2024 Meme Coin Golden Dog Review: SOL, Base, and BNB Chains Become the Main Battleground
Meme Coin Market 2024 Review: Analysis of Golden Dog Quantity and Distribution
In 2024, Meme coin has become the main narrative of the market, with stories of sudden wealth emerging from time to time. While the performance of coins on traditional exchanges remains mediocre, there are still profit opportunities on-chain. This article will provide a comprehensive review of the Meme coin market over the past year, analyzing the quantity, distribution, and wealth effect of gold dogs.
Golden Dog Frequent Chain Analysis
The Golden Dog Meme coin mainly appears on three public chains: SOL, Base, and BNB. Other chains have occasional highlights, but the probability is relatively low.
Solana has become a fertile ground for the Golden Dog project due to its low cost, high performance, and comprehensive Meme coin tools (such as pumpfun).
With the support behind Base, the number of gold dogs has significantly increased, but its maturity is not on par with Solana.
BNB Chain, as an established public chain, relies on strong driving forces and has also nurtured many golden dog projects.
Although Ethereum's high Gas fees result in a low success rate for Meme coins, once a meme dog appears, the wealth effect is strong.
Tron briefly had star projects like SUNDOG, rising with SunPump, but the window period was very short.
Emerging chains like Sui/Aptos are not yet mature in their ecosystems, and the number of gold dogs is scarce.
Golden Dog Quantity Statistics
Define the Golden Dog Standard:
Estimated number of gold dogs on each chain:
Solana: 1,500-2,000 new trading pairs added daily, approximately 550,000-730,000 Meme coins this year. A conservative estimate of the number of Golden Dogs in the past year is 100-150.
Base: 2000-3000 new trading pairs added daily, approximately 730,000-1,100,000 Meme coins within the year. The estimated number of Golden Dogs in the past year was 50-80.
BNB Chain: 500-1000 new trading pairs are added daily, with approximately 180,000-360,000 Meme coins expected this year. A conservative estimate puts the number of Golden Dogs at 30-50 over the past year.
Ethereum: Due to high Gas fees, it is conservatively estimated that the number of golden dogs in the past year is 10-15.
Tron: Mainly driven by the SunPump craze, it is conservatively estimated that the number of gold dogs in the past year is 10-20.
Emerging chains (such as Sui, Aptos, Bitcoin Runes): The ecosystem is not mature, conservatively estimated to be 5-15 gold dogs in the past year.
Golden Dog Time Distribution
Count of Golden Dogs on each chain by quarter:
Solana Dominates: The highest number of gold dogs per quarter, with peaks in Q2 2024 and Q1 2025 (30-40).
Base rapid growth: increased from 10-15 in Q2 to 15-25 in Q4, reflecting the capital inflow and ecological maturity in 2024.
BNB Chain remains stable overall: Slight increase in Q4 (10-15 coins).
Ethereum Scarcity: Only 2-5 per quarter, high Gas fees limit the outbreak.
Tron had short-term peaks: In Q3, there were 5-7 due to SUNDOG and SunPump, followed by a decline.
Overall distribution is relatively balanced: a total of 205-330 throughout the year, averaging 50-80 per quarter, with Q4 (56-90) being the peak of the year.
Profit Address Analysis
"Grabbing the address of the golden dog" refers to obtaining addresses that have increased by more than 10 times, typically early participants who bought shortly after the project launched, or those who accurately bottomed out during price troughs.
The opportunity for a 10x increase is mainly concentrated in the initial stage of the "Golden Dog" explosion, with the window usually lasting only a few hours. Whales and early investors capture most of the profits, with most addresses buying at high prices, missing the 10x window.
Solana and Base may have a slightly higher profit address ratio (2%-5%) due to low costs and high transaction volumes; Ethereum has a lower ratio (0.5%-2%) due to high Gas fees.
Summary
Gold Dog Distribution: Solana, Base, and BNB Chain are the most active, with Solana performing the best.
Number of Gold Dogs: In the past year, Solana produced 100-150, Base 50-80, and BNB Chain 30-50.
Time distribution: Q4 2024 will be the peak in the number of Golden Dogs, generating 56-90 projects.
Profit Situation: Opportunities are concentrated within a few hours after the project goes live. On the Solana chain, about 2%-5% of addresses achieve over 10 times the profit, approximately 900,000 to 3.6 million addresses.
Market Features:
Although on-chain trading activities may temporarily decrease, opportunities still exist. The meme coin market still has potential, and investors should stay alert and be prepared.
