A Peer-to-Peer Currency for Creators, Culture, and Digital Freedom

Break free from platform control and rediscover the original promise of the internet — where people, not middlemen, own value and expression.

Buckazoid ($bz) is a digital currency designed for fans, creators, merchants, and communities who want fast, private, and meaningful transactions without intermediaries.  Inspired by the 1991 currency from Space Quest, built on Solana's lightning-fast blockchain, and guided by community whitepapers that explore commerce, history, and sovereignty — Buckazoid is a living experiment in freedom, art, and real ownership.

Why Buckazoid?  Why Now?

The internet is flooded with tools for "monetization" — but they all extract. Platforms gatekeep audiences, skim tips, throttle reach, and trap creators in surveillance-based business models.

Buckazoid solves this with a clean, peer-to-peer currency:

Speed: Finality in under a second. Ideal for tipping creators or transacting with fans.

Tiny Fees: $bz moves at near-zero cost — 1000x cheaper than Ethereum and frictionless for micro-use.

Privacy by Default: No personal info, no algorithms, no shadow profiles.

Fixed Supply: Only 1 billion $bz will ever exist. No presale, no VC allocations, no team tokens.

Trustless Infrastructure: Built on audited code, with open tools like Phantom wallet and Solana Pay integration.

Cultural Anchors: The name, symbol, and ethos are rooted in computing history and culture — not hype.

Unlike stablecoins (which peg to inflationary fiat) or speculative coins with opaque mechanics, $bz is engineered for both utility and as a cultural store of value.  Every transaction is both usable now and part of a bigger networked economy of support, creativity and cognitive liberty.

What Can You Do with Buckazoid?

🧑�🎨 Creators & Artists

Receive instant, uncensored support directly from fans. Monetize your stream, post, or art without fees or friction.  Replace patronage platforms with a sovereign tipping economy — one that scales naturally and respects your autonomy.

🤝 Fans & Collectors

Tip creators the moment you're moved.  Collect, gift, or stack $bz like digital thank-yous.  Every tip or creator payment is a visible show of support — and part of a cultural record.

🛍� Merchants & Businesses

Accept $bz with simple point-of-sale tools and nearly zero fees. Build real connections with your customers.  You don't rent your storefront — you own it.

🧑�💻 Builders & Developers

Integrate $bz into apps, games, or social tools.  Use it to unlock access, reward actions, or form micro-economies that aren't dependent on legacy finance.

Why $bz Is Built to Be Used, and Trusted

Fixed Supply (1B): What you own now is a slice of the total economic system — forever.

No Presale, No Team Allocation: The community earns just like everyone else — by building, creating, and transacting.

Proof of Support, Not Proof of Stake: Buckazoid's real "validators" are those who use it to tip, gift, and transact. This human activity gives it meaning and resilience.

Decentralization Through Use: The network becomes stronger not just by code, but by culture — as more creators, merchants, and fans transact directly.

Collector Culture: $bz tip receipts are collectible and meaningful in their own right — timestamps of support, identity, and participation.

Holding, tipping and transacting $bz isn't about speculating.  It's aligning with a long-term vision: an economy where people — not platforms and paywalls — decide what has value.

How to Get Started

🔑 Step 1: Create Your Wallet

Install a wallet like Phantom or Backpack. It takes seconds. No KYC. No signup. You hold your own keys — just as it should be.

💸 Step 2: Get Buckazoid $bz

Buy from trusted Solana-based exchanges.  The supply is fixed and fair — there is no central entity pulling strings.Contract Address: HCMa54YQ4YKAhHrZ9ngo3SUkAs2uSLKbo4gf82pSpump

🚀 Step 3: Use It Immediately

Tip a creator. Send a friend a token of thanks. Set a price in $bz for your art, music, or merch.  Every interaction adds gravity to the network.

🌐 Step 4: Join the Conversation

BuckazoidTalk.org is our home base — a forum for creators, holders, developers, and thinkers.  Off-platform, ad-free, and community-moderated.

More Than a Currency — A Movement

Buckazoid is a refusal to be passive.  It's a tool for those who want to build parallel economies — ones based on consent, contribution, and creativity.  It's a protest against extractive systems and a nod to the future we could be living in.

It's also home to a living archive — preserving early digital culture (like Space Quest, the history of Bitcoin and counterculture), debunking false origin myths, and reclaiming symbols that matter.

Bitcoin broke ground by decentralizing money itself.  Buckazoid builds on this foundation by decentralizing how culture, creativity, and community transact value — focusing on speed, privacy, and direct connection.

By harnessing these principles with accessible technology, strong community infrastructure, and a clear vision for sustainable economies, Buckazoid is positioned to become the native currency of the creator era — unlocking mass adoption and reshaping digital culture for years to come.

This is your chance to be part of a project built from the ground up for the next wave of decentralized culture and commerce.

When you send $bz, you're not just sending value — you're recording belief, recognition, and intent.  That's the heart of the project.

Metalogic / Buckazoidtalk.org: What If You...
Last post by SkyDex - Jul 28, 2025, 09:05 AM
What If Your Crypto Community Vanished Tomorrow?

Imagine waking up to find your project's Discord banned, your X account banned, suspended or throttled, or your Telegram group hacked or drowned in spam. This isn't hypothetical — it's the reality of building on rented platforms. Buckazoid rejects that.

Here's why we built BuckazoidTalk.org, and why you should join us.

1. The Problem with Platforms

The early web was a playground of sovereign communities — forums, homepages, and message boards where ideas thrived without corporate gatekeepers. Today, crypto projects cram into Discord, Telegram, or X, where algorithms, bans, blackouts and PAID verification dictate visibility and reach. That's not freedom. It's fragility.

2. Why BuckazoidTalk.org?

Buckazoid isn't just a cryptocurrency — it's a movement for financial and cultural sovereignty. Centralized platforms undermine that. So we built BuckazoidTalk.org, a decentralized forum where our community owns the space. No algorithms. No ads. No bans. Just a persistent hub for memes, research, coordination, and ideas — built by and for the community.

3. Old Tech, New Power


Forums aren't flashy, but they're bulletproof. Inspired by bitcointalk.org, created by Satoshi Nakamoto to foster Bitcoin's early vision, BuckazoidTalk.org carries that torch. As part of our mission to date has been to preserve crypto's culture and debunk lies about Bitcoin's heritage by other projects, we offer:

Open Moderation: Community-driven, transparent rules, not top-down censorship.

No Bots, No Noise: Strict anti-spam measures for signal over chaos.

Permanent Archive: Ideas and discussions preserved, not lost to platform purges.

This isn't nostalgia — it's infrastructure for a decentralized future.

4. Future-Proof by Design

In an era of surveillance and monetized attention, BuckazoidTalk.org is a refuge. It's where we build trust, share research, and coordinate without interference. We don't rent our home — we own it, just like our wallets.

5. Bigger Than a Coin

Buckazoid is more than trading — it's a movement to empower a peer-to-peer internet: open, expressive, and free. With Buckazoid, we're building a creator-driven ecosystem where freethinkers, writers, gamers, streamers, musicians, and individuals can thrive. Our platform enables direct tipping, creator-driven payments, and community support, cutting out middlemen and giving power back to the people. BuckazoidTalk.org is the hub for this vision, where ideas spark, collaborations form, and creators connect without gatekeepers.

It's live now, and registration is open. Whether you're a builder, believer, or just curious, come shape the future with us.

Chris Loverme aka "Cloverme" was a "Legendary" member of Satoshi Nakamoto's Bitcointalk.org forum and his career is also the stuff of legends.  As you are about to learn, Chris was VERY heavily influenced by Space Quest and Sierra Games and he regularly interacted with Sierra developers on IRC in his youth, networking connections that profoundly helped to shape the course of his career.




Chris "Cloverme" LoVerme is a former NASA engineer who worked at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) on critical space exploration missions, including the Cassini mission to Saturn, the Mars Rover projects (likely Spirit and Opportunity), and the Stardust mission to collect comet samples.

LoVerme's technical expertise, honed at JPL, fueled his blockchain gaming ventures like "Age of Rust" that is still very popular to this day!

"Age of Rust is a blockchain, dark sci-fi action adventure game set in the vast expanse of the universe and uses the Enjin protocol on the Etherium blockchain. After launching in 2021, the developers announced that 24 Bitcoin and 370,000 Engin Coin were hidden inside of the game. 

His creation, BitcoinStarter.com, pioneered Bitcoin-based crowdfunding, fueling crypto innovation, while SpacePirate, a sci-fi RPG, boldly explored cryptocurrency's role in gaming.

As a Legendary Member of Bitcointalk.org, he shaped Bitcoin's community through insightful posts, championing its technical and economic potential.

Here is Chris "Cloverme" LoVerme on bitcointalk.org:



In 2017, Cloverme posted an announcement for his upcoming video game and attached a quote from game developer, novelist, and artist Roberta Williams, the wife of Sierra On-Line founder Ken Williams.  (but that's just the beginning)



(source: "Cloverme" post on bitcointalk.org, founded by Satoshi Nakamoto)

LoVerme in a 2019 interview with Kriptomat (link here), expressed the impression that "Sierra Games", Space Quest" and "Kings Quest" had on his childhood and early gaming experiences.



In the attached 2022 interview with Ben Gothard, LoVerme discusses interacting with Sierra Games developers on IRC and networking his way into the gaming industry through contacts that he made on that platform.  (time stamped at link)


Some of his contributions to the Bitcoin ecosystem include:

Economics of $bz / Proof of Support: The Missing ...

Proof of Support: The Missing Layer in Peer-to-Peer Value

Buckazoid ($bz) is a digital currency built for fast, frictionless exchange—but its foundation isn't just technical. It's cultural, historical, and economic. While it runs on Solana's Proof of History, Buckazoid introduces a second layer of validation: Proof of Support

What is Proof of Support?

Proof of Support is not a consensus mechanism in the traditional sense. It's an ethos. A conceptual operating layer that reflects the true activity and relevance of a peer-to-peer currency. It isn't about mining blocks or staking nodes—it's about circulating value through real use. Every tip, trade, meme, or merchant transaction using $bz contributes to its proof. Proof that it's not just held, but used. Proof that it's alive. It's the idea that value doesn't only come from scarcity or hype—it comes from use, motion, and belief.

How It Works in Practice

Support is recorded through: tipping and payments across creator platforms; peer-to-peer exchange between communities; microcommerce in digital media, streaming, and open culture; acceptance by merchants who believe in the ethos; cultural persistence in memes, collectibles, games, and lore. Every wallet that sends $bz is as important as one that holds it. Because movement is proof. Exchange is belief. Circulation is conviction.

Why It Matters

Most digital assets are defined by price and narrative cycles. That's not a flaw—it's how markets operate. But Buckazoid doesn't fight that system. It builds on it. Where some tokens are measured by speculation alone, $bz builds reputation through participation. Not as a replacement, but as a second signal—one that can't be spoofed.

Price tells us what something is worth today. Support tells us whether it'll still be here tomorrow.

Why People Buy Buckazoid

Fast, low-cost transfers on a proven chain (Solana); a fixed 1B supply—no presale, no VC, no tax, no treasury; a cultural artifact inspired by early internet, gaming, and cypherpunk history; a cultural store of value born through motion, use, and memetic gravity; a future-forward project that builds network effects through art, content, commerce, and creators.

This Isn't Just for Tipping

While Buckazoid can find early traction through creator economies, tipping is just one small thread. The real vision is broader: a currency for culture, speed, and open exchange. Whether for artists, merchants, streamers, collectors, gamers, or memecoin degens—Buckazoid is designed for peer-to-peer trade at the edge of the network. Where memes meet markets. Where history meets velocity. Where value flows not just up—but across.

Final Word

Proof of Support is the hidden engine. The real network effect. The currency of circulation. And while speculation fuels the spark, support fuels the fire.

👏 👏 Tipping and accepting $bz is great! To help out with this effort I took the image you shared with the BZ Telegram Group and added a generator to my platform so anyone can easily insert their Solana Address and have a custom $bz QR graphic generated that can be saved or inserted around the internet!

Check out my signature for example 😎

Code below to use in your own signature here, or the url to use to generate yours! You can also specify a "height" and the image will scale appropriately

Tipping: The Creator Economy and the Rise of Direct Value Transfer
Buckazoid and the Future of Creator Sovereignty

I just published a piece on Substack called "Tipping: The Creator Economy and the Rise of Direct Value Transfer".  It's about how the internet is quietly shifting away from platform-controlled monetization toward something simpler and more human — direct tipping. No subscriptions, no algorithms, no gatekeepers.  Just presence, appreciation, and value exchanged directly between people.

In the piece, I talk about why tipping matters — not just as a payment method, but as a cultural gesture — and how tools like Buckazoid ($bz) can help reclaim that kind of direct support in a noisy, centralized world.  It's not just about funding creators — it's about rebuilding the internet from the edges, one intentional transaction at a time.

Take some time to do your own research and you might just fall in love with this project the way I did. Buckazoid $bz, isn't just a memecoin, it's a tribute to gaming history. Originally the currency used in the legendary game Space Quest IV, $bz is now being reborn as a digital asset with a story that sets it apart from the rest.

Through genuine investigative research and journalism, they are uncovering factual links between Space Quest and the early pioneers of Bitcoin.

This is a project with a narrative like no other.

Right now, #Buckazoid might still be flying under the radar for most of the world, but that won't last long. If you are someone who wants to be part of something with meaning, culture and potential, consider this your invitation.

The future is bright and it's powered by $bz.

Whitepaper: Exposing the Buckazoids Myth: A Definitive Defense of Bitcoin's True Origins

"Exposing the "Buckazoids" Myth: A Definitive Defense of Bitcoin's True Origins", is a white paper that sets the record straight on Bitcoin's cryptographic roots and dismantles a misleading narrative linking it to the fictional in game Buckazoid currency" from Space Quest IV. Sparked by a March 2025 Reddit post and amplified by speculative X campaigns, the misnamed "Buckazoids" token theory falsely claims Bitcoin's iconic "₿" symbol and origins stem from a 1991 video game. This paper rigorously refutes these claims, exposing their reliance on logical fallacies, historical inaccuracies, and nostalgia-driven hype.

Rooted in primary sources—Satoshi Nakamoto's 2008 white paper, BitcoinTalk archives, and Sierra On-Line documentation—this paper reaffirms Bitcoin's foundation in cypherpunk innovation, from Hashcash to B-money. We clarify the "₿" symbol's evolution through community consensus, debunk fabricated ties to game developers, and highlight the ethical risks of exploiting figures like Hal Finney for memecoin promotion. As part of our Cultural Preservation Utility (CPU), the Buckazoid community is committed to safeguarding Bitcoin's history through education, engagement, and ethics.

Join us in countering misinformation and preserving the true story of decentralized finance. Read the full white paper and share your thoughts on how we can protect Bitcoin's legacy from revisionist myths. Let's keep the crypto space grounded in truth and transparency!

Sierra On-line, Space Quest and the Rise of the Home PC: 10 Ways It Redefined Computing as Entertainment

In 1986, the IBM PC hums with a 5.25-inch floppy spinning in its drive as Space Quest I: The Sarien Encounter flickers onto the CRT monitor. You're Roger Wilco, a bumbling space janitor wandering through a ridiculous sci-fi universe. Back then, personal computers were still shaking off their "just for work" label, and Space Quest played a surprisingly large role in that transformation. It showed how PCs could be more than spreadsheets and databases—they could be fun. With each new installment pushing technical limits, players had to upgrade just to keep up.

Here are 10 ways Space Quest Redefined Computing as Entertainment:
