πŸ›‘οΈOverview

Difficulty: Intermediate / Steps: 4 steps / Time: ~5–10 minutes per discovery session

πŸ”₯ Value

Pairs early volume detection with wallet-level confirmation. Ideal for catching new launches or stealth meme plays before they trend on Twitter or CT.

πŸ‘€ Who Should Use This

  • Degen traders hunting pre-hype launches

  • Smart Money observers tracking copy-trade opportunities

  • Micro-cap specialists focused on Solana, Ethereum, and Base

⚠️ Workflow

  1. Open Token Screener

    • Set to 5-minute interval

    • Filter by Micro Cap

    • Focus on Solana, Ethereum, or Base

  2. Toggle Smart Money on/off

    • Compare retail interest vs Smart Money conviction

  3. Open Smart Money > DEX Trades in a second tab

    • Look for tokens with no name or unknown contract addresses

    • Prioritize those with multiple buys in quick succession

  4. Enter when:

    • 2+ Smart Money wallets buy the same token

    • Token appears in both Token Screener and DEX Trades within a short time window

❓When to Use This

  • During active trading sessions (e.g., mornings in U.S. or Asia timezones)

  • When volatility increases across micro-cap ecosystems

  • Just after narrative shifts (e.g., new L2 launch, memecoin trend, etc.)

βš™οΈ Feature Spotlight

  • Token Screener β†’ 5-minute + micro-cap filter

  • Smart Money toggle to isolate alpha wallets

  • Smart Money β†’ DEX Trades to validate contract-level conviction

πŸ’‘Pro Tip

If the token has no name and is being bought by 2+ wallets, it’s likely a stealth launch β€” use Token God Mode to quickly verify LP and holder info before jumping in.
