Memecoin 创造者招募足球明星来推销他们的代币，但名人代言无法掩盖可疑的集中化代币分配

在享受阿根廷足球传奇人物莱昂内尔·梅西的无机促销后，基于 Solana 的 memecoin WATER 的价格在 10 小时内飙升 323%。

Memecoin creators are briefly enjoying the success of enlisting soccer stars to shill their tokens, but these celebrity endorsements can't cover up suspiciously centralized token distributions.

Memecoin 的创造者短暂地享受了招募足球明星来推销他们的代币的成功，但这些名人的认可并不能掩盖可疑的中心化代币分配。

The price of WATER, a Solana-based memecoin, surged 323% in 10 hours after enjoying inorganic promotion from the Argentinian soccer legend, Lionel Messi.

在享受阿根廷足球传奇人物莱昂内尔·梅西的无机促销后，基于 Solana 的 memecoin WATER 的价格在 10 小时内飙升 323%。

On July 8, Messi shared a photo of WATER's mascot on his shoulder with his 504 million Instagram followers. Messi's acolytes quickly responded, pushing the price of WATER to a local top of $0.0012 from an all-time low of $0.00028 on the same day, according to CoinGecko.

7月8日，梅西与他的5.04亿Instagram粉丝分享了一张肩上有WATER吉祥物的照片。据 CoinGecko 称，梅西的追随者迅速做出反应，当天将水的价格从 0.00028 美元的历史低点推升至 0.0012 美元的当地最高点。

On the following day, Gaúcho Ronaldinho, another soccer star, followed up with his own picture donning the cartoon mascot, prompting a short-lived bounce in the token's price followed by consolidation.

第二天，另一位足球明星高乔·罗纳尔迪尼奥 (Gaúcho Ronaldinho) 也发布了自己穿着卡通吉祥物的照片，促使代币价格出现短暂反弹，随后出现盘整。

WATER last changed hands for $0.000894 at a market cap of $65 million. However, the asset has crashed 67.6% from its June all-time high — posted one day after the token's launch.

WATER 最后一次易手价格为 0.000894 美元，市值为 6500 万美元。然而，该资产已从 6 月份历史高点（该代币发布一天后发布）暴跌 67.6%。

Centralized control

集中控制

Despite the short-term hype garnered by WATER's celebrity endorsements, blockchain sleuths are raising the alarm on sizable insider token allocations.

尽管 WATER 的名人代言引发了短期炒作，但区块链侦探们仍然对大规模的内部代币分配发出了警报。

Analysis from BubbleMaps, a tool visualizing the distribution of a token's supply, shows that more than 30% of WATER's supply appears to be controlled by insiders. The data indicates that roughly one dozen Solana wallets hold around 35% of WATER tokens, with the three largest commanding 16% of the asset's supply.

BubbleMaps（一种可视化代币供应分布的工具）的分析表明，超过 30% 的 WATER 供应似乎由内部人员控制。数据显示，大约 12 个 Solana 钱包持有约 35% 的 WATER 代币，其中最大的三个钱包占据了该资产供应量的 16%。

“If you want to control your supply, use one or two labeled wallets instead of spreading it across dozens of wallets and being shady about it,” BubbleMaps tweeted.

BubbleMaps 在推特上写道：“如果你想控制你的供应，请使用一两个贴有标签的钱包，而不是分散在数十个钱包中并对其进行遮遮掩掩。”

Crypto analyst Ericonomic warned that WATER investors could be particularly vulnerable to falling prey to a rug-pull exit scam — where large liquidity providers abruptly withdraw their funds from an asset's liquidity pool, leaving the majority of investors unable to sell their funds.

加密货币分析师 Ericonomic 警告称，WATER 投资者可能特别容易成为拉动退出骗局的牺牲品，即大型流动性提供者突然从资产流动性池中撤回资金，导致大多数投资者无法出售其资金。

Ericonomic noted that WATER is the third token that Messi has promoted on social media, with the previous two projects culminating in rug-pulls shortly after Messi spruiked them.

Ericonomic 指出，WATER 是梅西在社交媒体上推广的第三个代币，前两个项目在梅西宣传后不久就以失败告终。

“The first one was Leafty, which was a rug (they removed the liquidity like 5 days later lol),” Ericonomic tweeted. “The second one was PLANET, a slow rug that is like -90% since that promotion. This time it's Water. They will probably rug soon so make yourself a favor and don't buy that sh*t.”

“第一个是 Leafty，它是一张地毯（他们在 5 天后就取消了流动性，哈哈），”Ericonomic 发推文说。 “第二个是 PLANET，这是一张缓慢的地毯，自那次促销以来，它的价格约为 -90%。这次是水。他们可能很快就会铺上地毯，所以帮自己一个忙，不要买那些东西。”

Water claims to champion water-related charitable initiatives, but fails to provide concrete information regarding what organizations it plans to support or how.

Water 声称支持与水相关的慈善活动，但未能提供有关其计划支持哪些组织或如何支持的具体信息。

Solana overtakes Ethereum amid memecoin mania

Solana 在模因币狂热中超越以太坊

Solana's memecoin trading frenzy has propelled the network to overtake Ethereum by on-chain trading volume. On July 9, Solana-based DEXes hosted $14 billion worth of trade — a 93% rise from the prior week — to edge out Ethereum with $13.8 billion.
