What a FourMeme Volume alert means
A FourMeme Volume alert means a four.meme token is trading well above its usual volume.
Ape Zone watches the launch lane because most failed tokens fail there. The FourMeme Volume channel is its raw input; the checks below are the filter.
Day to day, the first hours of a token decide most outcomes. Ape Zone follows FourMeme Volume on BNB Chain because that is where supply, liquidity and holder spread are still settling.
Start here: Check the top ten holders, the share held by the deployer and whether liquidity is locked or burned before anything else. Compare market cap with liquidity. A small pool under a large cap means a thin exit.
The scoreboard
No separate rate is published for this lane yet. Across all BNB Chain topics in the last 7 days, 19 % reached 2x inside a day and 91 % died inside a day.

Picked from the network's dated XTRACK outcome reports. A market-cap multiple is not a trading profit, and most alerted tokens did far worse.
Before you click buy
Every FourMeme Volume alert gets the same checks at Ape Zone.
| # | Check |
|---|---|
| 1 | Look again after an hour, because early data on thin tokens shifts quickly. |
| 2 | Write down the level that proves you wrong before any buy. |
| 3 | Use an amount you can lose completely without stress. |
| 4 | Confirm on the chart which pool the price comes from and how deep it is. |
| 5 | See whether other Empire channels alerted the same contract and when. |
| 6 | Copy the full contract address from the alert, never the ticker. |

The desk's screen
Ape Zone does not show every FourMeme Volume alert. It applies one fixed screen, and the live board above uses the same rule:
- market cap at least $10.0K
- liquidity at least $10.0K
- at least 250 holders
- top-10 wallets holding at most 30 %
In the 36 most recent lane alerts at build time (about 3 days), 0 passed this screen. 4 of the 36 lane alerts had liquidity below a tenth of their market cap, which makes exits expensive. The median top-10 holder share across the lane was 32 %.
Fewer than three recent alerts passed, so the lane log below shows unfiltered alerts for context.
Values measured on 2026-09-24 from the Empire feed. The screen is a filter, not a recommendation.
FAQ
What is Ape Zone?
It is one of the Empire's public desks. It watches FourMeme Volume alerts on BNB Chain, prints them live and explains how to check each one.
Where do the alerts come from?
From the Blackhat Empire alert network: on-chain data, launchpads, screeners and tracked wallets, filtered and posted to Telegram. The live board reads the same feed.
Is Ape Zone financial advice?
No. Alerts are observations from public data. Every token here can lose all of its value, and you decide what to do with the information.
What does the chart link do?
It opens a GMGN chart. The link includes our referral code, which can pay the publisher a commission.
