Meme-coin lottery — forward testPAPER ONLY
Strategy under test: many tiny bets, paid for by the rare monster.
A win rate as low as 1% is fine — at $2.21 a bet, one true 1000x
($2.1M market cap from a ~$2.1k launch) returns roughly
$1,900 and carries ~860 losers on its back. Everything below is measured through that lens:
keep the future monsters in the net, cut everything else.

A filter earns its place by cutting bets faster than it cuts
winners — "keep" is the share of the cohort's 21 big winners it retained; a filter that
boosts EV but drops the monsters is a trap. Green EV clears the cost line ($2.21).
ORACLE = needs future knowledge, ceiling only. ONE-TOKEN = result rides on a single coin.
Staged entries — pyramid tickets into coins that keep proving themselves
| plan | bets | deployed | returned | ROI | winners held |
| mint only | 3,932 | $8,682 | $790 | -90.9% | 21 |
| graduation only | 127 | $280 | $335 | +19.3% | 20 |
| grad + grind@24h | 127 | $280 | $335 | +19.3% | 20 |
| grad + grind@24h+@72h | 127 | $280 | $335 | +19.3% | 20 |
Instead of one ticket at mint, tickets are added as a coin
passes survival gates: graduation, then still-grinding a day later (≥$60k, within 50% of its high,
live quote), then again at day 3. Winners grind for weeks — persistence is the signal. Gate tranches
activate once coins age past each gate; each tranche settles at its own entry price.
The winners — 276 coins whose ATH cleared $200k (79% were their creator's first launch)
| all-time high reached | coins | continuation |
| $200k (~95x) | 276 | — |
| $1M (~475x) | 171 | 62% of prior rung |
| $2.1M — 1000x | 131 | 77% of prior rung |
| $10M | 73 | 56% of prior rung |
| $21M — 10,000x | 50 | 68% of prior rung |
| $210M — 100,000x | 4 | 8% of prior rung |
From pump.fun's own listing, coins up to 2+ years old.
Survivor-biased: coins that collapsed before the crawl are invisible. Median time from mint to ATH:
19 days ($200k–1M) → 140 days (>$10M) — the big ones grind, they don't spike.
Predictions
None yet — deliberately.
Predictions start publishing here when a filter stack clears
the cost line over a multi-week window with a sample no single coin dominates. Current best honest
candidate: buy at graduation — keeps ~93% of big winners in ~3% of the bets and sits above
cost — with cheap pre-screens (early-buyer count) that so far cut over half the bets while keeping
every winner. Until then this page reports measurements, not tips.
