How to Make 100x profit in the Trump shooting incident?
On July 14th, while speaking at a campaign rally, Trump was shot in the ear, raising his right fist while being escorted by security. Afterwards, Trump meme concepts surged; within one hour, TRUMP skyrocketed nearly 70%, and MAGA surged 33% within the same hour. Additionally, several related meme coins appeared on Solana, with coins like FIGHT and EAR seeing gains of over 100% after their launch.
Last night, Trump posted a new social email update at UTC 3:51, captioned “FEAR NOT, I am Trump, and I will lead America to greatness again!” Subsequently, a meme token named “FEAR NOT” appeared on Solana, surging 33 times within two hours.
Explosive news events always quickly spawn a series of related meme tokens, some of which show gains exceeding 100-fold, creating enormous profit opportunities. How did this “smart money” come about, and what are their characteristics for capturing high-profit opportunities?
Within 15 minutes, existing coins rallied
Reports of Trump being shot first appeared with Bloomberg journalist Walter announcing Trump’s shooting at 6:15 am on the 14th. Fifteen minutes later, Trump concept coins began to rally.

Previously, the leading Trump concept token, TRUMP, led the charge. By 6:22 am on the 14th, TRUMP had surged 70% in 40 minutes before starting to decline around 7 am with a trading volume of $6.01 million. Subsequently, MAGA also began a surge around 6:28 am, continuing for 40 minutes with a 46% increase before declining starting at 7:10 am with a trading volume of $3.37 million.

Apart from established memes, this unexpected event also spawned many related concept tokens like EAR, Fight, SURVIVOR, FIST, MISSED, and HERO, along with corresponding derivatives such as EAR IS FINE and EARWIF.
For meme speculation, the process of events fermenting, token creation, and rallying has become a standard procedure. These tokens represented by the above names are not singular; searching any of these words on any dex will yield dozens of similarly named tokens. According to gmgn data, there are 24 tokens named “Fight” on Solana and 23 on Ethereum, while EAR has 11 on Solana and 5 on Ethereum.

Due to the difficulty in tracing the birth time of most memes, BlockBeats examined the birth times of some of the more popular tokens, with only FIGHT and EAR showing significant gains, coincidentally released 15 minutes after the news.
According to dexscreener data, the most significant gain in FIGHT, released on the morning of the 14th at 6:50 am, is still rising, showing three spikes. The first spike appeared around 11:45 am on the 14th, maintaining near $0.004 for nearly an hour before starting to decline. Six hours later, it hit a low point of $0.002 and rebounded around 10:30 pm to a local high of $0.013. Subsequently, with increased sell orders, FIGHT experienced a significant decline again and began to rise again today.
EAR, surviving longer than FIGHT, was released at 6:37 am on the 14th and reached its peak of $0.032 at 1:15 pm, seeing a gain of over 60 times in seven hours. At around 3:30 pm, EAR started to decline to around $0.025 and was priced at $0.0035 at the time of writing, with a market capitalization of $3.7 million and a trading volume of $43.1 million.

Meanwhile, FIST and SURVIVOR, the second hottest tokens, were released later, FIST at 8:21 am on the 14th and SURVIVOR at 1:05 am on the 15th, both of which have now returned to zero.
How does smart money achieve hundredfold memes?
According to gmgn.ai data, in addition to FIGHT and EAR, many related memes were created around half past six in the morning, but perhaps the lack of a shout-out did not attract much attention. Among these dozens or even hundreds of related memes, how did smart money accurately pick that hundredfold meme? BlockBeats tracked early purchases of the aforementioned EAR and FIGHT memes by smart money addresses.
Luck accounts for the main component
The luckiest winner on FIGHT is LCJFe’s starting address, which bought in 23 minutes after opening at an average cost of $0.00017 and sold the principal after doubling the price, currently floating at $576,000, more than a hundredfold.

Another address starting with CLegS specializes in celebrity tokens, with celebrity tokens accounting for more than half of all holdings, but almost all were wiped out. Overall, the rise of Trump concept tokens this time kept its total profit positive despite MAGA’s loss.
In this Trump shooting case, he bought five related tokens, including FIGHT, EAR, FIST, SURVIVOR, and MAGA. Except for MAGA, the other four memes have realized profits of over $470,000, with about $233,600 in unrealized profits.
The address starting with BS4gh belongs to a “hotspot” player. In addition to FIGHT, the tokens it holds include BOME, WIF, and MOTHER. Although the latter three are memes highly regarded in the circle, they are late to buy and currently only float $82.
Meanwhile, the biggest winner on EAR is Qwerty (address starting with 81RYq), with a total cost of $224 and a final profit of more than $220,000, achieving a return of 1,309 times. His strategy is to cast a wide net, buying 15 to 30 meme coins a day at a cost of $100 to $300, waiting for the lottery EAR.

KOL can earn money, but it can’t sell on the peak.
KOL’s address movement and shout-out situation have an important impact on the price trend of meme coins.
Thirty-six minutes after EAR appeared, KOL “0xSun” with more than 90 K Twitter followers bought EAR in two installments at $0.0015 and $0.0019 for a total of more than $2700. At this time, EAR’s market value was less than $2 million. In the next eight hours, EAR broke through $32 million. However, 0xSun did not sell at the peak. If calculated at the peak, 0xSun’s maximum profit could reach 16 times. But in this wave of market, 0xSun’s actual return rate is 1.36 times.

On FIGHT, KOL “Neso” with more than 30K fans bought at a cost of $434 two hours after the token went online and released a shout-out tweet about half an hour after buying. Afterwards, FIGHT continued to rise. After earning 6 times, Neso began to ship one after another, and the last one sold at a phased high, leaving the rest. As FIGHT broke through a historical high, Neso’s unrealized profit on it reached $17,000.

Incomplete “coin recognition” guide
After summarizing these lucky smart money, it will be found that it is not only buying within dozens of minutes after the token goes online to achieve high returns. These gold coins were launched 20 minutes after the sudden news report, and the “production speed” was very fast, but the process of “upgrading to gold coins” took several hours. Even if you buy two hours after the opening, there is still a hundredfold profit space.
Capture common techniques of meme coins
First of all, it is crucial to closely follow hot news and judge its potential influence. It is necessary to maintain a keen sense of smell for meme coins related to sudden events, timely select concept coins related to events, and closely monitor their trends.
In addition, paying attention to smart money and reputable KOL addresses is also an effective strategy. Smart money and KOL often have richer market experience and more acute market sense. Following their trends can increase the probability of success. At the same time, diversifying investments is also an important strategy to reduce risks. As some smart money actions take, wide casting nets and multi-point layouts may not bring huge returns to every investment, but there are always some that can stand out and achieve returns of hundreds or even thousands of times.
Finally, timely cashing in is also a key strategy. In the case of volatile markets, it is essential to retrieve the initial investment cost in time to ensure that there is no loss in any situation and to protect investment income. Maintain rationality and calmness, avoid blindly following the trend due to temporary fluctuations, have your own judgment and strategy. In this way, even in turbulent markets, steady progress can be made and seize the opportunity of meme coins brought by the next sudden event.
In summary, capturing meme coins of sudden events requires not only luck but also keen market insight and scientific investment strategy. However, meme coins fluctuate sharply, and investors need to pay attention to risk identification.
