Republic of Apes
Summary. Republic of Apes follows Price Surges on BNB Chain: every alert live, the numbers behind them, and the checks that come before any trade.
1. Fresh from @empirebscprices
Loading live Price Surges alerts…
Screen: market cap at least $20.0K, liquidity at least $5.0K, at least 100 holders, top-10 wallets holding at most 40 %. Charts open on GMGN.
2. What this desk watches
A Price Surges alert means a token's price jumped against its recent range.
Put simply, a fast chart can come from real demand or from a few wallets trading with themselves. Republic of Apes uses Price Surges to find the move and the checks below to explain it.
Republic of Apes tracks Price Surges because moves show up there first. The desk then compares volume with liquidity, holder count and wallet spread before it treats a move as real.
Quick test: Divide 24-hour volume by liquidity. A very high ratio can mean churn between a few wallets. Check whether the move started before or after the first public call.

6. Dated examples from the network
| Token | Chain | First alert cap | Tracked cap | Multiple | Report |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| UPONLY | BSC | $16K | $3100K | 199x | 2026-09-10 |
| BABYPONS | BSC | $184K | $3500K | 19x | 2026-09-07 |
| SpaceXcoin | BSC | $34K | $635K | 18x | 2026-08-17 |
| PONS | BSC | $20K | $598K | 30x | 2026-09-10 |
Selected dated examples from XTRACK reports: multiple = tracked market cap at the report date divided by the market cap at first alert. These are not typical results and not realised profits.
7. Terms used here
- Dev wallet
- The creator address and the supply it still controls.
- Graduation
- The moment a launchpad token completes its curve and liquidity moves to a regular pool.
- Multiple
- How many times the market cap grew from the first alert, e.g. 3x.
- Fresh wallet
- A wallet with little or no history before the buy.
8. Our method
None of these needs a wallet connection.
- Check holder concentration after excluding pool and burn wallets.
- Work from the contract address; tickers repeat across chains and copies.
- Re-check the token an hour later; many setups change fast.
- Try a small sell early; some tokens restrict selling.
- Confirm the token cannot be minted again or frozen in your wallet.
- Confirm on the chart which pool the price comes from and how deep it is.

10. What passes here
The rule behind this page. Republic of Apes keeps an alert only if it passes all of these:
- market cap at least $20.0K
- liquidity at least $5.0K
- at least 100 holders
- top-10 wallets holding at most 40 %
Checked against the latest 33 alerts in the lane (about 2 hours): 22 passed. The passing group sat at a median $105.2K cap with $32.7K in the pool and roughly 922 holders. None of the 33 lane alerts had liquidity below a tenth of the market cap. Across the whole lane, the ten largest wallets held a median 24 % of supply.

12. FAQ
What is Republic of Apes?
Republic of Apes is a Blackhat Crypto Empire desk that follows the Price Surges channel on BNB Chain and shows the network's live alerts with the checks we use to read them.
What does 'dead' mean on the scoreboard?
A token counts as dead when its market cap falls 80 % or more from the first alert, drops under $5K, or its pool loses its liquidity.
What does the chart link do?
It opens the token on GMGN. Chart links carry the publisher's referral code, so the network may earn a commission if you trade there.
Is Republic of Apes financial advice?
No. Alerts are observations from public data. Every token here can lose all of its value, and you decide what to do with the information.
