A kid shocked the internet by creating a meme coin called $Quant during a live stream and unexpectedly profiting $30,000 by selling it for 128 SOL. 

Despite his success, the story took a surprising turn when the community rallied behind the coin, causing its value to soar. The 51 million $Quant he sold, initially worth $30,000, skyrocketed to a staggering $4 million in value.

The boy didn’t stop there—he created two more meme coins, $lucy and $sorry, and made another $24,000 in profits. This bold move highlighted the speculative nature of meme coins and their high volatility.

Meme coins, such as Doge, are cryptocurrencies with little real-world utility but attract traders looking for quick gains. Using Pump.fun, a Solana-based meme coin launchpad, the boy executed a classic “rug pull” by selling all his holdings shortly after hyping the coin, leaving investors with nearly worthless tokens.

A viral clip from the live stream captured the moment he cashed out, visibly thrilled as onlookers encouraged him to sell. 

However, the community turned the tables by boosting the coin’s value, teaching the young creator an unexpected lesson about the unpredictable world of crypto trading.
