Creator fees go to @gootecks via Paid

The original Pog face. Now he gets paid.

A cameraman bumps a tripod in front of a green screen, gootecks makes the face, and chat never recovers. POGchamp ($POG) routes its creator fees to him through Paid, paid out in dollars on X.

Most-used emote in Twitch history

56×56

Pixels. That's the whole emote.

The lore

Over a decade of chat spam traces back to one face on one green screen. Here's how it happened, replayed.

gootecks mid-gasp, cropped like the original emote
  1. 2010

    The blooper

    Mid-shoot for Cross Counter TV with Mike Ross, the cameraman bumps the tripod and gootecks makes the face. The outtake hits YouTube on November 26.

  2. 2011

    The name

    A Cross Counter promo called Pogs Championship has gootecks winning a game of the '90s milk-cap classic. The face plus Pogs Championship: PogChamp.

  3. 2012

    The emote

    Twitch makes PogChamp a global emote: 56 by 56 pixels of pure hype. Clutch play? PogChamp. Total choke? Also PogChamp.

  4. 2017

    The remix

    Chat wants it louder. POGGERS, a frog riff on the face, lands on BetterTTV and spreads to more than 160,000 channels.

  5. 2018

    The sequel

    PogU arrives on FrankerFaceZ: a second frame of gootecks, pulled from the same 2010 outtake.

  6. 2020

    Peak pog

    PogChamp averages over half a million uses a day, spiking past a million, and "my little PogChamp" goes viral.

  7. Now

    The payday

    $POG launches on pump.fun and points its creator fees at the face that started it all. Every trade pays @gootecks.

Chat made him a meme. $POG pays him for it.

Every trade throws off creator fees. On most memecoins they land in a dev wallet you'll never see. Here they're pointed at the original Pog face, and he doesn't have to lift a finger: no sign-up, no wallet. The fees go to his X account either way.

  1. 1

    You trade $POG

    Every buy and sell on pump.fun generates creator fees.

  2. 2

    Fees point at Paid

    The token's creator fees are routed to the Paid treasury, with @gootecks named as the recipient. Nothing for him to set up.

  3. 3

    Paid claims and converts

    Paid claims the fees on-chain, converts them to dollars, and sends them to his X account through X Money.

  4. 4

    Anyone can check

    Payouts are published on Paid's site, so you can see exactly where the fees went.

80%

of claimed creator fees go to @gootecks, paid in dollars through X Money.

The other 20% buys and burns $PAID under Paid's published model.
