While the AI and life science meme wave continues, TikTok once again brings memes to new traffic heights.
TikTok Meme coin CHILL GUY has been rising since the 19th, with a 24-hour trading volume of over $300 million and a market value of $500 million, which has attracted the market's attention to TikTok Meme. At the same time, many popular TikTok Meme coins have been created, and the market FOMO sentiment has continued to increase. But which TikTok Meme coins have really come out? As Buffett said, only after the tide has passed can you tell who is swimming naked.
Odaily Odaily also experienced the TikTok Meme wave in depth at the first time, and compiled a mental journey, and introduced two TikTok Meme projects with certain explosive potential.
Meme experience: After watching videos all night, my account lost 50%
Last night, I was looking for the code to wealth in various meme groups and found that the meme on TikTok began to spread in the crypto.
Since I didn't catch up with AI and life science memes, I rushed in with a few SOLs. I would like to thank the super hot sister from HTX for introducing me to the current TikTok meme situation.
According to information, the most popular meme at present is CHILL GUY (also known as Dragon One), which took only 4 days to reach a market value of $500 million, with a 24-hour trading volume of over $550 million. As soon as you open the TikTok App, you will see related recommendations. Subsequently, related popular memes such as WAIT, HUZZ and GRIDDY have also begun to emerge.
As a meme novice who adheres to the theory of value investment, I first downloaded TikTok, and then started "watching videos" on major related hot topics, trying to find the true meaning of TikTok Meme.
First, choose the most popular CHILL GUY to start researching. What comes into view is a cartoon character similar to a guinea pig, with his hands in his pockets and an indifferent look, telling how to look at various things calmly. I have to say that this image, coupled with the more magical background music, makes people "fall" quickly. I immediately opened GMGN and started to study the market. At that time, the market value was breaking through 500 million US dollars, and the price was also rising. I was afraid that "the car would not wait for me", so I immediately bought some tokens with SOL.
Later, I started to study related popular memes such as WAIT, HUZZ and GRIDDY. WAIT comes from a magical dance, similar to the domestic TikTok, and users are imitating and filming; HUZZ is like a newly developed slang, and many people ask what it means in the comments or videos. Personally, I think it roughly represents the buzzing sound, and the rest of the memes are similar.
The author browsed around and thought he had a strong understanding of TikTok Meme. The following is a paragraph I wrote after researching last night, which also combines the remarks made by the Placeholder partner yesterday afternoon.
Meme has a characteristic, that is, it needs to be recognized by a certain group of people in order to form a meme culture. Previously, most meme coins in the crypto world needed to be gradually cultivated after the coins were issued, and even required investors to brainwash themselves to recognize the meme coin culture. However, the pre-certified meme culture in TikTok itself has a huge group behind it to support it. As Placeholder partner Chris Burniske said, "When meme coins are combined with the viral spread of TikTok, it will reach a peak." This combination itself is the large-scale adoption that Web3 has always pursued, but this time it is the active integration of Web2, and the significance behind it is extraordinary.
What’s interesting is that I found out this morning that my Meme account had a direct loss of 50%. Only two of the memes I studied yesterday are still alive. One is CHILL GUY, which lost 50%, and the other is WAIT. Others like HUZZ and GRIDDY are about to return to zero or run away.
I am very glad that I did not choose HUZZ and GRIDDY with small market capitalization, otherwise today's article would be full of "rebellion". I summarized and reflected on some mistakes I made in the operation, and wrote them down for your reference and warning.
When you are influenced by the cultural attributes of Meme, you should be more rational when buying tokens to analyze whether it is at the right point, and don’t be FOMO. Just like what I did yesterday, I was afraid that "the car would not wait for me" and ignored the current market sentiment, resulting in a loss of 50% and chasing a high point.
Most meme coins are rare and can be verified by the market for a long time. How to choose the large MC memecoin among many memes requires consideration of first mover and market spread. Although CHILL GUY made me lose 50%, I still think it is valuable, first mover, high market value, and verified by the market. HUZZ and GRIDDY were created more after CHILL GUY became popular. They may have profits, but the PVP attribute is too heavy and not suitable for meme novices.
Skilled in using tools, such as checking the on-chain holdings, etc. I am not an expert in this area and am still learning. But my colleagues are good at this, such as Nanzhi's copy trading school, Golem's rush opening method, and Asher's investment theory, etc. For detailed plans, you can see the full record of Meme operations updated weekly by Odaily.
As of now, I am still optimistic about CHILL GUY and will increase my position at the appropriate time. It is worth noting that Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele just posted a picture on X with the meme concept CHILLGUY as the theme, and CHILLGUY has returned to a market value of US$500 million. But one thing I need to remind everyone is that there is no official Twitter account or obvious organization for this coin. The advantage is that it is very meme, but it may also be a wave, which is quite different from the previous AI and life science memes.
There are currently two ways to find TikTok Memes: one is to watch TikTok’s popular videos, then find keywords and check on the chain to see if there are tokens with the same name, but be aware of the risks and choose tokens with a high number of holding addresses and strong liquidity; the second is to rely on social media and Meme groups to understand which Meme most players are currently optimistic about. This method may chase high prices, but it is more certain.
In short, TikTok Meme is a new form. With TikTok as the first frontier, it can attract a lot of fresh traffic from Web2 to Web3, which is different from the previous way of birth of Meme coins. But there are also many projects that take advantage of the hot spots. After one night, many CHILL-related tokens began to emerge. Since TikTok Meme has not been around for a long time, the author's experience last night can also reflect that the lifespan of most tokens is very short. I hope everyone will choose carefully.
CHILL GUY
CHILL GUY is the iconic meme coin of TikTok Meme. CHILL GUY originated from a video released by blogger helicoptero_eli on September 13. The cartoon characters in the video showed a relatively calm mood and were indifferent to most things. With the brainwashing background music, it became popular on TikTok. However, according to the release time of other derivative videos, it was not widely promoted from September 13 to early November. Until the past few days, related derivative videos have spread wildly, with a total of 24,000 related videos on the entire network and an overall playback volume of over 20 million.
Just like the name of CHILL GUY, its characteristics are calmness, emotional stability and a calm attitude towards life. Words may not be able to describe it very accurately, please watch the video.

WAIT
WAIT originated from a magical dance in TikTok, which attracted users from all over the world to imitate it. It is more popular than CHILL GUY, with a total of 1.5 million videos on the entire network and over 100 million views. However, WAIT should be inspired by CHILL GUY and created on Solana.
Personally, I feel that WAIT does not have such a wide cultural influence, and compared to CHILL GUY, it lacks some content foundation.
According to GMGN data, WAIT is 0.02 USDT, with a 24-hour increase of 89%, a market value of 20 million US dollars, and a 24-hour trading volume of 136 million US dollars.
