Recent On-Chain Review: No Clear Narrative Under U.S. Stock Market Pressure, Just Hype

Özet

This article analyzes the current state of the Solana meme coin and community token ecosystem, highlighting a market caught between two dominant forces: attention-based PvP and a gradual return to community-centric projects. The first part explores the "Attention PvP" dynamic, where success is driven by celebrity endorsements, viral events, and speed. Examples include $JOTCHUA, which surged after its meme creator's social media activity, and $WORLDCUP, which outperformed a similar Base chain project ($PITCH) largely due to influencer support. The recent "pump.fun GO" feature, allowing bounty tasks for token promotion, is critiqued for fostering sensationalist and often negative stunts—like people getting token tickers tattooed on their bodies for rewards—reminiscent of old internet shock content. In contrast, the article points to a resurgence of organic, community-driven tokens that survive market volatility through strong holder bases and shared ideology, not just hype. Influencer Ansem is cited, arguing that durable meme coins rely on communities willing to endure losses and promote their core message daily. Examples given are older tokens like $neet (anti-work ethos), $troll, $buttcoin, and $triplet, which have maintained relative price stability. A prime example of this community-build model is the new project $KINS, the token for the browser-based MMORPG Kintara. Its success stems not from advanced graphics but from consistently delivering updates, fostering player t...

After the ETH mainnet gradually grew quiet, degens have returned to be active on Solana once again. Despite this, it's hard to say there is a clear main narrative for the activity on Solana. To summarize, it might be fitting to describe it as "oscillating between a return to community and attention PvP."

Attention PvP

Ever since Trump issued a token, the meme coin market has grown accustomed to the playbook of relying on celebrity endorsements, hot events, and competing on speed for a long time.

Everyone is used to it, so even with poor liquidity, people still follow this playbook to find opportunities, thus forming an inertia for this kind of strategy.

$JOTCHUA, a dog meme that became popular in Spanish and English-speaking circles in 2021. On January 24, 2021, Instagram user @_kingorange uploaded an inspirational poster featuring a crudely drawn dog picture with the text "JOTCHUA," which received over 29,000 likes within three months.

Its market cap once neared $9 million at its peak. The community has significant debates over whether this token is "organic," because its launch did not occur after the meme's creator @_kingorange claimed it, making it almost impossible to say the "claim" was the direct cause of the price surge.

Many players believe this token is another instance of "setting up a play," or attribute it to KOL Ansem sparking market speculation about his purchase being related to this token when he claimed on June 9th that he had returned to buying Solana meme coins for the first time in over a year.

The same concept, even the same ticker, but your coin just doesn't pump. $JOTCHUA on the ETH mainnet was deployed as early as December 2023, and has had consistent content and community, but it couldn't compete with getting the creator to click a few buttons and claim it.

A similar situation happened with the World Cup concept. $WORLDCUP on Solana, due to bonkguy's purchase and detailed analysis, saw its market cap surge from around $5 million to once break $12 million. Meanwhile, the World Cup concept project $PITCH on Base had fallen from a peak market cap of about $7 million to nearly $700,000.

Although $PITCH indeed has its own issues, mainly on the communication front. The project is not inactive, it keeps updating, but the dev rarely speaks up, and their X (Twitter) account got repeatedly suspended and still hasn't sorted out a new one. But admittedly, without any endorsements, similar concepts and playstyles lose out in the battle for attention.

The recent new feature from pump.fun, pump.fun GO, allows anyone to post paid bounty tasks on pump.fun.

This did attract mainstream media attention, but unfortunately, once again in a negative light reaching the masses.

$Bountywork, this token's market cap once approached $2.5 million at its peak. Its dev @ayushquantt's strategy is to continuously post new tasks on pump.fun, creating hype for this token.

He certainly succeeded—by offering a bounty of 40 SOL to have someone tattoo $bountywork on their forehead.

An Indian man actually got it tattooed, and strictly followed a typo the dev made in the description—missing an 'n', incorrectly writing the ticker as $boutywork.

Initially, his bounty application was rejected because the tattoo was missing the letter 'n', and the dev demanded he correct the tattoo. Then, someone launched a new token using the incorrect tattoo as the ticker, $boutywork.

Finally, the 40 SOL bounty reward was still given to him, and the creator revenue from the new token was also given to him, earning him a total of about $48,000.

Then, as the hype faded, $boutywork has essentially gone to zero. The dev of $Bountywork is still continuously posting new bounties trying to replicate this "success," for example, having someone eat 3 insects on camera while wearing a $Bountywork t-shirt.

There are quite a few tattoo-related tasks on pump.fun; some have received up to 200 SOL in return for tattooing their own face.

Honestly, this isn't much different from the days when big brothers on Kuaishou tipped people to eat raw eggs or gulp down white liquor...

The Return of Community

Let's continue the discussion around pump.fun's new feature. Almost all bounty tasks are related to generating attention-hype for specific tokens. The only one not treated as a joke might be this bounty task for $neet—organizing a gathering in New York for people who resist work.

The reward for this bounty is paid in $neet, equivalent to over $15,000. The $neet community has previously self-organized 2 offline "anti-work gatherings" in the US; if this bounty is completed, it will be the 3rd.

Although it's unclear what pump.fun's intention is in supporting community-type meme coins, their official Twitter always features promotions for such community tokens. Although the performance of these tokens varies—for instance, $chillhouse's price has been sluggish for a while—the ones pump.fun officially picks out are generally quite community-driven and organic.

Currently, those with relatively stable visibility and price performance, besides $neet, include $troll, $buttcoin, and $triplet. A brief introduction to the survival status and themes of these community-type tokens:

- $neet: Deployed 410 days ago, peak market cap ~$51 million, current market cap ~$27 million. The community's mission is to make more people realize that dedicating most of one's life to work means losing one's own life.

- $troll: Deployed 416 days ago, holds the copyright to the classic meme Troll, listed on Coinbase. Peak market cap ~$290 million, current market cap ~$65 million.

- $triplet: Deployed 107 days ago, an abbreviation for "Tung Tung Tung Sahur," the hottest breakout character from last year's viral "Italian Classic of Mountains and Seas." Peak market cap ~$13.6 million, current market cap ~$6.6 million.

- $buttcoin: Deployed 153 days ago, originated from a 2011 joke on the Bitcoin forum, a pun on Bitcoin as "Buttcoin" (Butt coin). Peak market cap ~$68.6 million, current market cap ~$27 million.

Mentioning these tokens and the return of community-type coins brings us back to Ansem. After he mentioned returning to buy Solana memes, someone told him to just post the CA (contract address), and if he did, they would aggressively buy 1% to add to their position.

Ansem's response sparked much discussion:

"Let me explain why I don't post CAs. If I buy some Solana meme coins, and these coins already have good holders, the market will tell you which ones are good through social media performance, trading volume, holder count, etc. You shouldn't listen to me, but to the market. Meme coins relying on a group of holders who just compete on speed, wait for endorsements to dump, won't be good. Only tokens with a large community, where people within the community are willing to endure losses and promote their beliefs day after day, will succeed. Tokens dependent on a single celebrity won't do well."

Besides the older tokens mentioned above that have survived long and maintained relatively stable prices, there are indeed new tokens emerging that align with Ansem's view, such as $KINS.

$KINS is the token for Kintara, which is a blockchain game. Interestingly, Kintara hasn't led the Solana gaming sector because its rise wasn't due to the game's polish, but rather its step-by-step actions to earn community trust.

A brief introduction to $KINS' mechanism. This is an MMORPG playable in a browser; to play, your wallet needs 1,000 $KINS. Once in, you can chop wood, mine, fish, buy houses, fight monsters and bosses, and PvP.

The game has no other pay-to-win options, only a reward wheel. If players don't want to spin only once a day, they can spend $3 worth of $KINS to continue spinning. 50% of this revenue is used for token buyback and burn, 50% for project maintenance and development.

The core gameplay loop is roughly: gather resources -> craft items -> challenge tougher monsters. If players lack resources, they need to use the in-game currency "Gold" to buy from other players. Players can sell "Gold" in the game priced in $KINS, with 5% going to the treasury and 95% to the player.

It sounds fairly ordinary, and the data isn't particularly impressive either (so far, 0.5% of $KINS has been repurchased), but the project's consistent delivery has built solid trust. Perhaps because the market is so disheartening, many players have genuinely gotten into it. The number of people fishing in the game daily is increasing. The project has expanded to 5 servers, but there's still a queue...

A player successfully sold a rare mount obtained from fishing and earned $1,800:

The project team of this game almost "doesn't promote play-to-earn," instead focusing heavily on "how to build network effects and a sense of player belonging." For example, integrating various Solana community meme coins or newly hot tokens into game elements, such as auctioning mansions in the game.

Or, promoting people organizing World Cup football matches in their houses:

When it was still obscure, with less than $40,000 market cap and 243 holders, this early phase of "unheard of and unknown" was written on the stats board in the game's main map. Everyone watched Kintara persistently and rapidly update game content, slowly gaining people's trust, gradually attracting KOLs like Gake and Ansem to become part of the game as players.

So no one calls this kind of project a "set-up play."

"What are we constantly chasing after all along? A game of mutual trust, or a game of mutual deception?"

This is a recent question Zhàn Háo has been asking himself.

Hopefully, such questioning can persist and ultimately lead to a healthier market.

İlgili Sorular

QWhat are the two main competing themes or approaches observed in the current Solana meme coin market, according to the article?

AThe two main competing themes are 'Attention PvP' and the 'Return of the Community'. Attention PvP relies on quick, hype-driven plays involving celebrity endorsements, hot events, and speed-based speculation. The Return of the Community focuses on meme coins with organic, long-term communities built around a shared culture or purpose, where members are willing to endure price fluctuations and consistently promote their project's ideals.

QHow did the $JOTCHUA meme coin benefit from the 'Attention PvP' dynamic, and what controversy surrounded its success?

AThe $JOTCHUA coin gained attention and its price surged largely after the meme's creator, @_kingorange, 'claimed' the coin on social media. However, its success is controversial because the coin's launch and initial pump did not happen after the creator's claim. Many believe the surge was due to market speculation triggered by KOL Ansem announcing his return to buying Solana meme coins, suggesting it was another 'pump group' setup rather than an organic community-driven event.

QWhat is the core mission of the $neet community, and how does it distinguish itself from typical 'Attention PvP' coins?

AThe core mission of the $neet community is to promote the idea that dedicating most of one's life to work means losing one's own life. It distinguishes itself from 'Attention PvP' coins by being a long-term, community-driven project. The community has organically organized offline 'anti-work' gatherings in the U.S. and focuses on a shared cultural belief rather than relying on short-term hype or celebrity endorsements for price action.

QAccording to Ansem's statement quoted in the article, what are the key characteristics of a successful meme coin that does not rely on a single influencer?

AAccording to Ansem, a successful meme coin that doesn't rely on a single influencer should have a large, genuine community. Members of this community should be willing to endure losses and consistently promote the project's underlying philosophy or culture day after day. Success should be indicated by market data like social media activity, trading volume, and holder count, not by the endorsement of any single key opinion leader (KOL).

QHow did the project behind the $KINS token (Kintara) build trust and a sustainable community, as described in the article?

AThe Kintara project ($KINS) built trust and a sustainable community through consistent delivery and focusing on player engagement rather than financial speculation. Key strategies included: rapidly updating game content, integrating other community meme coins into the game, organizing in-game community events (like house auctions and soccer tournaments), and having a transparent tokenomics model where 50% of optional spin revenue is used for token buyback/burns. This approach fostered a sense of belonging and network effect, attracting genuine players and even respected KOLs who became part of the community.

Focus: Five Leading AI Stocks on Nasdaq

The report analyzes five Nasdaq-listed AI infrastructure stocks—Micron (MU), MaxLinear (MXL), AMD, Lumentum (LITE), and Vicor (VICR)—as distinct plays within the AI capital expenditure chain, rather than a single "AI trade." While all benefit from AI data center spending, they differ in their specific roles (e.g., memory, computing, optics, power, connectivity), financial resilience, and risk profiles. The author argues that the key question is not whether the AI narrative remains intact, but whether capital expenditure translates into real orders, earnings justify valuations, and portfolios can withstand high volatility. Historical data shows these stocks have significantly outperformed benchmarks but also experienced deeper drawdowns (~28% to -32%), highlighting their high-beta, high-volatility nature. An investment framework is proposed: core positions (e.g., MU, AMD) for stocks with stronger fundamental evidence; satellite positions (e.g., LITE, VICR) for high-potential, high-volatility names; and cautious observation (e.g., MXL) for smaller-cap ideas with unproven financials. The emphasis is on disciplined, phased buying during pullbacks—only when price corrections align with intact fundamentals and available risk budget—rather than emotional "buy-the-dip" strategies. Overall, AI infrastructure offers long-term potential, but success requires strict position sizing, role definition for each holding, and preparedness for significant volatility.

Will UNI Reach $100 in Four Years? Will Standard Chartered's Prediction Come True?

TL;DR: - According to reports, Standard Chartered Bank has published a research report on Uniswap, setting a 2030 price target of $100 for the UNI token. - The bank's core logic is that the tokenization of assets will drive demand for open DeFi liquidity, and Uniswap could capture significant trading volume and fee revenue. - However, most institutional-grade tokenized products are permissioned, and the example of BlackRock's BUIDL shows that DeFi still faces significant access barriers. Standard Chartered's $100 target for UNI by 2030 is based on the hypothesis that tokenized assets will grow massively and a significant portion will flow into open DeFi markets, requiring decentralized exchange platforms like Uniswap for liquidity. The bank forecasts tokenized assets could reach $4 trillion by 2028, with up to 30% in DeFi by 2030. The key question is whether tokenized assets like treasuries and funds will trade in open, decentralized markets or remain within closed, permissioned institutional systems. This directly impacts Uniswap's potential growth. A real-world example is BlackRock's BUIDL fund, which, while using UniswapX for trading, is strictly limited to pre-approved, whitelisted institutional participants. This highlights the current trend: institutions may leverage DeFi infrastructure but maintain strict control over access and transfers. Furthermore, for UNI's value to rise significantly, Uniswap must establish a clear value-capture mechanism, such as the approved fee switch and token burn proposal. Regulatory and interoperability hurdles also persist, as noted by bodies like the Financial Stability Board. In summary, Standard Chartered's bold prediction hinges on the future flow of tokenized asset liquidity. While it signals institutional recognition of DeFi's potential, the path to $100 depends on overcoming current permissioned models and enabling truly open, cross-asset liquidity pools on platforms like Uniswap.

Odaily Editorial Team Tea Talk (June 17)

Odaily Editorial Team Casual Chat (June 17) This is an informal column sharing real-time thoughts from Odaily's editorial team on industry news, data, and events. The content is based on actual investment and observations, does not constitute investment advice, and aims to expand perspectives. Azuma shared recent operations: small-scale buys in crypto (mainly BTC) at relatively high levels, a small addition to HOOD stock, and participation in World Cup prediction markets. He also discussed Hyperliquid, noting that while its token HYPE has performed well, its high price may hinder the expansion of its HIP-3 ecosystem by making market creation cost-prohibitive, potentially limiting the platform to just one major market (trade.xyz). Suzz emphasized the importance of a calm mindset in investing, stating that markets offer perpetual opportunities. He warned against "hindsight bias," where past opportunities seem obvious, and stressed that the present always holds new chances for those with the right knowledge and temperament. Golem analyzed SpaceX's acquisition of AI tool Cursor's parent company, Anysphere, for $60 billion paid entirely in SpaceX stock. He speculated whether Musk's interests might work to keep SpaceX's trading volume and market cap high in the short term to reduce the actual equity cost of the deal, noting current high retail investor enthusiasm. Wenser shared a market outlook: cautiously bullish on BTC, monitoring SpaceX stock post-IPO for a potential rise, observing World Cup trends favoring strong teams, and noting the continued strength of Japanese and Korean stocks. He highlighted Anthropic's potential for a massive future IPO and the defensive investment logic in "picks and shovels" AI infrastructure. Qin Xiaofeng discussed trading HYPE around $56-$70, viewing the $50-$60 range as long-term support due to Hyperliquid's dominance in on-chain traditional asset trading and its substantial fee revenue used to buy back HYPE. On ETH, he noted a divide between disappointed crypto natives and bullish traditional investors like Tom Lee, personally viewing current ETH prices as undervalued.

Under the Shock of Oil Prices and Inflation, Which Country Will Be the First to Sell Off Its Gold Reserves?

The article draws a parallel between the 2003 North American blackout and the potential collapse of the global financial system, framing the US dollar and Treasury market as the world's economic "power grid." It argues that the closure of the Strait of Hormuz is creating a shockwave, starting with oil-importing emerging markets like Turkey, India, and Indonesia. As oil prices rise, these nations are forced to sell dollar-denominated assets—first US Treasuries, then potentially their gold reserves—to afford fuel. Turkey is highlighted as a key case, having sold nearly 90% of its Treasuries and begun tapping gold reserves when oil was between $70-$105/barrel. The article warns that if prices spike to $150-$160/barrel, global buffers like oil inventories and strategic reserves will be depleted. This could trigger a cascade: vulnerable nations, having exhausted assets, could face economic and political collapse (like Sri Lanka in 2022). Their forced asset sales would drive US Treasury yields higher, potentially past a critical threshold (around 5%), forcing the US to choose between a bond market crash or hyperinflation through massive money printing. Ultimately, the piece posits that the dollar's long-term decline is inevitable. The first domino to fall will likely be a fragile emerging market, signaling the start of a chain reaction that eventually threatens the core of the dollar system. The conclusion advises holding tangible assets like gold and energy, which cannot be printed, as a hedge against currency devaluation.
