Reading the Near Graduation lane
A Near Graduation alert means a launch is nearing the point where it leaves the launchpad curve for a regular pool.
As a rule, a curve that completes tells you demand existed. It does not tell you who holds the supply. Avrugs pairs every Near Graduation print with a look at holders and liquidity.
The first hours of a token decide most outcomes. Avrugs follows Near Graduation on Solana because that is where supply, liquidity and holder spread are still settling.
Start here: Look at the holder count trend over the first hour; a flat count with rising volume points to wash trading. Check the top ten holders, the share held by the deployer and whether liquidity is locked or burned before anything else.

The desk's screen
Every desk in the network filters differently. This is the screen Avrugs applies to the @empiresolneargrad lane:
- market cap at least $50.0K
- liquidity at least $5.0K
- at least 50 holders
- top-10 wallets holding at most 30 %
In the 29 most recent lane alerts at build time (about 1 hours), 0 passed this screen. Thin pools were common: 21 of 29 had less than 10 % of their cap in liquidity. Across the whole lane, the ten largest wallets held a median 7 % of supply.
None of the recent alerts passed at build time, so the board may show a wider view until new alerts qualify.
Values measured on 2026-09-24 from the Empire feed. The screen is a filter, not a recommendation.
What the record says

Historic examples only. Each multiple compares the reported market cap with the first alert. Many other alerts in the same period lost value.
Our method
Avrugs runs these checks on each Near Graduation alert.
- Use an amount you can lose completely without stress.
- Check the first minutes for same-block buys from linked wallets.
- Copy the full contract address from the alert, never the ticker.
- Try a small sell early; some tokens restrict selling.
- See whether other Empire channels alerted the same contract and when.
- Look again after an hour, because early data on thin tokens shifts quickly.
