Ten coins in our launch record printed a hundred thousand dollars. Here is every one of them, plus the next two for context, sorted by the highest market cap they ever reached.

|---|---|
| Prophet | $26,152,788 |
| CONSOLE | $6,012,098 |
| SUBX | $2,744,363 |
| SAFU | $2,383,935 |
| MAGA | $1,948,089 |
| FCOIN | $1,476,646 |
| FFM | $401,974 |
| CTO | $293,710 |
| bot | $179,279 |
| CLMATE | $116,909 |
| NNN | $76,353 |
| SPOOKY | $71,228 |
Read rows six and seven again. FCOIN peaked at one million four hundred seventy six thousand. FFM peaked at four hundred one thousand nine hundred seventy four.
Nothing in the record sits between them.
A hole, not a slope
Across 381 launches with a full six hour trace, the peaks do not thin out gradually as the numbers get bigger. They jump. Six coins went past a million four hundred thousand, all of them ending somewhere between one point four and twenty six million. Four coins stalled in the low hundreds of thousands. Between four hundred and two thousand and one point four million, our record contains nothing at all.
Put beside the ladder from the launch study, the shape is stark. Three percent of launches reach a hundred thousand dollars. Two percent reach five hundred thousand. Two percent reach a million. Those last two are the same six coins, because every coin in our record that cleared five hundred thousand kept going past a million.
What the two groups looked like
The difference was not the story and it was not the bots. It was the number of wallets that showed up and kept trading: sixty one unique buyers in the median coin that broke fifty thousand, against four in the median coin that never reached ten thousand. That comparison has its own post with the full table, including the two shapes the winners came in, a broad crowd of a few hundred wallets or a tiny handful of wallets buying over and over.
Once a coin is already sitting at a hundred and fifty thousand dollars, though, that buyer count is history. The question changes from who showed up to whether anyone is still paying for the supply that arrived early.
What we are not claiming
Ten coins is a small group, and our collector watches launches as they come off the feed, which means the record is dominated by tiny coins and only rarely catches a big one early enough to trace it. A gap between four hundred thousand and one point four million in a sample this size could easily be an artifact of which coins we happened to catch. We are not telling you that a coin at four hundred thousand dollars has a ceiling, and we are not telling you the next one to clear it goes to a million.
What we are doing is refusing to describe the ladder as smooth. If you see a coin at a hundred and fifty thousand dollars on a board somewhere and the presentation implies the next stop is five hundred thousand, nothing in our data supports that. Ours splits into a coin that stops and a coin that leaves, with no observed middle.
What that changes on the site
It is the reason a card on the board ranked by live buying prints the pool beside the market cap rather than the market cap alone, and why the checker puts exit cost and the share held by the ten largest wallets ahead of the grade. Those numbers describe the coin as it stands right now, after the first move. A peak is a fact about the past. A pool is a fact about whether you can leave.
Method
Sample: 381 launches recorded by our own collector, each with at least four follow up price samples across six hours. Peaks are the highest market cap observed in that window, not a theoretical high between samples, so a coin that spiked and fell between two readings would be undercounted here. Figures rounded. The gap described is a property of this sample and will be re-run as the record grows, which is the honest way to test whether it survives.
