Just a week after its launch on DAOs.fun, ICM.RUN is already making waves in the Solana ecosystem. Founded by Mercy (aka 'ICM Guy'), this project positions itself as the "Internet Capital Markets on Solana," acting as an incubator for emerging blockchain ventures. If you're new to this, think of it as a community-driven hub where founders can apply for support, get reviewed by a DAO and mentors, and potentially receive funding and guidance to kickstart their ideas. It's all about fostering innovation in the meme token and broader crypto world.

The excitement kicked off with a thread from @7VoMercy sharing the project's early triumphs. Here's a breakdown of what's been happening.

初期サポーターへの大規模エアドロップ

One of the highlights was a whopping $1,230,000+ airdrop in $ICM and $SPLAT tokens. Breaking it down:

• 4% of the $ICM supply went to NFT holders— that's four times the originally promised 1%.
• Another 4% was allocated from mentor @pasternak to holders of $Launchcoin via @believeapp.
• Mentor @0xSoju's 4% share was distributed to the @met_lparmy community.
• Plus, $230,000 worth of $SPLAT from @askplat landed in the laps of ICM.RUN NFT holders.

These airdrops are a classic move in the meme token space to reward early adopters and build loyalty, and it's clear ICM.RUN is going all-in on community incentives.

わずか7日での印象的な指標

The numbers speak for themselves and show how quickly things can heat up in crypto:

• Over 120 applications have poured into the incubator, signaling strong interest from builders looking to leverage ICM.RUN's resources.
• The free-mint NFT collection hit an all-time high floor price of 2 SOL, which is no small feat for a new project.
• The overall project reached a peak market capitalization of $11 million, putting $ICM firmly on the map as a rising meme token on Solana.

For context, market cap (or Mcap) is basically the total value of all circulating tokens multiplied by the current price— a key indicator of a project's hype and potential.

勢いと認知の拡大

Beyond the stats, ICM.RUN has garnered some high-profile nods. The official @Solana account gave them a retweet and follow, along with community member @ICMJAY. That's like getting a thumbs-up from the big leagues in the Solana world.

Additionally, @seedclubhq invited Mercy to chat on their podcast @11AMdotclub, where they'll dive deeper into the incubator's vision. These endorsements can supercharge visibility and attract more talent to the ecosystem.

エコシステムのトレジャリー拡大

Under the guidance of newly appointed Head of Ecosystem @AndrewSeb555, ICM.RUN has grown its treasury to $66,000 by onboarding several promising projects. Here's a quick look at the contributions:

• @polycule_bot: $20,951
• @asksplat: $17,083
• @InboxApp_: $1,310
• @believe_gpt: $320
• @StarseedTeam: $335
• @getFoundry: $783
• @network_cities_: $1,085
• @AlgonFX_: $719

This treasury growth isn't just about stacking funds; it's about creating a sustainable ecosystem where projects can thrive together on Solana.

As Mercy wrapped up the thread, "It’s only been seven days, but the energy and momentum from everyone has been incredible. This is just the start—excited to keep building together." If you're a blockchain practitioner or meme token enthusiast, ICM.RUN is one to watch.
