Meme coins and 土狗 — an encyclopedia of terms you need to know

Looking dazed while others make money on meme tokens? Don't understand what FOMO, VP, 貔貅 is? No worries, come on, let's explore this crazy world together.

What are 土狗 and meme coins?

MEME tokens are those that appeared from nowhere, worth nothing, but suddenly became a hit on the internet. The price skyrocketed, like DOGE, SHIB, PEPE. Everyone remembers how people became rich?

Tudog ( literally “earth dog” ) is the ancestor of meme-coins, freshly issued tokens without community support. They can drop to zero, but if the community comes up with a name for them ( like Eliza, Moodeng, Kheowzoo ), they become legendary.

Key Terms to Know

Small gold vs big gold — they talk about the potential of the token. Big gold already has a million capitalization, and you didn't manage (F for you 😭).

To knock on the thighs means that you missed the golden moment. You have to regret it out loud.

DYOR (Do Your Own Research) — do your own research. Don't follow the crowd, understand for yourself before throwing in money.

貔貅 (піксю) — a token that can only be bought, but not sold. Or very difficult to sell. This is a fierce rip-off, you feel offended when buying.

RUG (rug pull) — the project kept the money and disappeared. A classic scam.

Platforms and Launches

Internal platform — tokens that are preparing for launch. Liquidity is gathered on Pump ( or similar ones in other blockchains), the risk of 貔貅 and RUG is minimal.

External platform - the successfully launched token has gone live on DEX (Raydium, Uniswap). Now it is live and trading.

Launched / Took Off — the token has entered the green candle mode, the price is happy.

Sold earlier — a bitter moment: bought when it rose a bit, sold, and then it went up 100 times without you. Classic.

Psychology of Trading

Double your capital — strategy: buy when the price has doubled from the entry point, take half of the investment out, and play for free. Now you won't lose everything.

PVP (Player vs Player) — trading among community members. Fast traders cut down the slow ones, while newcomers can't even get a chance to jump in.

FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) — you see how others are earning, you panic and buy without understanding. Often this leads to inevitable losses.

FUD (fear, uncertainty, doubt) — rumors, fake news, that media people spread to buy cheaper at the bottom.

Holding Strategies

HODL — hold long, don't sell.

Diamond hands are long-term holders who do not panic during a downturn.

Giants — TOP-10 token holders. They can sometimes move the market with their will.

Practical knowledge

LFG — “Let's Fucking Go”, a slogan to ignite FOMO. Just like “to the Moon”, both shout: rise up!

GM, GN — “Good morning” and “Good night”. CZ once said GM, a new 土狗 meme was created.

Sandwich attack ( — An MEV bot buys ahead of you ), then quickly sells after your trade. For one volume you would buy 100 tokens, but you received 90. Platforms with protection against sandwich attacks are worth considering.

Chain scanning - monitoring the blockchain, looking at transactions. Previously, this was done only by scientists, now there are tools for regular users.

Scraper (scraper) — an automatic tool that monitors Twitter for new contracts (CA) and automatically purchases them. Science, Carl!

CA (contract address) — a unique token ID. The name can be duplicated, but the address never can.
