MakeNowMeme allows users to create meme tokens through a post on X. Users simply need to publish a post in a specific format.
Once a sufficient number of traders purchase the new asset, its liquidity is automatically listed on the decentralized exchange Raydium.
At the time of writing, IQ is trading at approximately $0.0012, having increased by 1350% in the past 24 hours. Its market capitalization stands at $1.19 million, according to GeckoTerminal.
At its peak, the coin reached $0.013 but quickly corrected. Its daily trading volume exceeded $34 million.
MakeNowMeme is similar to the platform pump.fun. On July 1, the latter’s daily revenue reached $1.99 million, surpassing Ethereum in this metric.
Earlier, the cryptocurrency data service DEX Screener also launched a competing meme coin creation platform on Solana called Moonshot.
