A Solana-based memecoin trader turned a modest $160 investment into millions by purchasing tokens linked to the viral "Just a Chill Guy" meme. On November 15, the trader bought 9.6 million CHILL GUY tokens for 0.50 Solana (SOL) and later added 2.8 million more tokens. The memecoin's value skyrocketed, hitting a $643 million market cap by November 27. Despite selling some tokens early, the trader still holds 9.62 million tokens, now worth about $5.6 million. Meanwhile, the meme's creator, PhillipBankss, plans legal action against the unauthorized use of his artwork, although enforcement may prove difficult.
