Trader Turns $72,000 into $30 Million in Memecoin Craze
A trader recently garnered attention in the crypto community for turning a $72,000 investment into over $30 million in just three days amid the latest memecoin frenzy.
The blockchain tracking firm Lookonchain first reported the astonishing feat, observing a trader operating under the Solana address “sundayfunday.sol” who amassed significant profits trading Book of Meme (BOME), a newly launched memecoin on the Solana network.
According to Lookonchain’s findings, the trader realized profits of $3.66 million after selling a portion of their BOME holdings, still retaining BOME tokens worth over $26 million.
In their report, Lookonchain highlighted the trader’s rapid success, stating, “sundayfunday.sol turned $72,000 into $30.2 million in just 3 days on BOME!”
During this period, BOME was listed on major exchanges such as Binance and Kucoin, further fueling the trading frenzy.

Additionally, Lookonchain identified another address that achieved a staggering 340x return on their $19,000 investment, selling their BOME holdings for $6.58 million.
While these traders capitalized on the soaring value of BOME, not all investors were as fortunate. Lookonchain noted an instance where an address sold their BOME coins prematurely for $131,000, missing out on a potential $3.5 million profit had they waited just 48 more hours.
The chart provided by Lookonchain illustrates the missed opportunity, emphasizing the importance of timing in the volatile cryptocurrency market.
