I've been looking into $TOAD, and honestly, the story behind this coin is probably more interesting than the chart itself.

For anyone who hasn't heard about it yet, El Toad Pepe is a Solana memecoin based on a character called El Sapo Pepe, a green toad that appeared on Argentine children's television back in 1988.
That's where the whole "first Pepe" narrative comes from.
The character existed 17 years before Matt Furie's Pepe, and the story behind it has been around for decades. $TOAD basically took that old character and brought it into the Solana memecoin world.
But the interesting part came after the launch.
The original deployer eventually stepped away from the project. There was also some drama around the initial CTO/community team, with some of the people involved at the beginning being removed.
So instead of pretending everything went perfectly, the community basically had to start over.
New people.
New structure.
New direction.
And that's where Mike Dudas became a very interesting part of the story.
For context, Dudas isn't just some random crypto KOL. He's the founder of 6th Man Ventures and an early investor in Pump.fun. After $TOAD launched, the deployer sent him a large allocation of the token, and he publicly became involved with the project.
According to the project's own account, the deployer sent him 18% of the total supply as a gift. Dudas then publicly said he wasn't planning to sell and began distributing $TOAD to members of the community.
That obviously brought a lot of attention to the coin.
But here's the part I find more interesting:
$TOAD isn't being presented as a perfect project with a perfect launch anymore.
The first chapter was messy.
The deployer left.
The initial team changed.
There was drama.
And now the community is trying to rebuild it from the ground up.
That's actually where the story starts getting interesting to me.
Because now the question isn't really "did the original launch go perfectly?"
It didn't.
The question is:
What can this community actually build from here?
The character already has decades of history.
It has the Solana narrative.
It has Mike Dudas involved.
And now there's a community trying to rebuild the project after a pretty chaotic beginning.
Whether $TOAD becomes something much bigger or simply remains another Solana memecoin is obviously impossible to know.
But if you're looking at memecoins based on story + culture + community, I think $TOAD is at least worth knowing about.

Not financial advice. Memecoins are extremely volatile. DYOR.

正直なところ、ほとんどのソラナのメムコインは1週間以内に死んでしまう。チームは音信不通になり、チャットは静まり返り、チャートはチャートがすることをする。
$WASABIは逆のことをしていて、人々はそれに気づき始めている。
チームは消えていない
それは低いハードルに聞こえるが、他の業界ではそうかもしれない。メムコインの世界では、基本的にフレックスだ。$WASABIのチームは毎日周りにいて、質問に答え、アップデートを出し、実際に構築している。3日間の沈黙はなし。「すぐにお返事します™」ということもなし。ただ一貫した存在感。退屈？かもしれない。しかし、退屈こそがキーを握る人々に求めるものだ。
