Yua Mikami launches her official Solana-based memecoin, MIKAMI, sparking attention and controversy. Here’s what we know about its tokenomics, roadmap, and early-stage risks.

WHAT IS $MIKAMI?

Japanese celebrity Yua Mikami made waves in the crypto space once again after attending the Consensus conference in Hong Kong this past February. In April, she officially announced the launch of her memecoin, MIKAMI, built on the Solana blockchain.

According to the official MIKAMI website, $MIKAMI is meant to represent support and participation in the ideals and creative vision associated with the MIKAMI symbol and related artwork. The project explicitly states that $MIKAMI is not intended to be an investment vehicle, security, or any kind of financial contract.

The moment we’ve all been waiting for.$Mikami is coming.
Thank you, Yua. 👑 https://t.co/0mYXkJMFiZ

The token’s launch is imminent. The team emphasized that the only valid wallet address will be published directly by Yua Mikami herself on April 30. Only SOL sent to the wallet announced by her will be considered valid. Any wallets shared elsewhere, especially those claiming early access, are likely scams and will not be honored.

It’s also important to note that MIKAMI will not be marketed or sold to users in Japan, in compliance with local regulatory restrictions.

📌 What Are the Benefits of Holding $MIKAMI?

According to the roadmap, $MIKAMI holders will gain access to exclusive experiences and perks within the project’s expanding ecosystem. One such feature is the Mikami Shrine, a planned interactive hub where fans can engage with content and participate in themed events.

In addition, holders will be eligible for airdrops of exclusive Yua Mikami merchandise, with potential priority access to purchase future collectibles and limited-edition items.

Another major benefit is access to the project’s decentralized governance layer — Mikami DAO. Through the DAO, $MIKAMI holders will be able to vote on key proposals, such as token burn events, community initiatives, and strategic partnerships.

The project also taps into the growing trend of AI agents. In partnership with Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP), the team plans to launch an interactive AI companion built around Yua Mikami’s persona. Token holders will have the opportunity to engage with this AI agent — potentially unlocking monetization features or unique content experiences.

MIKAMI TOKENOMICS

While the total supply of MIKAMI has not yet been disclosed, the official website reveals that 50% of all $MIKAMI tokens are allocated to Yua Mikami herself, with the allocation locked until the year 2069. This long-term lock-up signals a strong commitment to the project’s longevity.

🔍 The current token distribution is as follows:

• 50% allocated to Yua Mikami (locked until 2069)

• 5% reserved for marketing

• 10% for community initiatives

• 15% for liquidity provisioning

• 20% allocated for presale

This distribution model emphasizes creator alignment while ensuring enough flexibility for community growth, engagement, and ecosystem development.

MIKAMI ROADMAP

The official MIKAMI roadmap is divided into four key phases, each gradually expanding the project’s utility and reach:

✅ Phase 1 

kicks off with the launch of the $MIKAMI token, the formation of its early community on platforms like Telegram and X (formerly Twitter), and the opening of a liquidity pool on decentralized exchanges (DEXs).

✅ Phase 2 

introduces token-powered fan engagement tools, including the launch of the official “Mikami Shrine”, interactive giveaways, meme competitions, and strategic marketing campaigns to deepen community participation.

✅ Phase 3 

moves the project beyond digital spaces by integrating real-world merchandise such as signed posters and collectibles. It will also focus on large-scale collaborations across Asian markets and anime fan communities, along with the first $MIKAMI token burn event.

✅ Phase 4 

will see the creation of Mikami DAO, empowering $MIKAMI holders to vote on future partnerships and events. Planned initiatives include the launch of an AI-based “MCP” virtual agent, global fan meetups or livestream concerts, interactive AI engagement, and monetization opportunities.

IS MIKAMI A SCAM? WHAT WE KNOW SO FAR

Yua Mikami is no stranger to the spotlight. As a former member of the idol group SKE48, and a prominent figure in Ebisu Muscats and Honey Popcorn, she has appeared in everything from major music acts to the popular video game Yakuza 6. In 2021, she successfully launched her own NFT collection called “your NFT,” which featured just 28 pieces and saw individual tokens sell for as much as $24,000 USD.

Now in 2025, following her appearance at a major Hong Kong crypto event, she’s introduced her very own memecoin — MIKAMI. But despite the fanfare, some skepticism remains.

Several community members and analysts have raised concerns. One pointed out that MIKAMI’s tokenomics closely resemble a so-called “4-phase extraction model” used by a known rug-pull project from 2024 — the only major difference being the branding swap from anime avatars to glamour imagery.

That said, as of now, there is no concrete evidence confirming that MIKAMI is a scam. The project is still in its early stages, and many details — including full transparency on liquidity, smart contract audits, or long-term development — have yet to be revealed.

Importantly, memecoins by nature carry high speculative risk. While they can generate rapid community engagement and hype, they often lack fundamental value or long-term utility. Investors should exercise caution and do thorough research before getting involved.
