On May 16th, 2024 at 11:33 PM, Alon Cohen โ co-founder and CTO of pump.fun โ opened X and posted two words: "Meet CK", attached to a single photo of a chubby Djungarian dwarf hamster. That hamster's name was Chiken (CK).
Within hours someone launched $CK โ The Chosen Hamster on pump.fun. The thesis was simple: the guy who built pump.fun never shills anything. When he posts a hamster, the hamster matters.
Alon's timeline is almost entirely platform updates, hiring, fee changes, ecosystem builds, and technical commentary. He literally built the machine that creates and graduates every coin on Solana's biggest launchpad.
When he does mention or post about a specific coin โ it's extremely rare and it carries weight. Every other ticker he's ever touched has already graduated to Raydium.
Out of every coin Alon has posted, mentioned, or referenced on X โ the public tally is roughly 8 wins / 326 losses. But the metric that actually matters: 0 of them are still unbonded.
Zero. Except one. $CK. Still sitting on the pure fair-launch bonding curve, exactly where the biggest multipliers happen. No insider unlocks. No team allocation. Just the curve, the hamster, and the lore.
The CK narrative was first crystallized by @LexaproTrader's thread โ the post that made the chosen hamster lore canon in CT.
On pump.fun, a coin "bonds" when it reaches the market cap that graduates it off the bonding curve onto Raydium. $CK has never reached that threshold โ meaning all upside from here is still on the original fair-launch curve.
The pump.fun ecosystem is bigger than it's ever been. The single un-bonded Alon-coin is a piece of crypto history that's still mintable, still tradable, still un-graduated. The lore is loaded. The hamster is waiting.
Be part of the only Alon post that hasn't graduated. Bond the hamster, write the final chapter, and make crypto history.
