Launching Memecoins

Memecoins are taking off and it seems like everyone including President Trump is launching a memecoin:

His wife even launched a memecoin 2 days later.

Memecoins can massively go up (and down) in value fast.

So what does it take to create a memecoin?

The simplest way is to use a service like pump.fun

To create your own memecoin, you can visit https://pump.fun/create and fill in the blanks. It costs less to deploy a token on pump.fun but you lose flexibility in how you can update your token in the future.

With how easy it is to create a memecoin on pump.fun, have memecoins created on pump.fun been successful?

Yes, as of Jan 29, 2025, FARTCOIN has over a $1 billion market cap. Here are market caps of the top 10 memecoins created on pump.fun as of Jan 29, 2025.

Not all memecoins created on pump.fun are successful, some go to $0 (or close to $0) instantly.

As with all crypto projects, community is essential. Work first to build a community on X.com in Discord or elsewhere online to launch into to help attract holders. A story for the community to rally behind is important too.
