In a market full of dogs and cats, Turbo is unique: it wasn't made by a crypto developer. It was made by ChatGPT.
The $69 Experiment
In 2023, digital artist Rhett Mankind gave GPT-4 a challenge: "Create the next great meme coin with a budget of only $69."
The AI acted as the boss. It:
• Named it: TurboToadToken ($TURBO).
• Designed the mascot: A futuristic toad named "Quantum Leap" (via MidJourney).
• Wrote the code: It generated the smart contract and the whitepaper.
Why It Matters
Turbo is a symbol of decentralized creativity.
• No Insiders: There was no pre-sale or VC funding. The AI suggested a crowdfunding model that let the community own it from Day 1.
• Community Run: The creator renounced ownership of the contract immediately. This means no one can "rug pull" or change the rules—it is 100% run by its holders.
It stands as the first successful proof that you don't need a team of engineers to build a crypto brand; you just need a clever prompt.
