MemeCon Meetup Explores the Future of Meme Monetization and Community-Led Innovation

In a forward-thinking panel discussion entitled "Meme Monetization in 2026: NFTs, Tokens, and Beyond" at the event, the role of meme-driven projects in unlocking novel revenue streams and engagement strategies in a decentralized space was discussed. Hadir Gaber, the founder and CEO of ChainMena, shared tips on the best ways to launch successful meme-driven communities and NFTs for creating sustained value in the space. SINT founder Illia Pashkov also discussed the development applications of meme tokens and digital collectibles, pushing past mere speculation.

The discussion, which was led by Oleh Bevz, co-founder of INPUT Global, focused on practical uses, new trends, and finding a balance between sustainability and creativity. The panel highlighted that with more and more people adopting Web3 globally, memes are increasingly being leveraged as powerful instruments of storytelling and decentralized monetization.

"Stories that Inspire Action," an open mic event where the audience got an opportunity to introduce themselves to the gathering and share their experiences, ideas, and projects, was the next topic to be discussed. Because of this type of event, the audience got to connect through shared experiences and have their voices heard.

The open mic was a breeding ground for organic collaboration and inspiration that reinforced the need for engagement, creativity, and collective ownership in meme culture. Ideas were actively shared for feedback or for potential collaboration that happened in a dynamic but collaborative space.

The event enabled a community-oriented experience that built on strategic insights coupled with community-level storytelling. Through the lens of memes that turn a profit, economies for content creators, and community-led innovation, the meetup underscored the increasing power of memes to represent a serious force in the future of the Web3 landscape.
