Is Shogun a domestic project? Answer me, hmm? 🔹First, the answer: No! It is purely American.
Today I will explain why I am optimistic about it. I believe you will have your own understanding after reading this article.
🌈First impression of Shogun
1⃣ Hat Dog WIF
In February 2024, the meme god board on SOL 'Hat Dog WIF' surged from 0 to a market value of $4.6 billion. The call king Ansem @blknoiz06 became famous overnight. This legendary trader is undoubtedly the brightest star of this round.
A KOL of his level would not support a low-quality project. I researched his investment portfolio last year, and this auxiliary information helped me seize the airdrop opportunity.
I only invested in 6 projects, 4 of which listed on Binance, and the remaining two are Shogun and Monad. What do you think?
2⃣ On-chain performance
Last year, Hippo moodeng was undoubtedly the hottest meme in the zoo. A project founder made nearly 8 figures in USD on this golden dog. This brother was very excited, saying he felt more motivated than ever.
Then changed the wallet domain to Shogunfucks.sol, do you understand who he is now?
⭐These two things made me recognize Shogun in 2024.
🌈Project background
@gundotfun was established in the US in 2023 to develop trading tools for problem-solving. The team loves Eastern samurai culture, hence the name Shogun.
The initial product of Shogun was a Telegram Bot used for trading/tracking meme tokens, which was very popular among on-chain traders. After gradual evolution and iteration, it has now launched a web version and is developing a chain abstraction model, allowing seamless trading of various tokens across different chains with one wallet.
🔹Remember, the Shogun team is not creating products for entrepreneurship; they discovered a need and are solving problems, creating with passion.
🚀Financing situation
In February 2024, the first round of investment for life, which was solely invested by Binance with no other participants.
In May 2024, seed round financing of $6.9 million, led jointly by Polychain and dao5, with a star-studded lineup of venture capitalists.
The angel investors include: echo founder, Movement founder, Axelar founder, LayerZero founder, XAI founder, opinion leader Ansem, Ledger Capital founder, Berachain developer relations director, etc.
🔹A gathering of talents, a convergence of excellence.
🚴Founding team
Co-founder, Rahul Patel, @Topj33t, former analyst at Hartmann Capital.
Co-founder, Brandon Comer, only known as an old OG in the crypto circle, very mysterious.

Traders, completing tasks, building, the puzzle is coming together, and the samurai are gathering. Please let the little bear explain it to you in detail.
1⃣ Galaxy task
https://app.galxe.com/quest/shogun/GCXPCt1jcH?referral_code=GRFr2JbqJymuFTYhJtLFcKar0BBVHnfY_s9uJUeFtXYglz1
Launched for the first time in April, finally providing a perspective for friends who are not good at trading (like me) to participate. This is the samurai's opening task, and there will be more scrolls to unfold later, so be sure to get these 20 points first.
2⃣ Trading points
The official announcement stated that trading will count towards IQ points, but as of today, the official points have not yet started. I am not sure if it will be retrospective, so please keep an eye on this.
The official documentation is as follows: https://x.com/gundotfun/status/1907449126629077130
3⃣ Community levels
In the official Discord, community members are classified into 4 major levels based on their contributions: Intern, Broker, Senior Broker, and Partner.
Initially, all participants are at the Pleb (farmer) level, and need to improve themselves by participating in activities and making contributions.
🍀The official has given clear rewards, expecting to issue official NFTs in June. Different levels of community members have clear whitelist qualifications, as shown in the image above.
The official Discord is as follows: https://discord.gg/4NPgvPm3Dd
✅Summary
Why do I have faith in Shogun? This is my understanding, and I welcome everyone to critique and correct me.
🔹Short-term, whitelist NFT minting
🔹Long-term, potential airdrop opportunities
🔸In the long term, the founding team of this project is so good at trading memes. Every time they open a space, they invite big names from the trading world. Their industry status and trading performance are top-notch. If you just want someone to give you an Alpha code to make money, you are wasting your time.
In the crypto circle, what we need to do is to always learn from excellent people. In the Shogun community, there are top traders with verifiable records. If you come here to build and integrate into the community, you will never regret it, believe me.
Shout out Ohio, let's build together.
