How I Made $26,000 Trading Meme Coins in 10 Hours — and $21K in a Spider-Man Costume

The Halloween Trade: $21K Mid-Shower in a Spider-Man Costume

Last week on Halloween night, I made $21,000 in a single trade — while literally getting ready to go out in my Spider-Man costume.

No exaggeration: I was mid-shower, towel on, laptop on the bathroom counter, watching a meme coin called SPSN explode in real time.

It was inspired by a South Park episode that leaked early, where the characters launched a meme coin. By the time I spotted it, it already hit a $1 million market cap and was migrating contracts. Normally, I’m one of the earliest trench buyers, but this time I got in late — about 30 minutes after launch.

Still, it rocketed to $7.5 million market cap that night. I locked in profits early, netting $21K before leaving for the Halloween party. In hindsight, it had all the elements of a perfect narrative: pop culture, timing, and memetic virality.

🤖 The AI Hype Trade: GP67

A few days later came GP67 — born from a tweet by Sam Altman teasing that the next ChatGPT model would be called “67.”

That tweet instantly became a meme. Within minutes, multiple GP67 coins appeared on Padre and Pump.fun, each battling for dominance.

I bought one early, sold fast, and walked away with a few thousand in profit. My only mistake? Hesitation. I didn’t size big enough. In meme-coin rotations, speed kills. When a narrative hits the timeline, you move — or you miss it.

🐶 PawFun and the “Every Paw Deserves to Live” Narrative

Then there was PawFun, a feel-good meme coin themed around dog rescues and charity.

It looked clean, had active dev wallets, and strong traction on Twitter. I bought early, scalped it for a $500 profit, and exited before the dev dumped.

It’s not always about the big wins. The small, consistent trades keep your bankroll alive and your instincts sharp.

⚠️ Spotting a Rug Pull Before It Happens

At one point, I nearly walked into a rug.
A project claimed to use “dual AI agents” to build decentralized apps. It had fresh Kraken funding and decent volume — but when I tested their site using a burner wallet, it threw an error.

That was my exit signal. I sold almost at the exact top, minutes before it went to zero.

Lesson: Always trade with a fake wallet first. Never trust a new website with your real funds.

🚀 The New Meta: Pump.fun, Padre, and Meme Rotation

The meme coin trenches are a battlefield.
You’re glued to the screen, watching wallet migrations, sound alerts, and liquidity injections — all while trying to catch narratives before they trend.

The strongest categories right now are:

• AI memes (like GP67)

• Pop-culture tie-ins (South Park, Halloween, Spider-Man)

• Dog-themed tokens (DOGE spin-offs, charity plays)

• Fake utility projects (AI agents, DeFi automation, etc.)

In just a few days, I stacked over $26,000 in profits across these setups.

🧠 Key Lessons from the Meme Trenches

1. Narrative Is Everything — The best coins ride cultural moments, not whitepapers.

2. Speed Beats Perfection — You don’t have to be right; you just have to be early.

3. Use Burner Wallets — Always test first. Protect your real bags.

4. Rotate Fast — When a narrative fades, exit and move to the next one.

5. Detach Emotionally — Never fall in love with a coin. Love the process instead.

🪙 Spotlight: Zone — The Official Dogecoin Treasury

This video was sponsored by Zone, the official Dogecoin Treasury listed on NASDAQ.
Zone is partnered with House of Doge (TBH) and backed by Alex Spiro, Elon Musk’s lawyer. Their goal: to make Dogecoin real money, just like MicroStrategy did for Bitcoin.

Zone’s treasury already holds over 500 million DOGE, building real-world utility around the meme that started it all.

It’s proof that memes are evolving — from internet jokes to financial ecosystems.

🧩 Final Thoughts

The meme-coin market is not luck. It’s a mix of instinct, timing, and pattern recognition.
Some days you make $200. Some days you make $26K.

But one truth never changes:

“Stay fast, stay alert, and never fall in love with a coin.”

Because the next 100x meme might drop while you’re still in the shower.
