Trenchpedia is a catalogue that compiles itself. Every rule it follows is printed here, with the numbers the service runs on today.
I.What a runner is
Only coins launched on the pump.fun curve are catalogued, including those that migrated anywhere after it. A coin becomes a runner when all of the following hold, in this order. Every refusal is stored with its reason; nothing is dropped silently.
| Step | Rule |
|---|---|
| Origin | The pump.fun bonding curve of the mint exists, and the coin appears in a pump.fun migration. Coins from other launchpads are out of scope. |
| Size | A cap of at least $1M held for 1 hour by candle closes, not a single wick. Or a peak 24h volume of $3M with a held cap of at least $250K. |
| Wash check | Trades sampled inside the holding run are tested against the rules below. Two flags or more: refused. One flag: held for review against the Jupiter organic score. |
| Exclusions | An entry later found fake is withdrawn, and the withdrawal is logged publicly. |
The cap is the candle price in USD times one billion, the fixed pump.fun supply. ATH on every card is the held figure; the raw candle high is not used.
II.The wash rules
300 trades are sampled in three blocks of 100, one at a random moment inside each third of the holding run, drawn after the run is over, so no one can know where the sample falls. Each rule raises one flag.
| Flag | Raised when |
|---|---|
| Few wallets | More than 4 trades per wallet |
| Concentrated volume | The top 5 wallets carry more than 60% of the volume |
| Dust trades | The median trade is under $2 |
| One-sided | Fewer than 0.25 or more than 4 sells per buy |
| Same wallets both sides | Over 90% of volume from wallets that both bought and sold |
| Repeated amounts | Over 20% of trades in the three most common amounts |
Fewer than 100 trades is not a verdict: the coin is checked again later. The Jupiter organic score is shown on each card as a second opinion and decides the single-flag cases.
III.What is on a card
Every number is computed by the service from candles and the chain: cap now, ATH held, minutes from creation to migration, time from creation to ATH, life after the peak (until the cap closes under 20% of the ATH), holders now and the peak daily volume. Holders are counted now, not at the peak; the card says so.
The earliest trail is the oldest dated thing the creator left: a post linked in the metadata, dated by its id, or a link without a date. It is never called the first mention. When nothing is found, the card says origin not found.
The reading, three to five lines on why the coin ran, is written by claude-haiku-4.5 from the facts above only. It picks one of twelve categories from a fixed list and never does arithmetic. Creator text is treated as data, never as instructions.
| Category | Covers |

IV.The radar, or Plate I
The meta is drawn as a sky. Each category is a constellation; its sector widens with its share of runners. A star is a runner: the nearer the centre, the more recent its peak (the rim is 28 days), and the larger the star, the higher it ran.
Two windows of 14 days are compared: the last, W0, and the one before, W1. For each category c:
where n is the number of runners and v the sum of their peak daily volumes, each capped at the 90th percentile of the window so one giant cannot own the map.
| Reading | When |
|---|---|
| Thin sample | Fewer than 4 runners across both windows. No trend is drawn. |
| Rising | ratio at least 1.5, delta at least +5 points, and at least 2 runners in W0 |
| Cooling | ratio at most 0.67, delta at most -5 points, and at least 2 runners in W1 |
| Bright | Among the two highest heats, neither rising nor cooling |
| Steady | Everything else |
About one to three clean runners appear a day, so in the first weeks most constellations read as a thin sample. That is the honest reading.
V.The Reading Room
Without holding anything you see the newest 20 entries, their cards and the radar. Any wallet holding $150 of $PEDIA, priced live, opens the full archive, search and alerts by category. The room opens at launch, once $PEDIA trades.
You sign one plain message with your wallet. It is not a transaction and moves nothing. The service reads your balance, gives the browser a session for 6 hours and checks the balance again every few minutes. Every gated answer is checked on the server, not hidden in the page.
VI.Money
Trenchpedia is paid for by the creator fee of $PEDIA alone, shared on chain through pump.fun fee sharing.
| Share | Goes to |
|---|---|
| 75% | Infrastructure: the reading model, the RPC, the server |
| 25% | The editor, paid by pump.fun directly |
There are no airdrops, no rewards and no promises. Nothing on this site is financial advice.
VII.Sources
Migrations are read from the chain itself, from the one wallet that performs every pump.fun migration, so no coin is missed. Prices and candles come from pump.fun, market snapshots from Dexscreener, organic scores and holder counts from Jupiter, everything else from a Solana RPC. Nothing is scraped from screenshots and nothing is entered by hand.
