Why ICM - Internet Capital Markets ?
- The trend of raising capital in web2 is regressing in recent years. It sounds unbelievable because people have been investing in startups there for a long time. But this year has seen a record decline in the U.S. fundraising market in the past 9 years.
- Everything the U.S. is doing is pushing for Crypto, very clearly. The same is true for fundraising.
=> The fundraising trend is shifting to web3.
- ICM represents a paradigm shift in fundraising, allowing anyone to tokenize an idea, application, or community on-chain, overcoming traditional barriers such as venture capital or IPOs.
- ICM leverages Solana's scalability to democratize fundraising. ICM-related projects align with the trend of tokenization of real assets (RWA) and innovation in DeFi.
Potential projects:
- Leader narrative: $LAUNCHCOIN. Representing the ICM keyword, Solana "shilled" and invested 1M$.
- Memecoin Represented: $GOONC
- $PCULE: The project is supported and followed by Polymarket. Products are in demand, generate volume and collect fees. Invested 500k$ by Solana's top 1 ventures.
- $AIXBC: A form of decentralized ventures, focusing on ICM project groups. Strong support from the Launchcoin team.
- $DUPE: Ranked in the top leaders, with a strong web2 business model. Not a priority because the cap is quite average and the web2 KD model is not too attractive as a motivation to pull tokens in web3. But it is also a safe choice if you enter the ICM system.
- - $VIRUS: A platform built for socialfi games. It is the second project announced to be supported by Launchcoin.
- $ORGO: A computer development project, a form of DePIN but focusing on computer resources developed for AI Agents. It is the first project to announce official LAUNCHCOIN support.
On the Base side, there are 2 projects: $RIZZY and $YUUKI that I shared information with in the livestream, note here for ae who missed the information.

Internet Capital Markets is the next trend. 🚀
It is a project that received 1M$ from the Solana Foundation, leading the ICM keyword.
When updating on fundraising, I can clearly see a more comprehensive context, it is clear that large organizations are 1 step ahead and are led by large institutions. Unnatural during this period:
+ The United States approves the stablecoin act, promoting the tokenization of assets on onchain.
+ Ondo Fi, Solana constantly talk about the keyword Internet Capital Markets. Developing tokenization-related products, especially raising capital through onchain. Coming soon is to promote DeFi projects to expand utility for RWA.
The global fundraising trend is shifting that few people see, from web2 => web3. Internet Capital Markets is the trend to come.
The keywork will be:
- Which launchpad will give casual users access to the U.S. funding market?
- What financial applications will promote utility for tokenization?
#Launchcoin is a launchpad platform that helps issue tokens with just one tweet on X. Accessible, easy to use for audiences outside of web2. It is the first project to receive $1M in capital through a hackathon from the Sol foundation last time.
Launchcoin does not compete with Pumpfun or Bonkfun, but targets KoL files, web2 businesses that want to enter web3.
The project is about to have updates to the launch mechanism, allowing owners to buy a part of the token right from the moment it is created to resemble pumpfun. Allowing the vesting to be opened reduces the same exhaust force as the Jupiter Studio.
And most importantly, when it comes to the keyword ICM - Internet Capital Markets, currently in Sol LAUNCHCOIN is a representative with tokens. Solana has continuously shill in the past 1 month on the keyword Internet Capital Market. And a live tweet about the project shows Launchcoin's role and position in the current Solana ecosystem.
Tomorrow I will have a livestream on youtube, please remember to listen to me share more about the ICM ecosystem.
