Ansem Makes Memes Great Again?

Market Cap Surges to $440M: How did $ANSEM Go Viral So Fast?

• June 28: Dissatisfied with Pump.fun’s refusal to conduct an airdrop, prominent KOL Ansem (nicknamed “The Black Bull”) used his own funds to distribute “stimulus funds” to on-chain players, jokingly demanding they cooperate by making bullish calls. As a token tied to his personal brand, and with exchanges like WEEX successively listing and supporting it, $ANSEM’s market cap surpassed $32M.
• June 29: The creator transferred 65% of the tokens to Ansem’s public wallet, forcibly locking in the token distribution structure. Fueled by viral stories of overnight riches, $ANSEM’s market cap surged past $100M in less than a day.
• June 30: As $ANSEM skyrocketed, the community voiced criticism that the celebrity’s token launch was a “scam” to fleece investors. Ansem personally stepped in to respond, using DOGE and BONK as examples to articulate a “win-win” philosophy, thereby establishing a narrative centered on transparent distribution and hands-on management.
• July 1: The surge in $ANSEM drove the issuance of new tokens on the Sol chain to an 80-day high, while the number of tokens “graduating” also surged significantly; capital even began to spill over into speculation on new tokens such as $TJR.
• July 4: Ansem launched a $ANSEM airdrop page on its newly launched BullpenFi platform, implementing “smart distribution” through a scoring system that tied X (Twitter) activity to token holdings. Community sentiment exploded; within 12 hours, the token’s market cap doubled to surpass $350M, and the number of holding addresses quickly exceeded 10K.
• July 6 to present: With the completion of a new airdrop worth approximately $7M, coupled with Ansem’s announcement of plans to withdraw creator fees and inject them into liquidity pools, as well as launch marketing campaigns on TikTok and Instagram, $ANSEM has continued to surge, reaching a peak market capitalization of nearly $4.5M, with its circulating market cap surpassing that of $TRUMP.

Narrative Spillover and Capital Concentration

• Kintara ($KINS): Solana’s flagship blockchain game, featuring a browser-based MMORPG experience. After being mentioned multiple times by Ansem, its player base and daily active users have grown steadily, and the community consensus remains strong.
• The White Bull ($LEVI): Its name directly counters ANSEM’s “The Black Bull” narrative. Positioning itself as the “White Bull” in response to the “Black Bull,” it similarly promises to lock up liquidity and use all creator fees for buybacks.
• manlet ($MANLET): This token cleverly borrows the subcultural slang term “manlet” from forums like 4chan, positioning itself as the “small but ambitious” group of supporters within the Black Bull community. Its slogan is “heart of a black bull, size of a manlet.”
• The Black Table ($MENSA): Derived from the initials “blk” of Ansem’s Twitter handle “blknoiz06,” this token was created to pay homage to Ansem and airdrop the token to him.
• The Final Form Bull ($CZ): Derived from the popular crypto meme “You haven’t seen my final form yet,” which gained widespread traction especially after CZ faced legal troubles. With the slogan “Final Form Activated” and featuring the bull image popularized by Ansem, this token aims to ignite a celebrity token craze on the BNB Chain.
