here are a few simple steps on how I spot tokens like $DEGEN at good entries using GeckoTerminal, and why it keeps paying off
first, I always check the trending tokens in each category when opening the website
this gives you the top 3 tokens in every category and remember, those trends are organic, not paid like on other screeners
second, pick the coin that hasn’t already pumped too hard and check their socials
see how the community talks, understand the narrative, and figure out why people are paying attention
third, set alerts for entries and targets
I first spotted $DEGEN around $1.5M but didn’t enter immediately
instead, I waited and bought the pico bottom around $1.1M before it took off
notifications help you catch cleaner entries and much better risk/reward setups
these steps are simple, but most people never do them consistently
repeat this process every day and your entries will improve a lot

The lore surrounding DEGEN is becoming increasingly wild.
A new Reddit thread attributed to a BTC “Satoshi insider” suggests that following the shutdown of online poker in 2011, millions of internet “degens” migrated to crypto, forums, betting markets, and meme culture.
Silk Road, Bitcointalk, WSB, and Polymarket are just a few examples.
The really insane part is...
$DEGEN was supposedly mentioned in some of those early circles.
Now people think some OG internet builders are still involved and planning something big. Real or not… this is how cult coins start. Lore mixed with degen bag workers.

I feel it coming, @WE_R_DEGENS gonna go crazy.
This week, the Senate Banking Committee proved Washington can still work together.
Passing the bipartisan Clarity Act was historic and personal to me. My mother raised my brother and me with faith, grit, and determination, teaching us that the American Dream should be within reach for every family.
Proud of @BankingGOP for taking a step forward to make America the crypto capital of the world!
Congratulations to Chairman @SenatorTimScott and @BankingGOP for advancing the Clarity Act with bipartisan support.
I look forward to President @realDonaldTrump's signature & working with @ChairmanSelig to implement this legislation.
