Binance's Coin Initiator: Market Cap Reached a Peak of $500 Million, But I Only Made $4,000

The anonymous creator of the "Binance Life" MEME coin, which achieved a peak market cap of $500 million, personally earned only about $4,000 from the project. After deploying the token in October 2025, he sold his holdings just before its value skyrocketed, causing him to miss out on potential millions.

  • The Missed Fortune: He sold all his tokens within 20 seconds of launch, making a quick $4,000 profit, only to watch the token become a phenomenal success hours later.
  • Subsequent Frenzy: Driven by regret, he broke his own rules and attempted to buy back into "Binance Life." He then entered a period of intense activity, creating 359 new tokens—many with similar Chinese-themed names—in an attempt to replicate his initial, accidental success.
  • The Outcome: Despite his efforts, none of the subsequent tokens achieved significant success, as he consistently cashed out early. After a 20-day hiatus, he returned to launch new tokens, leaving his future success an open question.
Summary

In early October 2025, a dark horse suddenly emerged on the BSC chain – the "Binance Life" MEME coin was born.

With a peak market capitalization reaching $500 million and daily trading volume soaring to $410 million, some people made millions in just a few days, while others reaped tenfold or even hundredfold returns— but who could have imagined that the creator of Binance's success (

(0x8463902E1fE88F63b79c11014dc221eb37fa6533), Creator/Dev, which minted a $500 million market capitalization MEME and ignited the Chinese MEME coin market, only picked up "a bottle of mineral water on the windowsill of a seaside villa"...

What did he experience after missing out? What crazy things did he do? And how did he get through those tumultuous, sleepless, and tumultuous 20 days?

Starting on October 2nd, he created 50 meme tokens, only 4 of which were in Chinese. All of them were based on trending topics and narratives, and all of them disappeared without a trace. He also followed the "transfer pool" concept - quickly deploying tokens and buying them, and once retail investors followed suit and bought them, he immediately sold them to reap the profits.

Memorable moment: Selling off 500 million yuan worth of stock in 20 seconds – the owner's "moment of slapping his thigh in frustration".

October 4th was a day that reshaped the landscape of the crypto world—the trader pressed the "Binance Life" deployment button. After the market opened, he quickly bought some tokens, intending to "make a quick buck and run," clearing out all his tokens in two separate transactions within 20 seconds.

The income was approximately $4,000.

Compared to the previous tokens that didn't cause any waves, this move must have seemed like a "perfect ending" to the trader at the time. But fate played a cruel joke: just a few hours after he sold, Binance Life suddenly "took off from the spot" and rose all the way to become a phenomenal token.

Unwilling to give up, the operator broke his own bottom line as a Ponzi scheme operator: he bought Binance Life twice, repeatedly buying and selling several times. Before this, he had never "bought back" any of his tokens. Behind these repeated operations, the struggles, resentment, and regrets are palpable.

Madness: Sending 359 MEME coins in a row, driven by an obsession to "do it again".

The explosive popularity of Binance Life didn't make the creator a fortune, but it ignited his ambition, setting him into a frenzy: creating 359 tokens in a row, averaging 51 per day—a truly terrifying feat! Even more intriguing is that among these 359 tokens, there are 292 Chinese meme tokens with names similar to "Binance Alipay," "Binance Avenue," "Binance Live," and "Binance Rocket."

The trader is frantically "replicating" Binance's life path, desperately wanting fate to give him another chance so he can seize the next myth of a $500 million market capitalization.

Unfortunately, fate played a cruel trick. Although a few tokens subsequently saw slight increases, the market maker seemed unable to change his "operation ingrained in his DNA"—adhering to his original intention of "making a quick profit" and never reaping substantial gains.

Epilogue: After 20 days of silence, is his return a cycle or a new beginning?

On October 11, the Ponzi scheme came to an abrupt end. Just when everyone thought he had made enough money and was about to retire, he quietly reappeared on October 29, and new tokens began to appear in batches on the BSC chain.

Perhaps this 20-day silence is a time to reflect on the "missed opportunities" in Binance's history? Or is it a time to refine new strategies? Can the regrets of Binance's past be made up for by a new token?

This puzzle about obsession and opportunity is left to the market and the public to solve.
