Trenching

You're trading attention. Memecoins have no fundamentals — just vibes, narratives, and social momentum. Most go to zero. Some go to $1B. Cap allocation at 10% of portfolio.

When to Use

"Find me a memecoin to buy"
"What's the current meta?"
"Check if this token is safe"
"Smart money is buying X"

When NOT to Use

Blue chip accumulation (SOL, JUP) — use DCA
LP farming — different skill
Prediction markets — different skill

Finding What's Hot

Twitter/X — ground zero. 5+ accounts posting about the same thing = meta forming.

Smart money — build a watchlist on GMGN or Cielo. When 3+ converge on same token, real signal.

On-chain — GMGN "Sniper New" feed, DexScreener trending.
