Sudden Rally: $ANSEM 600x, Then $TJR 20x
After $ANSEM surged 600x in 24 hours on Solana, a new celebrity token $TJR exploded over 20x this morning, reigniting FOMO. While $ANSEM held steady, it failed to sustain upward momentum. The key catalyst was the public involvement of influencer TJR (@_TJRTrades).
From Skepticism to Endorsement: TJR Flips Stance
TJR, with 250K followers on X but over 1.5M each on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, initially pledged to help Ansem expand TikTok content and onboard new users, buying $100K worth of $ANSEM. However, at 6:00 AM today, he posted 'Should I join?', then confirmed airdrop plans, signaling endorsement. $TJR’s market cap rocketed from ~$1.6M to $28M within hours—up from just $400K the day before.
Dev Revealed: 101 Tokens in 7 Days, $6M+ Profit
On-chain sleuthing by GMGN shows that the same deployer behind $ANSEM also created $TJR, sending 79% of the supply directly to TJR’s wallet. The deployer initially sold $ANSEM for a $5,500 profit, then mass-minted celebrity tokens over the past week, accumulating positions while engaging heavily on X. In 7 days, the address launched 101 different meme coins, 12 of which peaked above $1M market cap and 3 above $10M. The deployer’s 7-day profit stands at 82,000 SOL (~$6.08M), with $193K from token creator fees alone; 30-day profit reaches $8.77M.
Other Variants: $TESTIBULL and $dog Join the Party
Beyond $TJR, derivatives also soared. $TESTIBULL, a spinoff of testicle-themed $TESTICLE, was promoted by KOL Dip Wheeler via airdrop, leaping from $40K to nearly $5M market cap. In the case of $dog, a deployer error sent tokens to a burn address, creating a $SLERF-like story that pushed the token above $8M market cap.
Why This Rally Is Different: FOMO and the ‘VC-ification’ of Memes
This celebrity meme wave is not a mere repeat. After a prolonged drought of high-cap memes on Solana, traders were starved and fearful of missing out. $ANSEM’s surprise surge led to many selling early or missing it entirely. Now FOMO is concentrated in $TJR. More structurally, meme coins are undergoing 'VC-ification': with exchanges curating listings and market makers absent, players accept large insider allocations as long as they can get low-cap exposure with high odds. KOLs like Ansem and TJR act as the new VCs—providing traffic, credibility, and liquidity—a trend that became evident during the TRUMP coin launch. Early-stage degens are already hunting for undervalued endorsers (e.g., bonkguy, him), but sustainability hinges on whether $ANSEM can set a new high; otherwise, sentiment may evaporate quickly.
