Going solo into the trenches in the online space
And especially in memecoins it's hard af
But
Finding the people that will grind with you to get to the top is also not easy
At this rate the whole @Pumpfun ecosystem is gonna die. Here are a few ideas they should actually consider if they wanna stop the inevitable downfall:
1. Stop focusing only on making more ways of max extracting. Less ways to vamp, stop rewarding devs and pure slop.
2. Add a deploy fee again + or some real anti-vamp tech. This nerfs the constant vamping and low effort deploys. Less coins, higher ceilings, liquidity isn’t diluted to shit. Million mc runners are way more appealing than constant destruction and 20k toppers getting obliterated.
3. Stop promoting and paying literal scammers and tokens that die in a day.
4. Take some accountability for all the fuck ups you keep making.
5. Instead of giving millions to the same KOLs just to call their own tokens (Poorgoat, Slingoor etc), start rewarding actual good calls and real info. Y’all promote calling like normal people can make a doctors salary in a day when you know damn well that’s far from reality.
6. Crime some actual good coins and narratives for once instead of just letting the casino run itself into the ground.
7. Keep your promises. Where tf is the airdrop? At least make a fucking update.
I’ve been trading pumpfun tokens since the very early stages and i have made most of my money in this ecosystem. It has really changed my life but man too see the way its going now its just sad
I know this is a company that only cares about making money but at this rate there won’t be any money left. Better to play the long game.
Hope this helps. @Pumpfun@a1lon9
There's too much going on CT
Especially when it comes to memecoins and crypto in general
If you really want to succeed
Then don't look at all the "noise"
Just look at the scope/charts, dyor, press buy/sell or ignore and move onto the next
This is the market you build yourself
When the BULL arrives
That's when you show everybody what you have built
And the experience you've gained
Lock in and stay safe in the trenches
Everyone's got their time
FOMO app has officially lost the plot.
A platform that sponsors grifters and extracts more in fees than their entire userbase earns is now publicly virtue signalling.
Very well said
But in order to rebuild the old trader's mentality and to shape correctly the new comers
We need a platform that DOES NOT ALLOW block0 bundles, vamping 500 times the same narrative, onboarding broke gamers or uni students etc.
since nobody is speaking out, lemme hold your hand.
the biggest problem with the trenches rn is NOT lack of volume.
it’s what we’ve turned that volume into.
volume has recovered significantly from the lows, yet we are not seeing the kind of sustained 50m, 100m runners you’d expect from this much presence.
why?
we lost conviction. the holding culture.
the market has become an endless race to find the next coin before everyone else does.
sniping.
wallet tracking.
twitter tracking.
news coins.
bundles.
multi-wallets.
farming.
vamping.
PvPing.
everything is optimized for speed.
nobody wants to hold overnight anymore because everyone is terrified that they will wake up to the coin being raped. that’s the real problem.
this $CLUG bs did 10m volume in just 2 hours. 10 fkn million! that’s not low volume buddy! the problem is that there’s a struggle to build even a 500k floor.
that should tell you something.
we aren’t building value anymore.
we’re recycling liquidity.
money enters one coin, gets extracted, moves to the next coin, gets extracted again and repeats.
every new runner kills the previous runner.
every new narrative fights for the same liquidity.
every new pair becomes another slot machine.
we’ve essentially turned the market into a casino where the edge isn’t conviction anymore. it’s milliseconds.
and then we wonder why retail doesn’t come.
why would a normal person want to enter a market where you’re expected to compete with bots, insiders, wallet trackers, snipers and people running hundreds of wallets just to have a chance?
this isn’t a volume problem. it’s a mentality problem.
we don’t need more people trading faster. we need people willing to believe again. willing to hold. willing to let something develop.
willing to buy something they believe in instead of immediately asking what the next coin is.
because until we rebuild conviction, every increase in volume will just give us a bigger casino. not a healthier market.
lesson in dat.
now tag @blknoiz06 or anyone who you think could help here for God’s sake 😭
Most people are trying to figure out how to trade memecoins.
Meanwhile, Megga is out here showing everyone how to DEV one and casually making +8 SOL in seconds. 💀
It's your fault if you're becoming a KOL's exit liquidity
The KOLs are just getting their fat paychecks from their deals, callouts and dumping on your head
But you are the idiot who follows their moves and impulse buy because you get easily influenced
@polarster And FOMO is onboarding uni students and gamers who are broke and ask for money from their parents; these platforms are destroying the trenches
Every single “kol” in this list is on contract with pumpfun and is being paid more than an emergency care surgeon through the callout reward feature.
24 users earned a total of $4.4M in callout rewards while their retail copy traders are down $1.46M since October 12th.
Let me break down exactly how the baton corporation (pump) hit these numbers:
1) Sign kols with massive influence on the younger degenerate populus for $50K/month.
2) Copy fomo’s callout reward feature because they stole the spotlight.
3) Push the kols to the front of the pumpfun app whenever a normie downloads it and scrolls down.
4) Kols callout their own block 0 bundled coins at 30k mc after manipulating the supply.
5) Retail traders follow callout and create their own, bringing the coin more attention without them realizing it’s a rug pull.
6) Coin gets drilled and retail trader looses money while profiting $0.10 in callout rewards.
7) Kol makes $40k farming coin while also profiting $20k in callout rewards (1000x what the retail, non sponsored trader makes).
8) Rinse, repeat, and make tens of millions from revenue (pumpfun profits).
9) Act like the app is fair and nobody has a secret advantage.
Remember, don’t fully blame the kols for the current state of memecoins; BLAME THE PLATFORM THAT IS INCENTIVIZING THEM.
So ask yourself why serial farmers that steal user funds are being payed more than someone who saves human lives?
This bear market is so tragic
All the people getting onboarded get rinsed from KOLs and pumpfun devs
Then they also transition to the deving career to make the same crimes
Seems like the best move is to watch on the sidelines until the next opportunity arrives
2x
4x
0.5x
5x
2x
3x
10x
That's how running it up looks like
Of course there will be lots of losses
But retiring off of one coin is something that KOLs are larping
Stop copytrading KOLs
When people get educated about what and how they are trading
Start creating their own thesis about a coin
And start holding for more than 30 seconds
Only then we'll see the trenches healthy with more new traders coming in
@Swedgonecrypto The market is not saturated at all in terms of traders
The reason why we are in such a horrific market rn
It's simply because of wrong onboarding and advertising of the trenches by specific trading platforms and "devs"
Plus the newcomers are only copytrading KOLs
You scroll for one second on this app
All you see is war
KOLs VS KOLs
Trading terminals getting exposed and draining people from their hard earned money
KOLs that use their influence to lure their viewers into exit liquidity
I guess this is the Bear market's effects smh
I realized I need to sit down and learn about crypto, how the SOL blockchain itself works
And other useful info that comes from this rabbit hole
Now I am restarting
This time I will be at 0 but with must have knowledge and plenty of losing experience
Got in the trenches late 2024 early 2025
Gambled away around $1.6k in total that wasn't play money
Took a 1 year break to buy my first car but couldn't stay out of the topic
After watching some streams
Got back and gambled another $800 of my hard earned money
Until...
@saturatexyz At this point, none of the trading platforms can be fully trusted
So trade anywhere you feel comfortable, don't follow KOLs, take p and keep it safe
+80k, 4x my last month.
In October I will aim to outwork every soul on CT.
I hit 10k followers on @Twitch. Very grateful for the supports and I hope we all make it big.
