Гаманець для Shark Cat

What is Shark Cat (SC)?

A cat in a shark costume, turned into a token: that is Shark Cat, ticker SC. There is no product, no protocol underneath and no treasury mechanic. The whole thing is a community that keeps the joke going, with organisers spread across countries and time zones. For a holder that means the only things worth understanding are technical: where the token lives and how it moves.

Its home is Solana, where it began as a pump.fun launch. Tokens launched that way share one template: the full supply is minted at once, and the mint and freeze authorities are revoked, so nobody can print more SC later or lock a holder's balance. Beyond that, SC is an ordinary SPL token with the usual Solana routine. The first time SC arrives at an address, a token account is created for it and a small amount of SOL is locked as rent for that account. Every transfer is paid in SOL, so an address that holds SC but no SOL cannot move the tokens until some SOL is sent to it.

A version of SC also circulates on Base, an EVM network. There it behaves like any ERC-20 and fees are paid in ETH. The Solana and Base balances are unrelated: tokens on one chain do not appear on the other, and moving between them requires a bridge, not a plain transfer. Add to that a two-letter ticker that other projects have also used, and the sensible habit is to identify the asset by its network and contract rather than by the letters SC.

In the Tangem app the two versions appear as two separate entries, one under Solana and one under Base, each with its own balance, and the outgoing network is shown on screen before the card is tapped to sign. Holding SC in a wallet that keeps its two homes visibly apart is the practical way to live with that split.
