Akita (AKITA)

Akita is an OG Ethereum memecoin launched in 2021. At launch, 50% of the token supply was sent to Vitalik Buterin, who later donated those tokens to Gitcoin.

In 2026, Akita migrated to a new contract to address technical and structural issues and build a more sustainable foundation.

Today, Akita is focused on growing the community, building the Akita mascot IP, and aligning with Gitcoin’s “Fund What Matters” ethos.
