How Infrastructure Drives Meme Coin Profits

[cryptobro]

The Galaxy report outlines how meme coin profits flow upward to infrastructure providers:

Launchpads like Pump.fun generate fees for token creation and trading, with just 12 tokens accounting for 56% of market cap.

DEXs and AMMs such as Jupiter, Raydium, and PumpSwap handle high-volume trades and extract value through transaction fees.

Trading bots like Axiom and BONKbot facilitate sniping and rapid execution, generating millions in revenue for small teams.

KOLs and insiders amplify hype via social media, driving speculative cycles that benefit themselves more than retail traders.

Retail traders face extreme volatility, with median holding times for Solana meme coins around 100 seconds, often caught in PvP trading games.
