Dear People in Pain,
Check your wallet.
As promised, 80% of the 185,976 $SOL raised has been refunded. 💸
All funds sent after block 318346069 (i.e. end of PAINSALE) have also been refunded.
The refunds were sent from this wallet address:

My team will be dealing with the s̶t̶u̶p̶i̶d̶ special cases separately later.
Yours Painfully,
Harold
Dear People in Pain,
Waiting is painful.
So, I want to give you some updates:
• My team is working hard with the right partners to ensure that $PAIN's launch is painless and fair.
• The 80% refund will be airdropped to eligible wallets before $PAIN is available for trading, so you can get more $PAIN if you want.
• $PAIN will also be airdropped to eligible wallets. We will announce the official contract address and tokenomics on X and our website (https://t.co/mSqfwzy6c1).
• There will not be any claim. Do not click on scam links or fake tokens to inflict more pain on yourself. Enough is enough.
Yours Painfully,
Harold
Crypto is changing.
Projects used to rely on VC money & speculation.
Now, they’re using hype & community to fund themselves, without dilution.
$PAIN just proved a new model:
Attention → Trust → Scarcity → Demand.
The game is evolving.
🧵
The most recent $PAIN announcement is actually a masterclass.
More than happy to hold my hands up and say I got this one wrong.
Normally have a good gauge on what is happening, and I saw someone in the @CyberKongz discord say this could be a possibility during the pre-sale, but I just shrugged it off.
To garner the attention of the *entire* space is one of the most difficult things to do. This has to be one of the best marketing stunts in web3.
Arbitrarily come out with an uncapped presale with no tokenenomics resulted in:
- Highest presale ever on Solana
- Whole space critiquing it and talking about it
- Once all eyes on, turn into the good guy with that announcement
Now anyone that deposited is basically guaranteed to cook, liquidity will come back to people interested which will probably just send the token higher than it would have without the refund.
Masterclass @pain.
Dear People in Pain,
Thanks for the overwhelming support! We are painfully happy to share that we have raised 185,976 $SOL in 48 hours—more than any other memecoin presales in USD value.
But there is no way that we need so much to launch $PAIN.
$PAIN is the official memecoin of the OG meme legend "Hide the Pain Harold" and is intended to function as an expression of pain on the blockchain, not to add more pain to your already bleeding portfolio.
So we will do another first—refund the largest amount of $SOL in any presale history.
At launch, we will return 80% of the funds we received. We will use the remaining 20% to support the launch, provide liquidity, pay listing fees (if any), and help everyone feel less pain from recent liquidations.
Your $PAIN allocations will be proportional to the amount you sent, except for the 0.9 $SOL from bots and 212.3 $SOL from various CEX. Funds that are sent after block 318346069 will also be returned.
Get ready for the $PAIN.
Yours Painfully,
Harold

HANDSOME ESTIMATION IS purely fantasy and estimation of a meme named $PAIN that has no intrisic value whatsoever, so please never take this as financial advice.

We all know initial MC is crucial in determining entry points and potential of a MEME coin.
$PAIN token sales might ended and for those wondering 🤔 Handsome made a rough calculation on what kind of MC (Market Cap) @pain is going to start at.
