$SCANNING | $0.00003465 | $35 Thousand | -34.3% |
The College Football national championship game brought a lot of attention, and a viral meme. The Curt Cignetti scanning meme is going viral, with him double checking, or “scanning”. A memecoin was created, with $SCANNING running to a $70 Thousand market cap, now at $35 Thousand.
SOLANA LAUNCHES A PHONE🗣
$SKR | $0.02796 | $159 Million | +272% |
Solana’s new phone, Seeker, was a clean and well executed TGE in an environment where most launches fail. Over 50% of airdrop recipients chose to stake immediately, which reduced sell pressure and pushed the low float narrative across CT organically. Roughly 2B tokens were distributed to 100k+ Seeker phones, giving holders real breathing room without artificial incentive programs, while staking paid ~25% APY and traders effectively saw a 2x because the chart opened below $100M FDV. The low launch valuation wasn’t optional, it was necessary to avoid a post TGE bloodbath, and it worked: $SKR opened around $90M FDV, moved to $120M shortly after, and has since run to $159M market cap with $281M FDV.
