"trull." — a face that has been in the JPEG compressor 42 times and still has opinions

A 2008 troll face was kidnapped, run through fourteen group-chat reposts, screen-shotted off a Vine archive, traced over by hand at 2 a.m., and printed onto a coffee-stained napkin. The face that came back is no longer a troll. It is a trull. It does not laugh at you. It is too tired.

$TRULL is the patron saint of "yeah, whatever." A coin for memes that have lost their original creator, their original caption, their original context, and most of their pixels — but somehow are still here.

"

I asked him for advice. He squinted, sagged a bit, and said "trull." I felt seen.

How to Buy, in four crooked panels.

Read left to right. The face will not.

1
WALLET ⌬ install phantom!
Install Phantom (or Solflare, or Backpack — Trull does not check your reasoning). Write down the seed phrase. Misplace it once and the laugh is yours forever.
2
SOL ◐ load some sol!
Get $SOL into the wallet. Buy in-app, transfer from another wallet, withdraw from a CEX. Five bucks is enough; more makes the face slightly straighter.
3
JUPITER ↻ paste the CA!
Open jup.ag. Paste the $TRULL contract from the masthead. Confirm token. Sign the txn. Trull blinks slowly.
4
SWAP ✕ trull.
Swap. The bag is yours. The face is yours. The face was always yours; you just hadn't met it.
TRULL.
TRULL.

When Trull reads the timeline.

"is this art?"— a guy who paid $19 for the pen tool
"this is bad on purpose"— exactly. that is the whole job.
"i could draw this"— please. that's literally the offer.
"why does it look weird"— that's how he looks now
"is the original trollface ok"— he's resting. trull is filling in.
"will this pump"— trull.
