In today's attention market, and for someone who trades catalysts tokens onchain, FEES are the most accurate metric to measure โAttentionGainโ on any token, apart from the volume or narrative only (which are very important too)...
In other words, you're about to learn how to FRONTRUN ATTENTION without insider info, just purely onchain analysis!
INTRODUCTION.
FEES can serve as a proof of Organic Volume and Activity!
There are 4 types of fees that really matter onchain:
โข Bot fees:
These are compulsory fees charged by the trading bots on all wallets trading tokens on a particular trading terminal. It's very important but kinda undervalued among them all.
โข Priority fees:
are optional extra tips you pay to validators to ensure your transaction is processed way faster than others trading that same token, same time interval on the blockchain (very useful in sniping)
โข Jito fees:
they are also optional tips paid to blockchain validators for MEV protection and priority inclusion of your transaction on the block (heavily used by smart wallets)
โข Global Fees:
This is the most popular one showcased on most trading terminals, very valuable too, but should be used alongside the above fees structure to get a more accurate analysis on a token..
It's simply the sum total of the fees stated above.
Global Fees = Priority fees + Bot fees + Jito fees.
YOUR TRADING JOURNAL SHOULDN'T JUST RECORD TRADES.
IT SHOULD IMPROVE THEM.
Most traders journal manually.
The problem? Insights never compound.
An Obsidian + Claude setup changes that:
โ Every trade becomes structured data
โ AI analyzes patterns automatically
โ Weaknesses get flagged in real time
โ Pre-trade decisions are checked against your historical edge
After 90 days, you're no longer trading from memory.
You're trading from evidence.
The edge isn't more screen time.
It's building a system that learns from every position you take.

$WCB (CA CeVKtv6XtESx1K6woNFj6Jb5tL3fB1kjsAY7QLzQTWCP) doesn't have snipers and insiders per devsnightmare. DueShockedShark, testydev, shadowdahedgehog.sol, lacoste are top holders.
No major clusters on the bubblemap. CEX map cluster has 65.2%, Binance funded wallets have 25.2%, Coinbase 17.6%, Mexc 2.1%, Change Now 3.3%, Bybit 3.2%.
Top 70 holders have 60.8%, top 10 have 15.6%, 1.07k holders with an average bag at $110. Nfa
Felt I was done trenching for the day until I came across a very interesting play that caught my attention..
Caught newly launched World Cup Bounties $WCB at $11k with a good global/ bot fees of 8.46/1.23 sol.
That was more than enough signal to know I'm frontrunning attention- organic insiders were stacking early, the whole world cup meta doing well and coins holding strong.
Bought around $23k, current ATH $170k
Sitting on 7x profit plus

NFA though.
@0xBiZzy@Pumpfun@AxiomExchange@dexscreener literally add global sol fees paid as a filter
make it where itโs at least 50 sol in fees THATS it
i keep telling everyone that
@KayTheDoc@0xBiZzy@Pumpfun@AxiomExchange@dexscreener Totally second this sir!
And not just global fees, bot fees too...
Below is a deeper research to understand why they really matter.

Where Has All Of The Liquidity Gone?
Everyone keeps asking why crypto feels dead.
I donโt think crypto is dead.
I think crypto is being diluted by the same entities who once called it home.
For years, crypto was one of the only places on earth where you could find 24/7 markets, insane leverage, endless volatility, and a permissionless casino where anyone with enough courage or stupidity could sit down at a table.
That was the product.
Not decentralization, vibes, whitepapers, or "the future of finance"
The product was opportunity.
But now crypto no longer has a monopoly on that feeling.
Prediction markets are exploding because they offer traders something crypto used to offer better than anyone else: the ability to bet on almost anything, instantly.
Politics.
Sports.
Weather.
Economic data.
Elections.
Pop culture.
Geopolitics.
Whatever the internet is arguing about that day.
That liquidity used to rotate into coins.
Now some of it rotates into โWill this happen by Friday?โ
And once someone gets addicted to trading probability itself, a random mid-cap crypto chart starts to look a lot less special. Why ape another recycled L1 narrative when you can trade the actual event everyone is talking about?
Then you have the TradFi invasion of crypto-style perps.
This is the part I think people are still underestimating.
Until recently, no person could wake up at 2AM and use 50x leverage to long or short the S&P 500.
Now that world is here.
The same mechanics that made crypto perps so addictive are being applied to the largest, most liquid, most culturally relevant markets on earth.
Stocks. Indices. Commodities.
Maybe eventually everything.
That changes the game.
Right this very second on Hyperliquid alone there's over 2.6 Billion in Open Interest on all things Tradfi.
That is liquidity that could have been chasing BTC, SOL, ETH, privacy coins, AI coins, or whatever other narrative CT wanted to pretend was inevitable this week.
Instead, it is sitting in a leveraged TradFi market using crypto rails.
And it probably is not going away.
That is the unfortunate reality.
Some of this is not cyclical.
Some of this is permanent.
Prediction markets are not a fad.
Tokenized equities are not a fad.
24/7 TradFi perps are not a fad.
The ability to trade everything, everywhere, all the time is not a fad.
It is the natural evolution of markets.
Crypto gave the world the architecture.
Now the world is plugging other assets into it.
That means crypto assets are competing for attention against a much larger universe than they were before.
The total crypto market cap is no longer just competing with itself.
It is competing with the stock market.
And the stock market is enormous.
Once you let people trade pieces of a $ 60T+ U.S. equity market through crypto-style infrastructure, you have massively expanded the surface area for speculation.
That sounds bullish for rails.
It is not bullish for most tokens.
There is a difference.
A perp DEX doing billions in S&P 500 volume may be great for the exchange.
It does not mean your favorite altcoin will attract the liquidity it used to.
This is the liquidity problem.
Crypto used to be the casino.
Now crypto is becoming the casino building, and no longer the game itself.
And the games on that casino floor are multiplying.
So no, crypto is not dead.
But the old model is dying.
The days where liquidity had nowhere else to go except BTC, ETH, SOL, and whatever narrative CT was farming are fading.
The pie is getting bigger, but the number of slices is growing even faster.
That means weaker tokens bleed harder.
It is liquidity dilution.
The casino expanded.
The question is whether your token is still one of the main tables or just another dusty slot machine sitting in the corner.
