How i made 40 SOL from 0.1 SOL in 20 days trading memecoins with 0 experience

Hey everyone, I’m here to share my story of how I turned 0.1 SOL into 40 SOL in just 20 days, with zero prior trading experience—just consistency and determination.

How It Started

I’m a 24-year-old with no background in trading, no degree, and no special knowledge—just a guy who spent most of his time playing video games, working, and sleeping. That was my routine, day in and day out.

Then, on February 8th, I started seeing YouTube Shorts about memecoins. I was blown away by how people were making insane profits trading them. That got me thinking—could I do this too?

The next day, on February 9th, I made a big decision. I uninstalled every single game from my PC, took $20 from my bank account (SOL was at $200 at the time), and deposited it into my wallet.

Now I had 0.1 SOL and a handful of memecoins… but where do I even start?

Learning the Game

For the first 3-4 days, I just observed. I watched how charts moved, what people were buying, why they were buying, and whether it was possible to actually read these patterns.

On February 11th, I took my first real trade—with my 0.1 SOL—and it turned out to be a game-changer.

The Trade That Started It All

I placed my first winning bet on “JFK” (Justice for Kanye) and made a 368.73% profit, turning my small investment into a real bankroll.

JFK Trade:

Buy: $20.54

Sell: $96.28

PnL: +$75.74

PnL %: 368.73%

That was the moment everything clicked. With nearly 0.5 SOL in my wallet, I went all in on the grind.

Since then every single day has been a green day and my portfolio is just growing for each day that passes, right now I’m at ~42 SOL and next goal is to hit 50 SOL, hopefully tomorrow.

The Journey So Far

From Day 1, I’ve been documenting my progress. Just two days ago, I broke my personal record, making 10 SOL profit in a single day.

No groups, no insider tips, no communities—just me, my research, and my trades.

I’ll be posting some screenshots to back it all up.
