What is 3IATLAS?
3IATLAS is more than a meme coin — it’s a cosmic movement. Inspired by an interstellar visitor that entered our solar system, this mysterious object sparked curiosity, wonder, and endless speculation among astronomers and dreamers alike. We call it “The Visitor.”
The Visitor
The real 3IATLAS Visitor is believed to be an interstellar object passing through our neighborhood — a rare traveler from another star system. While scientists debate its nature, we’ve claimed it in the name of memes, culture, and unstoppable Web3 energy.
Why 3IATLAS Exists
My journey with 3IATLAS is deeply personal—rooted in family legacy and the unending mystery of Roswell. My grandfather, Major Jesse A. Marcel Sr., was the first U.S. Army Air Forces intelligence officer assigned to investigate the debris that crashed near Roswell, New Mexico in July 1947. Initially described as a “flying disc,” the official story quickly changed to a weather balloon—an explanation he later rejected.
Decades after the event, Marcel bravely shared his belief that the material he recovered was not of this Earth. He showed pieces of the debris to his young son, insisting these were artifacts beyond human creation. His experiences shaped my upbringing and instilled in me a lifelong fascination with the unknown.
That legacy is the foundation of 3IATLAS—the coin I launched as a tribute to his courage, to cosmic curiosity, and to the truth-seeking spirit he embodied.
