Open Cipher

Tracking conviction, wallets and meme narratives on TON.

Remember this tweet.

Not because $GRINCH hit $1M.

Because one day people will realize...

$1M wasn't the story.

It was the introduction.

$GRAM season is loading.

Don't Get Grinched 🐸

$GRINCH

[Open Cipher @Open_Cipher]

@Adambreakbread_ Wow wtf bro 🚀🚀🚀
YODA to the moon soon 🚀

[Open Cipher @Open_Cipher]

This is exactly why I've become obsessed with Character. Community. Culture.

A chart can attract attention.

A character can hold it.

A community can grow it.

Culture is what gives it a chance to outlive the hype.

[hvr @hanuveer_]

Saw it.
Understood it.
Didn’t buy it.
Now they got Grinched.

$GRINCH started on TopBlast ( @groypfi launch pad ) around 1k market cap.

Everyone saw the early volume.
Everyone saw the first rotation.
Everyone saw it correct for 10 days around $150KM
Then it pushed to 600k$.

Then again, it corrected around 400k for 10 days.

Same story.

People saw it. People understood it.
People almost bought it.

But “almost” doesn’t pay.

This is exactly how $MOG created culture which went to 1.4B$

“He got mogged” became more than a meme.
It became a psychological stamp.

Now TON @tonkeeper has its own version.

He got Grinched. And the execution is not random.

The team turned a seller into marketing.
A wallet that fumbled 75M tokens is now sitting in the Hall of Grinched with a $72k missed opportunity.

That is how you turn pain into narrative.

Then look at the contest.

It started around $600 in value.
Now it is worth around $5,815 with one week left.
Almost 10x growth in the prize pool without changing the core idea.
https://t.co/18CVxVtfvH

That is professional execution.

I’ve seen this standard before on BASE and ETH.
Not often on TON.

Now add the bigger layer.

$Pepe on almost every major chain has produced 100M+ runners. Because Pepe is not just a meme.
It is internet-native distribution.

And on TON, the only real Pepe connected to the Egor meta @zhgun is $GRINCH.

The same Egor meta that gave TON some of its strongest cultural assets. $utya $yoda

That matters.

Because when ecosystems wake up, capital does not rotate randomly.

It rotates into the most recognizable memes, strongest narratives, and cleanest culture.

Same thing happened with $YODA.

Ecosystem players saw it. They understood it.
They respected it.

But almost nobody had a bag.

Now the same movie is playing with $GRINCH.

The market is not underpricing the meme.

It is underpricing the execution.
It is underpricing the Pepe premium.
It is underpricing the Egor meta.
It is underpricing what happens when TON finally gets its own Pepe.

Most people don’t miss because they don’t see.

They miss because they see too early, doubt too long, and buy too late.

Don’t get Grinched.

@hanuveer_ Against Family?? Never!!!

$UTYA
$YODA
$GRINCH

Are Family. Period.

[Open Cipher @Open_Cipher]

@nirajhodler @TheGrinchPepe Good to see more experienced eyes exploring TON.

Whether someone ends up bullish or not, fresh perspectives always make the ecosystem stronger.

Curious to hear what stands out to you after spending more time here.

Don't Get Grinched.

[Open Cipher @Open_Cipher]

Been reflecting on yesterday's space, and I just wanted to say thank you.

Big thanks to @Oneuppp_1 for jumping in as co-host again. Really enjoyed bouncing ideas back and forth.

We talked about why I'm focused on TON this cycle, how I think about narratives, and why my conviction has narrowed to what I call the Holy Trinity:

🦆 $UTYA 👽 $YODA 🐸 $GRINCH

Every Space gets a little better. Still learning, still improving, but I'm enjoying documenting my thinking in public.

If you missed it live, the recording is below. Let me know what you think.

@CrashiusClay69 The Holy Trinity

[Open Cipher @Open_Cipher]

Reading this reminded me why I stopped chasing the "next coin."

These days I'm far more interested in understanding ecosystems, liquidity rotation, and the stories that attract attention over time.

Whether you agree with the conclusions or not, learning how someone builds conviction is usually more valuable than copying what they buy.

[hvr @hanuveer_]

My $GRAM Season Starts Here.

The Holy Trinity. Decision made.

For the rest of the GRAM season, these will be the only three conviction plays I'll be actively talking about:

$UTYA, $YODA, $GRINCH

That's it.

Will I trade other memes? Probably.

Will I post every new shiny token? No.

I've learned that attention is capital. The more directions you split it, the weaker your conviction becomes.

Every cycle has hundreds of opportunities.

You don't need hundreds.

You need a few that you understand deeply.

For me, those are these three.

$UTYA remains my highest conviction.

Then $YODA.

Then PEPE $GRINCH.

That allocation reflects my conviction, and I'm comfortable with it.

Many people think why $GRINCH.

There are countless memes on TON @ton_blockchain . I could have chosen many others. Some teams are doing incredible work and deserve respect.

But when I weighed everything together branding, narrative, website, community, execution, the people involved, and most importantly the Egor @zhgun meta GRINCH stood out.

I've been obsessed with the Egor meta same like @Matt_Furie meta since the beginning. It completely changed my crypto journey.

It's one of the biggest reasons $YODA became a major conviction play for me, and it's one of the reasons PEPE $GRINCH made this list.

There's another reason.

I've watched people like @moontroncrypto , @Adambreakbread_ and @hollowtradr work behind the scenes for YODA.

I know the value they've created because I've seen it firsthand.

When people with that level of work ethic rally behind something, I don't mind riding alongside them.

I enjoy building with people who consistently show up.

That's worth more to me than chasing the newest narrative or coin every week.

This isn't a buy call. This isn't financial advice.

Your wallet is yours. Your decisions are yours.

Do your own research.

My goal has never been to tell people what to buy.

I want to show how I think.

You may completely disagree with my conclusions, and that's perfectly fine.

The purpose of this account is to document my thought process, my positioning, and the lessons I learn through each cycle.

Not to spoon-feed entries.

As for PEPE $GRINCH, I'll publish my complete thesis when it establishes a strong floor above $1M market cap.

Until then, I'll keep watching, building, and contributing.

If the market keeps running, great.

If we get a 20–40% correction, I'll likely add more to my conviction bags.

Bull markets don't reward the people who chase everything.

They reward the people who understand a few things deeply and stay with them long enough.

The Holy Trinity is complete.

Let's ride the GRAM season.

@yodaonton @utyadao @TheGrinchPepe

The line that resonated with me was:
"Attention is capital."

The more directions you split it, the harder it becomes to build real conviction.

I've found myself spending less time searching for the next coin...
and more time trying to understand the stories that are already unfolding.

[Open Cipher @Open_Cipher]

@AlmostBought_ starting soonnnnnnnn........

[Open Cipher @Open_Cipher]

🎙️ We're going live today.

Tonight we'll discuss:

• Why I'm still convicted after the ATH
• The evolution of the TON meme ecosystem
• UTYA → YODA → GRINCH
• Community questions & live discussion

In 8 hours, I'm hosting my first $GRINCH X Space. 🎙️

Nine months ago I knew almost nothing about crypto.

Today I'm sharing the journey that changed how I invest—from chasing charts to studying narratives, communities, and conviction.

We'll talk about:
• Why TON caught my attention
• UTYA → YODA → $GRINCH
• The recent ATH
• What's next for $GRINCH
• Live Q&A
The Space goes beyond the article. I'll be sharing the full story, my framework, and answering your questions live.

@hanuveer_ I think people underestimate creator ecosystems.
When one creator repeatedly produces recognisable characters that communities naturally adopt, I pay far more attention than I do to charts.
Characters outlive candles.
That's where I think the next category leaders usually emerge.

[Open Cipher @Open_Cipher]

@hanuveer_ Spot on — build your thesis, size smart, ignore the noise, and let time reward the patient. Whales win by sitting tight while others FUD on timeline.

[Open Cipher @Open_Cipher]

@TheGrinchPepe @moontroncrypto Don’t get grinched 🐸

[Open Cipher @Open_Cipher]

@hanuveer_ Exactly @hanuveer_
Meme coins test the mind more than the wallet. 80% drawdowns separate panic from power. Conquer emotions, conquer the game. 💎

[Open Cipher @Open_Cipher]

@ton_blockchain @binance Markets focus on listings.

I'm more interested in what listings enable.

More accessibility.
More liquidity.
More attention.

The interesting part comes after the announcement.
