43.4 million tokens launched.
At the time of the snapshot, only 691 were still above a $100K market cap.
On https://t.co/MRsabeFxrx alone:
24 million launches.
Just 312 still above $100K.
These aren’t coins that briefly touched that level. This is a snapshot of the ones that were still there.
And this is the market we’re preparing to enter.
We could launch Purple Cat tomorrow. But getting attention on launch day isn’t the hardest part.
The real challenge is giving people a reason to still care a week, a month or six months later.
That’s what we’re working on.
We want people to know Purple Cat before they ever see a ticker. We want them to recognise the character, follow the story and feel part of what we’re building.
We don’t want to spend months building Purple Cat just to become another token people scroll past a few days after launch.
We’re not trying to time the perfect market.
We’re trying to make sure that when we launch, there’s something worth coming back for.
And that’s worth taking the time to get right.
The cat comes first. 💜

I’ve seriously considered launching Purple Cat on https://t.co/HMf6Qq1d66.
But the more I looked into the numbers, the more questions I had.
Millions of tokens launched. Only a tiny fraction ever reach meaningful market caps.
And the money flowing through this ecosystem is enormous.
We recently came across a group called @BPFonStonk , @RonPull . People who have decided they’ve had enough.
It got us thinking.
Would boycotting one platform actually clean up the trenches?
Or would the same problems simply move somewhere else?
Because maybe the problem goes deeper than one launchpad.
Today, anyone can become a dev in five minutes.
Launch a token. Create an X account. Post a few memes.
But working on that same project for a week, a month, two months?
Building something when there is no immediate attention, no quick rewards and nobody cheering you on?
That’s a completely different story.
Everyone wants overnight success.
Very few are willing to put in the time when nobody is watching.
And perhaps that’s one of the biggest problems with this space.
If https://t.co/HMf6Qq1d66 disappeared tomorrow, would anything really change?
Maybe the real question isn’t where we launch.
It’s what we’re actually trying to build once we do.
That’s something we’re thinking about with Purple Cat.
@Pumpfun Interesting upgrades, no doubt.
But does better trading infrastructure actually change anything about the bigger problems in the trenches?
Better tools don’t necessarily mean a healthier ecosystem.
What do you think?
