it serious - that defeats the purpose.

2. **The "WAGMI" Provision**: All derivative works must acknowledge that We're All Gonna Make It (WAGMI), even if we're not sure where we're going.

3. **The Experimental Understanding**: These works are experimental. They might break things. That's part of the fun. No warranty provided or implied.

### You are free to:
- Copy, modify, and distribute our code
- Remix our branding

3. **Transparency**: You must:
   - Clearly mark all derivatives as experimental
