I've tracked every major memecoin launchpad since inception.
Here are my ethically questionable notes on what could make a launchpad successful by ANY means necessary:
Establishing your flagship runner
The moment your community rallies around a coin, pour gasoline on it. You NEED a movement coin that goes up forever, think BONK, WIF, POPCAT.
Make it so deeply engrained in your platform's success that holders are afraid of selling.
Jup Studio has URANUS, BonkFun has USELESS, PumpFun has TROLL, Bags has BTH.
Rally your entire team behind ONE coin. Pay for every listing. Exhaust every connection. Now is the time to call your ex whose husband got that job at KuCoin.
Your flagship's success IS your platform's success.
Trenchers CRAVE new narratives, and there's no better narrative engine than a mega runner.
HYPER-incentivise token creators
Creators drive narrative. Traders and snipers follow whatever is hot.
I'd argue, If you can lock the top 10 creators to exclusively launch on your platform for 1-2 hours during peak times, you'll capture the entire market.
When launchpads gain traction, top creators move first. Always.
Bonk rolled out 10 different initiatives leading up to their takeover. Bags hyper-incentivised creators (& royalty collectors) with up to 80% of trading fees. Creating tokens on Pump is literally FREE, mass-deployer heaven.
Take over the timeline.
Sentiment is everything. Dominate X by any means necessary.
I don't know if Pump actually bribed KOLs or if they're just diehard bagholders. Either way, they saved the platform.
When their king returned, supporters had already won the narrative war. They recaptured the market in 5 hours.
While I'd like to believe in harmony and compassion, the market is the market and CT is CT. Whether "doing what it takes" means tearing down competition or lifting your platform is up to you.
(All assuming you already have, 1. a chronically online CT founder 2. Some novel tech 3. a cracked community/BD guy)
