A Week in CT: June 01-08, 2025

gm, doppelbangers. Today is a big day. This is the first ever doppelbanger post.

A WEEK IN CT

Sunday, June 1. @StayLoudio’s $LOUD experiment (attention = token value) goes live.

• Presale Phase 1: 225,000 $LOUD for 0.20 SOL → over 20 SOL

• Presale Phase 2: 56,250 $LOUD for 0.05 SOL → over 5 SOL

• Market cap now sitting around $2M, a week after launch

• Verdict: solid 100x returns for early investors, but the loud-to-market-cap ratio felt off for most

• Takeaway: Either attention ≠ token value, or CT’s attention is just currently overvalued

Monday, June 2. CT calls out @frankdegods and @LexaproTrader shenanigans over $DEAL pump

• The timeline:

  • $DEAL goes live

  • Seconds later: @frankdegods buys in at $24.6K market cap

  • 3 minutes later: @LexaproTrader drops bullish thesis thread

• The sus:

  • Frankdegods buying “3% of a fresh shitter after 0 on chain activity for days”

  • Lexapro’s typing speed to drop a bullish thesis that fast. Lexapro defended himself, claiming he wrote it pre-launch with publicly available information

  • $DEAL is from Ryder Ripps, who was previously sued for selling replicas of BAYC NFTs

Tuesday, June 3. KaitoAI goes beyond Twitter. The crypto social tracking platform is launching on Tiktok and Instagram, planning separate yaps leaderboards for each.

Wednesday, June 4. BLOCKWORKS: Pump.fun plans $1B token sale at $4B FDV. Magic Eden announced officially building the $TRUMP Wallet (in a now deleted tweet)

• Pump.fun $1B token sale speculations:

  • Wen: Launching in the next 2 weeks

  • Airdrop: ”There will definitely be an airdrop,” Mert tweets

  • 25% sale, 10% airdrop, 30% Team
    

• MagicEden’s TRUMP Wallet disaster: A masterclass on how to NOT do comms

  • @MagicEden announces on Twitter they’re building “official” @TRUMPWalletApp

  • @DonaldJTrumpJr claims Trump Organization has zero involvement

  • @TRUMPWalletApp twitter account suspended

  • MagicEden quietly deletes their announcement tweet

  • On June 7, ME cowardly announces no longer moving forward with Trump Wallet on their Discord’s ME stakers channel, a gated channel.

Thursday, June 5. Day 1 of Solana Summit in Da Nang, Vietnam
