Launch Coin ($LAUNCHCOIN) is the platform token of the encryption project incubation platform Believe. The platform was originally named Clout, initially marketed with the proposition of "personal influence tokenization," but after experiencing token zeroing, frontend crashes, and a community trust crisis in its early stages, it underwent a complete restart, rebranding to Believe, and officially transitioned its native token $Pasternak to the platform's core asset Launch Coin. Its positioning has gradually shifted from a "celebrity social platform" to a "Web3 YC," aiming to create a new type of financing platform driven by the community, without the need for traditional VCs, allowing entrepreneurs to directly issue tokens for financing in the market and integrating encryption functionalities into Web2 products.

Platform Transformation: From Clout to Believe

Believe's predecessor Clout was initiated by 25-year-old serial entrepreneur Ben Pasternak, who initially tried to translate the influence of social media accounts into tokens. However, the platform quickly lost popularity in its early days due to complex operations, a single incentive mechanism, and DApp crashes, leading to a significant decline in token prices and the project coming close to death.

Until April 2025, the team announced a full restart and rebranding as Believe, with the slogan upgraded from "Believe in someone" to "Believe in something," emphasizing the iteration of trust mechanisms and platform philosophy.
