A blessing ignites a $6 billion frenzy: The Meme wealth creation experiment on BSC

How much is a meme worth?

Where is the most absurd place in the crypto market? A meme might be worth more than a tech company.

No white paper? Not important. No technological innovation? Doesn't matter. No practical application? Who cares. As long as there's a catchy meme, it can unlock hundreds of millions of dollars in a few days. This is the magic of meme coins.

In October 2025, the BSC chain witnessed a textbook-level wealth creation frenzy. What was different this time was that it wasn't a grassroots spontaneous growth, but rather an active entry by top-tier forces. From He Yi's Chinese blessing to CZ's intensive interactions, and then the rapid launch of official platforms, the collision of cultural resonance and capital power produced an astonishing chemical reaction.

When the token “Binance Life,” imbued with a strong Chinese internet vibe, suddenly emerged, when the on-chain trading volume surged to $6 billion in just a few days, and when tens of thousands of new players flocked in, what we witnessed was not just another round of speculative bubbles, but a spectacular interpretation of the power game in the crypto world.

Blessings Have Become a Money Printing Machine

On October 4th, Binance co-founder He Yi replied to a post on social media in Chinese: “Wishing you to own a Binance car, live in a Binance community, and enjoy a Binance life”.

This joke precisely hit the excitement point of the Chinese community. Almost simultaneously, the “Binance Life” Meme coin was born. How sharp is the community's sense? What they see is not just a meme, but a map to wealth.

A clear “Coin Listing Ladder” template is circulating in the community: Community Warm-up → Founder Interaction → Alpha Launch → Listing on a Certain Platform → Contract Launch → Spot Trading. This path has become the ultimate dream for every BSC Meme coin project, and He Yi's interaction is seen as the first step onto this ladder.

The real turning point comes from CZ. On October 6, CZ replied to a tweet about “Binance Life”, which the community interpreted as “endorsement from the co-founders”, and the FOMO sentiment began to ferment. On October 7, “Binance Life” landed on Alpha, and the market was completely boiling. This proves that the “Coin Listing Ladder” is not a fantasy, but a viable path.

The most critical signal appeared on October 8. CZ stated on social media that “BNB meme szn” (BNB Meme season) has arrived. This clear signal from the top has spread the frenzy from a single project to the entire BSC ecosystem.

On-chain data directly witnesses the frenzy: According to DeFiLlama statistics, daily trading volume on BNB chain DEX surged to $6.05 billion, attracting over 100,000 new traders. On-chain analytics platform Bubblemaps shows that nearly 70% of early participants made a profit. This high profit rate created a strong positive feedback loop, making more people believe “this time is different”.

Stars on Stage

Want to understand the secret to the success of BSC Meme coins? You need to take a look at the star projects standing in the spotlight.

The success mantra of “Binance Life” is simple: believe in a platform, win in life. This slogan directly corresponds to the common dream of countless users - achieving financial freedom through trading. Its narrative is rooted in the deep emotional resonance within the global Chinese-speaking community, which holds an important position in the vast user base.

The peak data is astonishing. The market capitalization of “Binance Life” has exceeded 524 million USD, and the story of “from 1000 USD to 1 million” is going viral on social media. According to monitoring by Lookonchain, the myth of wealth creation that “an investment of 5 BNB ultimately valued at 1.6 million USD” has pushed the market's FOMO to its peak.

If “Binance Life” relies on cultural narrative, then Giggle ($GIGGLE) has pioneered a new paradigm of “purposeful Meme”. Its positioning is unique: a Meme coin that integrates charity and education.

Giggle cleverly ties itself to CZ's Giggle Academy educational charity project, with its smart contract mandating a 5% transaction tax, which will automatically be converted to BNB and directly donated to the academy to fund free education for children worldwide.

The powerful narrative of “Investing for Good” has quickly gained market recognition. Currently, Giggle has raised over $11 million for charity, and its market performance has also been remarkable. According to CoinGecko data, Giggle's price once soared to nearly $170 at an all-time high, with a market cap exceeding $157 million, becoming a gem in the BSC Meme ecosystem.

However, Giggle's journey has also had its ups and downs. In September 2025, the project's official Twitter account was allegedly hacked, causing short-term panic. This security incident led to a significant pullback in its price and market capitalization, which fell from a high of $35 million to below $8 million. This setback highlights the risks of Meme projects' dependence on centralized social media.

Nevertheless, Giggle has proven one thing: Meme coins can carry value beyond speculation by combining with real-world public welfare to build a more enduring community consensus.

Incorporation or Guidance?

In the face of the frenzy on the blockchain, a leading exchange chose a smart approach: not to suppress, but to guide. Its launched “Meme Rush” platform is essentially an attempt to integrate the chaotic issuance of Meme coins into the official system.

The platform is not built from scratch, but directly integrates the technology of the successful launch platform Four.meme on BSC. It has designed a structured three-stage issuance process:

  • New Phase is only open to non-custodial wallet users who have passed KYC verification. Tokens in this phase are non-transferable, and the price follows a joint curve model.
  • Final Confirmation Stage continues to maintain exclusivity for non-private key users, building momentum for public issuance.
  • Migration Phase When the market value of the token reaches the milestone of 1 million USD, liquidity is migrated to DEXs such as PancakeSwap, and the token becomes fully tradable and accessible to all users.

Behind this meticulously designed mechanism is a profound strategic consideration. First, by linking early participation opportunities to non-custodial wallets, it strongly promotes the adoption of its own Web3 wallet. Second, this is a direct response to permissionless issuance platforms like Pump.fun on Solana, aiming to keep users and liquidity within the BSC ecosystem by providing a safer and more regulated alternative.

The most crucial aspect is that “Meme Rush” provides an official entry and screening mechanism for the previously mentioned “Listing Ladder”. It seamlessly connects users' CEX identities (after KYC) with their on-chain activities, enabling the platform to observe and analyze user behavior with unprecedented accuracy, thus identifying the next potential “gold mine” that may be listed on the main site.

The launch of the platform had an immediate effect. Within the first hour of going live, 635 new tokens were created. After the launch of the first token BNBHolder, its market capitalization surged to nearly $170 million, demonstrating the platform's strong ability to attract retail capital.

Surviving is more important than getting rich.

The meme coin feast is full of temptations, but it is also fraught with traps.

On one hand, the potential for exponential growth has created an astonishing wealth myth. There are traders who turned over $5,000 into over $2 million in just 40 minutes, achieving a 410-fold return. But on the other hand, this enormous return potential is also accompanied by an equal level of extreme risk. The price of meme coins is almost entirely driven by market sentiment, and their value can collapse as quickly as it rises.

In this high-risk casino, danger is everywhere. Scams such as rug pulls, smart contract vulnerabilities, and market manipulation are common. Project teams may run away with funds after a pump, backdoors in the code may lead to theft of funds, and whales can dump at any time to harvest retail investors. Therefore, investors must establish their own survival rules instead of blindly following the trend.

A concise due diligence checklist is essential. Before investing in any Meme coin, it is necessary to examine on-chain data: check whether the token holders are highly concentrated, if liquidity is locked, and if there are any suspicious large transfer records. At the same time, it’s important to gauge the genuine enthusiasm of the community, rather than just bot spam. The quality of the narrative is also important; the project's story needs to be substantial and should be carefully evaluated.

The most important thing is to strictly adhere to risk discipline. Only invest funds that you can afford to lose; this is an absolute rule in any speculative market. Set your take-profit and stop-loss points, and do not ignore risk signals due to greed. Never go all in on a single project; while diversifying investments may reduce returns, it significantly increases your chances of survival. Remember, in this market, preserving your principal is more important than chasing high profits.

Conclusion

The frenzy triggered by a single phrase from “Binance Life” showcases the unique allure of the crypto world: a cultural meme can create hundreds of millions of dollars in market value within days, and a single tweet can change the fate of countless individuals.

But please remember, in this game full of opportunities and risks, the real winner is not the one with the best luck, but the player who can see the rules clearly, control risks, and maintain rationality.

Stay calm when others are going crazy due to FOMO. When the market is in panic, see the opportunities clearly and stick to your trading discipline; this is the only rule to survive in this grand performance where opportunities and risks coexist.

Your choice will determine whether you become the protagonist of a wealth creation myth or a backdrop in someone else's story.

This is a typical case of governance failure. Without mechanisms to restrain it, relying solely on popularity and capital games, who will be responsible when it collapses in the end? There have been many such cases in history, Terra and FTX were both ruined this way.

The clinical presentation is very typical - a bubble of 6 billion dollars that was inflated within a few days. The medical records indicate this is a standard case of liquidity hyperinflation, and it is recommended to periodically check how much is left in the wallet.

600 million dollars just for a blessing? I feel like this is just a marketing trick, worth more than any White Paper.

I am a veteran player in the Web3 community and have seen too many absurdities in the crypto world. This article is not wrong; the value of memes has indeed been seriously underestimated. A single blessing can leverage 6 billion? This is the real cultural code. However, to be honest, this kind of top-level interaction strategy requires caution from ordinary retail investors, as those who get out of positions are always the last ones to enter a position.
