A crypto currency trader has recorded an extraordinary 36,067-fold return on their investment by betting on a new Solana (SOL) meme coin, Unicorn Fart Dust (UFD). The trader initially invested 0.4 SOL, equivalent to $90.28, to purchase 12,980,490.53 UFD tokens.
Over the course of 48 hours, the trader executed two significant swaps. First, exchanging 50,000 UFD for 13.27 wSOL, valued at $2,856.51. Then, swapping 30,490.53 UFD for 7.96 wSOL, worth $1,713. The remaining 12.9 million UFD tokens were valued at $3.25 million.

Crypto UFD token – A meme coin born from humor
Unicorn Fart Dust was created as a commentary on the speculative nature of cryptocurrencies. Its very existence is satirical, poking fun at the ease with which digital assets can surge in value without any underlying utility.
Despite its humorous beginnings, the token quickly became a viral sensation, ranking as the second most traded on-chain asset within 48 hours of its launch, surpassed only by major market players.
While UFD’s success is undeniably fascinating, it also raises broader questions about the appetite for speculative investments in the cryptocurrency space.
Investors were drawn to UFD purely for its entertainment value, yet its meteoric rise shows a deeper phenomenon—the willingness of market participants to chase high-risk assets for the promise of outsized rewards. By press time, UFD was trading at $0.1742 with a market capitalization of $174 million.
Moreover, investing in coins like UFD also exposes investors to other risks, such as the lack of liquidity, potential rug pulls, and death spirals that are occasionally seen in these financial bubbles that surge from time to time.
