On-chain capture of meme coins isn't as mysterious as it seems

Recently, I saw a case where someone used the early warning feature of a chain scanning tool to successfully identify the starting point of a meme coin's rise. From an initial bottom at $1200, it later soared to $6460, more than five times the original amount.

What is the key behind this?

It's actually a combination of **tools + information + execution ability**. By using the right on-chain analysis tools, you can spot abnormal signals earlier than most people. Successful traders often monitor smart contract deployments and initial liquidity changes in real-time with chain scanning features, allowing them to buy at the bottom before the price takes off.

Meme coins carry high risks, but opportunities do exist. The key is to have reliable data sources and proper risk management. Don’t just follow the crowd based on screenshots; truly understanding the logic behind making money is something you need to figure out yourself.

Are you also using such tools? It seems that the most important thing is to learn how to interpret on-chain data.

Basically, it's still an information gap. Those with tools can indeed spot opportunities early. Listening to chain scans for bottom-fishing sounds easy, but few can actually keep up with the execution. I just want to ask, how dare you swing $1200? You must have a really strong mental resilience. Interpreting on-chain data definitely requires effort; otherwise, tools are useless. Meme coins are just gambling—quick money games. If you can't afford to lose, don't play.

Honestly, a 5x return sounds great, but I still think most people are actually bottom-fishing with knives. Those screenshots are all survivor bias, everyone. How many people can actually reliably use tools to scoop up profits? Staring at the charts and monitoring contract deployments every day—how exhausting is that? I’d rather not. No matter how good the tools are, you need to have an eye for it. The key is whether you can tell which projects are genuine and which are rug pulls. Scanning the chain does have opportunities, but in terms of execution, I think it’s more often a gamble. By the way, which tool is the most reliable right now? Please recommend, don’t get scammed. Actually, the most profitable are those who place orders at 0.001 and buy in—there’s no way we can compete. Feels like this article is just selling tools, huh? Early signals are useless; I react slowly and end up watching the coin skyrocket.

Oh my god, 5x. Do I need to quickly learn how to use chain scanning tools? That's right, just looking at screenshots can easily lead to being cut, you need to understand the on-chain data yourself. The reliability of chain scanning tools mainly depends on the data sources. Some I’ve used feel a bit laggy. $1200 turned into $6460... Thinking about it, it's still a bit exciting haha. The key is execution. No matter how good the signals are, if you don’t dare to act, it’s useless. This time I probably have to pay tuition again. Meme coins really have extreme risks.

Honestly, even early warning tools for chain scanning need to have execution capability, otherwise everything is pointless. It sounds simple, but in practice, it still depends on luck + experience. $1200 turned into $6460? Such market conditions are rare and hard to come by. The problem is that most memecoins can't even double. The real challenge is how to distinguish which coins have potential and which are just IQ taxes; tools can only provide signals. Instead of worrying about whether the tools are good or not, it's better to first understand your own risk tolerance. There are many people who monitor on-chain data daily, but in the end, quite a few still end up losing everything. To put it nicely, luck still plays a part in it.

It sounds great, but I think the key is still mindset, not the tool. A 5x return is indeed tempting, but how many people still lose money using the same tool? Chain scanning tools are everywhere; what makes the difference is execution and the courage to cut losses. Honestly, many people get stuck on the words "wait a little longer." This thing depends on luck; tools can only help you narrow down the options.
