Solana mints more than 263,000 new tokens in a day, setting a record

Solana posted a record day for new token creation, with more than 263,000 new SPL tokens minted on Wednesday, according to Solscan data cited by Cointelegraph. The figure was well above the 40,000 to 50,000 daily range seen at the peak of the memecoin cycle in December 2024. Of the 40,360 tokens launched through launchpads, Pump.fun accounted for 34,184, making it the dominant venue in that segment. The report said launchpads let creators design, issue, and trade memecoins without deep technical knowledge, while automating token creation and giving new assets immediate liquidity and visibility. DefiLlama data also showed that Pump.fun remained Solana’s top native protocol by daily revenue, generating $1.8 million over the past 24 hours. Last Friday, however, its daily revenue was briefly surpassed by Fomo, a trading app that combines crypto trading with social media features. Even with memecoin activity cooling, Pump.fun contributed $124 million of Solana’s $342 million in total revenue in the first quarter of 2026, or roughly one-third of the total.

PEPE whales sold 80 billion tokens since Aug. 25 as key support level comes into focus

On-chain data cited by Techub News shows that whale addresses holding between 10 million and 100 million PEPE have sold a combined 80 billion tokens since Aug. 25. Over the same stretch, smaller holders with 100,000 to 10 million PEPE accumulated only 5.06 billion tokens, pointing to a notable imbalance between selling and buying activity. PEPE was trading near $0.00000348 after facing resistance at $0.00000364, the token’s 200-day exponential moving average. CoinJournal said technical indicators were leaning bearish, with the relative strength index drifting toward the neutral 50 level and the MACD posting a bearish crossover last week. Analysts cited in the report said a daily close below the $0.00000313 support could trigger a deeper pullback toward $0.00000230, which would represent about a 34% decline from the current price. On the upside, a break above the 200-day EMA resistance could leave room for a rebound toward $0.00000442.

Hunter Biden’s LAPTOP says bots and thin liquidity warped launch after 98% crash

Hunter Biden’s LAPTOP said a 98% plunge following its memecoin debut was tied to thin liquidity and automated traders, which the team said distorted the token’s launch. The statement points to market structure at launch rather than offering other explanations for the drop. Separate data from blockchain analytics firm Nansen showed that some early buyers were left with six-figure losses after the token began trading. The move highlights how quickly losses can build in newly launched memecoins when liquidity is limited and early trading is dominated by automated activity. CoinDesk reported the comments and the Nansen data in its market coverage published on Sept. 10, 2026.

Hunter Biden’s $LAPTOP token launches on Base, then drops more than 95% within hours

Hunter Biden, the son of former U.S. President Joe Biden, launched the memecoin $LAPTOP on Base on Sept. 9, using a name tied directly to the “Hunter Biden laptop” controversy that became a major political flashpoint during the 2020 U.S. presidential election. The token briefly traded above roughly $190 to $220 after launch before collapsing to under $2 in a short period, a decline of more than 95%. According to Bubblemaps, about 80% of $LAPTOP traders were at a loss, while the token’s supply was highly concentrated before trading began, leaving it exposed to a high risk of rapid selling. The project had already drawn criticism before launch. Kraken posted and later deleted promotional material related to the token after community backlash, and video creator Andrew Callaghan publicly distanced himself from it. Base also moved quickly to say that $LAPTOP was able to deploy on the chain because Base is permissionless, not because Coinbase or Base endorsed the token. Base creator Jesse Pollak said the team had been approached by the project beforehand but deliberately chose not to help design or promote it. The launch also revived criticism from crypto users who pointed to the Biden administration’s hardline regulatory stance toward the industry.

Hunter Biden-Linked LAPTOP Crashes 99% in Three Hours, Quickly Nearing TRUMP’s Valuation

LAPTOP, a memecoin linked to Hunter Biden, lost 99% of its value within three hours of starting to trade on Base on Wednesday morning, according to The Defiant. The token quickly fell from triple-digit prices in its opening minutes to roughly the same range as TRUMP, the token launched in President Donald Trump’s name three days before his second inauguration. Because both tokens have a total supply of 1 billion, their prices can be compared directly as fully diluted valuations. The report said LAPTOP opened at 12:00 UTC and dropped from $247.55 on Aerodrome Slipstream’s first five-minute bucket to $1.90 by 15:20 UTC. Trading volume reached $13.4 million on Aerodrome and $11.3 million on Uniswap V4 over that span. CoinGecko data cited by The Defiant showed LAPTOP at $1.93 and a $678.4 million market cap at 15:25 UTC, while TRUMP traded at $2.16 with a $2.16 billion fully diluted valuation. The article also detailed LAPTOP’s token design, including a mechanism that allocates 30% of supply to prediction-linked outcomes, and noted differences between the project’s published token allocation and pre-launch reporting by The Wall Street Journal. BaseScan holder data showed more than 25,400 holders as airdrop claims continued to settle.

Hunter Biden-themed $LAPTOP drops 99% from peak after explosive launch

Hunter Biden-themed memecoin $LAPTOP has fallen 99% from its all-time high, according to Protos, after a launch that briefly pushed its market capitalization to extreme levels. With a total supply of 1 billion tokens, the token reportedly reached a $110 billion market cap within minutes of going live. At the time of writing cited by the report, its fully diluted valuation had dropped to $1.9 billion, while the token traded just below $2 after peaking at $316. Protos said one-minute volume was averaging between $20,000 and $30,000 based on DEX Screener data. The report also said the token’s release drew criticism over trading activity at launch. Several observers claimed sniper bots were active, with analyst Dethective estimating one sniper made about $190,000 and analyst Donaxbt saying the most profitable sniper they saw earned $335,000. Others were reported to have made more than $60,000. Separately, Lookonchain claimed market maker Wintermute had already sold $2 million worth of $LAPTOP that it received from the token team.

The move marked a fast and severe reversal immediately after launch, with the price collapse unfolding within minutes of the token’s market debut.

Hunter Biden says 30% of LAPTOP supply will track public predictions and charity before Base launch

Hunter Biden released a fuller breakdown of the tokenomics for his LAPTOP memecoin one day before its planned launch on Base, Coinbase’s layer-2 network. The structure ties 30% of the token’s 1 billion supply to 30 public prediction events, many linked to Polymarket markets. If an event resolves yes, the related tokens will be burned; if it resolves no, the tokens will go to charity. Separately, another 50 million tokens are earmarked for charity regardless of outcomes. The allocation also gives 30% to founders, including Biden, under a six-month lock-up and a 24-month vesting schedule. Community distribution accounts for 20%, with half claimable at the token generation event and the rest left to the Phoenix Veritas Foundation’s discretion. Biden’s “Where’s Hunter?” Substack subscribers are set to receive 8%, while wallets that lost money on TRUMP are allocated 2%. Biden also said buyers “should not expect me or anyone else to make this token more valuable,” as copycat tokens have already started appearing across Base, Robinhood Chain, and Solana.
