In degen you have to go where the hype is There's a hype on Base and on #ERC404 so I'm going to focus on that ! For a hype to be created a token has to explode, and this is the case with #Pandora Eth could print big but Base launches are stealthier, fewer bots so better entry

I spent all day in front of the new pairs on dexscreener, created less than an hour ago. The link with my filter : First I look at the name, then if the liquidity is at least $1/2k. If everything looks good, I digg more.

For example, I found Troves at launch, which then went on to x100 I'm checking to see if it's an ERC404. For that, there must be 0 holders, and the purchase transactions are mint (check on basescan)

Then I try to find the socials to see if the project is being worked or a larp. Often it's indicated on the contract, or I look for the name on Telegram and twitter. To buy, I want a twitter, a TG with chat open, a good website.

You can also check the NFT design by pasting the token contract on Opensea If I have time, I check the wallet deployer's transactions, to see if it hasn't rug before For ex I've spotted a dev who rug many times by bridging through Orbiter, and not putting all his ETH in the LP.

The idea is to become an explorer expert, here Basescan, to find the maximum amount of information in a few seconds, and make the best possible decision. The token can be x5 in a few minutes and you want to be one of the first to buy but also avoid rugs.

With experience, you quickly spot scams, insider tokens with potential thanks to volume, and underestimated projects. If the project doesn't seem very safe, I'll TP my investment in x2, for example, to take the least risk. I try to buy only under 10K MC if possible. Never fomo

Thanks to this, I was able to be early on $TROVES and also $SWPRS that have performed well without having any insider info. I've also bought scams, but the gains more than make up for the losses. I adapt my bet according to what I've observed (site, tg, twitter, nft design...)

If you're just starting out, be very very careful. I've been doing this for months and months But there are a lot of traps and maybe 95% scams, so try to look without betting anything at first. Just observe ! We may also be at the end of the hype so tips to use for the next one

The idea is to be there at the start of the hype, before the scammers arrive. Thank you for reading, if you have any questions don't hesitate to reply to the tweet. Tell me what you'd like to have threads on, and a little RT or like is always appreciated 🙏 Hippo 🦛

@0xHippV It’s very inspiring! Thank you for sharing! After the unsuccessful p2e, the nfts rug, it makes you want to be interested in this kind of strategy! I'm going to look at it more seriously I think
