A lot of people have been asking what I think about $BATON after it started running hard again, so here’s my updated view
BATON isn’t a new play. It’s been around for quite a while, and most people who have been following probably already know the narrative behind it, so I don’t want to spend too much time repeating the old story
What interests me this time is that the thesis around BATON is starting to become interesting again
The BATON/$PUMP pair isn’t new either. It has existed for a while, so I don’t see the PUMP pair itself as a catalyst. What matters more is the timing
$PUMP is currently in a pretty clear uptrend. Based on the data I’m watching, it’s up around 33% over the past 7 days, 51% over the past 30 days, and almost 300% over the past 90 days. Just from its late September lows around $0.0041–$0.0049 to current levels, it has already recovered roughly 30–50%
So as liquidity and attention start flowing back into $PUMP, I think BATON naturally becomes one of the easier names for the market to use as a bet on the broader Pump ecosystem
But my thesis isn’t simply that BATON is paired with PUMP
That has been the case for a long time
What I’m actually betting on is whether BATON could be closer to than what is publicly known, or at the very least whether it is gradually becoming a token that the ecosystem implicitly accepts
To be clear, there is currently no solid evidence proving that or Alon is actually behind $BATON. This is still speculation, and I think it should be treated exactly that way
But there are a few things that make this bet worth watching :
> BATON has been around for quite some time. It wasn’t created recently just to capitalize on the current $PUMP move. The community survived for months, and now liquidity is starting to come back
> $PUMP is getting stronger at the same time BATON is regaining attention. If PUMP maintains this momentum, a PUMP pair like BATON with existing history, liquidity and community could continue to benefit
> Holder rewards are another part I find pretty interesting. Rewards are paid in $PUMP, and a few friends of mine who hold BATON have shown me that they’ve received several thousand dollars just from rewards. To me, that matters because it creates a real incentive for holders rather than being just another narrative to sell
> also has the $PUMP buyback running while the battle for attention and market share with StonkFun continues. If Pump keeps bringing volume and liquidity back into its ecosystem, PUMP pairs that already have volume and a community become even more interesting to watch
This is why I look at BATON a little differently now
Previously, BATON was mostly a lore play
Now it feels more like a speculative proxy for a broader thesis : $PUMP continues to perform, regains attention, and the market starts looking for tokens that can directly benefit from that flow
BATON is sitting in a pretty good position for that
If nothing deeper ever comes from it, then BATON is still just a community token with good lore, a PUMP pair and holder rewards. That’s the risk of this trade
But if we eventually see any kind of recognition, interaction or deeper integration from I think BATON could be repriced very quickly because most of the foundation is already there
The chart is also making this thesis more interesting
BATON spent quite a while around the 1–2M range, eventually reclaimed 4–5M, and recently expanded all the way toward 15–16M before pulling back to around 11–12M
I entered my position around 5M, so I’m not looking to chase immediately after such a large move
From here, I’ll be watching whether BATON can hold its new market cap range, whether volume stays, and most importantly whether $PUMP can maintain its momentum
I also want to see whether we get any additional moves from or any new information that materially strengthens the thesis. If that happens, I’m completely open to chasing higher and adding to my position
For me, this is still a pretty simple bet
I’m not claiming is behind BATON because there isn’t enough evidence to say that
I’m betting on the possibility, while also betting that the market continues to treat BATON as a proxy for $PUMP and the broader ecosystem
The BATON narrative itself is old
But $PUMP is getting stronger, liquidity is coming back into BATON, and several pieces are starting to line up in the same direction
That’s what makes $BATON genuinely interesting to me again right now

And just as I expected with $SI, the thesis continues to develop pretty closely to what I’ve been watching in my previous updates
In my last update, I mentioned Elon as one of the next catalysts I wanted to watch. At the time, Elon had already appeared alongside the Super Intelligence narrative at the White House, but I still treated it as optionality. What I wanted to see was whether he would actually continue using “Super Intelligence” or “SI” on X and in future public appearances
Today, we got another answer
Elon directly posted “No more AI / SI / It’s Better,” called SpaceX a “Super Intelligence company,” and when someone suggested changing SpaceXAI to SpaceXSI, he replied :
“Yes, we will make that change”
I’m still not treating SpaceXSI as a fully confirmed catalyst until we see an actual branding or name change. But at the very least, Elon is now actively using the “SI” terminology, which is exactly what I wanted to monitor in my previous update
There was also another development from Trump
Following the September 29 Executive Order, Trump has now announced the creation of the Super Intelligence Force, or SIF. The task force is expected to focus on the risks, opportunities, and role of the federal government around Super Intelligence, with a report expected within roughly 120 days
For me, the next thing to watch isn’t another headline
It’s execution
If federal agencies actually begin using “Super Intelligence” and “SI” more consistently across relevant communications and materials, then this narrative has a better chance of lasting beyond a single news cycle
Coming back to $SI itself, the reward mechanism is also still running
In my previous update, lifetime holder rewards were around $1.69M. The latest figure I’m tracking is now roughly $2.79M, meaning around $1.1M has been added in just four days
Around 11,873 NVDAx have also been distributed, while the last three days alone have generated at least roughly $525K in rewards. Payouts are still ongoing and rewards can be distributed in either NVDAx or $SI
This remains one of the more interesting parts of the thesis for me: attention is coming from the narrative outside crypto, while holders have an additional incentive through the reward mechanism
That said, I’m not ignoring the weaker signals either
$SI is currently sitting around $40–42M MC after previously reaching roughly $67M. It still hasn’t reclaimed the $45–58M area that I wanted to see develop into a proper base
Holder count is now around 59K and has been declining slightly, while $SI has also moved from #
1# to around #
4# on the Stonk Board
So I don’t see a reason to become more aggressive here yet
The narrative is still developing, the Elon catalyst I was waiting for has appeared, and rewards continue to grow. But I still want to see price reclaim $45M+, volume maintain momentum, and holder retention stabilize again
I’m also still watching the two previous optionalities: Holder Crates and tokens directly paired with $SI. Neither is significant enough yet for me to include in the core thesis, but if either starts creating meaningful demand, I’ll update accordingly
I’m already in profit from my previous position, so for now I’m simply letting the remaining position run and watching how things develop
What I want to see next is pretty simple :
The attention is already here. Now $SI needs to prove the retention

The $SI thesis has changed once again
My last update was written when $SI had just wicked to around $45M. Not long after that, the market continued to reprice it and $SI pushed as high as roughly $67M MC
But once again, price isn’t the most important update here
The biggest catalyst I had been waiting for finally happened
On September 29, Trump officially signed the Executive Order titled “Inaugurating the Era of Super Intelligence”
This is a major progression for the narrative
First, Trump mentioned Super Intelligence
Then he talked about making SI the official terminology
Now the EO has actually been signed
Under the order, executive branch agencies are directed to use Super Intelligence and SI instead of Artificial Intelligence and AI in certain communications and materials covered by the order. It also calls for proposed legislative language defining Super Intelligence at the federal level within 60 days
For me, this is the strongest catalyst outside crypto that this thesis has seen so far
Another detail I’ve started paying attention to is Elon Musk
Elon was at the White House on September 29 and signed the White House Accord on Super Intelligence alongside Jensen Huang, Zuckerberg, Pichai, Amodei, and Brockman
He also posted the words “Super Intelligence” directly on X while quoting a White House video. On camera, there was even a moment where Elon said “AI” before correcting himself to “SI, pardon me”
I’m not treating this as Elon pushing the narrative in the same way Trump has been
But at the very least, this terminology is now starting to appear around some of the biggest names in tech
If Elon continues using Super Intelligence on X or in future public appearances, that could become another layer of attention worth watching
At the same time, the numbers behind $SI have been moving incredibly fast
Holders have grown from around 21K to nearly 50K
Lifetime holder rewards on StonkFun have increased from roughly $885K to $1.69M
$SI has also moved from #
2# to #
1# on StonkFun’s flywheel, while its market cap expanded from around $20M to $45M and eventually as high as $67M
According to UniPcs’ latest update, $SI also generated more than $72M in 24h volume. UniPcs remains publicly bullish on their position and has mentioned $100M as their own target
Another piece of optionality I’ve been watching is also starting to show some signs of life
Super Cat $SC has appeared with a direct $SC/$SI pair on StonkFun and reached roughly $200K MC
$200K is still small and nowhere near enough for me to call $SC a major runner
But this is at least the first time I’ve seen a token directly paired with $SI start reaching a six-figure valuation
Previously, the idea of $SI becoming a quote asset was mostly theoretical optionality. Now we’re starting to see tokens actually use it and attract some capital
If more tokens start pairing with $SI after $SC, especially if we eventually see larger runners, then I’ll start viewing this as a meaningful new layer of demand
Looking at the bigger picture, the progression is becoming pretty clear
$20M became $45M, then $67M
21K holders became nearly 50K
$885K in rewards became roughly $1.69M
The flywheel moved from #
2# to #
1#
And the Super Intelligence catalyst went from a statement, to repeated terminology, and finally to an actual Executive Order
For me, this is no longer about finding an entry
I’m already sitting on profit from my earlier position, so at this point I’m simply letting the remaining profit run with the thesis
What I want to see next is whether the $45–58M area can turn into a real base, whether volume stays strong enough to keep the flywheel alive, whether holders continue growing, and whether Super Intelligence can maintain mainstream attention after the EO catalyst
If those things continue to hold while the pair ecosystem develops and new catalysts potentially emerge from names like Elon, I don’t see a reason to rush into changing the thesis
The catalyst happened. The flywheel reached #
1#. The pair ecosystem is starting to take shape. And attention outside crypto is still expanding
From here, I don’t need to predict exactly where the top is
The position is already in profit. I’m letting the rest run as long as the thesis remains intact

Out of character post to clarify a few things:
Day 1 of $VRAX, the coin moved organically on it's own and was in the multi millions very quickly as a result of the robinhood summit creating the Vrax that we know and love.
After it exploded, a malicious account paid dexscreener to get it's socials attached to the coin. Their goal was to gather as many follows on the account as they could before they pull their next rug.
They had a Vlad follow on the account which we saw was used to bait in Twitter Trackers. Their strategy was to de-activate and re-activate over and over with different rug CAs in the bio.
We sent a lengthy email exchange with
@dexscreener to get their socials removed and to get ours attached.
We wanted to run a proper CTO on this coin since the narrative of
@RobinhoodCrypto creating their OWN cat, their own meme, and it being so good... it can't be left to go to waste because some scammer paid Dex first.
You will see in the video attached that we sent EXTENSIVE evidence to dexscreener in the first 24 hours of the coin's life to try to get them removed so we could officially take over.
After spending all day going back and forth, they decided after all the evidence to side with the SCAMMERS and denied our original CTO request while also keeping our $200.
The next day, the scammers deleted their socials and re-activated with a new name and with a scam CA in their bio, just as predicted.
After this happened, we tried AGAIN with dexscreener and we finally got our CTO request approved.
To be clear, the malicious socials that were attached were
@vraxrh (now namechanged to a scam).
And to be extra clear: THEY HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE COIN.
They are opportunistic scammers: They hostaged the socials on dexscreener after they saw it doing a lot of volume in order to lure followers. They most likely never even bought the coin to begin with.
There is no bundle, there is no rug in this coin. This is verifiably provable onchain. Check the historical bubblemaps. It is completely clean.
In the last 24 hours we were able to get our socials on dexscreener fixed, we were able to get Fomo to change the socials to this X account and we were able to push out a lot of good content.
However, recently we discovered that a bug occurred on the Fomo frontend, so despite us getting the socials fixed on Fomo in the morning; the socials somehow reverted back to the deleted socials you see now from the rugger's X account.
We are working to get that fixed as we speak, yet again, just like last time.
We are working tirelessly to produce content and keep this account posting.
So much confusion and damage was caused by the rugger stealing the socials on dexscreener day 1 and it did not help that dexscreener took so long to correct this, but we move forward with what we have.
The community is strong, the meme is strong, the narrative is strong, and most importantly:
The $VRAX army is strong.

And the last one I want to cover in today’s recap series is $KNIGHTCAT
I think this is one of the more interesting narrative trades among the newer memes today, but it’s also a case where you need to understand exactly what you’re buying because several different communities are currently competing for the same narrative
1. The narrative behind $KNIGHTCAT
solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump revolves around Knight Kitten, the little armored cat with a pink bow and a sword
What makes this interesting is that the meme existed before the token. The content series was created with AI by
@sickmanai around mid-August, with short videos built around the Knight Kitten character gaining traction across Instagram, TikTok and Reels before solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump was launched
So the thesis here isn’t simply that a dev launched a coin and then created some AI content around it
The meme and content came first
The token came later
What really started bringing attention to solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump was
@KittyKnightAI, which claims to be the creator behind the meme, putting the solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump CA in its bio. More importantly, the CA also appeared in the bio of
@sickmanai on Instagram
For me, this is currently the strongest catalyst behind the entire narrative
The market isn’t just trading another AI cat meme. It’s trading the idea that the creator behind a meme that already had attention outside crypto has now stepped into the memecoin itself
2. Why the narrative started running
There is a big difference in memecoins between a community simply taking a viral meme and launching a token around it, and the actual creator of that content acknowledging the token
solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump is currently being valued around the second scenario
Once the creator connection started spreading, the token moved from a very low market cap to an ATH of roughly $4.8M before retracing back toward the $2.3M to $2.5M area
That’s also why I think the initial move to $4.8M was mostly the market repricing the creator narrative rather than pricing in any major product or hard catalyst
For another leg higher, the market will probably need something new to trade on
3. $BUN is an interesting comp, but don’t confuse the two
This is probably the most important part
There are currently several tokens across different chains using the same or very similar Knight Cat imagery
$BUN on Robinhood Chain is the biggest example. It previously reached a valuation in the tens of millions, so naturally people have started using it as a comparison for $KNIGHTCAT
But structurally, they are completely different
$BUN is tied to the Mosh ecosystem on Robinhood Chain and carries a narrative around launch infrastructure and AI market-making agents. A large portion of its supply is also associated with the agent vault structure, and it has built its own story within the Robinhood ecosystem
solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump is much simpler
It’s a Solana memecoin launched through There is no AI agent, vault, buyback mechanism or protocol behind it
Its edge right now is almost entirely the meme, the creator connection and attention
So I can use $BUN as evidence that the market has previously been willing to assign a much higher valuation to this imagery and narrative, but I would not say solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump has to reach $20M, $30M or $50M simply because $BUN did
4. The battle over who is actually “original” isn’t over
This is also one of the biggest risks to the thesis
Knight Cat isn’t the only token claiming this imagery
Swordcat and Catana have their own communities, while the $BUN side argues that they were already using the Sword Kitty narrative earlier. Other accounts have also made competing claims about who the original creator or artist actually is
In other words, this is currently a PvP battle for attention and narrative ownership rather than a clean case of undisputed IP ownership
Where solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump currently has an advantage is its direct connection to
@sickmanai and the fact that the CA appeared in the creator’s bio
But that advantage can also disappear quickly
If the creator keeps posting Knight Kitten content while keeping the CA there, the connection becomes stronger
If the creator stops mentioning the token or removes the CA, a large part of the current thesis disappears with it
5. On-chain doesn’t look bad, but I wouldn’t overread it
Supply is currently around 978M tokens. Mint and freeze authority have been revoked, liquidity has migrated to PumpSwap, and trackers show dev holdings close to 0%
Top 10 holders are around 22 to 23%
For a new memecoin, that concentration isn’t particularly extreme, although I also wouldn’t call it proof of perfect distribution
The creator has also publicly shared a transaction and claimed that their tokens are locked for one year
That’s a positive for sentiment because it reduces some of the concern around the creator simply stepping in to dump tokens
But it’s important to understand what was actually locked
This refers to the creator’s own position, not the entire token supply
Dev holdings being near 0% also only removes one layer of direct risk. It doesn’t mean whales or other large holders can’t take profit
6. Volume is huge relative to liquidity
This is something I’m watching closely
solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump has seen roughly $10M in 24-hour volume while liquidity has only been in the few hundred thousand dollar range
That tells me turnover is extremely high
The bull interpretation is obvious: there is real attention and a lot of traders are actively participating
The bear interpretation is that a large part of this volume could simply be fast capital rotating in and out rather than holders accumulating
That’s why I wouldn’t look at the volume alone and automatically assume the chart is strong
For this type of meme, attention can push price higher extremely quickly, but when that attention disappears, relatively thin liquidity can accelerate the downside just as quickly
7. Frank and Ansem have also started aping
This is another part I find interesting
Based on the snapshots I have, Frank bought around $12K worth of solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump, roughly 4.6M tokens, with an average entry around a $2.54M market cap. At the time of the snapshot, he hadn’t sold any
Ansem entered considerably earlier
His position was around $1K with an average entry near a $1.44M market cap. With solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump around $2.5M, that position was up nearly 70%, and the snapshot also showed no sells
I wouldn’t use Frank or Ansem buying as the thesis itself
But it matters from an attention perspective
Once traders with large CT audiences start appearing in the holder flow, more traders naturally put the token on their radar. For a memecoin whose value is currently driven primarily by attention, that matters more than it normally would
8. The next catalysts are actually pretty simple
Right now, I don’t see any hard catalyst such as a CEX listing, major partnership, product release or significant roadmap event
The main catalyst is still content
The most important thing I want to see next is
@sickmanai continuing to publish new videos while keeping the same CA in the bio
After that, I’d look for actual collaborations with other creators.
@knightcore___ has already been mentioned, but I’d rather see the content actually released than simply a tweet saying a collaboration is coming
If these things happen consistently, the creator narrative gets reinforced and a retest of the $4.8M ATH becomes much easier to justify
Votes and FOMO campaigns can bring short-term attention, but in my view they aren’t enough to build another major leg if creator content stops
9. The price action I’m watching
After reaching an ATH around $4.8M, solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump retraced roughly 50% and is currently trying to hold the $2M to $2.5M area
For now, I see this as the first zone the market is trying to defend
If the narrative continues to develop and this area holds, I’ll be watching for a reclaim of $3M followed by a potential retest of the $4.8M ATH
If $2M is clearly lost, the next area I’d start watching is around $1.5M
Around $1M is where I would consider the narrative itself to be genuinely tested
If the token gets there while the creator is still posting new content, the CA remains in the bio and volume hasn’t completely died, then the risk/reward becomes much more interesting to me
On the other hand, if it breaks below $1M while the creator goes quiet or removes the CA, I’d consider the current thesis largely invalidated
10. My overall view
What I like about solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump comes down to a few specific things
The meme existed before the coin
The content already had attention outside crypto
The creator then stepped into the narrative and attached the CA
And now larger traders like Frank and Ansem have started paying attention
That’s enough of a setup for me to keep watching it
But I also don’t want to turn the story into something bigger than it currently is
solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump doesn’t yet have a product, revenue mechanism or fundamental structure that creates a floor for its valuation. And $BUN is not evidence that solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump has to follow the same trajectory
This is still a pure attention trade
My thesis is pretty simple :
Viral meme before crypto + creator onboarded + CA remains confirmed + consistent new content + expanding CT attention = the narrative still has room to run
Creator stops posting + CA disappears + volume dies = most of the thesis disappears with it
So rather than trying to predict a $10M or $20M target based purely on the chart, I’ll be paying much more attention to what the creator does next
If solana:3Dgwn5E7H5a8k6iGrz3qirkaJqUaJrKHEZ2xPcLRpump gets another leg, I think it will come from fresh content and further expansion of the creator narrative, not because the token itself has any special mechanism
High risk, but definitely a narrative worth keeping on the radar

And the fourth one I want to mention is solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump
This is one of the newer AI coins on Solana that caught my attention recently. Not just because of the price action, but because there is already something real running behind the token
That said, with solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump, I think it is important to separate what has actually been shipped from what is still just a thesis
1. What is CrawlNet actually building?
solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump is the token behind CrawlNet, an experiment attempting to build a crypto-native LLM using data collected directly from Web3
Instead of simply launching a token and attaching an AI narrative to it, CrawlNet is operating a network of crawlers. These crawlers read whitepapers, documentation, governance pages, forums, blogs, and other crypto-related sources
The data is then cleaned, deduplicated, and added to a dataset used to train the project's model, Queen
What I find interesting is that most of this process can actually be tracked through the dashboard. In recent snapshots, there were more than 80 crawlers operating, with over 12,000 pages crawled across hundreds of crypto-related domains
2. Queen is the most important part of the thesis
Queen v1 was trained from scratch using a nanochat-style approach, with roughly 42.1M parameters and a corpus of around 26.2M tokens collected from 10,521 pages
The team has also published the Queen v1 weights on Hugging Face and released an experimental chat interface
Meanwhile, data collection is continuing for Queen v2. The dataset recently reached around 32M tokens, with the team targeting roughly 60M
This is what makes solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump more interesting to me than many other AI memes
The team is not simply saying they are going to build AI at some point in the future. The crawlers are running, data is actually being collected, and the first model has already been trained
But it is also important to keep the scale in perspective
42M parameters is still a very small model, and the dev himself has said that Queen is still in testing. There is currently no independent benchmark showing that Queen can outperform existing small models
So for now, I view Queen v1 more as a proof of concept than a finished AI product
3. How does solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump fit into the system?
This is probably the part of the project design I find most interesting
To spawn a crawler, users need to burn solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump. The initial cost was around 200,000 tokens per crawler, although the team later adjusted the economics and reduced the spawning cost
Once created, crawlers continue collecting crypto data and contributing it to Queen's dataset
Creator fees generated from trading flow into the treasury. Under the current structure, roughly 60% goes toward compute and 40% goes into the reward pool for crawler owners
This split was adjusted during the first few days, as earlier updates had allocated a smaller percentage to crawler owners
The reward pool settles every 12 hours. To qualify for rewards in a round, a crawler needs to bring in at least 25 new pages during that round
In one of the early rounds, the team reported distributing roughly 65.2 SOL across 69 crawlers owned by 36 wallets. At that point, total creator fees generated since launch were around 142.9 SOL
There are also refuel and order mechanisms
Once a crawler reaches its earn cap, more solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump can be burned to refuel it
With orders, users can burn around 10,000 solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump to request that a crawler reads a specific website, with a limit of roughly 50 pages from a single host
However, these orders need to be approved by an operator before execution, so this part of the system is not yet fully automated on-chain
4. The flywheel is interesting, but still heavily dependent on attention
In simple terms, CrawlNet currently works like this :
Trading generates creator fees
Fees fund compute and crawler rewards
Users burn solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump to spawn or refuel crawlers
Crawlers collect more data
The data is used to train Queen
Part of the token supply continues to be burned
During the early stage, the team reported that roughly 2.7% of the supply had been burned. However, this was only a snapshot at that point in time, and crawler economics have since been adjusted, so I would not treat 2.7% as a fixed figure for the current state of the system
The bigger issue is that crawler rewards are not currently funded by revenue generated by Queen itself
Most of the money still originates from solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump creator fees
High volume means a larger reward pool
Lower volume means a smaller pool
Smaller rewards mean less incentive to spawn and operate crawlers
So in its current form, I still see this as an attention flywheel attached to an AI experiment rather than a complete business flywheel
For this thesis to become significantly stronger, I would want to see actual users of Queen, third parties finding value in the dataset, or revenue streams that do not depend entirely on trading volume
5. The dev is another part I will be watching
The developer behind CrawlNet is Matthew,
@matthewabides, who also operates
@crawlnetwork
Before CrawlNet, Matthew worked on Swarm, an AI agent project on Robinhood Chain. Swarm ran for more than two weeks before he decided to shut it down and withdraw the dev fees, after which he moved on to CrawlNet
Because of that, I would not use the dev's track record as a reason by itself to trust solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump
For this project, I care much more about what Matthew continues to ship after the initial hype dies down
Another thing worth clarifying is that the crawler visualization itself is not an entirely original concept. Matthew has acknowledged inspiration from another crawler visualization, and another token with a similar narrative appeared before solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump
So I would not value solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump based on a "first mover" thesis
What matters more is that the team has turned the concept into an actual working system with crawlers, token burns, rewards, a growing dataset, and a model
6. Price action
solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump launched at a very low market cap and quickly became one of the more talked-about coins within this narrative
ATH reached roughly $7M to $8M market cap, while the chart is currently sitting around the $5M area after a very aggressive expansion
During the early phase, 24h volume climbed above $15M and the holder count reached around 7,000+
That is a significant amount of attention for such a new token
However, liquidity is only in the several-hundred-thousand-dollar range. Relative to its market cap and trading volume, liquidity remains fairly thin, meaning relatively modest buys or sells can move the market cap aggressively in either direction
Because of that, I would not chase expansion candles here
7. What are the next catalysts?
For me, the most important catalyst for solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump is not another KOL call
It is whether the team keeps shipping
Queen v2 is currently continuing to collect data, with a target of around 60M tokens
The team has also said that weights from future training runs will continue to be published on Hugging Face. There are also planned updates to crawler economics and the harness to make interacting with Queen easier
If v2 ships, the dataset continues growing, and most importantly, people outside the team begin actually using Queen, the thesis becomes significantly stronger
On the other hand, if the crawlers continue running but Queen fails to generate meaningful utility, the market may eventually value solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump as an AI meme with a better-than-average demo rather than an actual AI infrastructure project
8. My view
The reason I am paying attention to solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump is pretty simple
The team has already shipped more than most new AI memes I have seen recently
The crawlers are running
Tokens are actually being burned to participate in the system
Rewards have already been distributed in SOL
The dataset is growing
Queen v1 has been trained and its weights are public
But I also do not want to overhype it
Queen is still very small, there is no independent evaluation yet, the economics remain heavily dependent on trading volume, and the dev does not have a strong enough track record for me to make a long-term bet based purely on promises
For now, I see solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump as an experimental AI coin with a real product worth watching, rather than a proven AI infrastructure play
After running from a very low market cap to around $7M to $8M and now sitting around $5M, I would rather watch for a pullback than FOMO into it
If Queen v2 actually ships, the crawler network continues expanding, and most importantly, real usage starts appearing outside of speculation, then the solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump thesis becomes much more interesting

And the fourth one I want to mention is solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump
This is one of the newer AI coins on Solana that caught my attention recently. Not just because of the price action, but because there is already something real running behind the token
That said, with solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump, I think it is important to separate what has actually been shipped from what is still just a thesis
1. What is CrawlNet actually building?
solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump is the token behind CrawlNet, an experiment attempting to build a crypto-native LLM using data collected directly from Web3
Instead of simply launching a token and attaching an AI narrative to it, CrawlNet is operating a network of crawlers. These crawlers read whitepapers, documentation, governance pages, forums, blogs, and other crypto-related sources
The data is then cleaned, deduplicated, and added to a dataset used to train the project's model, Queen
What I find interesting is that most of this process can actually be tracked through the dashboard. In recent snapshots, there were more than 80 crawlers operating, with over 12,000 pages crawled across hundreds of crypto-related domains
2. Queen is the most important part of the thesis
Queen v1 was trained from scratch using a nanochat-style approach, with roughly 42.1M parameters and a corpus of around 26.2M tokens collected from 10,521 pages
The team has also published the Queen v1 weights on Hugging Face and released an experimental chat interface
Meanwhile, data collection is continuing for Queen v2. The dataset recently reached around 32M tokens, with the team targeting roughly 60M
This is what makes solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump more interesting to me than many other AI memes
The team is not simply saying they are going to build AI at some point in the future. The crawlers are running, data is actually being collected, and the first model has already been trained
But it is also important to keep the scale in perspective
42M parameters is still a very small model, and the dev himself has said that Queen is still in testing. There is currently no independent benchmark showing that Queen can outperform existing small models
So for now, I view Queen v1 more as a proof of concept than a finished AI product
3. How does solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump fit into the system?
This is probably the part of the project design I find most interesting
To spawn a crawler, users need to burn solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump. The initial cost was around 200,000 tokens per crawler, although the team later adjusted the economics and reduced the spawning cost
Once created, crawlers continue collecting crypto data and contributing it to Queen's dataset
Creator fees generated from trading flow into the treasury. Under the current structure, roughly 60% goes toward compute and 40% goes into the reward pool for crawler owners
This split was adjusted during the first few days, as earlier updates had allocated a smaller percentage to crawler owners
The reward pool settles every 12 hours. To qualify for rewards in a round, a crawler needs to bring in at least 25 new pages during that round
In one of the early rounds, the team reported distributing roughly 65.2 SOL across 69 crawlers owned by 36 wallets. At that point, total creator fees generated since launch were around 142.9 SOL
There are also refuel and order mechanisms
Once a crawler reaches its earn cap, more solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump can be burned to refuel it
With orders, users can burn around 10,000 solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump to request that a crawler reads a specific website, with a limit of roughly 50 pages from a single host
However, these orders need to be approved by an operator before execution, so this part of the system is not yet fully automated on-chain
4. The flywheel is interesting, but still heavily dependent on attention
In simple terms, CrawlNet currently works like this :
Trading generates creator fees
Fees fund compute and crawler rewards
Users burn solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump to spawn or refuel crawlers
Crawlers collect more data
The data is used to train Queen
Part of the token supply continues to be burned
During the early stage, the team reported that roughly 2.7% of the supply had been burned. However, this was only a snapshot at that point in time, and crawler economics have since been adjusted, so I would not treat 2.7% as a fixed figure for the current state of the system
The bigger issue is that crawler rewards are not currently funded by revenue generated by Queen itself
Most of the money still originates from solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump creator fees
High volume means a larger reward pool
Lower volume means a smaller pool
Smaller rewards mean less incentive to spawn and operate crawlers
So in its current form, I still see this as an attention flywheel attached to an AI experiment rather than a complete business flywheel
For this thesis to become significantly stronger, I would want to see actual users of Queen, third parties finding value in the dataset, or revenue streams that do not depend entirely on trading volume
5. The dev is another part I will be watching
The developer behind CrawlNet is Matthew,
@matthewabides, who also operates
@crawlnetwork
Before CrawlNet, Matthew worked on Swarm, an AI agent project on Robinhood Chain. Swarm ran for more than two weeks before he decided to shut it down and withdraw the dev fees, after which he moved on to CrawlNet
Because of that, I would not use the dev's track record as a reason by itself to trust solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump
For this project, I care much more about what Matthew continues to ship after the initial hype dies down
Another thing worth clarifying is that the crawler visualization itself is not an entirely original concept. Matthew has acknowledged inspiration from another crawler visualization, and another token with a similar narrative appeared before solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump
So I would not value solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump based on a "first mover" thesis
What matters more is that the team has turned the concept into an actual working system with crawlers, token burns, rewards, a growing dataset, and a model
6. Price action
solana:BXoHJddsWJLHtAopeiSbKUSELsu8hSFMs8baGMDkpump launched at a very low market cap and quickly became one of the more talked-about coins within this narrative
ATH reached roughly $7M to $8M market cap, while the chart is currently sitting around the $5M area after a very aggressive expansion
During the early phase, 24h volume climbed above $15M and the holder count reached around 7,000+
That is a significant amount of attention for such a new token
However, liquidity is only in the several-hundred-thousand-dollar range. Relative to its market cap and trading volume, liquidity remains fairly thin, meaning relatively modest buys or sells can move the market cap aggressively in either direction
Because of that, I would not chase expansion candles here
7. What are the next catalysts?

And the third one I want to talk about today is solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv
Quite a few people have been asking me about this one. After spending some time looking deeper into the product, token mechanics, and what the team has actually shipped, I still consider solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv a gamble for now
Not because the idea is bad. In fact, I think SPEC has some clear differences compared to most launchpads currently on the market. But we have seen a lot of new launchpads appear recently, so having an interesting concept alone is no longer enough
SPEC still has quite a lot to prove
Let’s break it down
1. What is SPEC actually building?
is a new launchpad on Solana. Its main difference is not simply making it easier to launch tokens, but allowing creators to attach specific rules directly to their tokens
Creators can set things like wallet caps, anti dump rules, sell cooldowns, anti bundle protection, market hours, privacy launches, SPEC only buys, or even write their own custom logic
The interesting part is that these rules are enforced on chain through Solana transfer hooks and extensions. If a transaction does not meet the required conditions, it can simply fail
SPEC is also building a marketplace where creators can use rules written by other people instead of having to code everything themselves
In simple terms, SPEC is trying to turn a launchpad from somewhere you simply create a coin into a framework where creators can customize how their tokens actually behave
This is probably the part I like most. At least they are trying to differentiate the product instead of copying another bonding curve and putting a new narrative on top of it
2. What is the utility of solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv?
solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv is the main token of the platform, although the token itself currently has No Rules
The more interesting part is the platform economics
According to the team, 100 percent of platform fees are used to buy back and burn solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv. Creators launching tokens can also configure their own fees and allocate creator rewards of up to around 5 percent
The team previously announced that more than $70K had already been used to buy back solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv through the Meteora pool. They have also stated that the supply is locked through Streamflow
If SPEC can generate sustainable volume, the flywheel is fairly straightforward
More tokens launch. More people trade. The platform generates more fees. Those fees are used to buy back and burn solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv
On paper, this is an attractive mechanism
But for now, I still see it as something that needs to be proven rather than an established flywheel
Outside of the initial $70K plus buyback announced by the team, I would like to see more transparent data showing how much revenue is being generated, how many tokens are actually being burned, and how the circulating supply changes over time
3. The early numbers look good, but they need context
During roughly the first day, the team reported around 184 token launches, more than 102K trades, and approximately $10.7M in volume
The platform later showed around $11M to $12M in total volume
That is not bad traction for a brand new launchpad
But there is one important issue
Most of the volume and attention so far appears to be concentrated around solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv itself
At the time I checked, I had not seen a real runner emerge from the tokens launched by users on SPEC
$SCAT was one of the more notable ecosystem tokens and reached roughly $159K market cap at its peak before retracing heavily. Most of the other tokens remain at very small market caps
This matters more to me than the number of tokens being launched
A launchpad can create hundreds of coins every day, but ultimately what keeps traders around is whether it can produce tokens that the market actually wants to trade
SPEC has not proven that yet
4. The team is shipping quickly
One positive is that the team seems to be moving fast
Alongside rules such as wallet caps, anti dump, anti bundle, sell cooldowns, market hours, and custom logic, they have also introduced things like AI Agents and Bundlecat
The team is also teasing another batch of hooks that they describe as their biggest release yet
Another catalyst I am watching is SPEC Liquidity
This feature is still coming soon. According to the team, it will allow users to create liquidity pools even for tokens outside the SPEC launchpad, configure their own rules, customize fees and ranges, while LPs earn fees from trading activity
Creators can also choose solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv as the base pair when launching a token. This means users can buy with solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv, liquidity can sit in solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv, and the chart can also be denominated in solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv
If these features actually gain adoption, the utility of solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv could become significantly stronger
But again, we are still very early
SPEC Liquidity is not live yet, the next major batch of hooks is still being teased, and we have not seen a token using these mechanisms generate enough traction to prove real product market fit
5. Why I still consider solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv a gamble
This is probably the most important part
SPEC does have real technical differentiation. But the launchpad market is extremely crowded right now
A new launchpad is not competing on technology alone. It also needs liquidity, distribution, attention, and most importantly, a reason for traders to stay
SPEC may have better rules than other platforms, but without traders and without runners, even a well designed token will struggle to generate meaningful volume
Another thing worth mentioning is that SPEC is not completely independent in terms of infrastructure yet
According to founder jami, some launches involving FOMO, Pump App, and social trading still go through Hooked hooks. SPEC currently adds its own custom rule layer and marketplace on top of parts of that infrastructure
The founder behind the product is jami,
@jamiiRQ on X. Having a public founder is a positive, but for a platform this new, I still want to see more execution before increasing my conviction
The platform has also only been live for a very short period and experienced some early issues under higher traffic, including site lag, frozen market cap displays, and failed buys. The team said these issues were fixed quickly, but I still want to see how the product performs over a longer period
Then there is the buyback and burn mechanism
If this is supposed to be the core value accrual mechanism for solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv, I want to see it proven through consistent data rather than just one $70K plus buyback during the initial launch period
6. Holder structure and volume are also worth watching
Based on the data I checked, the top 10 holders control around 19 percent of supply. Dev holdings are close to 0 percent, sniper and insider exposure appears relatively low, and mint and freeze authority have been disabled
Looking purely at the holder structure, I do not see a major red flag yet
However, liquidity has only been around $190K to $300K while 24 hour volume at one point exceeded $15M
That means turnover is extremely high
So I would not look at $10M to $15M in volume and assume that the same amount of fresh capital is entering SPEC. A significant amount of that volume could simply be the same capital rotating repeatedly
Several high PnL wallets also entered quite early
Frank is one wallet worth mentioning. Based on the data I have, his cost basis was around a $1.03M market cap. He has already taken some profit while continuing to hold the remaining position
I see that as somewhat positive because early money is still holding exposure
But it is also important to remember that their cost basis is significantly lower than someone entering around current levels
7. The chart and levels I am watching
solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv ran from a very low market cap to an ATH of nearly $3.9M before correcting
The chart is currently moving sideways around the $2M to $2.1M market cap area
The first zone I am watching is around $1.9M to $2.1M. This is where price is currently trying to establish some balance. As long as this area holds, the short term structure still looks reasonable
If that level is lost, I would watch the $1.5M to $1.6M area next. This was previously tested as a local low, and I would want to see how buyers react if price returns there
Below that, the $1M to $1.2M area is close to the cost basis of some early wallets
However, if price actually returns there, I would reassess the thesis rather than automatically treating it as a buy zone
If market cap falls significantly below roughly $800K without any new catalyst, I would consider the initial launch narrative largely broken
8. What would make me more bullish?
I do not need SPEC to announce another 20 features
What I want to see now is execution
First, I want to see tokens launched on SPEC actually use these hooks and become real runners
Then I want to see SPEC Liquidity go live and generate real liquidity and trading activity
I also want to see buybacks and burns continue with clearer and more transparent data
Most importantly, I want to see volume coming from the wider ecosystem instead of being concentrated mainly around solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv itself
And finally, I want to see whether the platform can retain traders once the initial launch hype fades
If these things start happening, I would be willing to upgrade solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv from a gamble into a much more serious thesis
For now, my view is pretty simple
SPEC has a genuinely different concept. The team is shipping quickly, and the initial traction is not bad
But technical differentiation does not automatically mean a launchpad will succeed
Right now, attention is still running ahead of adoption
That is why I still consider solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv a gamble and a watchlist play rather than a conviction play. If I participate, I would keep the size small and continue watching whether the team can turn the programmable launchpad narrative into real usage
If they can, the current market cap could become very interesting
If they cannot, SPEC risks becoming another launchpad where the platform token performs better than every token actually launched on the platform

The chart is currently moving sideways around the $2M to $2.1M market cap area
The first zone I am watching is around $1.9M to $2.1M. This is where price is currently trying to establish some balance. As long as this area holds, the short term structure still looks reasonable
If that level is lost, I would watch the $1.5M to $1.6M area next. This was previously tested as a local low, and I would want to see how buyers react if price returns there
Below that, the $1M to $1.2M area is close to the cost basis of some early wallets
However, if price actually returns there, I would reassess the thesis rather than automatically treating it as a buy zone
If market cap falls significantly below roughly $800K without any new catalyst, I would consider the initial launch narrative largely broken
8. What would make me more bullish?
I do not need SPEC to announce another 20 features
What I want to see now is execution
First, I want to see tokens launched on SPEC actually use these hooks and become real runners
Then I want to see SPEC Liquidity go live and generate real liquidity and trading activity
I also want to see buybacks and burns continue with clearer and more transparent data
Most importantly, I want to see volume coming from the wider ecosystem instead of being concentrated mainly around solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv itself
And finally, I want to see whether the platform can retain traders once the initial launch hype fades
If these things start happening, I would be willing to upgrade solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv from a gamble into a much more serious thesis
For now, my view is pretty simple
SPEC has a genuinely different concept. The team is shipping quickly, and the initial traction is not bad
But technical differentiation does not automatically mean a launchpad will succeed
Right now, attention is still running ahead of adoption
That is why I still consider solana:2AVjqmGbMqg7rSyHVv2deVdggsBgBtu1Bi69BUvE5WRv a gamble and a watchlist play rather than a conviction play. If I participate, I would keep the size small and continue watching whether the team can turn the programmable launchpad narrative into real usage
If they can, the current market cap could become very interesting
If they cannot, SPEC risks becoming another launchpad where the platform token performs better than every token actually launched on the platform

And the second one I want to talk about today is $PRIORS
$PRIORS has been one of the stronger performers on Robinhood Chain recently, moving from around $1.9M MC on September 24 to nearly $13M at ATH, and now holding around $10–11M
But the chart isn’t what caught my attention
Behind $PRIORS is an actual product trying to build an on-chain credit layer for AI agents on Robinhood Chain
Let’s break it down
1. What is Priors actually building?
The core idea is pretty simple
AI agents can own wallets, trade, use APIs, and perform tasks autonomously. But what happens when an agent needs capital or compute before it has the funds to pay for it?
Priors is building a system where agents can borrow USDCG without traditional collateral, then build reputation through their actual repayment history
Each agent uses an ERC-8004 identity, while its borrowing and repayment history is recorded directly on-chain
Credit scores are based on factors such as how much has been repaid, how long loans were held, how much capital is backing the agent, and how long the agent has participated in the protocol
If an agent defaults, its score can reset to zero and directly affect its ability to borrow again
That’s one of the more interesting parts of the thesis :
Reviews can be faked. On-chain repayment history is much harder to fake
2. How does the lending mechanism work?
Priors currently has a USDCG lending pool
Lenders deposit USDCG to provide liquidity. Agents can start with very small credit lines, usually around $5, and gradually increase their limits by building a solid repayment history
Depending on the type of backing, credit lines can currently reach around $500, with loan terms ranging from roughly 1–30 days
Importantly, agents aren’t borrowing purely on trust
Each credit line still has a risk-bearing layer behind it, whether that’s treasury capital, a backer, a $PRIORS seat, or stock collateral
If an agent defaults, the capital backing that agent takes the loss before lenders do
Fees are currently split roughly :
> 60% to lenders
> 25% to sponsors/seat holders
> 15% to reserves
This is also why the protocol currently shows $0 lender losses, although I still want to see how the system performs once a real default happens
3. Where does $PRIORS fit into this?
This is the most important part for the token itself
$PRIORS isn’t a token where simply holding it automatically gives you protocol revenue
One of its main utilities comes from seats
Users can lock $PRIORS behind an agent to support its credit line. If the agent repays successfully, the seat holder can earn part of the sponsor fees
If the agent defaults, part of the $PRIORS locked in the seat can be burned
This creates the flywheel the market is betting on :
Better credit => larger credit line => larger seat required => more $PRIORS locked => usage potentially creates token demand
But there’s an important nuance here
Not every credit line requires $PRIORS. Priors also supports treasury backing, backers, and stock lines
So you can’t simply take total lending volume and assume all of it directly translates into $PRIORS demand
4. The product is already running
This is where I think $PRIORS stands out from a pure AI narrative
A snapshot I checked on October 4 showed roughly :
> 22.5K loans
> 22.4K+ repayments
> Over $172K repaid
> Around 150 agents
> 13 sponsors
> 0 defaults
> $0 lender losses
Beyond the lending pool, Priors is also building several other layers
x402 allows agents that don’t have enough funds to pay for API or compute costs to borrow the difference and repay it later
Stock Line allows agents to use stock tokens on Robinhood Chain to open credit lines, with roughly 25–50% LTV and a current limit of around $250
They also have CLI, SDK, and MCP tooling for developers to integrate the credit layer directly into their agents
Go Mode is also being gradually rolled out to testers rather than existing purely as a concept
5. But the numbers need context
This is where I think the market can easily misread the data
More than $172K repaid does NOT mean Priors has $172K in TVL
That figure represents cumulative lending activity. The same capital can be borrowed, repaid, and recycled many times
When I checked, the actual pool was only around $3.6K, while outstanding debt was roughly $800
Most of the activity also comes from very small credit lines. Many agents borrow $5 and repay relatively quickly
That explains how the protocol can generate more than 22K loan records despite having a relatively small amount of actual capital in the system
Credit history itself is also still fairly shallow. The number of loans held for at least 7 days and qualifying as deeper credit history remains very limited
So in my view :
Priors has proven that the lending loop works. It has not yet proven that a large credit market exists
Those are two very different things.
6. So why did $PRIORS pump this hard?
I don’t see one single catalyst like a major CEX listing or partnership behind the move
In my view, it’s a combination of several factors
First, the AI agent + on-chain credit narrative fits Robinhood Chain extremely well right now
Second, the team is actually shipping. The lending pool, seats, x402, Stock Line, and developer tooling give the market something tangible to price in rather than just another AI landing page
Third is the token mechanism
The market is front-running the idea that if more agents use Priors and their credit lines grow, demand for $PRIORS seats could grow alongside them
And finally, there’s still a speculative component
$PRIORS has been pushed heavily across the Robinhood Chain community and X. With a relatively small market cap and thin liquidity, new capital can move the valuation very quickly
Going from around $1.9M to nearly $13M, the market has clearly priced in a lot of future expectations already
7. On-chain activity is worth watching
FOMO wallets entered very early
The first FOMO transaction I tracked appeared roughly 16 minutes after launch, when the market cap was only around $350K
From there to nearly $13M ATH was roughly a 37x move
Among the wallets I tracked, around 31 wallets bought nearly $365K in total, while 26 wallets have already sold around $196K
Some early wallets are still sitting on sizable positions. One snapshot showed 8 FOMO wallets still holding around $557K, with approximately $363K in unrealized profit
Over the latest 48-hour window, flows from this group were also slightly sell-heavy, with roughly $38K in buys versus $57K in sells
That doesn’t mean the chart has to dump, but buyers who entered between $350K and $2M clearly have a very different cost basis from anyone entering above $10M
8. Supply structure is another thing to watch
The deployer bought roughly 38–39% of the supply around launch, and the data I checked also showed around 33 wallets that were tax-exempt at launch
I don’t have enough evidence to confidently label this as a bundle, so I won’t
But nearly 39% cumulative early buying, combined with the unrealized profits held by early wallets, still creates a supply risk worth monitoring, especially when actual liquidity is much smaller than the market cap
9. What comes next?
The team is currently teasing several notable updates
The first is a new seat model, aiming to reduce the collateral requirement to roughly 1.5–3x the credit line, while potentially increasing the default penalty from a 50% burn to around 75%
Next is BBL, where a portion of fees could be recycled into first-loss capital based on repayment history
The team has also teased new engines and agent crews, allowing multiple agents to work together instead of operating independently
Go Mode is gradually opening as well. Based on one snapshot I checked, the waitlist had around 200 users, with only a few dozen testers being admitted per batch
But this distinction matters :
A feature being teased does not mean it’s already live
SeatVaultV5, BBL, and some of the new engines still need actual deployment and on-chain activity before I treat them as completed catalysts
10. What I’m watching from here
Instead of only watching the chart, I’m paying attention to the underlying metrics
Does the lending pool grow beyond a few thousand dollars?
Does outstanding debt move meaningfully beyond ~$800?
Do agents start borrowing more than $5?
Does qualified credit history begin to grow?
Can Go Mode attract real users outside the initial tester group?
And most importantly :
Does increased credit activity actually lead to more $PRIORS being locked in seats?
If those metrics start growing together, then the token demand thesis gets much stronger
+ My view
I think $PRIORS is one of the more interesting projects on Robinhood Chain right now because the product actually exists and the team is shipping
But I don’t want to turn that into a one-sided bullish thesis
On one side, we have a token valued around $10–11M
On the other, the actual lending pool is still only around $3.6K, outstanding debt is roughly $800, credit history remains shallow, and most activity still comes from very small loans
In other words, the market is pricing Priors’ future faster than actual adoption is growing
The question is no longer :
“Does Priors have a real product?”
The answer is yes
The more important question is :
“Can this product scale fast enough to turn speculative demand for $PRIORS into real usage-driven demand?”
If the new seat model, BBL, and Go Mode genuinely bring more agents, capital, and lending activity into the protocol, the thesis becomes significantly stronger
But if the pool remains only a few thousand dollars and activity continues to revolve mainly around $5 loans, then valuation is running ahead of fundamentals
After a move from $1.9M to nearly $13M, I wouldn’t FOMO the chart here
But $PRIORS is still one of the projects on Robinhood Chain I’ll continue watching closely, especially on-chain usage, token lock-up, and the team’s next deployments

Continuing today’s memecoin recap series, and the first one I want to talk about is $STOCKER
I spent some time going through Stockereum again, from platform activity and the fee mechanism to buyback/burn, holder distribution, and the tokens currently running across the ecosystem
After roughly a month of operation, I think $STOCKER is entering a stage where the thesis is worth revisiting, especially with Stockereum approaching $100M in volume and already having its first $30M+ runner
1. Stockereum is getting real traction
Stockereum is a launchpad on Ethereum mainnet, but the concept is slightly different from the typical memecoin launchpad
Tokens launch with a fixed 1B supply and can be paired with ETH or Ondo tokenized stocks such as NVDAon, TSLAon, AAPLon, and SPYon
I think this is one of the more interesting differentiators here. Instead of simply creating another place to launch memes, Stockereum is combining meme speculation with the tokenized equities/RWA narrative directly on Ethereum
The main liquidity runs through Uniswap v4. Tokens have no owner, cannot mint additional supply or be paused, while the main LP uses hooks so the creator/platform can’t simply pull liquidity after launch
More importantly, there’s actual activity
The latest dashboard numbers I checked showed roughly :
> $97M total volume
> $13M+ 24H volume
> 1,550+ tokens launched
> 72 tokens graduated
> 250K+ transactions
> Around $544K paid in holder/creator rewards
> 40+ ETH used across 870+ buyback/burn transactions
For a platform that’s only around a month old, I think these are meaningful numbers
Stockereum is no longer just a narrative. There are real users, real volume, and real fees behind it
2. The $STOCKER fee flywheel is already running
This is the part I care about most
Creators can choose a 1%, 2%, or 3% trading fee
Depending on the configuration, fees are then split between creator/holder rewards and the platform
For ETH pairs, part of the platform fees are routed back into the market to buy back and burn tokens
For $STOCKER specifically, around 38.2M tokens have already been burned, equal to nearly 3.8% of the total supply
The dashboard valued the burned $STOCKER at roughly $246K when I checked
So the flywheel :
Trading volume => fees => buyback => burn
is already happening on-chain rather than just being a roadmap promise
Holder rewards are live as well. Creators can redirect part of their fees toward holders, with eligible rewards distributed automatically
That’s what I like about the model: platform volume is actually generating economic activity across the ecosystem
3. But don’t misunderstand the buyback mechanism
This is probably the most important thing to clarify about $STOCKER
Not all of Stockereum’s revenue is used to buy $STOCKER
Burn allocation is spread across multiple tokens, and the team can rotate these slots. Besides $STOCKER, tokens such as $ZC, $VERIDIA, and $AP have also received allocations
Most recently, on October 4, the team rotated the 5% slot from $AP into $SC
There has also been an important change involving $ZC
On October 2, Zipcoin and Stockereum announced that the 10% fee allocation previously used for $ZC buybacks would be redirected toward funding Zipcoin’s development and ecosystem
However, the dashboard was still showing some $ZC burns from the previous mechanism that same day. So I’m treating this as an announced transition rather than assuming the entire routing changed instantly
This tells us something important: fee allocation can change
That’s why I don’t view $STOCKER as a revenue-sharing token
There’s currently no staking or meaningful governance mechanism that automatically passes all of Stockereum’s value creation back to holders
Its main utility is still buyback and burn
The flywheel is real, but how much value is captured specifically by $STOCKER still needs to be monitored
4. $ZC is creating an interesting setup
Stockereum already has its first real breakout runner: $ZC
$ZC previously pushed above the $35M area and is still sitting around $30M+, while $STOCKER is only around $6–7M
In other words, a token launched on Stockereum is currently valued around 4–5x higher than the platform token itself
This is also the narrative I’ve seen some Chinese KOLs starting to trade :
Runner moves first => attention returns to the launchpad => volume increases => the market reprices the platform token later
There’s logic behind this, but I wouldn’t simplify it into
“$ZC is $30M, therefore $STOCKER should also be $30M”
The market is valuing these two tokens for different reasons
$ZC has its own Snowmoon/privacy narrative, community, and development
$STOCKER depends much more on Stockereum continuing to grow as a platform
Another thing worth noting: Stockereum already has 72 graduated tokens, but most are still sitting at relatively small market caps
$ZC remains the clear outlier
So Stockereum has proven that it can produce one major runner, but it hasn’t yet proven that it can do it consistently
That’s why the question for me isn’t :
“If $ZC is already $30M, why is $STOCKER only $6–7M?”
It’s :
If Stockereum can produce a second and third $ZC, does the market still keep valuing the infrastructure behind them at only $6–7M?
That’s where I see the asymmetric part of the $STOCKER thesis
If we start seeing more $10M–$20M+ runners after $ZC, the thesis changes significantly
At that point, Stockereum is no longer a launchpad with one winner. It starts proving that it can repeatedly produce runners
5. On-chain looks relatively healthy, but there are still risks
I also checked the holder distribution
The largest wallet at roughly 12.8% is the Uniswap v4 Pool Manager, meaning it represents liquidity rather than a team wallet
The next largest individual wallets hold around 3.3% and 2.7%. The top 100 holders control roughly 70% of supply, with around 2.4K–2.7K holders when I checked
I haven’t found a single dev wallet holding an unusually large percentage of supply
Some analytics tools also label a relatively high percentage as smart money, but I’m not using that as a core part of the thesis because tool labels don’t necessarily mean every wallet has been independently verified
What I’m watching more closely is liquidity routing
Stockereum’s main pool uses a Uniswap v4 hook with roughly a 1% fee, but secondary pools with higher fees also exist
In some cases, a router can send trades through a less efficient pool, resulting in noticeably worse execution
This isn’t the same as the team pulling LP, but it’s still something worth checking before taking a larger position
6. Competition is starting to appear
Another name increasingly being compared with Stockereum is $SEND
If I’m looking purely at traction right now, I still lean toward Stockereum
It’s approaching $100M in volume, has more than 1,500 launches, and most importantly, has already produced a $30M+ runner
On the other hand, some traders prefer SEND’s tokenomics/value capture because they see its buyback structure as stronger
And that highlights exactly what $STOCKER still needs to prove
Stockereum is currently ahead in traction
But $STOCKER doesn’t necessarily capture all of the value generated by the platform
Long term, a strong platform token needs both
7. The chart
$STOCKER ran from a very low base to a peak of roughly $9.6M MC on September 29
A figure around $11M was mentioned by one caller, but I couldn’t verify that from market data, so I’m not using it as the ATH
The chart then reset hard to around $2.8M before starting to rebuild
From there, $STOCKER reclaimed $4M and $5M, then recently expanded back into the $8–9M area before retracing to roughly $6–7M now
The structure still looks fine to me, but I wouldn’t call $6–7M a deep dip
If the market gives us $4–5M again while Stockereum volume keeps growing, $ZC maintains its structure, and buyback/burn continues, I think the risk/reward becomes much more interesting
On the other hand, if it falls back below $3M while the ecosystem itself starts cooling off, the thesis needs to be reassessed
A few ETH of daily buybacks won’t save the chart if organic demand disappears
8. My current thesis
I’m not betting on $STOCKER simply because “$ZC reached $30M, so the platform token has to catch up”
The thesis I’m watching is :
Stockereum maintains volume => volume generates fees => buyback/burn continues => the ecosystem produces more runners => attention flows back to the platform => the market starts repricing $STOCKER
Right now, we already have nearly $100M in volume, 1,500+ launches, 72 graduated tokens, more than $500K in rewards, roughly 38M $STOCKER burned, and one $30M+ runner
That’s a pretty strong start for a platform that’s only around a month old
But there are still three things I want to see next :
Volume breaks $100M and, more importantly, continues growing afterward
The buyback allocation toward $STOCKER remains meaningful as the team continues rotating burn slots
And most importantly, Stockereum produces a second real runner after $ZC
If all three start happening at the same time, I think the gap between an ecosystem generating close to $100M in volume and a platform token sitting around only $6–7M becomes much more interesting
For now, I’d still rather watch for dips than chase pumps

I think this is one of the more interesting differentiators here. Instead of simply creating another place to launch memes, Stockereum is combining meme speculation with the tokenized equities/RWA narrative directly on Ethereum
The main liquidity runs through Uniswap v4. Tokens have no owner, cannot mint additional supply or be paused, while the main LP uses hooks so the creator/platform can’t simply pull liquidity after launch
More importantly, there’s actual activity
The latest dashboard numbers I checked showed roughly :
> $97M total volume
> $13M+ 24H volume
> 1,550+ tokens launched
> 72 tokens graduated
> 250K+ transactions
> Around $544K paid in holder/creator rewards
> 40+ ETH used across 870+ buyback/burn transactions
For a platform that’s only around a month old, I think these are meaningful numbers
Stockereum is no longer just a narrative. There are real users, real volume, and real fees behind it
2. The $STOCKER fee flywheel is already running
This is the part I care about most
Creators can choose a 1%, 2%, or 3% trading fee
Depending on the configuration, fees are then split between creator/holder rewards and the platform
For ETH pairs, part of the platform fees are routed back into the market to buy back and burn tokens
For $STOCKER specifically, around 38.2M tokens have already been burned, equal to nearly 3.8% of the total supply
The dashboard valued the burned $STOCKER at roughly $246K when I checked
So the flywheel :
Trading volume => fees => buyback => burn
is already happening on-chain rather than just being a roadmap promise
Holder rewards are live as well. Creators can redirect part of their fees toward holders, with eligible rewards distributed automatically
That’s what I like about the model: platform volume is actually generating economic activity across the ecosystem
3. But don’t misunderstand the buyback mechanism
This is probably the most important thing to clarify about $STOCKER
Not all of Stockereum’s revenue is used to buy $STOCKER
Burn allocation is spread across multiple tokens, and the team can rotate these slots. Besides $STOCKER, tokens such as $ZC, $VERIDIA, and $AP have also received allocations
Most recently, on October 4, the team rotated the 5% slot from $AP into $SC
There has also been an important change involving $ZC
On October 2, Zipcoin and Stockereum announced that the 10% fee allocation previously used for $ZC buybacks would be redirected toward funding Zipcoin’s development and ecosystem
However, the dashboard was still showing some $ZC burns from the previous mechanism that same day. So I’m treating this as an announced transition rather than assuming the entire routing changed instantly
This tells us something important: fee allocation can change
That’s why I don’t view $STOCKER as a revenue-sharing token
There’s currently no staking or meaningful governance mechanism that automatically passes all of Stockereum’s value creation back to holders
Its main utility is still buyback and burn
The flywheel is real, but how much value is captured specifically by $STOCKER still needs to be monitored
4. $ZC is creating an interesting setup
Stockereum already has its first real breakout runner: $ZC
$ZC previously pushed above the $35M area and is still sitting around $30M+, while $STOCKER is only around $6–7M
In other words, a token launched on Stockereum is currently valued around 4–5x higher than the platform token itself
This is also the narrative I’ve seen some Chinese KOLs starting to trade :
Runner moves first => attention returns to the launchpad => volume increases => the market reprices the platform token later
There’s logic behind this, but I wouldn’t simplify it into
“$ZC is $30M, therefore $STOCKER should also be $30M”
The market is valuing these two tokens for different reasons
$ZC has its own Snowmoon/privacy narrative, community, and development
$STOCKER depends much more on Stockereum continuing to grow as a platform
Another thing worth noting: Stockereum already has 72 graduated tokens, but most are still sitting at relatively small market caps
$ZC remains the clear outlier
So Stockereum has proven that it can produce one major runner, but it hasn’t yet proven that it can do it consistently
That’s why the question for me isn’t :
“If $ZC is already $30M, why is $STOCKER only $6–7M?”
It’s :
If Stockereum can produce a second and third $ZC, does the market still keep valuing the infrastructure behind them at only $6–7M?
That’s where I see the asymmetric part of the $STOCKER thesis
If we start seeing more $10M–$20M+ runners after $ZC, the thesis changes significantly
At that point, Stockereum is no longer a launchpad with one winner. It starts proving that it can repeatedly produce runners
5. On-chain looks relatively healthy, but there are still risks
I also checked the holder distribution
The largest wallet at roughly 12.8% is the Uniswap v4 Pool Manager, meaning it represents liquidity rather than a team wallet
The next largest individual wallets hold around 3.3% and 2.7%. The top 100 holders control roughly 70% of supply, with around 2.4K–2.7K holders when I checked
I haven’t found a single dev wallet holding an unusually large percentage of supply
Some analytics tools also label a relatively high percentage as smart money, but I’m not using that as a core part of the thesis because tool labels don’t necessarily mean every wallet has been independently verified
What I’m watching more closely is liquidity routing
Stockereum’s main pool uses a Uniswap v4 hook with roughly a 1% fee, but secondary pools with higher fees also exist
In some cases, a router can send trades through a less efficient pool, resulting in noticeably worse execution
This isn’t the same as the team pulling LP, but it’s still something worth checking before taking a larger position
6. Competition is starting to appear
Another name increasingly being compared with Stockereum is $SEND
If I’m looking purely at traction right now, I still lean toward Stockereum
It’s approaching $100M in volume, has more than 1,500 launches, and most importantly, has already produced a $30M+ runner
On the other hand, some traders prefer SEND’s tokenomics/value capture because they see its buyback structure as stronger
And that highlights exactly what $STOCKER still needs to prove
Stockereum is currently ahead in traction
But $STOCKER doesn’t necessarily capture all of the value generated by the platform
Long term, a strong platform token needs both
7. The chart
$STOCKER ran from a very low base to a peak of roughly $9.6M MC on September 29
A figure around $11M was mentioned by one caller, but I couldn’t verify that from market data, so I’m not using it as the ATH
The chart then reset hard to around $2.8M before starting to rebuild
From there, $STOCKER reclaimed $4M and $5M, then recently expanded back into the $8–9M area before retracing to roughly $6–7M now
The structure still looks fine to me, but I wouldn’t call $6–7M a deep dip
If the market gives us $4–5M again while Stockereum volume keeps growing, $ZC maintains its structure, and buyback/burn continues, I think the risk/reward becomes much more interesting
On the other hand, if it falls back below $3M while the ecosystem itself starts cooling off, the thesis needs to be reassessed
A few ETH of daily buybacks won’t save the chart if organic demand disappears
8. My current thesis
I’m not betting on $STOCKER simply because “$ZC reached $30M, so the platform token has to catch up”
The thesis I’m watching is :
Stockereum maintains volume => volume generates fees => buyback/burn continues => the ecosystem produces more runners => attention flows back to the platform => the market starts repricing $STOCKER
Right now, we already have nearly $100M in volume, 1,500+ launches, 72 graduated tokens, more than $500K in rewards, roughly 38M $STOCKER burned, and one $30M+ runner
That’s a pretty strong start for a platform that’s only around a month old
But there are still three things I want to see next :
Volume breaks $100M and, more importantly, continues growing afterward
The buyback allocation toward $STOCKER remains meaningful as the team continues rotating burn slots
And most importantly, Stockereum produces a second real runner after $ZC
If all three start happening at the same time, I think the gap between an ecosystem generating close to $100M in volume and a platform token sitting around only $6–7M becomes much more interesting
For now, I’d still rather watch for dips than chase pumps

And the next one I want to update is $SC
Yesterday I talked about $SC with a pretty simple thesis :
ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 is the currency
$SC wants to become the network
After my post, $SC continued running and briefly touched around $1.2M MC before retracing
But price isn’t actually the most interesting update here
Just one day later, the team has already started shipping some of the products I was waiting for
When I first wrote about $SC, Silverchat Predict was still something I wanted to see the team execute on. Now the team says it’s live
Users can stake ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 on outcomes, while opening a prediction market requires locking $SC. Once the market settles, the locked SC is returned, while the ZC pool is distributed to winners after fees
This makes the relationship between the two tokens much clearer to me
ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 isn’t just the quote asset for $SC. It’s starting to become the currency used inside the Silverchat network
And today, the team also shipped SilverCash
SilverCash is the private money layer for the Silverchat ecosystem, built on Railgun
Users can deposit $SC, ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722, or ETH, shield their balance, swap privately, and withdraw to a fresh wallet
I think this is an important addition to the thesis
Silverchat is slowly moving beyond simply being another token connected to the Snowmoon lore. We now have multiple product layers being built around the same ecosystem :
> Poll, using ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 to ask and reward responses
> Predict, using ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 for prediction markets while $SC is locked to create markets
> SilverCash, bringing a private money layer for $SC, ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 and ETH
> SilverRealm, the next piece I’m watching closely
SilverRealm is probably the part that interests me most from a tokenomics perspective
According to the docs, Realm fees are designed to buy ZC, burn a portion of it, then use the remaining amount to buy SC and burn it
If the team ships this and SilverRealm actually generates volume, activity inside the ecosystem could start creating demand for both ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 and $SC
That part isn’t live yet, so I’m not pricing it into the thesis
There are also a few other numbers worth watching
Around 5.86% of the $SC supply is currently in the dead wallet, and the dev says they have personally bought back around 2.2 ETH worth of $SC and burned it
The Zipcoin treasury also holds around 6% of $SC, so the connection between the two ecosystems is becoming more than just lore
But I want to be clear: the current buyback was team-funded. I’m not calling it a sustainable protocol flywheel until we actually see protocol activity generating that demand
There’s also one important thing to understand about the chart
SC/ZC is the main pair
So when ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 pumps, the USD market cap of $SC can rise even without the same level of direct demand coming into SC
That’s why the move to $1.2M MC is nice, but it’s not the confirmation I care about most
I’d rather see SC/ZC strengthen independently, real users entering Predict, organic activity on SilverCash, and actual ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 consumption from wallets outside the team
And eventually, I want to see SilverRealm shipped
Also, just like with ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722, 5% of $SC sitting in vitalik.eth does not mean Vitalik bought or endorsed the token. I’m not using that as part of my bull case
I’m still holding my $SC position
For now, I still see it as a small-cap beta to ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722, so naturally the risk is higher
But I like the setup more than I did yesterday
The market cap is still relatively small, the broader ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 ecosystem is getting more attention, and most importantly, the Silverchat team is actually shipping
Yesterday I said :
ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 is the currency
$SC wants to become the network
Today, that thesis has a little more product behind it
Now I want to see users
If Predict and SilverCash start getting real activity, and SilverRealm is the next piece to ship, $SC could become a much more interesting part of the ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 ecosystem than the market is currently pricing in
Definitely keeping this one on my radar

SilverCash is live
Private money for the Silverchat ecosystem.
Deposit. Shield. Swap. Withdraw.
How it works
1. Deposit $SC, ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 or ETH from your wallet into a private balance.
2. Swap between them privately, through the same $SC and ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 pools as the rest of Silverchat.
3. Withdraw to any address, best a fresh one. A Railgun broadcaster pays the gas from your private balance, so the new wallet needs nothing.
What SilverCash uses:
RAILGUN: the zero-knowledge privacy protocol on Ethereum. Deposits, the private balance, private swaps and withdrawals all run on its contracts, with zk-SNARK proofs made in the user's browser. X:
@RAILGUN_Project
Railway: Railgun's own wallet app. SilverCash's 12 words also open in it, which is our backup if our site ever goes away.
@Stockereum 's router: the private swaps trade through the same $SC and ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 pools as the rest of Silverchat.

I’ve talked about ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 quite a lot since it was sitting around the $6M–$8M MC range, so I probably don’t need to introduce this one again
My original plan was to wait for the first wave to reset and start building a position around the dip
ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 eventually came right into the $6M–$8M zone, wicked down to around $5M, reclaimed its previous ATH around $18M–$20M, and has now broken above $25M, briefly pushing close to $30M
From the dip to the recent high, that was nearly a 5x move
But instead of just looking at the chart, I think the more interesting question is why the market keeps repricing ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 so aggressively, especially on this latest leg
1. The product and narrative are expanding
The first wave was pretty easy to understand. The market was mainly buying the Snowmoon + Vitalik lore
But since then, the team has kept shipping
From the original Zip/Unzip, Burn to Speak, and Doorstep, they’ve expanded the flow so users can zip ETH into 0xbow’s Privacy Pool and come out with private DAI through
One thing worth clarifying: the dedicated DAI and USDC pools are not live yet. The team has only listed them under “Next,” so I’m not including anything that hasn’t shipped in the current thesis
On October 2, the team also launched a private AI chat where users can interact with AI and pay using ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 or zipped ETH, with the flow tied into zkAPI and the broader private AI payments direction
I haven’t seen enough users yet to call this adoption, but it gives ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 another narrative to build around
What started as a literary meme around Snowmoon is now trying to expand into a broader privacy ecosystem across transfers, payments, messaging, and AI
2. External attention is starting to show up
This is probably one of the most important pieces behind the latest leg
Earlier, publicly mentioned
@zipcoincash and the use case of privately funding a account through Zipcoin
Then on October 3, trent.eth / Trent Van Epps, who is involved with Protocol Guild and previously worked at the Ethereum Foundation, publicly asked how he could get in touch with the team. The team later replied that they had DM’d him
To be very clear :
> This is not an endorsement
> It does not mean the Ethereum Foundation is behind ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722
> Vitalik still has not endorsed ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722
But the timing is interesting
Someone close to the Ethereum core ecosystem actively reached out to the team while attention was accelerating, right around the same leg where ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 pushed close to $30M
I think the market is no longer just buying the story of “Vitalik wrote Snowmoon and someone created a token around it”
It’s starting to price in the fact that the team keeps shipping, the privacy narrative is expanding, and people/projects outside the team are starting to notice what they’re building
3. An ecosystem around ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 is starting to form
Several tokens on Stockereum have started pairing directly against ZC, with $SC / Silverchat being the most notable one so far
SC/ZC previously touched around the $1M MC area. The last time I checked, it was below that level at roughly $800K MC, with solid volume but still relatively thin liquidity
In theory, if more tokens start using ZC as a quote asset, that could create additional demand for ZC
But I’m not calling this a major flywheel yet
The pairs are still relatively small. I want to see more projects using ZC and, more importantly, real growth in volume and liquidity first
4. The buyback thesis has changed
This is an important update
Previously, 10% of protocol fees were allocated toward buying back ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722
The team later announced that this 10% protocol fee allocation would instead go toward funding development, ecosystem growth, and privacy initiatives
Because of that, I’m no longer using protocol fees and ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 buybacks as a major part of the bull case
Burn to Speak still reduces supply, but that’s a separate mechanism
And my view remains the same :
Team burns are not the same as organic demand
I care much more about users actually using the product and organically burning ZC than I do about the team burning more tokens themselves
5. The chart is confirming the attention
The chart structure is also an important part of this move
ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 first ran to an ATH around $18M–$20M, reset all the way back to $5M–$8M, built a base, reclaimed the previous ATH, then broke above $25M and briefly pushed close to $30M
Once the old ATH broke at the same time new catalysts were appearing, the market entered price discovery and FOMO started kicking in
So if I had to summarize what’s driving this leg, I’d point to a few things :
> The Snowmoon narrative still has attention
> The team keeps shipping and expanding the privacy product
> started talking about Zipcoin
> Private AI opened up another narrative
> Attention from people close to the Ethereum ecosystem started appearing
> An ecosystem around ZC is beginning to form
> The ATH breakout pushed the chart into price discovery
But even after this move, one part of my previous thesis hasn’t changed :
Price is still moving faster than adoption
At the previous snapshot, the ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 privacy pool was still sitting at around 19 deposits
I still haven’t seen deposits expand meaningfully toward 50 and then 100+, enough activity from wallets outside the team to call this a real usage wave, or significant organic Burn to Speak activity. The private AI product also still needs to prove that it can attract real users
In other words, the market is currently paying a premium for what ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 could become, faster than users are actually adopting the product
6. What am I watching next?
The closest catalyst is the roadmap the team said would come this weekend
I want to see concrete deliverables, a clear timeline, and how they plan to use the 10% protocol fee allocation after the recent change, rather than just more narrative
The team also said a public advisor will be announced within the next few weeks. For me, simply having an advisor doesn’t matter much. What matters is who they are and what they can actually contribute
I’m also still watching :
> Whether deposits move from 19 to 50 and eventually 100+
> Whether more wallets outside the team actually use Zip/Unzip
> Whether ZipTeller/private payments start seeing real transactions
> Whether organic burns continue growing
> Whether the private AI chat starts attracting actual users
> Whether ZC-paired tokens continue expanding in volume and liquidity
Vitalik remains the wildcard
ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 is not Vitalik’s token and he still hasn’t endorsed it. If he ever interacts with the concept or implementation, that could obviously become a major catalyst
But I still see that as a bonus, not the thesis
So the way I see the entire move is pretty simple :
Wave 1, the market bought the Snowmoon lore
The next wave, the market started buying the product and external attention
This current leg, the market is front-running the possibility that ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 could grow into a much larger privacy ecosystem
But if there’s going to be another major and sustainable leg from here, eventually it still needs to be confirmed by one thing :
Users
I already have my position from the $6M–$8M range, so at $25M+ I have no reason to chase
From here, I care less about predicting the next candle and more about whether the fundamentals can catch up with the valuation
The chart gave us the entry. The product and attention gave us the breakout. Now I’m waiting for users to confirm the rest of the thesis
0x4E67DB19044549fF420860834c91b45BaD298722
Show more
I probably don’t need to introduce ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 anymore because I’ve talked about this one with you guys quite a lot over the past few days, from breaking down the entire product to sharing my plan to wait for a dip around the $6M–$8M MC area
It came exactly into the zone I was waiting for, even wicking down to around $5M at one point. I aped in lightly there, and now ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 is back around $18M MC, nearly a 3x from the dip
But I wanted to give another update because this move isn’t just about the chart bouncing
The biggest thing for me is that has now publicly mentioned
@zipcoincash and its use case for funding a account privately through Zipcoin
This matters a lot more to me than another hype video or the team burning more tokens, because we’re finally starting to see the product getting attention from outside the team
The team has also expanded the flow to ETH. Instead of relying only on ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722’s own privacy pool, which is still very small, ETH can go through the larger 0xbow pool and then be converted into private DAI on
At the same time, the team donated around $10.5K to the legal defense fund for Alexey Pertsev and Roman Storm, which fits pretty well with the privacy narrative heating up again
On-chain though, I still don’t want to hype things too early
The ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 pool was still sitting at around 19 deposits in the latest snapshot I checked. Most of the larger burns are still coming from the team, and while we’re starting to see some outside wallets using Burn to Speak, the numbers are still small
I also haven’t seen enough volume from outside users through ZipTeller yet to call this adoption
So the way I see ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 right now is pretty simple.
Wave 1 was the market buying the Snowmoon + Vitalik lore
This move is starting to price in the product + external attention, especially after publicly mentioned it
But if we want a bigger and more sustainable wave from here, the next thing I want to see is still users
Deposits need to grow from 19 toward 50 and eventually 100+. I want to see real ZipTeller transactions from wallets outside the team, and organic burns need to keep growing instead of most of the activity coming from the dev
Vitalik still hasn’t endorsed ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722, and I’m not waiting for that to keep the thesis alive. If he ever interacts with it, obviously that would be a huge catalyst, but to me that’s just a bonus
As for the chart, the previous plan played out almost perfectly
The entry zone I was waiting for was $6M–$8M, and now the market has taken it all the way back to the old ATH area around $18M–$20M
From here, I’m not chasing
If it breaks ATH, holds above it, and usage starts growing alongside the price, then things get a lot more interesting
But if it simply wicks above ATH while usage stays flat, I’d still treat this as a very strong narrative squeeze rather than confirmation of wave 2
Either way, the move from the dip back to the old ATH has already been great
The chart gave us the entry. The product is starting to get outside attention. Now I’m waiting for the users
That’s the next thing I want to see from ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722

solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump is actually going crazy right now
After printing a new ATH around $8M, it barely took a break before continuing its expansion into the $13M to $14M MC range
I already covered solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump in detail in my previous update, so I don’t want to repeat the entire research again
Instead, I want to focus on one thing :
Why is solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump actually moving this hard?
I don’t think there’s a single catalyst behind it. Several things are happening at the same time, and the market is pricing them in very quickly
1. The tokenomics change is still the most important factor
This is the clearest fundamental catalyst
In my original research, I pointed out that solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump didn’t have clear value capture from activity across the entire platform. The 15% platform fee wasn’t being distributed to holders, so I didn’t want to assign utility to the token that didn’t actually exist
That has now changed
For coins that generate enough fees on AgencyPad, 15% is used to periodically market buy solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump, and the tokens purchased are then burned
In my view, this is a meaningful improvement to the tokenomics
If AgencyPad generates more activity and more fees, the potential buy pressure and amount of solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump being burned can scale alongside it
But we still need to look at the actual numbers
The last time I checked, there had been around 6 buybacks, roughly 19 SOL spent in total, and around 248K solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump burned
Obviously, 19 SOL cannot explain a move to a $13M+ market cap
So the market isn’t really pricing the amount already burned
It’s front-running the possibility that this mechanism can scale in the future
2. AgencyPad is starting to generate real fuel
Good tokenomics don’t mean much without activity behind them
And this is where things are starting to get more interesting
When I checked, solana:H7TuvDxEKygh27zGfGcjKG8JGWgrbyKpPtvJEpGosfas had reached around $1.4M MC and generated roughly $48K in fees within just a few hours
$Aiden was around $30K in fees, while $shoggoth was around $29K
This matters a lot
If coins on AgencyPad don’t generate volume, there are no meaningful fees, and the solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump buyback and burn mechanism has no fuel
But once runners start appearing and generating real activity and fees, the market naturally starts thinking further ahead
One runner generating fees is one thing
What happens if AgencyPad can consistently produce several of them at the same time?
That, in my opinion, is what the market is betting on
3. $WWW helped open up the entire meta
A big part of this move is also about attention
And I think we have to mention $WWW here
solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump actually launched roughly a day before $WWW in this current wave, but $WWW was the one that initially captured much more attention
In my original research, I also mentioned that $WWW was winning the attention game, while what interested me more about solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump was the treasury mechanism
I think $WWW played a major role in bringing CT into the broader AI agent and living token narrative
But attention on CT rarely stays on one ticker forever
As $WWW’s momentum started cooling down, alongside a lot of FUD and debate around the project, I think the market naturally started looking at other names within the same meta
And solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump was in a pretty good position to benefit from that rotation
It appeared earlier in this wave, the product was still being built, and right as attention started broadening out, its tokenomics also received a meaningful upgrade
I’m not saying $WWW goes down and that money automatically flows into $AGENCY
I think the better way to look at it is :
$WWW helped bring attention to the meta, and solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump is now capturing a larger share of that attention
4. KOLs aren’t just talking about it, some are actually buying
This is another factor that I think has amplified the move
solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump is appearing more and more across CT, from traders and researchers to larger accounts
But more importantly, this isn’t just social attention anymore
There is real capital going into the token
From the on-chain data I checked, a wallet associated with Frank bought roughly $95K worth of solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump, with the displayed average entry around $7.4M MC and no sells at the time of the snapshot
A wallet associated with rasmr also deployed around $60K, with buys around the $8M to $10M MC range
I think this creates two effects
The first is real spot demand
The second is social proof
When CT sees closely watched traders building positions, more people start researching the same ticker. If the chart keeps moving, even more people notice it, and the attention starts feeding itself
That’s why KOL participation here matters more than just another shill post
Still, KOL buying alone doesn’t prove that the current valuation is justified. It helps explain part of the capital flow and attention, but it doesn’t replace fundamentals
5. The team keeps giving the market something new to talk about
Another thing I wouldn’t ignore is that Agency hasn’t allowed the narrative to go cold
Browser capabilities, research, treasury actions, AI Influencer, and now the buyback and burn mechanism
I don’t think any single one of these features explains the chart
But when a team keeps shipping while the narrative is hot, CT constantly has something new to research and discuss
That helps attention last longer instead of the project pumping on one announcement and then disappearing
More importantly, it reinforces the perception that AgencyPad is trying to build an actual product, not just another AI ticker
6. solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump currently has two flywheels running at the same time
This is probably the simplest way I can explain the entire situation
The first is the economic flywheel
Activity on AgencyPad generates fees. Part of those fees can be used to buy and burn solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump. If the pad continues producing runners, the fuel behind this mechanism can grow
The second is the attention flywheel
$WWW helped open the meta. solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump started breaking out. Traders and KOLs began buying. CT started talking about it more. Runners appeared on AgencyPad. People returned to the pad looking for the next opportunity, bringing even more attention into the ecosystem
The two are starting to reinforce each other
But right now, I think one thing needs to be clear :
The attention flywheel is moving faster than the economic flywheel
The mechanism is real and the burns are happening, but the current scale still hasn’t caught up with the valuation
7. Liquidity and FOMO are amplifying everything
Finally, there’s the market structure itself
When you combine improved tokenomics, a hot narrative, new runners, KOL capital and an entire CT talking about the same ticker, FOMO is almost inevitable
And in a relatively thin market, new capital can push valuation much faster than fundamentals can grow
That’s why I wouldn’t look at the chart and assume solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump’s fundamentals have expanded at the same pace
The fundamentals have improved, but expectations and attention are moving faster than the fundamentals
So if you ask me why solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump is flying, I don’t think the answer is simply the buyback and burn mechanism
It’s the combination of better tokenomics, runners starting to generate fees, $WWW opening up the meta, attention rotating across CT, KOLs actually deploying capital, the team continuing to ship, and FOMO amplifying all of it
In my view, the tokenomics are clearly stronger than when I first researched solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump, but they still need time to prove they can scale
From here, I don’t need another nice announcement
I want to see more runners, sustainable fees, consistent buybacks, and the amount of solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump being burned actually increasing alongside activity on AgencyPad
If that happens, the economic flywheel can start catching up with the attention flywheel
That’s what I’ll be watching next with solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump
7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump
Show more
solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump just printed a new ATH around $10M MC
Quite a few people who followed my previous solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump plan have been asking whether the thesis has changed, so I went back and checked everything the team has shipped since my last research post
And this time, there is one update that I think actually matters
It is not a new listing or another wave of KOLs. The tokenomics of solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump itself have changed
In my previous post, I pointed out that the 15% platform fee was not distributed to solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump holders, so I did not want to assign utility to the token that did not actually exist
That has now changed
The team has plugged solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump directly into the economics of AgencyPad
Under the new mechanism, once a coin on the pad generates enough fees, 15% is used to market buy solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump periodically, and all tokens purchased are then burned on-chain
Put simply, more activity on AgencyPad means more fees are generated, and part of those fees now creates direct buy pressure on solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump before the purchased tokens are burned
This is a pretty significant change from the original thesis
Previously, the flywheel mainly existed within each individual coin. Volume generated fees, those fees funded the mind and its treasury, and the mind could then use that treasury for buybacks, burns, holder rewards, jackpots and other actions
Now, activity across the entire AgencyPad ecosystem has a direct connection back to solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump
And the mechanism has already started running
The last time I checked, the system had completed 2 buybacks, spending around 3.03 SOL in total and burning roughly 68,050 solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump
But I do not want to overhype those numbers
3 SOL of buy pressure obviously does not explain a move to $8M. The current scale is still tiny compared with the token's market cap and trading volume
What matters more to me is the potential of this mechanism if AgencyPad continues to scale. If more coins generate real volume and fees, the amount of solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump being bought and burned could scale alongside that activity
That is what I want to watch next
On the product side, the team has also launched AI Influencer. Each coin's mind can now have its own character, create content and videos, and post them on X
I do not see this as a catalyst on the same level as the tokenomics change, but it does show that the team is still shipping product
In my previous research, I said I did not want to see more narrative. I wanted to see larger treasuries, larger actions, more visible buybacks and burns, more active minds, and enough volume to keep the entire system running
Part of that thesis is now starting to show up, but in a slightly different way
solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump itself has now become part of the flywheel
As for the chart, after a move from nearly $1M to a new ATH around $10M, I do not think this is the time to FOMO
What I want to see next is whether the buybacks continue consistently, whether the size of the burns grows alongside activity on the pad, and whether there is enough sustainable volume to keep this mechanism running
If those numbers continue to scale, the solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump thesis becomes significantly stronger than it was when I published my original research
For now, the mechanism is running, but it is still far too early to call the flywheel proven
I will keep watching solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump

Previously, the flywheel mainly existed within each individual coin. Volume generated fees, those fees funded the mind and its treasury, and the mind could then use that treasury for buybacks, burns, holder rewards, jackpots and other actions

And another one I want to mention is solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump
If you just read my $WWW research, this one will probably feel familiar because both are running almost the same meta :
AI agents + launchpad + tokens with their own “mind”
But there’s one interesting detail: solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump actually launched about a day before $WWW
And after digging deeper, I found that while the narrative is similar, the flywheel behind each project is quite different
$WWW is currently winning on attention, while solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump has a treasury mechanism that I think is worth digging into
The chart also just made a pretty aggressive move from around $1.4M to a ~$3.6M ATH, so instead of chasing it here, I wanted to see what’s actually behind the move
1. What does solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump actually do?
solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump is tied to AGENCY / a Solana launchpad built around a simple concept :
“Every coin gets a mind”
Instead of launching a memecoin and basically ending there, every token launched through AGENCY can have its own AI “mind”
At launch, creators can choose from AI models such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Grok, etc. through OpenRouter
The mind can then observe the market, research the web/X, monitor holders and treasury activity, remember previous decisions, and use different capabilities provided by the platform
But the part that caught my attention the most isn’t the AI itself
It’s how creator fees are handled
According to the team’s docs, creator fees don’t simply flow back into the launcher’s wallet. The routing is designed to direct those fees into the token’s system, including AI credits + treasury, rather than letting the creator withdraw them directly
And this is where the flywheel starts
2. Volume is basically the fuel
AGENCY’s current fee model is pretty interesting
For the first $0–20 in fees, 100% goes toward model credits to wake the mind up
From $20–100, the split becomes :
50% credits / 50% treasury
After crossing $100, it changes to :
70% token treasury / 15% AI credits / 15% platform
In simple terms :
Trading => fees => treasury + compute => mind stays active => treasury can be used for new actions
And this is where the “living token” narrative actually comes from
The mind can use capabilities such as :
buybacks, burns, swaps, DCA, airdrops, jackpots, quests, contests, polls, holder rewards, treasury rebalancing, etc
So instead of the dev collecting fees and everyone having to trust that they’ll use them properly, Agency is experimenting with a different model :
route the fees into a treasury and let the mind decide how to use them within predefined rules
For me, this is the most interesting part of solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump
3. But the AI doesn’t actually control a wallet
I checked this part carefully because “AI managing a treasury” can easily be misunderstood
According to the architecture published by the team, the mind doesn’t hold private keys and doesn’t directly sign transactions
It proposes an action, but that action still has to pass through a policy engine + spending limits + separate signer before execution
Basically :
AI decides => policy checks => signer executes
It’s not like they’re giving Claude or GPT a wallet full of SOL and letting it send funds wherever it wants
I actually prefer this setup
It’s less sexy from a narrative perspective, but makes a lot more sense if the goal is for these treasuries to survive long term
4. solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump and $WWW are similar, but they’re not playing exactly the same game
This is where I think people are grouping both projects together a little too quickly
$WWW is more focused on :
compute => browser => research => memory
While the core of Agency is more like :
fees => treasury => autonomous financial actions
Put simply :
$WWW : give every coin an AI that can browse and think
solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump : give every coin a treasury and let its mind decide what to do with it
Agency has also just added browser/research capabilities for its minds, so the feature gap between the two is already getting smaller
But for me, the core Agency thesis is still the treasury
And yes, Agency launched roughly one day before $WWW in this current wave
That doesn’t mean Agency owns the concept or that $WWW copied Agency
Autonomous agents, AI treasuries and agentic tokens existed before either of them
I’m only talking about the timeline of these two tokens that CT is currently grouping into the same meta
5. More importantly, the product is actually running
One thing I like about Agency is that the team didn’t just launch a token and sit around selling the narrative
Minds on the platform have already started generating public thoughts and using actual capabilities
A few examples I checked :
$GrokBot triggered a buyback after detecting a price decline
$shoggoth graduated and then opened a jackpot/poll
Other minds have run contests, quests, jackpots or buyback/burn actions
Even solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump itself kept its mind running after graduation with a “months, not days” approach
The team also ran into an issue where the daily safety cap blocked buybacks/burns even when a treasury still had SOL, and later said they had adjusted that cap
I actually find this part interesting
Not because bugs are bullish, but because at least I’m seeing a product go through :
ship => hit problems => fix them => keep shipping
That’s better than a nice website and nothing else
But I don’t want to overhype this either
The treasury actions I’ve seen so far are still mostly only fractions of a SOL at a time
Compared with the token’s trading volume, that’s tiny
So :
having buybacks ≠ having buybacks large enough to sustain price
The mechanism is running
The economic effectiveness of that mechanism is still unproven
This is still a very early experiment
6. There are still plenty of risks
This is the part I don’t think should be ignored just because the narrative is hot
First, the token is extremely new and the chart just went vertical
Some scanners I checked also flagged bundlers at around ~18%, while liquidity at the time was only around $100K–200K against several million dollars in volume
I don’t treat a scanner flag as proof that the team is doing anything malicious
But for a freshly launched microcap, volume/liquidity like this + bundle concentration is still something I want to monitor
The team behind the platform also remains fairly anonymous, and I haven’t seen a strong independent audit that would make me treat everything described in their security architecture as third-party verified
And there’s one very important distinction :
The 15% platform fee does NOT mean solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump holders receive 15% of the revenue
I haven’t found documentation saying solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump holders directly receive that fee
So I’m not valuing solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump as a revenue-sharing token simply because the platform generates fees
If the team later introduces clear tokenomics around this, the thesis can change
For now, I’m not going to invent utility the token doesn’t have
7. How am I looking at the chart?
solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump just made a pretty clean move from roughly :
$1.4M => $3.6M MC
It’s now pulling back around the $3M+ area
I don’t like chasing here
The first area I’m watching is :
$3.0–3.1M
This is around the bottom of the recent red candle and also a clean psychological level. If it holds, the drop from ~$3.6M can still just be a normal pullback
But the area I’d be much more interested in if the market gives it back is :
$2.0–2.2M.
That’s close to the key breakout area before the latest expansion and gives me a much cleaner R:R than buying near ATH
Deeper down :
$1.4–1.7M
That’s the accumulation zone before the latest leg
If that gets lost too, then most of the current breakout has effectively been retraced and I’d reassess the thesis from scratch
So for me :
$3.0–3.1M - watch the reaction
$2.0–2.2M - the dip zone I’m most interested in.
$1.4–1.7M - final zone protecting the current structure
8. What catalysts do I want to see next?
Not another 20 KOLs tweeting about “AI agents”
I want to see the mechanism prove itself
Specifically, I want to see a mind build a large enough treasury to execute a meaningful buyback/burn that is clearly visible on-chain, rather than another 0.x SOL action
I also want to see more minds staying awake, enough volume generating fees to keep them running, and the team continuing to ship new capabilities
If volume dies => fees die => minds go to sleep, then the entire “living token” narrative starts losing its fuel
On the other hand, if activity keeps growing and treasuries start producing actions large enough for the market to actually notice, the flywheel becomes much more interesting
And there’s another indirect catalyst :
$WWW
$WWW is currently attracting more holders, liquidity and attention
If it keeps pushing the AI agent / living token narrative further, capital could easily start rotating into other names within the same meta
And Agency is one of the names I think deserves to stay on the radar
9. My final thesis
I don’t see solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump as simply “another $WWW”
They share a narrative, but they’re experimenting with two different approaches
$WWW turns fees into compute so its minds can browse/research
Agency turns fees into treasury and lets its minds decide how to use that treasury within predefined limits
Right now, $WWW is winning the attention game
But from a mechanism perspective, I think Agency is running a pretty interesting experiment
What I need next isn’t more narrative
I want to see :
larger treasuries => larger actions => visible buybacks/burns => more active minds => volume continuing to fuel the system
If those pieces start showing up while this meta stays hot, I think solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump could be one of the names capital rotates back into
But after a move from $1.4M => $3.6M, I see no reason to FOMO here
I’ll let the market give me the dip

Quite a few of you have been asking me about $MASK and wanted an update on my thesis after my previous post
About a week ago, I wrote about $MASK when it was trading around a $20M MC
At the time, my thesis mainly revolved around privacy/ZK + the ZEC narrative + tokenomics + the dev’s background, but the market was also pricing in quite a few things the team had yet to actually deliver
I didn’t want to chase after such a strong move, so I marked $12–15M as the first area I’d start paying attention, while focusing on four things: dev wallet, holder growth, ZEC payouts, and product execution
After that post, $MASK actually corrected into the $13–15M area, almost exactly the dip zone I was watching, before rebounding hard and eventually expanding to $50M+ MC
But the price action isn’t the most important part of this update
What matters more is that over the past week, some of the things the market was only pricing in back then have now started to be delivered by the team
The biggest change is that Nullmask officially went live on Ethereum mainnet on October 1
In my previous post, the product was still showing “Beta closed / Launching soon.” Nullmask already had docs, a whitepaper, and infrastructure, but the market was still pricing in a product that wasn’t actually open to users yet
That has now moved from roadmap => execution
After roughly 24 hours, the team reported more than $2M in volume and around $52K in what they call “revenue”
However, that $52K needs some context. Their analytics combine platform fees with ZEC rewards flowing into the dev wallet, while actual protocol fees were only around $10K cumulative, with on-chain data showing roughly $5K/day during the first two days
TVL was still only around $10K–15K when I checked, so it’s far too early to call this sustainable usage
A week ago, the question was :
Can the team actually ship the product?
Now the question is :
After the initial launch, can they retain volume, TVL, and users?
The second major change is that buyback + burn has also moved from narrative to execution
On September 28, the treasury/dev wallet received around 128.7 ZEC and added roughly 13.5 ZEC to LP
On September 30, the team used around $100K worth of ZEC to buy $MASK and burn it
Then on October 2, they announced another roughly $50K buyback + burn and said they plan to move toward recurring buybacks
The latest snapshot I checked shows around 0.59% of the total supply has been burned
But there’s an important distinction here
$MASK currently has two different sources of value flow: StonkFun/ZEC rewards generated through the token’s tax mechanism, and actual protocol fees generated by the Nullmask app on Ethereum
When I wrote my first post, lifetime ZEC payouts were only around $156K / ~100 ZEC
That number has now grown to around $830K+ / more than 600 ZEC
The flywheel is clearly still running strongly, but ZEC rewards are not the same thing as Nullmask protocol revenue
With actual protocol fees currently only in the range of a few thousand dollars per day, I’m not treating the $50K–100K burns as a flywheel fully funded by product revenue yet
Long term, what I want to see is whether product revenue itself can sustainably fund the buybacks
Traction around $MASK has also improved significantly
Holders are now around 10K–11K, the team’s X account has grown from below ~1K followers to around 4.6K, KCEX has listed the token on spot, and the team continues to push product and treasury updates
But the biggest risk from my original thesis is still almost completely unchanged
The creator/dev wallet still holds around 386M $MASK, close to 39% of the supply, almost unchanged from the ~38.6% I saw in my previous snapshot
So far, I haven’t seen evidence of this wallet dumping a significant amount, which is positive
But 39% of the supply is still a major concentration risk, and this remains the wallet I’ll be watching most closely
There are also several catalysts that still haven’t been delivered
The Solana privacy product is not live yet, and an external audit still hasn’t been published. BNB/Base expansion, SDK, bridge, and direct ZEC withdrawals also remain mostly roadmap items
Early Adopter Points have been announced, but I haven’t seen a clear mechanism showing direct value accrual to $MASK yet
The question around the seed round mentioned back in March versus the “no VCs / no early allocations” narrative also remains unresolved due to a lack of new information
So how has my thesis changed after one week?
Before, I saw $MASK mainly as :
Privacy/ZK + ZEC narrative + tokenomics + credible dev.
Now I think it can be upgraded to :
Ethereum product live + real protocol fees + on-chain buyback/burn + rapidly growing ZEC payouts
The team has started turning some of what the market was previously pricing in into actual execution
But I’m still not upgrading the thesis to :
Recurring users + sustainable revenue + sustainable token value accrual
The product has only been live for a few days, TVL remains small, Solana isn’t live yet, the audit is still missing, and the dev wallet still controls nearly 39% of the supply
So from here, I’m still watching the same four things :
Dev wallet. Holder growth. ZEC payouts. Product execution
And now there’s one bigger question :
Once the initial hype fades, can Nullmask turn volume into recurring users, users into sustainable revenue, and that revenue into real value accrual for $MASK?
If they can, the thesis becomes significantly stronger
For now, the most positive change is simple :
The team has started delivering things that, one week ago, the market was only pricing in , but there’s still plenty left to prove

$MASK is probably one of the hottest tokens today
A lot of you have been asking for my take on it at the current level. At the time of writing, $MASK is sitting around a $20M MC after a strong expansion into the $22–23M area
It has already moved a lot, so instead of looking at the chart and FOMOing in, I think it makes more sense to understand why $MASK pumped, what the market is pricing in, and which catalysts have actually happened
Let’s get into it
1. First, what exactly is $MASK?
$MASK is tied to Nullmask, a privacy protocol built around ZK proofs
The concept is pretty easy to understand. Instead of forcing users to create a new wallet or seed phrase, Nullmask wants to act as a privacy layer on top of your existing wallet, basically a “VPN for crypto transactions”
The goal is to let users shield information like the sender, receiver, and amount while still maintaining self-custody
What makes this more interesting is that Nullmask isn’t just a website created to build a narrative around a token
They already had docs, a whitepaper, and EVM infrastructure, with support around networks like Ethereum, Base, BSC, Arbitrum, and other EVM chains
The dev is also publicly identified. The person named on the whitepaper is Tomas Krnak, who previously received funding from the Zcash Foundation for work related to shielded transactions on hardware wallets
But one thing needs to be very clear :
$MASK is not an official token from the Zcash Foundation or Electric Coin Company
The Zcash connection mainly comes from the team’s background, the privacy tech, and the way the token is currently paired with and rewarding holders in ZEC
2. So why did $MASK pump this hard?
I think it’s a combination of several things hitting at the right time
First, the ZEC/privacy narrative is extremely hot right now
When liquidity starts rotating into privacy, a fresh Solana token with an existing product background, a public dev, and a connection to the Zcash ecosystem naturally gets attention
But what makes $MASK different from a normal privacy narrative token is its tokenomics
$MASK is paired with ZEC on StonkFun and has roughly a 3% transfer tax. Part of those fees gets converted into ZEC and distributed to eligible holders
From the snapshot I checked while writing this, around 2,030 wallets had already received ZEC, with roughly $156K worth distributed, equivalent to around 100 ZEC based on the price at the time
So the ZEC rewards aren’t just something sitting on a roadmap
They have actually been distributed
The flywheel is pretty simple :
$MASK volume generates fees => fees fund ZEC rewards => ZEC rewards create another incentive to hold $MASK
When ZEC itself already has strong attention, this becomes an easy narrative for the market to trade
But the tax works both ways
A roughly 3% transfer tax means there is friction on both buying and selling. The reward only really creates an edge if you hold long enough or receive enough ZEC to offset that cost
3. The team/dev is also a big part of the current momentum
I think this part matters quite a lot
The team is actively tying $MASK into the Nullmask product narrative through the website, whitepaper, and tokenomics updates
The token is now directly featured on the Nullmask homepage, while the team has also been talking about ZEC rewards and the thesis that 100% of protocol revenue will be used to buy back $MASK
For a token that is only a few days old, having the team behind an existing product actively pushing the narrative naturally creates more trust and attention
But I wouldn’t call this a huge organic community yet
The official social account was still below roughly 1K followers in the snapshot I checked
So right now, I see the momentum as more :
Team-driven momentum + ZEC season + tokenomics fitting the narrative
rather than a massive organic community already forming around it
4. The product is real, but we need to separate the product from what the token is pricing in
This is probably the most important part
Nullmask does have real EVM infrastructure. There are docs, a whitepaper, and contracts
But the website currently still says :
Beta closed / Launching soon
The docs I checked are also still mainly focused on EVM. Solana isn’t clearly listed among the supported networks for the privacy product yet
In simple terms :
$MASK has already launched and is trading on Solana, but the privacy product on Solana is not something that is broadly live yet
The same applies to buybacks
The team says 100% of protocol revenue will be used to buy back $MASK, but I haven’t seen a clear enough dashboard showing meaningful protocol revenue already generating large on-chain buybacks
A public external audit, the app/extension reopening, Solana integration, CEX listings, user/TVL numbers, and meaningful protocol revenue are still potential catalysts ahead
So the market is currently pricing in a decent amount of expectation, not just execution that has already happened
5. There are also some on-chain numbers I can’t ignore
After a move this aggressive, distribution matters even more
Based on the snapshot I have, the creator/dev wallet holds around 38.6% of the supply, while the Top 10 are around 51–52%
Bundlers are around 8–9%, insiders roughly 2.5–2.8%, while smart money is only around 1.3–1.4%
Liquidity is also relatively thin compared with the market cap, so if meaningful sell pressure appears, downside can move much faster than people expect
Having a public dev with a real background is definitely positive for the narrative
But :
A doxxed dev doesn’t make concentration risk disappear
For me, that ~38.6% dev wallet is one of the most important things to monitor from here. If it remains stable through corrections, the thesis looks much healthier than if distribution starts appearing
Also, all of these numbers are only a snapshot at the time of writing. With such a new token, holder distribution, dev balances, and payouts can change quickly, so re-check the on-chain data before entering
6. There is one funding detail I still have questions about
Back in March, the team mentioned that they were raising a seed round
Meanwhile, the current tokenomics narrative emphasizes “no VCs / no early allocations”
Those two things are not necessarily contradictory. The round may never have closed, or the funding may not have involved any token allocation
But with the information I currently have, there isn’t enough evidence for me to draw a conclusion
So for now, I’m simply keeping this as something that still needs verification rather than treating it as a confirmed red flag
7. The next catalysts will determine whether $MASK can hold this valuation
After a move like this, the market needs more execution to justify a higher valuation
What I’m watching for next is :
The app/extension going public again, official Solana support, a published external audit, real protocol-revenue buybacks appearing on-chain, continued growth in ZEC payouts, CEX listings, or clearer user/revenue numbers
If these things start happening, the thesis could upgrade from :
Privacy + ZEC narrative + tokenomics
to :
Product + users + revenue + token value accrual
That would be a much more meaningful catalyst
On the other hand, if a few weeks pass and the website still says “Launching soon,” the Solana product still isn’t live, buybacks remain unverified, and the ZEC narrative cools off, then defending the current valuation becomes much harder
8. My plan for $MASK
At around $20M MC after an almost vertical move, I don’t consider this a dip
I don’t like chasing after the market has already priced in a lot of catalysts within such a short period
If we get a correction, $12–15M is the first area where I’d start paying attention. Even then, I’d still consider it a shallow dip and would only be interested if volume and holder growth remain healthy
The area I’m more interested in is $7–10M
If the market resets into that range while the dev isn’t selling, holders aren’t collapsing, liquidity remains healthy, and ZEC payouts keep running, the risk/reward becomes much easier for me to evaluate
$4–6M would be the deep-dip zone. The valuation becomes more attractive there, but the risk is obviously much higher, so I’d only consider it if the original thesis remains intact
If that area is lost while the dev wallet starts selling, holders drop hard, and volume disappears, I’d rather reassess the entire thesis than try to catch a falling knife
9. Final thoughts
I understand why $MASK has become one of the most talked-about names in the current privacy meta
It has a lot of what the market currently likes :
Privacy/ZK narrative, ZEC exposure, a public dev, a real product background, actual ZEC rewards, and a team actively pushing the token
But on the other side, the market is also pricing in quite a few things that haven’t happened yet
The Solana product isn’t broadly live yet, protocol buybacks still lack clear on-chain data, the social community remains relatively small, and the supply concentration in the dev wallet is something I can’t ignore
So at the current level, I’m not chasing
$12–15M is where I start watching, $7–10M is the main zone I’m interested in, while $4–6M is the deep-dip zone if the thesis remains intact
From here, instead of staring at the chart every minute, I’ll mainly be watching four things :
Dev wallet, holder growth, ZEC payouts, and product execution
If those four continue moving in the right direction even after the initial hype cools down, that’s when $MASK becomes much more interesting to me

Quick update on $HOOKED following my previous research
When I wrote the original post, $HOOKED was trading around the $7–8M market cap range. Since then, it has expanded to around $13M, with a wick as high as $16–17M
But what interests me more than the price action is what has changed behind the scenes
The flywheel is still running. Last time, the dashboard showed around 25.7M $HOOKED burned and roughly 865 SOL used for buybacks. The latest snapshot has increased to around 38.07M $HOOKED burned, equivalent to ~3.8% of the supply, with approximately 2,214 SOL in total protocol fees and around 1,882 SOL used for buybacks
The number of launches has also grown quickly, from roughly 285 to nearly 500 tokens. The team continues to ship new Transfer Hook use cases such as Pump App-only, Social Trading Hook, and OpenSea-only, alongside sliding caps, sniper-fee caps, market hours, and other rules
The positive takeaway here is that the product hasn’t stood still while the token pumped. Platform activity is still generating fees, and the flywheel continues to market buy and burn $HOOKED
However, the one thing I was waiting for in my previous research still hasn’t really appeared :
A proven runner
Right now, $HAMSTER at around $2.3M MC is the most notable token on the pad, followed by $FOMO at around $1M. But both are still relatively new. $HOOKDOG has already graduated, but its market cap remains only a few hundred thousand dollars
For me, the number of launches matters much less than whether a token can retain liquidity, holders, and most importantly volume after the initial hype fades
At the end of the day, $HOOKED doesn’t need these tokens to hold $HOOKED. It needs their trading volume to generate protocol fees, which then continue feeding the buyback/burn mechanism
There’s also one point I want to correct from my previous post
I previously mentioned a public on-chain compilation that recorded roughly 2,080 SOL claimed by the creator/dev wallet. With a more complete breakdown, this appears to be primarily pool fees from the $HOOKED Meteora pool itself, including fees from the initial curve and the LP position after graduation
It should not be interpreted as the team withdrawing 2,080 SOL from the flywheel
These are two separate flows of funds, and the flywheel itself is still operating, with the dashboard showing around 1,882 SOL used for buybacks
That said, the creator/dev wallet is still something I’m monitoring closely :
Dpmutmc4ZLqvJwHbwabvKYeFJ9zkQ86nutUAUviRrXG2
The wallet continues to claim pool fees, and the latest snapshot showed it holding around $127–128K USDC, up from roughly $110K when I checked previously
What I still haven’t seen the team publicly explain is the flow involving Privacy Cash. A previous third-party on-chain reconciliation recorded roughly $160K USDC being deposited there
This doesn’t prove anything malicious is happening, but it remains a transparency question that I’d like to see addressed more clearly
So my current thesis on $HOOKED is actually pretty simple
Compared with my first post, the product has progressed, the flywheel is stronger, more tokens have been burned, the number of launches has increased, and the price action confirms that attention is clearly here
But the valuation is also significantly higher now, while two major questions remain :
Can Hooked produce a real runner that generates sustainable volume?
And will the team provide more transparency around the creator/dev wallet flows?
From here, I don’t really care if the team adds another 10 or 20 hooks
What I want to see is a token on the pad survive beyond the initial hype and continue generating volume, the flywheel keep growing even as attention cools down, and a clearer explanation of the wallet flows
$HOOKED has already proven that this narrative can attract attention
The next step is proving that this attention can be converted into recurring volume, recurring fees, and an ecosystem that can actually survive beyond the hype
That’s what I’ll be watching from here

And next up is solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE, a name that has been getting quite a lot of attention after running from below $1M to nearly $10M market cap
Instead of just looking at the chart, I dug deeper into the product, flywheel, and especially the creator/dev wallet to see what is actually behind this move
Let’s break it down
1. What is Hooked actually building?
What caught my attention is that Hooked isn’t simply another launchpad on Solana
Hooked is built around Token-2022 Transfer Hooks, allowing creators to embed certain rules directly into the token’s transfer process
For example :
> Anti-bundle
> Anti-dump
> Max wallet
> Holder vesting
> Allowlist
> DEX-only
> Market hours
> FOMO-only buys
> Sniper fee cap
Whenever a token is transferred or swapped, the hook program checks the transaction. If it violates the configured rule, the transaction can be rejected directly on-chain
Simply put, instead of relying entirely on a frontend, bots, or separate infrastructure for protection, Hooked moves part of that logic to the on-chain level
That’s what I find interesting about the product
2. A few things you need to understand
Transfer Hooks don’t necessarily stay forever
If a creator chooses a Graduating Curve, once the token reaches graduation, the transfer hook can be removed during migration. After that, the token trades more like a normal token and the previous restrictions may no longer be enforced
With a Permanent Curve, the hook remains active
So features like anti-dump, max wallet, or anti-bundle are not automatically permanent for every token launched through Hooked
Another thing worth noting is that the hook program can still be upgraded by Hooked’s deploy authority to fix bugs or update the program
The rules are enforced on-chain and don’t simply depend on the frontend, but there is still a certain level of trust involved with the team and program authority
There is also one important distinction around fees
When Hooked says “fees do not go to the creator,” that refers to protocol fees generated by tokens launched through the platform. It doesn’t necessarily mean the team cannot receive other types of fees related to the solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE pool itself
So it’s important to separate protocol flywheel fees from solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE pool fees before looking at creator wallet activity
3. The flywheel is where solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE gets interesting
The technology creates the narrative, but the flywheel is what connects platform activity directly back to solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE
According to the mechanism, every trade on a Hooked bonding curve pays a 1% protocol fee
Of that :
85% is used to market buy solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE and burn it
15% goes toward development
The flywheel is pretty straightforward :
More launches => More volume => More fees => More solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE buybacks => More burn
If the platform actually scales, activity on Hooked creates direct demand for solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE instead of the token relying purely on speculation
More importantly, this mechanism is already operating on-chain, not just sitting on a roadmap
At the time I checked, the dashboard had recorded roughly 25.7M solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE burned, with around 865 SOL used for buybacks
So at the very least, the flywheel has already started working in practice
But I still think it’s too early to extrapolate a few days of activity into a long-term trend
What matters more is whether volume, fee revenue, and the pace of buybacks can remain sustainable once the initial hype cools down
4. Hooked still needs a real runner
The number of tokens launching on the platform is growing quickly, but quantity isn’t the metric I care about most
A launchpad can create hundreds of tokens, but if most of them stall at a few thousand dollars in market cap, the ecosystem still won’t generate sustainable volume
What I want to see is :
Token graduates => maintains liquidity => retains holders => continues generating volume
Right now, most of the launches I’ve seen are still relatively small, and there hasn’t been a major runner yet that truly proves the model
If Hooked starts producing a few real runners, the thesis becomes much stronger
At that point, the flywheel would no longer be fueled purely by speculative volume from newly launched tokens
It would start being supported by real ecosystem activity
That’s the catalyst I care about most
5. Creator/dev wallet
This is where things get more interesting when looking deeper on-chain
The wallet associated with the creator/dev side :
Dpmutmc4ZLqvJwHbwabvKYeFJ9zkQ86nutUAUviRrXG2
This wallet has been claiming fees from the solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE pool, with part of the SOL later being swapped into USDC
At the time I checked, the wallet was still holding around 110K USDC, while fee claims continued to appear
A public compilation of on-chain transactions covering September 28 to October 1 recorded roughly 2,080 SOL in pool fees claimed, with around 1,970 SOL swapped into USDC and approximately 160.8K USDC later flowing into Privacy Cash
Some of the larger transactions cited include roughly 652 SOL claimed, 955 SOL swapped, and 103.2K USDC deposited
I still treat the aggregate figures above as reference data from a public on-chain compilation, since I haven’t reconciled every individual transaction myself
What can be seen directly on-chain, however, is that the wallet has been claiming fees, converting part of them into USDC, and holding a significant amount of stablecoins
The fact that the team is claiming pool fees doesn’t automatically mean they are dumping or that something is wrong with the project
As mentioned earlier, solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE pool fees and the 1% protocol fee feeding the flywheel need to be treated separately, because they are not necessarily the same flow of funds
What interests me more is where the money goes after being claimed
If the USDC flow into Privacy Cash is fully confirmed, tracking the final destination of those funds becomes much more difficult
That doesn’t prove the team is doing anything malicious, but it clearly reduces transparency from a holder’s perspective
So I’d like to see the team provide more clarity around where these pool fees come from, how they are allocated, and the purpose of funds moving through Privacy Cash
Until then, this remains one of the main risks I’ll continue monitoring with solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE
6. Don’t just look at dev holdings
This is also why I’m not only checking how much of the supply the dev currently holds
For a token directly tied to a platform, cash flow can be just as important as token holdings
If the ecosystem generates revenue through fees, the team doesn’t necessarily need to sell large amounts of solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE to monetize platform activity
So what I want to track is :
Fees generated => wallet receiving the fees => what those assets are converted into => where the funds eventually go
That gives me much more context than simply looking at holder distribution
7. What about the chart?
solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE’s price action is obviously strong
The token ran from below $1M to nearly $10M market cap, and despite the volatility afterward, it has managed to hold a significant part of that expansion, trading around the $7–8M range on the chart I’m watching
That shows the narrative has attracted attention very quickly
But the risk/reward is also completely different from when the token was below $1M
At the current valuation, the market is already pricing in quite a few expectations :
Hooked continues attracting users
More tokens continue launching
Volume continues growing
The flywheel keeps buying back solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE
And eventually, the platform produces runners large enough to keep the ecosystem active
So I no longer consider solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE an early discovery at these levels
From here, execution starts to matter more than narrative
8. The thesis from here is pretty simple
The bull case for solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE is easy to understand
Hooked has real technical differentiation through Token-2022 Transfer Hooks
Platform activity generates fees
Those fees create market buys for solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE
The purchased tokens are burned
If Hooked starts producing successful launches, the loop could become :
Better launches => More users => More volume => More fees => More solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE buybacks => More attention => More launches
But the other side is just as clear
If most tokens launched on Hooked die quickly, the initial hype fades, and no real runners emerge, fee generation will decline
Buybacks decline
Burns decline
And one of the most important parts of the solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE thesis becomes weaker
On top of that, there are still questions around the creator wallet and transparency of the pool fee flows
9. What am I watching next?
I don’t need Hooked to announce another twenty new rules to become more bullish
I want to see real usage
A few tokens graduating and surviving afterward
Volume remaining active after the initial hype
Fee revenue continuing to come in
Buybacks and burns continuing even as attention cools down
And most importantly, I’d like to see a clearer explanation around the creator/dev wallet and the pool fee flows
If these things start happening together, the solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE thesis becomes significantly stronger
At that point, the story is no longer simply a new token with a Transfer Hook narrative
It becomes a launchpad with real activity, where ecosystem volume directly creates buy pressure and reduces the supply of its native token
For now, I’m keeping a neutral view
The technology is real. The flywheel is already running. The price action is strong
But Hooked is still too new to prove sustainable demand, and wallet flows are still something I want more transparency on before having stronger conviction
Instead of FOMOing the chart or FUDing the project just because the team is claiming fees, I’d rather keep watching product adoption, fee generation, and on-chain flows and let the data speak for itself

And I’m sure most of you already know that I’ve mentioned $SC before
After following it more closely, I think this could be one of the next names worth watching within the Snowmoon narrative
Silverchat is inspired by Chapter 27 of Vitalik’s Snowmoon and has a pretty natural connection with ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 :
ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 = currency
$SC = network
What I find interesting is that Silverchat is actually using ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 as the currency inside its ecosystem, which is pretty close to how these two concepts are connected in the novel
But I’m not looking at $SC just because of the lore
The team is also building a prediction market, along with a more open social/community layer that feels somewhat like a decentralized forum where people can interact and participate directly within the ecosystem
I’m also hearing that they may add a mini social layer, where protocol fees could be used to buy back and burn $SC
I’m still waiting for the team to confirm and actually ship this part. But if it gets implemented as described, the $SC flywheel could become a lot more interesting because product activity would start creating direct demand for the token :
More users => more activity => more protocol fees => buyback + burn $SC
And that’s the part I’ll be watching closely
I already have a position in $SC
I’m not saying $SC will necessarily repeat what ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 did just because they both come from the same Snowmoon lore. ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 has already had its own wave and built its own product, while $SC still needs to prove that the team can execute and actually bring users into the network
But at this stage, I think $SC has a setup worth keeping on the radar :
The Snowmoon narrative still has attention, there’s a direct connection with ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722, the product is being built, and there are still potential catalysts ahead
If the team actually ships the prediction market, expands the social layer, and gets the buyback + burn mechanism running, the thesis becomes much stronger than simply being another token riding the same lore
I already have my position. Now I’m watching to see how well the team executes from here
ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 is the currency
$SC wants to become the network
Let’s see if they can actually build it

Quite a few people have been asking me about ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 over the past few days, so I spent some time going through the narrative, product, docs, and on-chain data to see what this actually has beyond the Vitalik name
Just to make one thing clear first : this is not Vitalik’s token, and Vitalik has not endorsed it
Let’s break it down
1. The ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 narrative
The story starts with Vitalik’s Snowmoon
In the book, there’s a currency called Zipcoin built around privacy, anonymous payments, and an interesting concept where you burn money to give a message value
After the book came out, a bunch of tokens tried to copy the narrative
What makes ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 more interesting is that the team didn’t just take the ticker and build some lore around it. They actually tried to turn concepts from the book into a working product on Ethereum
So I see it more as a literary meme with a working product behind it, rather than a mature privacy protocol
2. Zip and Unzip
This is the core of the product
Users can Zip ZC into a Privacy Pool and later Unzip it into a fresh wallet using a ZK proof
The idea is to break the direct on-chain link between the wallet depositing the tokens and the wallet receiving them
A relayer can also handle gas for the new wallet, so you don’t need to fund it with ETH from your original wallet first
The concept is interesting, but adoption is still the problem
The last snapshot I checked showed only around 9 deposits in the Privacy Pool
Privacy depends heavily on the anonymity set. The fewer people using the pool, the weaker the actual privacy becomes
So the tech is live, but usage is still extremely early
3. Burn to Speak and Doorstep
These are probably the two most degen features
Burn to Speak lets users burn at least 1,000 ZC to post an on-chain message. The more ZC you burn, the higher your message gets ranked
Doorstep lets you choose an ENS or address, burn ZC to “knock on their door” and leave a message. You can even send ZC privately alongside it
The concept is pretty easy to understand :
If you want to be heard, you have to burn money
But organic usage is still weak
Doorstep only had a little over a dozen interactions in the snapshot I checked, and most of the notable activity was still related to the team/dev
So seeing vitalik.eth everywhere doesn’t mean the community is massively using the feature
4. Tokenomics and the flywheel
The initial supply is 1B ZC. The docs and current token contract don’t have a mint function
However, the Entrypoint can still be upgraded, so I wouldn’t call the entire system completely immutable
The more interesting part for me is the fee structure
Trading generates ETH fees for the treasury. The treasury can then be used for buybacks, while activities like Zip and Unzip also have their own fees
On paper, the flywheel looks pretty good :
Volume generates fees
Fees feed the treasury
Treasury funds buybacks
Usage creates burns
Burns reduce supply
But right now, only the first half of that flywheel has really been proven: volume, fees, and buybacks
The second half, organic user-driven burns, is barely proven at all
That distinction matters because if you only look at the amount of supply burned, it’s easy to mistake it for real user demand
5. 8.5% burned and 4% sitting in vitalik.eth
According to the snapshot I checked, around 8.5% of the supply has already been burned
Around 40M ZC, roughly 4% of the supply, also sits in vitalik.eth
Both numbers look great at first glance
But most of the major early burns came from the team/dev
And the 40M ZC in vitalik.eth was not bought by Vitalik. The team used the project’s own mechanism to send those tokens to his address
Vitalik hasn’t bought, endorsed, or confirmed any involvement with the project
So I don’t use the 8.5% burn as proof of organic demand, and I definitely don’t treat “Vitalik holds 4%” as smart money accumulation
For now, both are much more relevant to the narrative than actual adoption
6. The product is real, the adoption isn’t there yet
This is probably the simplest way I look at ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722
The Privacy Pool is real
Zip and Unzip are real
Burn to Speak is real
Doorstep is real
The fee and buyback mechanisms are real
So I wouldn’t call ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 an empty token
But the number of people actually using these features outside the team is still very small
I don’t need ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 to become Zcash. I just need to see deposits and burns coming from wallets that aren’t connected to the team. Until then, the valuation is still mostly narrative premium
ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 has already proven “we built it”
Now they need to prove “people actually use it”
7. What could trigger the next wave?
The first wave was pretty straightforward
Snowmoon came out, the Vitalik narrative started spreading, the market went looking for Zipcoin, and ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 got repriced very quickly
But I think a lot of that catalyst has already been priced in
The next wave needs external validation
I want to see the Privacy Pool go from a handful of deposits to dozens or even hundreds
I want to see wallets unrelated to the team actually Zip, Unzip, and burn ZC
If a KOL, ETH dev, or large account starts genuinely using the product, the narrative becomes much stronger
The biggest wildcard is obviously Vitalik
He doesn’t even need to endorse the token. A single public interaction with the concept or implementation could completely change how the market looks at ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722
But I wouldn’t build my thesis around that happening
Vitalik staying completely silent is also a very realistic outcome
8. Risks
This is still extremely early, so there are plenty of risks
Adoption is low, some parts remain unaudited, and the Entrypoint is still upgradeable
also previously flagged a wallet cluster around launch involving roughly 46% of the supply
That doesn’t prove all of those tokens belong to one entity, but it’s still an on-chain risk worth keeping in mind
The biggest risk, though, is attention
If the Snowmoon and Vitalik narrative cools off before organic usage appears, the product can keep working, but the market has no obligation to keep paying a premium for the token
9. The dip zones I’m watching
For ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722, I prefer looking at market cap rather than token price
I’m using the first wave ATH around $18M MC as my reference at the time of writing
$12M–$15M: I don’t really consider this a dip. There’s still a lot of narrative premium here. If it bounces into this range and gets rejected, I’d see it more as a relief bounce than an area where I want to size up
$8M–$10M: This is more of a temporary equilibrium zone, roughly around half of the ATH. The chart can hold here, but I’d want to see volume come back. If price holds while usage is still mostly team-driven, the thesis hasn’t changed much for me
$6M–$8M: This is the dip zone I’m most interested in. The valuation becomes much more reasonable compared to the first wave. But I’m not blindly bidding it. I want to see the chart stop bleeding, volume remain healthy, and Zip or burn activity start coming from wallets outside the team
Below $5M: It looks cheaper, but it could also simply mean attention is dying. If organic usage still isn’t growing, a lower market cap doesn’t automatically make it a bargain
For me, $6M–$8M is the most interesting zone to watch, but price gives me the entry while usage gives me conviction
If it loses $6M while usage still isn’t improving, I have no reason to catch the knife
10. My thesis
The way I see ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 right now is pretty simple
Wave 1 was the market buying Vitalik + Snowmoon
If there’s a Wave 2, the market needs to start buying usage
ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 is not Vitalik’s token
It’s also not a mature privacy protocol
But I think it’s more interesting than most literary memes because the team actually turned the lore into a working product
The narrative is there
The product is there
What’s still missing is the users
If organic usage starts showing up, I think the market has a reason to reprice ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 again
If not, then at the end of the day, it’s still a narrative trade with a product behind it
That’s what I’ll be watching next with ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722

And another one I want to mention is solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump
If you just read my $WWW research, this one will probably feel familiar because both are running almost the same meta :
AI agents + launchpad + tokens with their own “mind”
But there’s one interesting detail: solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump actually launched about a day before $WWW
And after digging deeper, I found that while the narrative is similar, the flywheel behind each project is quite different
$WWW is currently winning on attention, while solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump has a treasury mechanism that I think is worth digging into
The chart also just made a pretty aggressive move from around $1.4M to a ~$3.6M ATH, so instead of chasing it here, I wanted to see what’s actually behind the move
1. What does solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump actually do?
solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump is tied to AGENCY / a Solana launchpad built around a simple concept :
“Every coin gets a mind”
Instead of launching a memecoin and basically ending there, every token launched through AGENCY can have its own AI “mind”
At launch, creators can choose from AI models such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Grok, etc. through OpenRouter
The mind can then observe the market, research the web/X, monitor holders and treasury activity, remember previous decisions, and use different capabilities provided by the platform
But the part that caught my attention the most isn’t the AI itself
It’s how creator fees are handled
According to the team’s docs, creator fees don’t simply flow back into the launcher’s wallet. The routing is designed to direct those fees into the token’s system, including AI credits + treasury, rather than letting the creator withdraw them directly
And this is where the flywheel starts
2. Volume is basically the fuel
AGENCY’s current fee model is pretty interesting
For the first $0–20 in fees, 100% goes toward model credits to wake the mind up
From $20–100, the split becomes :
50% credits / 50% treasury
After crossing $100, it changes to :
70% token treasury / 15% AI credits / 15% platform
In simple terms :
Trading => fees => treasury + compute => mind stays active => treasury can be used for new actions
And this is where the “living token” narrative actually comes from
The mind can use capabilities such as :
buybacks, burns, swaps, DCA, airdrops, jackpots, quests, contests, polls, holder rewards, treasury rebalancing, etc
So instead of the dev collecting fees and everyone having to trust that they’ll use them properly, Agency is experimenting with a different model :
route the fees into a treasury and let the mind decide how to use them within predefined rules
For me, this is the most interesting part of solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump
3. But the AI doesn’t actually control a wallet
I checked this part carefully because “AI managing a treasury” can easily be misunderstood
According to the architecture published by the team, the mind doesn’t hold private keys and doesn’t directly sign transactions
It proposes an action, but that action still has to pass through a policy engine + spending limits + separate signer before execution
Basically :
AI decides => policy checks => signer executes
It’s not like they’re giving Claude or GPT a wallet full of SOL and letting it send funds wherever it wants
I actually prefer this setup
It’s less sexy from a narrative perspective, but makes a lot more sense if the goal is for these treasuries to survive long term
4. solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump and $WWW are similar, but they’re not playing exactly the same game
This is where I think people are grouping both projects together a little too quickly
$WWW is more focused on :
compute => browser => research => memory
While the core of Agency is more like :
fees => treasury => autonomous financial actions
Put simply :
$WWW : give every coin an AI that can browse and think
solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump : give every coin a treasury and let its mind decide what to do with it
Agency has also just added browser/research capabilities for its minds, so the feature gap between the two is already getting smaller
But for me, the core Agency thesis is still the treasury
And yes, Agency launched roughly one day before $WWW in this current wave
That doesn’t mean Agency owns the concept or that $WWW copied Agency
Autonomous agents, AI treasuries and agentic tokens existed before either of them
I’m only talking about the timeline of these two tokens that CT is currently grouping into the same meta
5. More importantly, the product is actually running
One thing I like about Agency is that the team didn’t just launch a token and sit around selling the narrative
Minds on the platform have already started generating public thoughts and using actual capabilities
A few examples I checked :
$GrokBot triggered a buyback after detecting a price decline
$shoggoth graduated and then opened a jackpot/poll
Other minds have run contests, quests, jackpots or buyback/burn actions
Even solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump itself kept its mind running after graduation with a “months, not days” approach
The team also ran into an issue where the daily safety cap blocked buybacks/burns even when a treasury still had SOL, and later said they had adjusted that cap
I actually find this part interesting
Not because bugs are bullish, but because at least I’m seeing a product go through :
ship => hit problems => fix them => keep shipping
That’s better than a nice website and nothing else
But I don’t want to overhype this either
The treasury actions I’ve seen so far are still mostly only fractions of a SOL at a time
Compared with the token’s trading volume, that’s tiny
So :
having buybacks ≠ having buybacks large enough to sustain price
The mechanism is running
The economic effectiveness of that mechanism is still unproven
This is still a very early experiment
6. There are still plenty of risks
This is the part I don’t think should be ignored just because the narrative is hot
First, the token is extremely new and the chart just went vertical
Some scanners I checked also flagged bundlers at around ~18%, while liquidity at the time was only around $100K–200K against several million dollars in volume
I don’t treat a scanner flag as proof that the team is doing anything malicious
But for a freshly launched microcap, volume/liquidity like this + bundle concentration is still something I want to monitor
The team behind the platform also remains fairly anonymous, and I haven’t seen a strong independent audit that would make me treat everything described in their security architecture as third-party verified
And there’s one very important distinction :
The 15% platform fee does NOT mean solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump holders receive 15% of the revenue
I haven’t found documentation saying solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump holders directly receive that fee
So I’m not valuing solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump as a revenue-sharing token simply because the platform generates fees
If the team later introduces clear tokenomics around this, the thesis can change
For now, I’m not going to invent utility the token doesn’t have
7. How am I looking at the chart?
solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump just made a pretty clean move from roughly :
$1.4M => $3.6M MC
It’s now pulling back around the $3M+ area
I don’t like chasing here
The first area I’m watching is :
$3.0–3.1M
This is around the bottom of the recent red candle and also a clean psychological level. If it holds, the drop from ~$3.6M can still just be a normal pullback
But the area I’d be much more interested in if the market gives it back is :
$2.0–2.2M.
That’s close to the key breakout area before the latest expansion and gives me a much cleaner R:R than buying near ATH
Deeper down :
$1.4–1.7M
That’s the accumulation zone before the latest leg
If that gets lost too, then most of the current breakout has effectively been retraced and I’d reassess the thesis from scratch
So for me :
$3.0–3.1M - watch the reaction
$2.0–2.2M - the dip zone I’m most interested in.
$1.4–1.7M - final zone protecting the current structure
8. What catalysts do I want to see next?
Not another 20 KOLs tweeting about “AI agents”
I want to see the mechanism prove itself
Specifically, I want to see a mind build a large enough treasury to execute a meaningful buyback/burn that is clearly visible on-chain, rather than another 0.x SOL action
I also want to see more minds staying awake, enough volume generating fees to keep them running, and the team continuing to ship new capabilities
If volume dies => fees die => minds go to sleep, then the entire “living token” narrative starts losing its fuel
On the other hand, if activity keeps growing and treasuries start producing actions large enough for the market to actually notice, the flywheel becomes much more interesting
And there’s another indirect catalyst :
$WWW
$WWW is currently attracting more holders, liquidity and attention
If it keeps pushing the AI agent / living token narrative further, capital could easily start rotating into other names within the same meta
And Agency is one of the names I think deserves to stay on the radar
9. My final thesis
I don’t see solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump as simply “another $WWW”
They share a narrative, but they’re experimenting with two different approaches
$WWW turns fees into compute so its minds can browse/research
Agency turns fees into treasury and lets its minds decide how to use that treasury within predefined limits
Right now, $WWW is winning the attention game
But from a mechanism perspective, I think Agency is running a pretty interesting experiment
What I need next isn’t more narrative
I want to see :
larger treasuries => larger actions => visible buybacks/burns => more active minds => volume continuing to fuel the system
If those pieces start showing up while this meta stays hot, I think solana:7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump could be one of the names capital rotates back into
But after a move from $1.4M => $3.6M, I see no reason to FOMO here
I’ll let the market give me the dip

Quite a few people have been asking me about $WWW today
This is one of the hottest launches right now, hitting an ATH of around $8.4M within its first ~8 hours, and trading around $6M–7M MC when I checked
Instead of chasing the chart, I dug deeper into the product, narrative, fee mechanism, on-chain data, bundle cluster, and notable wallets behind it
Let’s break it down
1. What is $WWW?
$WWW is the flagship token of a platform where each token can come with its own AI agent, which the team calls a “symbient”
These agents can use models like Claude, GPT, or Grok through OpenRouter, while also having access to a cloud browser that allows them to browse the web, research information, and retain memory between runs
The core flywheel is pretty simple n:
Trading => Fees => Compute => AI activity => Content/Attention => Trading
Creator fees are used to fund the compute vault that keeps the agent running. Once the compute runs out, the agent stops until it gets funded again
This is how the team describes the mechanism, though I haven’t independently audited the entire flow of funds yet
2. The narrative
WWW positions itself within this lineage :
Infinite Backrooms => Truth Terminal => Mycelial Oracle => World Wide Web
The idea is to take AI agents beyond just conversations, give them an environment to “live” on the web, and provide them with a token economy to sustain their activity
$WWW currently runs Claude and focuses heavily on machine life / synthetic biology
I saw the agent researching protein design, RFdiffusion, nanopore synthesis, and other related topics
But there’s an important distinction :
Reading and summarizing research ≠ creating new scientific discoveries
So far, I haven’t seen evidence of the latter
3. The product is real, but still very early
This isn’t just an AI narrative with a ticker attached
The browser agent is actually running, and the team has been actively fixing browser issues, re-indexing tokens, adding disclaimers, and allowing creators to modify allowlists, capabilities, or APIs through wallet signatures
When I checked, the platform showed roughly 1,500 coins, ~2,100 SOL in compute, 70–80 symbients, and ~1,300 findings
However, most of the “findings” I saw still looked more like AI summaries and interpretations of existing information rather than genuine discoveries
Another thing worth noting: despite the autonomous AI narrative, creators still retain some control over their agents
That isn’t necessarily bad for such an early product, but it means the system is not fully autonomous or immutable yet
4. On-chain is where things get interesting
This is also where I start becoming more cautious
Different trackers are showing different bundle estimates, so I wouldn’t treat 55% bundled as an exact figure at this point
What matters more is that there appears to be a fairly large launch cluster connected through the same funding source
The dev currently shows 0% holdings, mint/freeze authority is disabled, and individual top holders don’t look extremely concentrated
Another positive point is that around 17M $WWW tokens have already been locked, reducing the amount of supply that can immediately enter the market
But :
0% dev holdings + locked supply doesn’t automatically mean clean distribution
If multiple wallets were funded from the same source and bought right at launch, looking at each wallet individually can still hide the real concentration
So rather than focusing only on the bundle percentage, I’m watching how much unlocked supply these connected wallets still control and whether they start distributing together
5. Frank is the interesting part
This is probably the most interesting on-chain detail I found
Frank’s wallet appears directly on the bubble map within the funding network connected to $WWW’s bundle cluster
And Frank actually has a sizeable position
According to GMGN, Frank bought roughly $118.7K across 15 transactions, with an average entry around $3.5M MC
He later sold around $61.3K, but when I checked, he was still holding roughly 11.7M $WWW, representing more than 1% of the current supply
So Frank has already taken some profit but is still letting a meaningful position run
More importantly, the funding connection between Frank’s wallet and the bundle cluster is something I’ll continue watching
This connection alone isn’t enough to prove that Frank is part of the team, that these wallets share the same owner, or that they are coordinating
But if Frank starts selling heavily while the connected bundle wallets begin distributing at the same time, then this connection becomes much more relevant
6. The fee flow still needs more transparency
Based on the data I checked, the creator has already claimed roughly 640+ SOL in fees
The team says these fees are used to fund the compute vault, but the amount claimed currently looks significantly larger than the compute consumption I can directly observe
So I want more clarity on three things :
> How much of the fees actually go into the vault?
> How much has actually been spent on compute?
> Where are the claimed funds going?
More transparency here would resolve one of the biggest question marks around the project
7. Attention is growing quickly
@www_stream had around 2.9K followers when I checked, with quite a few crypto traders/KOLs appearing in its follower network
That’s a good sign for attention, but :
Follow ≠ endorsement
Endorsement ≠ buy
A stronger catalyst would be direct public interaction from people connected to previous AI narratives, such as Andy Ayrey, Truth Terminal, Repligate, James Greig/Wib&Wob, or Mycelial Oracle
I haven’t seen strong external confirmation like that yet
8. The $Agency controversy
Another token called $Agency launched a few hours before $WWW
CA :
7VertkgF9KLhxxJXHX6uaWuoYZTP9LdGj2bWmVXVpump
The Agency side claims that their tech was already running before WWW
At this point, I haven’t seen enough evidence to conclude who copied whom, or whether anyone actually copied anyone at all
To confirm that, I’d want to see development timestamps, repos, deployment history, or stronger technical evidence
So for now, I see it simply as a dispute worth monitoring
9. The levels I’m watching
When I researched it, $WWW was trading around $6M–7M MC after hitting an ATH of roughly $8.4M
The token is only a few hours old, so I wouldn’t treat these as confirmed technical support levels. They’re simply areas where I’ll watch the reaction
$7M–8.4M: ATH reclaim zone. A break and hold above $8.4M with strong volume would keep the momentum healthy
$5M–5.5M: The first area I’m watching on a pullback. Losing this zone with increasing sell volume would make me more cautious
$3.5M–4M: A deeper reset zone. If it comes back here, I’ll recheck Frank, the bundle wallets, and volume before considering the dip
Below $2M–2.5M: The original momentum thesis would be largely invalidated for me, and I’d reassess the entire setup rather than automatically calling it a dip
After such a fast move, I personally don’t like chasing the ATH
10. My thesis
I understand why $WWW is hot
It has an AI agent that is actually running, an observable browser, a fee/compute flywheel, Backrooms/Truth Terminal lore, a real product, and a token directly tied to the ecosystem
There are also some positives on-chain: mint/freeze authority is disabled, dev holdings show 0%, and around 17M $WWW has already been locked
But the risks are still pretty clear :
A large funding cluster, unclear bundle concentration, Frank’s wallet having a funding connection to that cluster while already taking some profit, unclear fee flows, creators still retaining some control over agents, no major external confirmation yet, and the unresolved Agency dispute
So for now, I still see $WWW as a high-risk narrative trade rather than a long-term conviction play
What I want to see next is pretty simple :
Continued holder growth, no aggressive distribution from the launch cluster, Frank not heavily unloading the rest of his position, healthy volume after the initial hype, clearer fee/compute flows, and a real external catalyst
If those things start lining up while the chart continues to hold its structure, the thesis becomes much stronger
For now :
I like the narrative and the product, but I’m still respecting the on-chain risk.

It has an AI agent that is actually running, an observable browser, a fee/compute flywheel, Backrooms/Truth Terminal lore, a real product, and a token directly tied to the ecosystem
There are also some positives on-chain: mint/freeze authority is disabled, dev holdings show 0%, and around 17M $WWW has already been locked
But the risks are still pretty clear :
A large funding cluster, unclear bundle concentration, Frank’s wallet having a funding connection to that cluster while already taking some profit, unclear fee flows, creators still retaining some control over agents, no major external confirmation yet, and the unresolved Agency dispute
So for now, I still see $WWW as a high-risk narrative trade rather than a long-term conviction play
What I want to see next is pretty simple :
Continued holder growth, no aggressive distribution from the launch cluster, Frank not heavily unloading the rest of his position, healthy volume after the initial hype, clearer fee/compute flows, and a real external catalyst
If those things start lining up while the chart continues to hold its structure, the thesis becomes much stronger
For now :
I like the narrative and the product, but I’m still respecting the on-chain risk.

And next up is solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE, a name that has been getting quite a lot of attention after running from below $1M to nearly $10M market cap
Instead of just looking at the chart, I dug deeper into the product, flywheel, and especially the creator/dev wallet to see what is actually behind this move
Let’s break it down
1. What is Hooked actually building?
What caught my attention is that Hooked isn’t simply another launchpad on Solana
Hooked is built around Token-2022 Transfer Hooks, allowing creators to embed certain rules directly into the token’s transfer process
For example :
> Anti-bundle
> Anti-dump
> Max wallet
> Holder vesting
> Allowlist
> DEX-only
> Market hours
> FOMO-only buys
> Sniper fee cap
Whenever a token is transferred or swapped, the hook program checks the transaction. If it violates the configured rule, the transaction can be rejected directly on-chain
Simply put, instead of relying entirely on a frontend, bots, or separate infrastructure for protection, Hooked moves part of that logic to the on-chain level
That’s what I find interesting about the product
2. A few things you need to understand
Transfer Hooks don’t necessarily stay forever
If a creator chooses a Graduating Curve, once the token reaches graduation, the transfer hook can be removed during migration. After that, the token trades more like a normal token and the previous restrictions may no longer be enforced
With a Permanent Curve, the hook remains active
So features like anti-dump, max wallet, or anti-bundle are not automatically permanent for every token launched through Hooked
Another thing worth noting is that the hook program can still be upgraded by Hooked’s deploy authority to fix bugs or update the program
The rules are enforced on-chain and don’t simply depend on the frontend, but there is still a certain level of trust involved with the team and program authority
There is also one important distinction around fees
When Hooked says “fees do not go to the creator,” that refers to protocol fees generated by tokens launched through the platform. It doesn’t necessarily mean the team cannot receive other types of fees related to the solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE pool itself
So it’s important to separate protocol flywheel fees from solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE pool fees before looking at creator wallet activity
3. The flywheel is where solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE gets interesting
The technology creates the narrative, but the flywheel is what connects platform activity directly back to solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE
According to the mechanism, every trade on a Hooked bonding curve pays a 1% protocol fee
Of that :
85% is used to market buy solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE and burn it
15% goes toward development
The flywheel is pretty straightforward :
More launches => More volume => More fees => More solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE buybacks => More burn
If the platform actually scales, activity on Hooked creates direct demand for solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE instead of the token relying purely on speculation
More importantly, this mechanism is already operating on-chain, not just sitting on a roadmap
At the time I checked, the dashboard had recorded roughly 25.7M solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE burned, with around 865 SOL used for buybacks
So at the very least, the flywheel has already started working in practice
But I still think it’s too early to extrapolate a few days of activity into a long-term trend
What matters more is whether volume, fee revenue, and the pace of buybacks can remain sustainable once the initial hype cools down
4. Hooked still needs a real runner
The number of tokens launching on the platform is growing quickly, but quantity isn’t the metric I care about most
A launchpad can create hundreds of tokens, but if most of them stall at a few thousand dollars in market cap, the ecosystem still won’t generate sustainable volume
What I want to see is :
Token graduates => maintains liquidity => retains holders => continues generating volume
Right now, most of the launches I’ve seen are still relatively small, and there hasn’t been a major runner yet that truly proves the model
If Hooked starts producing a few real runners, the thesis becomes much stronger
At that point, the flywheel would no longer be fueled purely by speculative volume from newly launched tokens
It would start being supported by real ecosystem activity
That’s the catalyst I care about most
5. Creator/dev wallet
This is where things get more interesting when looking deeper on-chain
The wallet associated with the creator/dev side :
Dpmutmc4ZLqvJwHbwabvKYeFJ9zkQ86nutUAUviRrXG2
This wallet has been claiming fees from the solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE pool, with part of the SOL later being swapped into USDC
At the time I checked, the wallet was still holding around 110K USDC, while fee claims continued to appear
A public compilation of on-chain transactions covering September 28 to October 1 recorded roughly 2,080 SOL in pool fees claimed, with around 1,970 SOL swapped into USDC and approximately 160.8K USDC later flowing into Privacy Cash
Some of the larger transactions cited include roughly 652 SOL claimed, 955 SOL swapped, and 103.2K USDC deposited
I still treat the aggregate figures above as reference data from a public on-chain compilation, since I haven’t reconciled every individual transaction myself
What can be seen directly on-chain, however, is that the wallet has been claiming fees, converting part of them into USDC, and holding a significant amount of stablecoins
The fact that the team is claiming pool fees doesn’t automatically mean they are dumping or that something is wrong with the project
As mentioned earlier, solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE pool fees and the 1% protocol fee feeding the flywheel need to be treated separately, because they are not necessarily the same flow of funds
What interests me more is where the money goes after being claimed
If the USDC flow into Privacy Cash is fully confirmed, tracking the final destination of those funds becomes much more difficult
That doesn’t prove the team is doing anything malicious, but it clearly reduces transparency from a holder’s perspective
So I’d like to see the team provide more clarity around where these pool fees come from, how they are allocated, and the purpose of funds moving through Privacy Cash
Until then, this remains one of the main risks I’ll continue monitoring with solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE
6. Don’t just look at dev holdings
This is also why I’m not only checking how much of the supply the dev currently holds
For a token directly tied to a platform, cash flow can be just as important as token holdings
If the ecosystem generates revenue through fees, the team doesn’t necessarily need to sell large amounts of solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE to monetize platform activity
So what I want to track is :
Fees generated => wallet receiving the fees => what those assets are converted into => where the funds eventually go
That gives me much more context than simply looking at holder distribution
7. What about the chart?
solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE’s price action is obviously strong
The token ran from below $1M to nearly $10M market cap, and despite the volatility afterward, it has managed to hold a significant part of that expansion, trading around the $7–8M range on the chart I’m watching
That shows the narrative has attracted attention very quickly
But the risk/reward is also completely different from when the token was below $1M
At the current valuation, the market is already pricing in quite a few expectations :
Hooked continues attracting users
More tokens continue launching
Volume continues growing
The flywheel keeps buying back solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE
And eventually, the platform produces runners large enough to keep the ecosystem active
So I no longer consider solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE an early discovery at these levels
From here, execution starts to matter more than narrative
8. The thesis from here is pretty simple
The bull case for solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE is easy to understand
Hooked has real technical differentiation through Token-2022 Transfer Hooks
Platform activity generates fees
Those fees create market buys for solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE
The purchased tokens are burned
If Hooked starts producing successful launches, the loop could become :
Better launches => More users => More volume => More fees => More solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE buybacks => More attention => More launches
But the other side is just as clear
If most tokens launched on Hooked die quickly, the initial hype fades, and no real runners emerge, fee generation will decline
Buybacks decline
Burns decline
And one of the most important parts of the solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE thesis becomes weaker
On top of that, there are still questions around the creator wallet and transparency of the pool fee flows
9. What am I watching next?
I don’t need Hooked to announce another twenty new rules to become more bullish
I want to see real usage
A few tokens graduating and surviving afterward
Volume remaining active after the initial hype
Fee revenue continuing to come in
Buybacks and burns continuing even as attention cools down
And most importantly, I’d like to see a clearer explanation around the creator/dev wallet and the pool fee flows
If these things start happening together, the solana:C1mBfBoDkwWfd6uTFZp62ARHLjeVp3bDpCDMfMZtPngE thesis becomes significantly stronger
At that point, the story is no longer simply a new token with a Transfer Hook narrative
It becomes a launchpad with real activity, where ecosystem volume directly creates buy pressure and reduces the supply of its native token
For now, I’m keeping a neutral view
The technology is real. The flywheel is already running. The price action is strong
But Hooked is still too new to prove sustainable demand, and wallet flows are still something I want more transparency on before having stronger conviction
Instead of FOMOing the chart or FUDing the project just because the team is claiming fees, I’d rather keep watching product adoption, fee generation, and on-chain flows and let the data speak for itself

Continuing today’s memecoin recap series
The first one I want to talk about is $JANE
This is obviously a pretty sensitive narrative, so I want to make one thing clear from the start: the celebrities, large accounts, and media outlets talking about “I Am Jane Doe” are discussing the actual case behind it, not endorsing the $JANE memecoin
But from a memecoin perspective, the thesis here is actually pretty simple :
$JANE is trading attention
1. The narrative behind $JANE
$JANE is riding the “I Am Jane Doe” story surrounding the Cornell case, which has been getting a lot of attention across social media
The more information that comes out, the more people discuss the case, and the further the “I Am Jane Doe” narrative spreads, the larger the attention pool becomes
And for memecoins, sometimes that’s all you need
The flow I’m watching is pretty straightforward :
Real-world story => Social attention => More people talking about Jane Doe => Memecoin speculation
$JANE doesn’t have some complicated product or utility that I’m trying to value here
This is simply a pure attention play
2. What makes $JANE a little different
Normally, I’m pretty cautious with memecoins that build their narrative around sensitive real-world stories
But there’s one thing about $JANE that makes it stand out from the usual copycats
The creator rewards are being directed to the Rape Recovery Center
According to the information displayed on the coin’s page, around 266 SOL, roughly $31K, has already been donated to the organization
That matters to my thesis
If attention keeps growing and brings more trading activity, creator rewards could continue increasing, which could also mean more funds being directed toward the charity
Of course, I’m not saying buying $JANE = directly donating to charity. This is still a memecoin and it’s still extremely speculative
But at least part of the attention and trading activity surrounding the token is being converted into real donations rather than the entire story simply being used to farm liquidity
3. The early numbers are pretty strong
$JANE only recently launched, but the initial expansion has been pretty aggressive
When I checked :
MC : around $1.7M-$1.9M
ATH : close to $2M
Volume : $4M+
Holders : 6K+
The chart from the bonding curve also looks relatively clean so far
Instead of one straight pump followed by an immediate dump, we’ve seen periods of consolidation after the expansions, buyers stepping back in, and the overall structure continuing to hold
That’s what I want to see from a newly launched attention play
But there’s one thing you definitely shouldn’t ignore :
Liquidity is only around $66K-$68K
That’s still very thin compared with a market cap approaching $2M
A few large wallets exiting could change the chart very quickly, so don’t look at the market cap and assume $JANE is already some relatively safe mid-cap play
This is still high-risk memecoin territory
4. The biggest catalyst is still attention
This is probably the most interesting part for me
The story behind the narrative is still getting attention, and I think there’s a real possibility that more public figures, celebrities, or large accounts could speak about the issue itself, bringing another wave of attention to the broader narrative
If that happens, the flow is simple :
More big names talking about the case => More mainstream/social attention => More searches around Jane Doe => More speculative attention potentially flowing into $JANE
But again :
A celebrity talking about Jane Doe does NOT mean they endorse $JANE
Those are two completely different things
The token is simply trying to capture the downstream attention coming from a real-world story
What matters to me is whether this specific $JANE contract continues to be where that liquidity and mindshare concentrate
Because if the narrative gets hot but 20 different copycats appear and split the liquidity, all that external attention might not translate into a stronger chart for $JANE
5. What I’m watching next
With $JANE, I’m not really waiting for some roadmap or major team announcement
I’m mainly watching three things :
Attention, volume, and holders
If the story continues spreading, bigger accounts start discussing it, $JANE keeps its volume, and the holder count continues growing, then the thesis remains alive for me
The creator rewards mechanism also becomes more interesting if trading activity keeps increasing, because that could potentially mean more rewards being directed toward charity
On the other hand, if social media is still talking about Jane Doe but token volume starts drying up, holder growth stalls, and liquidity starts moving into copycats, I’ll become much more cautious
For this type of play, attention needs to convert into actual on-chain activity
6. My chart and trading plan
After the run from low cap to nearly $2M, I don’t really want to chase $JANE around the current area
If it keeps running without me, that’s fine. I don’t need to catch every move
The dip zone I’m watching is around $1M-$1.2M MC
That’s where the risk/reward starts becoming more interesting to me
If $JANE comes back into the $1M-$1.2M area while the narrative is still hot, volume remains healthy, and buyers start defending the structure, I may consider taking a small position
I also have a pretty clear invalidation :
If it drops below $600K MC, I’m probably moving on
For a pure attention play, if the market cap retraces that deeply and the initial momentum basically disappears, I don’t want to keep trying to catch the bottom just because the real-world story is still trending
Attention on X doesn’t automatically mean liquidity will return
On the other hand, if we don’t get the dip and $JANE cleanly breaks its $2M ATH with strong volume, continued holder growth, and mindshare still concentrated around this contract, I’ll watch the price discovery rather than FOMO into the candle
My plan is pretty simple :
Dip zone : $1M-$1.2M MC
Invalidation : below $600K MC
Break $2M + strong volume/holder growth: watch the price discovery
7. Final thesis
I’m not looking at $JANE as some fundamentally strong project that I want to hold for months
This is an attention trade
But right now, the attention is real, the token has managed to capture part of that flow, and the early numbers are strong enough for me to keep watching it
The part I like most is that creator rewards are being directed toward the Rape Recovery Center, with around 266 SOL (~$31K) already donated according to the coin page
If the narrative keeps spreading and more big names speak about the broader issue, attention could continue growing. If that attention converts into $JANE volume, the creator rewards could potentially generate even more funds for the charity
But ultimately, I’ll let the market tell me what to do
Attention stays, volume stays, holders keep growing => thesis stays alive
Attention is there but the money leaves => I move on
I’m not marrying a coin like this
Waiting for $1M-$1.2M for a better setup
Below $600K and I’m out

I probably don’t need to introduce ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 anymore because I’ve talked about this one with you guys quite a lot over the past few days, from breaking down the entire product to sharing my plan to wait for a dip around the $6M–$8M MC area
It came exactly into the zone I was waiting for, even wicking down to around $5M at one point. I aped in lightly there, and now ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 is back around $18M MC, nearly a 3x from the dip
But I wanted to give another update because this move isn’t just about the chart bouncing
The biggest thing for me is that has now publicly mentioned
@zipcoincash and its use case for funding a account privately through Zipcoin
This matters a lot more to me than another hype video or the team burning more tokens, because we’re finally starting to see the product getting attention from outside the team
The team has also expanded the flow to ETH. Instead of relying only on ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722’s own privacy pool, which is still very small, ETH can go through the larger 0xbow pool and then be converted into private DAI on
At the same time, the team donated around $10.5K to the legal defense fund for Alexey Pertsev and Roman Storm, which fits pretty well with the privacy narrative heating up again
On-chain though, I still don’t want to hype things too early
The ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 pool was still sitting at around 19 deposits in the latest snapshot I checked. Most of the larger burns are still coming from the team, and while we’re starting to see some outside wallets using Burn to Speak, the numbers are still small
I also haven’t seen enough volume from outside users through ZipTeller yet to call this adoption
So the way I see ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 right now is pretty simple.
Wave 1 was the market buying the Snowmoon + Vitalik lore
This move is starting to price in the product + external attention, especially after publicly mentioned it
But if we want a bigger and more sustainable wave from here, the next thing I want to see is still users
Deposits need to grow from 19 toward 50 and eventually 100+. I want to see real ZipTeller transactions from wallets outside the team, and organic burns need to keep growing instead of most of the activity coming from the dev
Vitalik still hasn’t endorsed ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722, and I’m not waiting for that to keep the thesis alive. If he ever interacts with it, obviously that would be a huge catalyst, but to me that’s just a bonus
As for the chart, the previous plan played out almost perfectly
The entry zone I was waiting for was $6M–$8M, and now the market has taken it all the way back to the old ATH area around $18M–$20M
From here, I’m not chasing
If it breaks ATH, holds above it, and usage starts growing alongside the price, then things get a lot more interesting
But if it simply wicks above ATH while usage stays flat, I’d still treat this as a very strong narrative squeeze rather than confirmation of wave 2
Either way, the move from the dip back to the old ATH has already been great
The chart gave us the entry. The product is starting to get outside attention. Now I’m waiting for the users
That’s the next thing I want to see from ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722
0x4E67DB19044549fF420860834c91b45BaD298722

Quite a few people have been asking me about ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 over the past few days, so I spent some time going through the narrative, product, docs, and on-chain data to see what this actually has beyond the Vitalik name
Just to make one thing clear first : this is not Vitalik’s token, and Vitalik has not endorsed it
Let’s break it down
1. The ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 narrative
The story starts with Vitalik’s Snowmoon
In the book, there’s a currency called Zipcoin built around privacy, anonymous payments, and an interesting concept where you burn money to give a message value
After the book came out, a bunch of tokens tried to copy the narrative
What makes ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 more interesting is that the team didn’t just take the ticker and build some lore around it. They actually tried to turn concepts from the book into a working product on Ethereum
So I see it more as a literary meme with a working product behind it, rather than a mature privacy protocol
2. Zip and Unzip
This is the core of the product
Users can Zip ZC into a Privacy Pool and later Unzip it into a fresh wallet using a ZK proof
The idea is to break the direct on-chain link between the wallet depositing the tokens and the wallet receiving them
A relayer can also handle gas for the new wallet, so you don’t need to fund it with ETH from your original wallet first
The concept is interesting, but adoption is still the problem
The last snapshot I checked showed only around 9 deposits in the Privacy Pool
Privacy depends heavily on the anonymity set. The fewer people using the pool, the weaker the actual privacy becomes
So the tech is live, but usage is still extremely early
3. Burn to Speak and Doorstep
These are probably the two most degen features
Burn to Speak lets users burn at least 1,000 ZC to post an on-chain message. The more ZC you burn, the higher your message gets ranked
Doorstep lets you choose an ENS or address, burn ZC to “knock on their door” and leave a message. You can even send ZC privately alongside it
The concept is pretty easy to understand :
If you want to be heard, you have to burn money
But organic usage is still weak
Doorstep only had a little over a dozen interactions in the snapshot I checked, and most of the notable activity was still related to the team/dev
So seeing vitalik.eth everywhere doesn’t mean the community is massively using the feature
4. Tokenomics and the flywheel
The initial supply is 1B ZC. The docs and current token contract don’t have a mint function
However, the Entrypoint can still be upgraded, so I wouldn’t call the entire system completely immutable
The more interesting part for me is the fee structure
Trading generates ETH fees for the treasury. The treasury can then be used for buybacks, while activities like Zip and Unzip also have their own fees
On paper, the flywheel looks pretty good :
Volume generates fees
Fees feed the treasury
Treasury funds buybacks
Usage creates burns
Burns reduce supply
But right now, only the first half of that flywheel has really been proven: volume, fees, and buybacks
The second half, organic user-driven burns, is barely proven at all
That distinction matters because if you only look at the amount of supply burned, it’s easy to mistake it for real user demand
5. 8.5% burned and 4% sitting in vitalik.eth
According to the snapshot I checked, around 8.5% of the supply has already been burned
Around 40M ZC, roughly 4% of the supply, also sits in vitalik.eth
Both numbers look great at first glance
But most of the major early burns came from the team/dev
And the 40M ZC in vitalik.eth was not bought by Vitalik. The team used the project’s own mechanism to send those tokens to his address
Vitalik hasn’t bought, endorsed, or confirmed any involvement with the project
So I don’t use the 8.5% burn as proof of organic demand, and I definitely don’t treat “Vitalik holds 4%” as smart money accumulation
For now, both are much more relevant to the narrative than actual adoption
6. The product is real, the adoption isn’t there yet
This is probably the simplest way I look at ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722
The Privacy Pool is real
Zip and Unzip are real
Burn to Speak is real
Doorstep is real
The fee and buyback mechanisms are real
So I wouldn’t call ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 an empty token
But the number of people actually using these features outside the team is still very small
I don’t need ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 to become Zcash. I just need to see deposits and burns coming from wallets that aren’t connected to the team. Until then, the valuation is still mostly narrative premium
ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 has already proven “we built it”
Now they need to prove “people actually use it”
7. What could trigger the next wave?
The first wave was pretty straightforward
Snowmoon came out, the Vitalik narrative started spreading, the market went looking for Zipcoin, and ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 got repriced very quickly
But I think a lot of that catalyst has already been priced in
The next wave needs external validation
I want to see the Privacy Pool go from a handful of deposits to dozens or even hundreds
I want to see wallets unrelated to the team actually Zip, Unzip, and burn ZC
If a KOL, ETH dev, or large account starts genuinely using the product, the narrative becomes much stronger
The biggest wildcard is obviously Vitalik
He doesn’t even need to endorse the token. A single public interaction with the concept or implementation could completely change how the market looks at ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722
But I wouldn’t build my thesis around that happening
Vitalik staying completely silent is also a very realistic outcome
8. Risks
This is still extremely early, so there are plenty of risks
Adoption is low, some parts remain unaudited, and the Entrypoint is still upgradeable
also previously flagged a wallet cluster around launch involving roughly 46% of the supply
That doesn’t prove all of those tokens belong to one entity, but it’s still an on-chain risk worth keeping in mind
The biggest risk, though, is attention
If the Snowmoon and Vitalik narrative cools off before organic usage appears, the product can keep working, but the market has no obligation to keep paying a premium for the token
9. The dip zones I’m watching
For ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722, I prefer looking at market cap rather than token price
I’m using the first wave ATH around $18M MC as my reference at the time of writing
$12M–$15M: I don’t really consider this a dip. There’s still a lot of narrative premium here. If it bounces into this range and gets rejected, I’d see it more as a relief bounce than an area where I want to size up
$8M–$10M: This is more of a temporary equilibrium zone, roughly around half of the ATH. The chart can hold here, but I’d want to see volume come back. If price holds while usage is still mostly team-driven, the thesis hasn’t changed much for me
$6M–$8M: This is the dip zone I’m most interested in. The valuation becomes much more reasonable compared to the first wave. But I’m not blindly bidding it. I want to see the chart stop bleeding, volume remain healthy, and Zip or burn activity start coming from wallets outside the team
Below $5M: It looks cheaper, but it could also simply mean attention is dying. If organic usage still isn’t growing, a lower market cap doesn’t automatically make it a bargain
For me, $6M–$8M is the most interesting zone to watch, but price gives me the entry while usage gives me conviction
If it loses $6M while usage still isn’t improving, I have no reason to catch the knife
10. My thesis
The way I see ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 right now is pretty simple
Wave 1 was the market buying Vitalik + Snowmoon
If there’s a Wave 2, the market needs to start buying usage
ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 is not Vitalik’s token
It’s also not a mature privacy protocol
But I think it’s more interesting than most literary memes because the team actually turned the lore into a working product
The narrative is there
The product is there
What’s still missing is the users
If organic usage starts showing up, I think the market has a reason to reprice ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722 again
If not, then at the end of the day, it’s still a narrative trade with a product behind it
That’s what I’ll be watching next with ethereum:0x4e67db19044549ff420860834c91b45bad298722
