Ranking Solana Memecoins: The Smart Money Playbook

The world of memecoins is always changing, influenced by both meme culture and speculative investment behavior.

The world of memecoins is in a constant state of flux, influenced by the ever-evolving trends in meme culture and the speculative behavior of investors.

Recently, there has been a surge of interest in Solana-based memecoins, with several tokens attracting the attention of what are known as “smart money” investors. These are experienced, strategic investors who usually provide the best indication of which tokens might have staying power and generate positive returns in the volatile memecoin market.

We decided to take a look at some of the Solana memecoins, rank them according to net inflow, and share some insights into current market dynamics.

Ranking Solana Memecoins: The Smart Money Playbook

As of this 24-hour period, $MNDE has the highest net flow, a strong signal of recent demand from the smart money capital. This is a clear influx of capital that bodes well for the $MNDE token, indicating that it has potential for growth and experienced, institutional-level investors are making bets on it in a way that strongly resembles a pattern of buying up something with good potential. The consistent growth pattern of $MNDE over the past few months shows at least two things: 1) It seems to be in the right place at the right time, and 2) It looks to be in one of the most consistent upward trends of anything you might consider a “meme coin” on Solana.

In second place is $FARTCOIN, which, while not exhibiting some of the explosive growth of other tokens, is still managing a significant net flow. The inflow suggests that smart money continues to have confidence in the token. Net flow is, however, insufficient to short-term surge any more than the token was already surging. The real takeaway is that there is some kind of steady demand for $FARTCOIN—demand that by all accounts seems to be maintaining momentum. Whether that is leading to or from any more significant price actions in the short term is hard to say.

One token that stands out is $MLG, with a net flow of $45.20K, despite a much smaller market cap of only $7.4 million. This combination—of a solid net flow with a much lower market cap—suggests to me that $MLG could either be on the verge of some significant growth or a pretty decent rebound play. Tokens with much lower market caps can often experience much stronger percentage growth, which makes them attractive to smart money investors who are looking for opportunities in definitely undervalued assets. Given its market cap and that noticeable net flow, $MLG is one to watch if you believe in the power of memecoins still having some room to run.

Market Trends: Large Caps vs. Smaller Tokens

Although $JUP and $LAYER enjoy considerable market capitalizations, they seem to be drawing very little interest from investors at the present time. The au courant that these tokens might be on the verge of a breakout has not yet caught the imagination of much money that is smart. Not only is this potentially a bearish sign, but it also means that, if you’re considering taking a position in these tokens, you might be doing so in a market that is nevertheless in consolidation or melting down.

Some of the tokens, such as these: $SWARMS, $GIGA, $SSE, and $PWEASE, are actually not doing too badly, with some appearing quite well and good throughout. Now, these are what I consider investment tokens—you can do pretty much anything with them, and you should feel confident holding onto them, even if their prices might not be shooting up like they are with some other tokens. This is what I call holding. And I don’t think there’s a damn thing wrong with that. In fact, there are many who esteem this action as one worthy of performing virtuously.

Low-Cap Tokens: Speculative Opportunities

At the other end of the spectrum are $HAWK, $SYMX, and $PROME. These are low-market-cap tokens that could present speculative opportunities for investors who are willing to gamble for the chance of high rewards. Viewed generally, these three tokens might be considered undervalued or overlooked. But these tokens, while perhaps attractive to some investors, also present a significant risk because of their price volatility. If the three tokens manage to accomplish something—like generating sales or getting their story out—their price could change significantly and relatively quickly.

Those investors who have an interest in these tokens should be cognizant of the fact that
