qrcoin.fun is the onchain attention machine. They've taken a normally simple QR code and turned it into a powerful tool for directing attention. Every 24 hours, one winner decides where the code points. Whether it is a website, a tweet, a project launch, or anything else online. Built on Base, they've grown into the Times Square of Base! Where anyone building onchain can plug in to boost their traffic. Projects have used it to grow followers, spotlight new features, and kick off campaigns: All by winning a single day’s auction! But qrcoin.fun is more than just a clever idea. It is an ongoing experiment in how attention spreads. You and others can bid together with USDC or a credit card, and every day, people who check the link can claim $QR, the project’s native token. With tens of thousands of Farcaster users already tuning in and logging in daily through its Mini App, qrcoin.fun has quickly grown into a staple project in the Base ecosystem. It is simple, contagious, and community-driven. A new kind of internet billboard that anyone can control and everyone can see!
