$USELESS Meme Coin Dominates Solana with Record Inflows and Whale Activity

$USELESS Meme Coin Dominates Solana with Record Inflows and Whale Activity

In the wild world of meme coins, where hype often trumps real-world use, $USELESS is flipping the script by embracing its name and still pulling in serious cash. This Solana-based token, launched back in May 2025 as a satirical jab at utility-obsessed cryptos, is all about futility—but ironically, it's becoming a standout in the meme scene.

A recent tweet from data degen Chyan (@Chyan on X) spotlighted some eye-popping stats on $USELESS, dubbing it the "meme currency of futility." Drawing from Nansen AI data, the post shows $USELESS topping all Solana meme coins in 24-hour netflows. For the uninitiated, netflows track the money moving in and out of a token's ecosystem—positive means more cash pouring in than leaking out.

Here's the breakdown from the tweet:

  • Netflows: A whopping +$440.5K, even as the price dipped 4.7%. That's beating out rivals like $FARTCOIN, which only saw +$237.9K.
  • Trading Volume: $33.6M, way above the sector average of around $500K. Talk about standing out in a crowded field!
  • Whale Activity: +$378K in accumulation from 38 active whales—those are the big players with deep pockets who can sway markets.
  • Fresh Wallets: +$3.2M from new retail investors, signaling a stampede of everyday folks jumping in.
  • Mega Trade: One standout buy of $1.7M from the SWIFTIES deployer wallet.

Despite market swings and "bags leaking" (crypto slang for losing value in your holdings), $USELESS is positioning itself as Solana's go-to "store of value" in the meme space. It's a tongue-in-cheek nod to how these tokens can defy logic and keep thriving on community vibes alone.

The quoted image in the tweet? It's a hilarious parody of a US dollar bill, recolored in yellow with a big "U" coin smack in the middle, spelling out "U S DOLLAR"—a clever play on "USELESS." It perfectly captures the token's self-deprecating humor.

Looking broader, $USELESS isn't just a flash in the pan. As of late August 2025, it's trading around $0.20-$0.22 with a fully diluted valuation (FDV) of about $208M and liquidity pooled at $4.4M on Raydium, Solana's popular DEX (check live charts on DEX Screener). It's even been hailed as a leader in a mini memecoin resurgence on Solana, ahead of platforms like pump.fun.

What makes $USELESS tick? It's brutally honest branding resonates in crypto's self-aware culture. No promises of moonshots or tech breakthroughs—just pure, unadulterated meme energy. Tied loosely to the Bonk ecosystem (another Solana fave), it's drawing in degens (short for degenerates, the risk-loving traders) who love the irony.

If you're eyeing Solana meme coins, keep tabs on $USELESS. Tools like Nansen AI can help track these flows, as Chyan suggests. Whether it's whales scooping up tokens or retail piling in, this "useless" coin is proving anything but in the meme token arena.
