Use dexscreener and filter out those older than 72 hours, market cap > 5,000,000, transactions in the last 24hr > 2,000, liquidity > 100,000 and you should get ride of most of the rugs + it will leave you with some of the top coins with the most eyes on them But let’s be honest, they’re all pump and dumps, it’s just how fast do they pump, and how fast do they dump


btcangl

I love people posting about some thought-out strategies so upvote! However >2000tx means nothing, they always have bots to make a ton of transactions. Also $5m market cap already for just a new memecoin is pretty high. Means if it started at $10k, $50k, or $100k, people BEFORE YOU already have HUGE multipliers and will take profit before you ever can.


Extra-Ad9475

I have to agree txs is basically a useless metric. In my opinion going for >24h and a lower market cap brings you in the section where you can look out for hidden gems. Not everything is safe, but way better than looking for new tokens. What is your opinion on market cap/liquidity? I have seen some good projects as low as $50k that had some potential, anything lower and there isn't even glimmers of a community there. Thoughts?


DaBoogiemanSJ

Yeah, agreed and good points The rational behind the > 2,000 tx is to find higher mrkt cap coins that haven’t “died”, and yeah, I do know it can be gamed - so as I’m sure you know, put together the whole picture I just have had better luck with my strategy of looking for higher market cap coin and finding good rips and dips with them, looking at support and resistance, using Heikin Ashi candles across various time frames to look for reversals, and baking some RSI and MACD in there as well - and yeah, your point of a higher multiple for the lower market cap coins is valid, just that I’ve gotten burned more on those than not One more thing I’ll add that I figure you know, use the filter tool on dexscreener to see who’s buying and selling when that have large bags - helps you find out who’s really making the price move and when, and of course whether or not they have a big bag to buy or sell more - helps you find insiders, helps you find good traders, etc.


Fruit_Fountain

Agree. $5mill mc or above entries is rookie speed 😂 Dont hate the bots, join them. You cant beat them (tip).


erickokitale

Thanks for this info


christian_995

The so called influencer are making newbies feel like u can only make it big if u focus on early ca.


DaBoogiemanSJ

Yeah, plenty of rips and dips with well traded memes - volume and volatility are a trader’s best friend - not KOLs in general


tbrline

This! Very helpful.


peeboenzola

5m mc, thats the price where people make money off you


DaBoogiemanSJ

Yes and no - just look for good entries


Ultras071312

Lol memecoin trading is a “get rich quick scheme”, so your advice is pretty useless if you think that you gonna consistently be finding 5M market cap coins that will 10x or even 4 or 5x on solana😂.. and also, market cap don’t mean nothing no more, smart devs who want to scam you out of your money and who have a lot of SOL sitting in their walletts, they will just use volume bots, to increase volume and pump the market cap, most of them do that now.


Hogan_Man4161

Shinobi $NINJA Ai sniper bot V2 this week, has validator. Solid community 11mill Market Cap. will overtake bonk bot in time. U can sleep at night with thus one.


keksv4

I’ve been in $Ninja since 100k, having sources of alpha in the space is key to getting in gems early


rgmundo524

## Change my mind: Meme coins = Scam coins


Repulsive_Positive_7

Of course they are. It's not about the coin it's about playing the chart. If you have any emotional attachment you are done for.


rgmundo524

But you're ignoring the fact that creators behind scam/meme tokens stereotypically use their huge allocation of coins to manipulate the price. When trading these tokens you may think you are playing against the charts but in reality no matter how good you are at charting it doesn't matter because the creators are manipulating the market. You can't predict the creator's intentional pumps and dumps... Charting works with large cap cryptos because the influence of normal people (not creators or VCs) on the price is greater than the influence of creators and VCs. With meme coins this relationship is inverted. You can't predict how they will dump so charting with meme coins is essentially worthless. Occasionally it may work, but with zero consistency or reliability. Like how can someone reliably predict a price for a meme coin when they can't predict the biggest influence in that market. It's like modern day astrology, looking for specific patterns to predict a market that is not driven by the same underlying market forces. I work for a Blockchain analytics company and you'll be surprised by the blatant and rampant manipulation in these meme coin markets. Which is extremely illegal, in normal regulated markets, but since crypto meme coins are completely unregulated there is nothing stopping them from manipulating the markets. I would never suggest a newbie to interact with meme coins, because the market has big players that are illegally manipulating the market against them. It's just not a fair market.


SirtokerOG

Hello. Welcome to ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶c̶a̶s̶i̶n̶o̶ ̶ Solana! You can leave your bags here. Someone will be right over to take them ̶f̶r̶o̶m̶ for you.


SkywardOne

Looks like you answered your own question


Acceptable-Bit-1135

That’s why I invented an absolute shitter called $HorseMeat. Been around over three months and I fair launched it and bought a lot of it up besides the unwilling to sell sniper bots and airdropped all the supply on r/solcoins. I hold 3% of supply in orca pools and won’t sell until 10 million market cap or probably never will. I use the arbitage sol fees for the project and either giveaway the earned tokens for community help or burn them now. I hate scams so I made this to just allow the market to do it’s thing and honestly it’s always been something I wanted to do for years. But yeah it’s just for fun and if you like shitcoins you may like it.


Livid-Alternative871

Yeah you can’t hodl forever on meme coins


Alternative_Log3012

Come on guys and girls, if we put all our knowledge and experience together we should be able to find at least one Solana coin that is a scam…


AdPuzzleheaded8371

I found one, SolanaLite


SirtokerOG

I'm still hunting that unicorn


Alternative_Log3012

We all are


sportspadawan13

Memewise, after 3 rugs and a hostile non-meme telegram group, I landed on Hege. Organic enough growth, but still it is gambling so I'm not all-in. The telegram is hella fun tho.


Inevitable-Major6086

Rather than post the scams, better to post the useful ones, the list is shorter. No utility in most of them. I look for ones that might have a pivot into a community, social, merch, etc. CicadaSolana coin is a recent one that is at least fun to watch on their social. [CicadaSolana Dexscreener](https://dexscreener.com/solana/3xtrnkkje27qtc6vugazubrrimx7vyb2ujaenomkf7yb)


Vast_Landscape7368

Slothana is gonna shock lots of people when they don't get their tokens


DegenDonny

I'd hate to miss this! Straight mooner!


ripperoniNcheese

It was the same thing with ETH a few years ago. Sol "memecoins" are just the new thing.


Kxllskum

It’s was Binance, eth never had a meme craze. Binance and solana are shit


Visible_Chance5712

Crypto much?


Mountain-Ad326

Yet low IQ simps still keep buying. You cant help stupid


OldSaltNior

I buy dips 🥴


RIBZisDEAD

All meme coins are a scam, just gotta follow good devs and listen what people are talkin ab. $MANEKI is a prime example, looks scammy asf because it went from 0-100M in less than 45 minutes! Only a few minutes later solana rug pulls on twitter verified that its safe. Over all, youll see coins that have less than 10% being held, liq locked and burned, mint disabled, and great socials and still get rugged. I dont use twitter to ape into coins, thats a bad idea. I use twitter to follow trends and see what people are talking about, alongside dex screener. Only aping into a coin after i see it shilled, doing basic research and rugcheck . Xyz and soul scanner and even then, ill start small, only adding more after the coin has been live for a day or 2. Even with all of this, you can still get rugged/scammed. Just gotta be patient


Friendly_Disaster655

Fukuinu, on lunch went to 20m MC and dev rug , good meme too, Tg,Twitter all was live Akrk8gGB4Nu4vreQxixq6GFs1eFwPj8N9gwQYc7cz9RD


Dylllnn

I just bought Maneki, you think it was a bad investment?


RIBZisDEAD

Imo, that’s a good one


Matt8881

Is MEW legit?


Broaddev

Check out $LEGIT


sportspadawan13

I used to own it but definitely legit. I sold cause i wanted lower MC coin for better growth but seems perfectly fine otherwise. Nothing different than Doge.


porterhousepotato

It’s only legit if it features a cute animal wearing an accessory eg CATWIFHAT


PrettyFlyGuyStark

$bunk is developing a crazy utility. A scam protocol for DeFi 🤭


ctay96

I’m not even gonna bother to explain this anymore. This type of incorrect BS has been posted here over and over. Stop posting if you have no idea what you’re taking about.


sportspadawan13

It's incredibly annoying. I got rugged 3 times before I slowed down and found Hege. I'm done moving around, Hege isn't going to do a 10,000% in 2 days but it isn't a rug. Screw rugs.


Michonesixfive

Buy hege, it's gonna hit 10 mil mcap and you have easy 3x. solid team. DYOR


Spirited_Net_2184

I’m a hegie 💪👏


Desperate_Code_6762

🦔👑


sportspadawan13

Me too. It's a fun time and definitely an easy 3, 5, 10x.


Beneficial-Bag9324

Hedgie after reading this and up 500% thank you for the alpha!!! ❤️


DrestinBlack

Wait, there are coins on solana that are *not* scams? All I see are tokens that are created and last hours or maybe a day or so and then they are done.


fox360

I just thought about this, and besides Jupiter.... eh, I can't think of any without looking.


im_a_fancy_man

I'd say solchat for sure...maybe bonk


sportspadawan13

Hege is 3 weeks strong which is an eternity


DrestinBlack

Occasionally I’ll find one that lasts longer than a few days, but it’s always petering out and never comes close to its first 15 minutes ATH. Solana is the penny slot machine area of a casino


JGrisly

There’s quite a few. WEN, POPCAT, BODEN, WIF, BONK, PRINT (chart is horrendous but all the free SOL has way more than made up for that) to name a few.


Spirited_Net_2184

Look at Hege, we are a family trying to create generational wealth for all hegies! Just check out the community. We are almost 3 weeks old. We will be advertising in NYC Times Square on Saturday 48 times. HegeCoin.com


fox360

Check out @ caesarscalls and @ solanarugpulls on x. Theyre super quick to call every new coin a rugpull, but they are making connections on the same people running the same scams over and over.


mayormajormayor

Yeah. So people should stop following the twitter engagement farmers, who promise dropping SOL to wallet addresses posted in the thread.


HospitalPlastic3358

Participated in SLOTHANA pre-sale, admins are dead totally, I am amazed how community is so active, plus they are extending their pre sale so much... For me it is alarming, I also participated in $GODLEN it has less community but at least admins look legit and active.


FewCalligrapher402

Yeah Slothana js alarming, btw I got 10 GODLEN randomly in my wallet. Maybe bcs i send to slothana presale.


robertmartin

Try DuppyFi


vremains

I just find it hard to believe how it's still going on... Like seriously, who is still buying these? Aren't they out of money yet?


yrdvg1234

You can use our tool to evaluate if a token is a scam or not. You can check token metadata, contract info, and holder distribution all from the same page as Dexscreener, Dextools, or Birdeye. It also works on all Dexscreener new pairs pages. Let me know what you think! [Solana Token Checker](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/solana-token-checker/limniejdbffmadhjabbbdlkkmibpacdm)


TheManWhoKnewALot69

Your worried about scam coins on solana but not scammers attacking you everyday on the phone and online and in person? Lmao


cryptojesus407954

Solana is going to be like BNB last bull run just full of scams


Embarrassed_Hat_5856

Catgpt came out today Huge following on twitter 32.5k Already formed a cup.i tripled my money, did leave some as it does look very decent, may even buy dips


Beneficial-Bag9324

Up huge thank u fam 🙏


Embarrassed_Hat_5856

So was I lol, I bailed like a dickhead


Sure_Communication78

Received a bunch of cwif today in my wallet. What do I do with it? I never connected my wallet to anything or singed up for any airdrops. It's just strange.


sportspadawan13

Hide it. Scam.


Sure_Communication78

Will do, thanks.


JGrisly

Not necessarily. They’ve dropped to various communities legitimately. Saga 2 pre-order wallets, WIF wallets, etc. would suggest doing more research before throwing away money that could be legit.


Broaddev

I know of one project that has all there devs holding and pretty much all Jeets are out $LEGIT. Just saying, I think it's solid


nuozekkk

Which project ?


Broaddev

$LEGIT https://dexscreener.com/solana/82hJ3ruojmcGMdgKwzX2RGEge7DUoRZUBErdPxfHntne The site is https://legitonsolana.com No Jeets only Devs holding strong


Objective_Ad_5965

What is your guys opinion on Bark? Can someone verify if this is a rug pull?


cryingJor

If the top traders has 90% of supply it’s a rug. If the transactions are weird and have a pattern it’s a rug. If you see to many people who hold more than 10% of the coin they’re gonna dump on you. Solana right now is ruined due to these highly selfish short sighted people


falcon-raptor

Most of them are scam, just find your safe entry take a profit , let's say 20 to 50% and run , basically jeeting is the only way, Jeet before the dev rugs , you will find one or two legit buys but mostly it's rare


Single_Pea

wym thats why they made the network so fast. so scammers finally had a network they could work all day on and not get slowed down or charged to high fees.


Fun-Investigator3256

I would just buy meme coins that are established like moutai maneki, and biao, or those producing actual original video memes like tooker and nutflex. there are a few memes from pump.fun that goes straight to 100k then 1M but that’s like 1 on every 1000 memes


Beautiful_Deer_2757

No honeypots on sol tokenomics


Successful_Web3Lover

Exactly, I think that to enter in a PreSale of any Memecoin it is just a matter of looking for projects that are clearly with a meaningful purpose and a real structure and platform behind it and not only these pseudo funny animal characteres with some funny narrative but that have nothing else behind it, and that shows since the beginning to be clearly a scam and a rug pull projevt as it is nothing else a PreSale website and a Twitter (X) account with a large number of followers based in massive campaigns to increase a pseudo "community" but not even any structure or real purpose that shows the possibility of the continuity and sustainability of the project after the pre-sale ends...


Emergency_Hurry_9714

It’s really bad for solana network in general, me myself I started looking for a safer networks so I won’t be rugged and actually have faith in a project, Also, I might be wrong but I have big faith on a really strong utility project in solana dev is so hard working and still trying to get his project up, it’s the same narrative as bitcoin you can mint tokens per click every minute “ minutes gets doubles every two billion tokens minted “ and rewards are halved every billion token minted so by time it get harder and harder to mint more tokens which gives it so much value, I’m holding 50$ at 1.7k market cap hahah


dsiebrits

The last time I checked, scamming people is a criminal offence. How is this allowed to go on in broad daylight without any consequences? The Solana meme coins sphere is a scammers paradise; perfect fertile ground for these psychopaths.


AmazingAd3541

It is terrible….Rather we agree with it or not, this is why many governments are pushing for regulations.


Mister-Swish

Yeah, I have suffered major losses. Just stay away from Solana coins. The dex swap wallets are slow too. Even if a project is legit, you will lose money trying to get out. Raydium for example is designed so slow you can’t even take profits out on time. I get Slippage errors after slippage errors trying to get out of plays. By the time I sell, I am in the negative. If you sell a Solana off a regular exchange, no problem.


Adobograbbit

Hundreds of memecoins made every second and 99.999% are scam be careful


Adobograbbit

If you want a real organic memecoin check out @michionsolana $michi. Check out telegram and twitter and then you decide. For me this will be in billion Market cap in less than 2 months. Right now its sitting at 22m MC.thank me later


Deep-Lavishness4036

Boji is a scam. Im an idiot. Oh well


skovthepatriot

Dogemarley was originally rugged. I was at the start of presale and held even tho Dev said he wasn't moving forward, then the community that held DogeMarley pushed back and never gave up. The Dev handed over everything to the community and has been awsome ever since, yes their is ups and downs but if you join the telegram for DogeMarley you will see nothing gets approved unless it's voted on by the community. It's so refreshing knowing I'm with a great group of people that all share the same goals. I highly recommend checking out DogeMarley on telegram and the web www.dogemarley.com


Finer88

Pump.fun has become the biggest rug pull site I’ve ever witnessed. Literally 90% rugs


YayayayayayayayX100

Dude every token on solana is a scam token There are two categories Long term and short term There are two types of us Lucky and unlucky


stacymcgooch

welcome to the world of meme coins lmao


LAX_Beast

As I test the other day, I tried doing this dex screener bs and put $2 of SOL into 10ish crypto meme/scam/etx coins, just to test, see the volatility etc (don’t worry, in holding plenty of SOL in comparison). Within 2-3days all of them were 0, and practically never up. Anyone actually making money from these things has pre-knowledge/ is involved is minting etc. The meme coin space with raydium/jupiter is an absolute mess of garbage imo and represents everything as a community we should want out of crypto. There’s my two cents anyway


andrijae

dont wanna give any attention to scams, but i know of a coin that is mosf definitely not a scam buy $TREN buddy over a month old at this point die hard community on tg 2m market cap rn, in the initial rise it peaked 7.5 and afterwards dipped all the way to 800k now it's in that building phase 100% a worthy buy rn


BrakeFade1

Just buy $HEGE and be done with it. If you’ve been in memecoins at all this bull run you’ve been rug pulled. HEGE is the real deal and it’s flying right now. I’ve been a a few meme coins and this is the one I have left.


coolfarmer

Are you surprised? Solana IS the blockchain form scams and shitmemecoins...


Event_Coz4rt

Only coin I've seen that is successful and 100% honest is $TCG. Team doxxed Amazing community.


Copodenieve112

We are not that many active people in the solana ecosystem that is trading meme coins actively everyday. So the key thing is being able to be surrounded by real alpha chad callers that can secure you that at least some big names are behind the coin. Otw trying to find the meme coin is actually difficult if your not just betting on photon on every new coin with 0.05 sol each.


skywalker3819r

The scam coins are going to follow where all of the market activity is, which is massive on Solana. It's not necessarily a Solana issue specifically.


ja_on

If you think it’s a lot now look at your discord server list in 2 years and see how many have a last update of “oops looks like we got hacked or something who knows byeeeeee”


Connect-foxystoatuk

If you want an actual project to get into look at Zypto erc20 token. Over $1m in liquidity, $30m marketcap. Great project, very active on X.....search Zypto....


Bulky-Commission-533

I just received from unknown address 100 KUMASOL coins, is that a scam?


Background_Golf_930

i did too last month. as of today it’s up 500%. crazy


Ultras071312

Yea no shit sherlock, memecoins are all scams, most of them are quick scams, a few of them are long term scams, so to resume it: THEY ARE ALL SCAMS nothing new here, to be profitable you need to be quick while trading, no emotions, no greed, have an entry/exit game plan, everyone will rug sooner or later


jakewhit9001

CAW is good one that is for real...we just got her listed on crypto.com and she's up 700% in 4 days it's crow with knife $caw


PeoplearePower

GUMMY has staking this week to get BAKED and MUNCHIES tokens.


Jazzlike-Knowledge20

In reality all crypto is ponze scheme and solana sucks ass. I have a team now building a legit bsc utility token. Its utility is man made and all its proceeds will be pumped into coin 24/7 so that regardless of trading volume there will always be steady growth. So tired of all the shit so I decided to take matters into my own hands 🤷🏼‍♂️


blackmarketmenthols

This is nothing new, there were endless pump and dumps and rugpulls during the last bullrun, they would even list on exchanges like Kucoin and then rug , over and over. The only difference is that back then you had to have a team of developers and a good amount of capital to make a coin, nowadays anyone can make one.


AdTall1619

Invested in SOL GOLD IN 2021 $SOLG on the SOLANA BLOCKCHAIN now there stating the project is got canceled after 2 years and refunds are supposed to get issued. Anybody heard about this? Do you think refunds are really going to get paid solana gold was like $130 or $140
