This 25-year-old just bypassed every VC in Silicon Valley.
- $140M in trading volume within 48 hours
- 4,000 tokens launched daily
- $300M peak market cap
One tweet could launch a token and raise millions instantly.
Here’s how Ben Pasternak turned X into a fundraising machine:
Quick background:
Ben isn't your typical crypto founder.
Dropped out at 15. Built viral apps (Monkey hit 20M users). Co-founded a $250M food company.
But in 2025, he saw the real opportunity:
Killing traditional VC through social consensus.
The platform evolution:
Originally launched with "tweet to deploy" - post with @launchacoin and auto-deploy tokens.
But by May 2025, Ben pivoted to API/SDK-based launches for better quality control.
Devs use Believe's API to create tokens with real utility & community backing.
How it actually works (the alpha):
Built on Solana using Meteora DBC for instant deployment.
Revenue split: 2% total fees
- 1% to token creators
- 0.1% to early promoters ("Scouts")
- 0.9% to Believe platform
Aligned incentives across the entire ecosystem.
And the psychology is genius.
Traditional VC: "Convince wealthy gatekeepers you're smart"
: "Prove to the community you can build"
Result? The best community builders get funded, not just the best networkers.
Social proof > business plans in 2025
Initial dominance faded as market cooled.
Current 24h volumes: ~$40M (down from peak)
But the infrastructure play remains:
- leads in raw token launches
- Believe focuses on quality projects with real utility
- API v2 now live, enabling token "flywheels”
What makes this different from other launchpads?
Most platforms: Deploy token → Hope for community
Believe: Build community → Auto-deploy token
The social validation happens BEFORE the token exists.
This filters out 90% of the garbage and amplifies real projects.
What's coming next:
- Believe API v2 just launched (lets creators build token utilities)
- SDK dropping Q3 2025 (third-party app integration)
- Vision: Every social platform becomes a fundraising launchpad
The infrastructure for Web3 fundraising is being built right now.
If you're not watching , you're missing the biggest shift in startup funding since... ever.
$LAUNCHCOIN isn't just a token - it's a bet on social consensus replacing traditional gatekeepers.
The future of fundraising runs on tweets, not pitch decks.
Most people are forever lost in the memecoin trenches.
