By The search vine gmgn is about Vine coin (VINE) on GMGN's terminal: the live chart, how to trade it, and how to avoid the dozens of other tokens that borrowed the Vine name. VINE is a Solana memecoin launched through Pump.fun, so on GMGN you use the Solana chain, pay 1% per side plus a priority fee, and confirm the contract on the security panel first.
VINE is a headline-driven token. It was created as a wager on Elon Musk bringing back the six-second video app, and its biggest candles have all followed his posts.
What is Vine coin?
Vine coin (ticker VINE) was launched on Solana through Pump.fun in January 2025 by Rus Yusupov, one of the co-founders of Vine, the looping-video app Twitter acquired in 2012 and shut down in 2017. The launch came days after Elon Musk posted that he was "looking into" reviving Vine, and Yusupov confirmed the token was his with a handwritten note and selfie on X on 23 January 2025.
The token has a fixed supply of 1 billion. Reporting at the time put the market cap above $200 million within hours, with more than $300 million in first-day volume, a peak near $498 million, then an 89% drawdown. Yusupov said the developer allocation would stay locked until 20 April 2025 and that proceeds from it were intended for X. The token rallied again in July 2025 on fresh Musk comments about Vine. VINE has no product; it is a bet on a revival announcement.
Which chain and where it trades
VINE is a Solana SPL token that graduated from Pump.fun to a Raydium pool. Tokens called Vine, Vine Coin or VineCoin exist on BSC, Base and Ethereum and are unrelated. On GMGN, switch to Solana (gmgn.ai/?chain=sol) before searching.
This page prints no contract addresses. Open the token on GMGN, expand the security panel and compare the contract with the one Rus Yusupov posted on his official X account. The GMGN phishing check guide explains how to spot swapped characters in lookalike addresses.
How to trade VINE on GMGN
- Log in at gmgn.ai using Telegram, Google, email or Phantom; the GMGN login guide covers the differences.
- Deposit SOL and keep 0.05 SOL back for gas and rent.
- Set the chain to Solana, search VINE, and pick the token created in January 2025 with the deepest liquidity, not a fresh clone.
- Set the priority fee (0.002–0.005 SOL for manual trades, per GMGN's recommendation) and slippage (Auto), then buy. The how to use GMGN guide covers the panel.
- Because VINE gaps on news, set a take-profit and stop-loss immediately using the GMGN limit orders and stop-loss guide; auto-created TP/SL expires after 24 hours, so renew it.
What to check before buying
- Mint authority disabled and freeze authority disabled: both should be true for a Pump.fun graduate.
- LP burned %: Pump.fun migrations burn liquidity; confirm it.
- Top-10 holder % and the dev wallet: the founder's allocation was locked until April 2025; check whether it has since moved.
- Dev sold: directly relevant here because a named founder holds a known allocation.
- Snipers / bundlers / insiders %: high on clones; on the original, a record of the launch.
- Phishing flag: walk away from any hit.
Add the founder's wallet and the top holders to the GMGN wallet tracker for alerts.
Fees on GMGN for VINE
| Cost item | Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| GMGN platform fee | 1% per buy, 1% per sell | Flat, per docs.gmgn.ai |
| Priority fee | 0.0001–2 SOL, user-set | 0.002–0.005 SOL recommended for manual trades |
| Tip | 0.0001–2 SOL, optional | Private-node routing |
| Anti-MEV | Min 0.002 SOL priority + 0.0001 SOL tip | Three modes |
VINE has migrated off the bonding curve, so the Pump.fun 1% no longer applies to spot trades. The GMGN fees guide has the small-ticket math; a 0.1 SOL trade at 0.002 SOL priority is 2% on-chain before the platform fee.
Risk notes
VINE's history is a 273,000% day, an 89% drawdown, and repeated news spikes. If Musk announces a Vine revival, the token has no claim on it; if he does not, the premise evaporates. A named founder reduces anonymity risk but not volatility. Imposters are constant. This is an independent guide; GMGN AI App Guide is not affiliated with GMGN, and nothing here is investment advice.
