Tokenomics

Funding Tree

A network structure where one source wallet funds multiple intermediaries, each of which funds several buying wallets, all of which buy the same token. The architecture of most coordinated launch operations. Visible by tracing the Solscan Funded By field across multiple top holders.

Tokenomics Common Upstream The wallet that funded multiple seemingly-independent buyers, revealing that they are in fact one coordinated entity. The connective tissue of a wallet cluster. Visible by tracing the Solscan funding chain one to three hops upstream from each top holder. → Tokenomics Fresh Wallet A Solana address whose first transaction occurred recently relative to a token's launch. A top-20 holder set dominated by fresh wallets is near-diagnostic for an insider operation. Three flavors: cold-fresh (created at launch), warmed-up (one or two prior transactions to fake history), and graduated (from an operator's rotation pool). → Tokenomics SOL Balance Residue The leftover SOL in a wallet after the initial token purchase. When multiple wallets were funded with identical amounts and executed identical buy sizes, they share nearly identical residuals. Scanning the SOL balance column on the Holders tab for matching clusters is a rapid forensic technique for identifying coordinated wallets. →
