The Memcoin Life Cycle: From Deployment to Obituary in Five Phases

After analyzing thousands of charts, our engine identifies a single recurring pattern. Understanding the phases doesn’t guarantee a profit-but it dispels illusions.

Five Phases

• 1. Deployment and sniping (minutes). The token is created; bots and insiders buy up the first blocks. Retail investors aren’t involved yet-professionals are distributing “cheap” positions among themselves.
• 2. Rally (hours). The token appears on screener tools; the first calls to buy appear in Telegram channels. Volume grows, and the number of holders multiplies. This is the most profitable and riskiest phase: it’s unclear whether this is a rally or a rehearsal for a dump.
• 3. Viral Phase (hours-days). If the meme catches on-tweets from major accounts, CT memes, a wave of FOMO. Snipers from the first phase begin to lock in profits as liquidity increases.
• 4. Distribution (days). Growth slows; large wallets methodically sell off, while late-entering retail investors buy on the pullback. This is precisely where our social media radar often detects a peak in mentions-public attention lags behind smart money.
• 5. Obituary (weeks). Down 90%+ from the peak, volume dies out, and the chat turns into a “hope club.” Rare “zombies” resurrect in a second cycle-but statistically, you can’t bet on this.

Practical conclusion: Entering in phases 1-2 is a game against bots; in phase 3, against snipers; and in phase 4, against the math. Choose your opponent wisely and lock in your position along the way-see the risk guide.
