Some stories don’t start with a whitepaper or a roadmap.
They start with a smirk.
In 2019, before Qubic was even a mainnet, Sergey—Qubic’s founder—posted a playful tweet. His avatar had been fused with the legendary Trollface meme, a little inside joke born in the IOTA Slack community. It wasn’t meant to be revolutionary, just funny. But that image? It stuck.

A Meme That Became Culture
What followed wasn’t orchestrated. The Trollface simply… spread. It showed up in Discord chats, replies on X, and the community’s in-jokes. It became part of the Qubic DNA—recognizable, repeatable, and unshakably ours.
By May 2024, a community member known as Pepito noticed something: this meme wasn’t just a joke anymore—it was a cultural artifact.
So why not immortalize it on-chain?
With the help of developer Qsilver, the first memetoken in the Qubic ecosystem was born: $CFB.
The First Drop
Instead of a traditional sale, $CFB debuted with a full-community airdrop. Every member got a piece of the culture they’d helped create. Sergey himself joined in, not just with words but with his wallet—he holds over 1.5 billion $CFB tokens today.
For him, $CFB isn’t just a token. As he once said, it’s “a telescope/microscope for our minds”—something that lets us see the hidden patterns in the world around us.
Quick Facts About $CFB
- Max Supply: ~420.69 billion tokens
- Distribution: Entirely community-driven airdrop at launch
- Origins: Sparked by Sergey’s Trollface meme tweet in 2019
- Cultural Value: The first meme to become a token in Qubic’s ecosystem
Tokenomics: Supply, Market, and Trading
Today, CFB Token lives not just as a meme, but as a real market asset.
- Total Supply: 420.69B $CFB
- Circulating Supply: 420.69B $CFB

CFB is currently tradable on SafeTrade under the pair CFB/USDT. Liquidity may be modest, but the token is alive and kicking on the open market—a clear evolution from community meme to a listed crypto asset.
Why $CFB Matters
It’s easy to call $CFB “just a meme token.” But that misses the point.
This isn’t a copy-paste joke from the internet—it’s a living piece of Qubic’s history. It represents:
- Our community’s humor
- The culture we’ve built together
- The ability to turn shared identity into something permanent on-chain
Every $CFB token in circulation is a reminder of where we started, how far we’ve come, and the fact that not all value is born from code—sometimes, it’s born from connection.
$CFB didn’t just put a meme on the blockchain.
It turned a grin into a legacy.
Sources and Community Voice
Much of what we know about $CFB comes from the official $CFB Token account on X, and from the Qubic community itself.
That’s where the story continues to grow, shaped daily by memes, jokes, discussions, and creativity.
Because at the end of the day, $CFB isn’t just a token you hold in a wallet.
It’s a story you share with the people who built it with you.
