[Coin Metrics Research: Memecoins Peak in 17 Days on Average, Drop 95% in 370 Days]
According to a report by Coin Metrics on October 7, as covered by Golden Finance, the institution conducted a survival analysis on 150 Solana-era memecoins. The findings revealed that the median time for tokens to reach their all-time high after their first trade was 17.2 days, with a quarter of them peaking within 1.6 days. The median time for a 95% drop from the peak was 370 days. Additionally, 81% of tokens have fallen more than 90% from their peak, and only 3% have ever returned to their all-time high. Currently, the number of active addresses retained by major memecoins is less than 7% of their peak levels, and over half of the tokens are priced 95% lower than their peak value. Out of the 151 tokens analyzed, only 5 are priced higher than their first-day value. The author notes that the sample only includes tokens with prices listed on centralized exchanges, systematically excluding the massive number of tokens generated by platforms like pump.fun. Therefore, the findings should be regarded as an illustrative model rather than precise statistics.
