    Satin with a side of spite.

    Red satin. Gold trim. A cheeky offer to send the SEC a pair, too.

A few details

Good questions.

What is Short Shorts?

Short Shorts ($S3XY) is an independent memecoin project inspired by Tesla’s red satin short shorts and the internet culture around short sellers. The project is currently in prelaunch.

Is $S3XY available to buy?

Not yet. Verified token, network, and purchase details will be published here when they are ready. This site currently has no contract address or purchase link.

How are the proposed rewards intended to work?

The proposed model directs a portion of coin-generated fees toward TSLA purchases, with reward allocations intended to reflect eligible holdings. Fee rates, eligibility, custody, distribution method, and timing are still being finalized. Rewards are not active.

Does $S3XY track Tesla’s share price?

The proposed connection is through fee-funded TSLA purchases. It does not establish a price peg, a TSLA trading pair, or direct ownership of Tesla shares simply by holding $S3XY.

Is this affiliated with Tesla or Elon Musk?

No. Short Shorts is an independent community project. The historical posts document the original meme; they are not endorsements of this token.
