  • Former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried has been sentenced to 25 years in prison for fraud.
  • Memecoin, like Sam Baseman Fraud, reflects trends in thematic tokens.

In a significant development, former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried was sentenced to 25 years in prison for fraud, marking a historic moment for the markets. Amid this chaos, just hours before the sentencing, a memecoin called Sam Baseman Fraud, using the ticker FTX, was launched on the Coinbase layer 2 network Base.

Additionally, in just seven hours, FTX memecoin surged more than 23,300%, reaching a peak market capitalization of $1.5 million on March 28, according to data from DexScreener. However, many memecoins have fallen quickly, typically by more than 85% within 3 hours.

Regarding the same point, @CryptoPatel Highlighted Technical Analyst;

“The misuse of billions of dollars led to the collapse of both FTX and Alameda Research, marking one of the most dramatic collapses in cryptocurrency history.”

Emergence of SBF Memecoin

Shortly after the sentencing, another SBF-themed memecoin, Som Bonkmon Fraud, appeared on Solana (SOL). It soared to a market capitalization of $20 million, an 18,000% increase over its launch value of $30,000, but has since plummeted more than 95%.

It is currently trading at around $0.0008, slightly higher than the coin’s initial listing price.

mocking the scenario, @CryptoRand famous,

“Facts for when #SBF launches in 2049:
– $BTC mining reward is 0,04882812.
– He would have missed at least six bull markets.
– The #BTC whitepaper is 40 years old.
– SBF probably ate 54,750 cucumbers in prison.
– $ETH gas fee is still $13725 per TX.”

Solana’s meme coin surges

The rise of Bankman-Fried themed memecoins reflects the trend of topical memecoins taking inspiration from cryptocurrencies and politicians like Boden and Tremp, capitalizing on the hype of the US election.

This trend was fueled by Solana’s Dog Wif Hat (WIF), which soared from $50,000 to $3.5 billion in four months.

All of this has led to the surge of Solana’s memecoins due to its low fees and high throughput. This brings Total Value Locked (TVL) to over $4.5 billion, matching Ethereum’s meme coin dominance.

Simply put, memecoins like Bankman-Fried themed tokens grow through hype rather than actual value. Therefore, as the memecoin craze continues, investors should proceed with caution and evaluate the fundamentals before jumping into these speculative assets.
