now its a private telegram group.
DegenVC
A memecoin collective of thirty-odd degens that started in 2021 as a tight friendship around Secret Network and kept going, shipping projects mostly on Solana. Its known launches include Doge-flavoured and Krok tokens and the OKX Intern coin. Less a fund than a group chat with a deploy button, which is what VC means here.

I remember when it was a Secret Network telegram with a dozen people arguing about privacy coins. Five years on the same names are still there. That is rarer than any chart.

Seen this week: the OKX Intern token, a DegenVC launch, sitting near the top of the Solana trending tab for a day. Doge and Krok before it. Same crew, same chat, different animal.

The VC stands for nothing you would find on a term sheet. It is thirty people who met on Secret Network in 2021, trusted each other through a bear market, and now launch coins together on Solana. The trust is the product.
