Solana token $YUNC surges to $490k

Solana meme token yunc drew attention on Friday after posts on X said its market capitalization had climbed from about $2,200 to roughly $490,000 in a matter of hours. The token was promoted in a post by the account Sol_meme_T, which described the move as a 222.72x jump and urged traders to look for “early” entries in trending Solana meme coins. The token’s on-chain identifier appears across Solana market trackers as CNraxbUfLJLbTPV7RuwZanygNN49vz1P3reNqyx9pump. Phantom and Solscan both listed yunc on May 22, though Phantom labeled it “unverified.” ### Which token were traders talking about? Solscan identified the token as yunc, with symbol yunc, on Friday and listed its creator as “meechiedev.sol.” The same Solscan page showed the token’s first mint at 02:03:04 UTC on May 22, 2026, placing the asset among the newly launched Solana meme tokens that often circulate first through social posts before appearing on larger data dashboards. (phantom.com) Phantom listed yunc under the same Solana token address and said the token had a total and circulating supply of 1 billion. Phantom also warned that the token was unverified and said market data on the page was provided by third parties. ### Where did the $2,200 starting point come from? GeckoTerminal’s Pump.fun pool page for yunc showed that the largest holder in the pool held 882.38 million yunc tokens valued at $2,204.72 on May 22. (solscan.io) That figure aligns with the low-end market-cap number cited in the X post and suggests traders were using early pool valuation data as the baseline for the claimed surge. (phantom.com) The X post itself, cited in the source briefing for this story, said yunc moved from “$2.2k to $490k” market cap. The post did not provide a methodology in the briefing text, and the available market trackers reviewed here do not preserve that exact intraday path in the snippets returned by search. (geckoterminal.com) ### Do current market trackers show the token near that level? Phantom showed yunc with a market capitalization of $361,000 and 24-hour trading volume of $829,000 as of May 22. Those figures indicate the token remained actively traded after the social-media post, although the Phantom snapshot reviewed here was below the $490,000 level cited earlier in the day. (geckoterminal.com) Solscan also showed 753 holders on its token page at the time reviewed, while Phantom showed 977 holders, a difference that reflects how crypto data platforms can display different counts depending on timing and methodology. Neither platform, in the excerpts reviewed, independently confirmed the exact 222.72x figure. (phantom.com) ### Why did this move spread so quickly on X? The social posts tied yunc’s rise to a broader push by traders hunting fast-moving Solana meme coins on Friday. In the source briefing, the same cluster of posts also cited another token, MHMP, as an example of a rapid move after breaking resistance, showing that yunc was being circulated as part of a wider meme-coin watchlist rather than as a standalone project announcement. (phantom.com) Phantom’s listing gives a partial explanation for the attention. The wallet page showed yunc alongside other “trending tokens,” and its $829,000 daily volume was more than double the market-cap snapshot shown on the same page. On thinly traded meme tokens, that combination can amplify price swings and social-media attention. ### What can be verified, and what remains unverified? The verifiable facts are that yunc existed on Solana on May 22, that Solscan recorded its first mint early that day, and that Phantom and GeckoTerminal showed active trading and low-to-mid six-figure valuations during the session. The less certain claim is the exact path from $2,200 to $490,000 and the precise 222.72x multiple, because the available public snapshots reviewed here show point-in-time values rather than a complete minute-by-minute record. (phantom.com) As of May 22, traders looking to track the next move could still find yunc listed on Phantom, Solscan and GeckoTerminal under token address CNraxbUfLJLbTPV7RuwZanygNN49vz1P3reNqyx9pump.
