Contract: 5iWSgThgfajnAsUXeYjnZE2966tdW9kitmHyUuy9pump
Overview
Martin Fartin ($FARTIN) is a Solana token launched on pump.fun on 2 September 2026 by the account Quant-Twins (@LaunchX2_), built around a caricature of the pharmaceutical executive and market commentator Martin Shkreli. The token reached an all-time high market capitalisation of approximately $83.8K.
Origin
The launch was framed explicitly as a return of favour. In the announcement post, Quant-Twins stated that Martin Shkreli had bought their previous token and helped carry it to a market capitalisation of approximately $130K, and that it was therefore "only fair we return the favor and turn him into a meme coin." The post published the contract address alongside the name "$FARTIN — Martin Fartin."
Subject Participation
Rather than objecting to the parody, Shkreli amplified it directly from his own account. He posted the contract address, shared the pump.fun listing page with the comment "helping out these kids" while the token was still valued at roughly $2.79K, and repeated the address in a follow-up reply. The three posts collectively recorded over twenty thousand impressions within approximately twenty minutes.
Community Activity
The token's pump.fun page carried a live stream from the launch team, during which participants solicited further buying from Shkreli directly, with chat messages including "DADA MARTIN PLZ BUY." The combination of a recognisable public subject, an on-record endorsement and continuous streaming sustained attention through the initial trading window.
Market Activity
Trading was flat near the $10K–$15K range for the opening period, with several early developer and sniper sales recorded on the chart. Following Shkreli's posts the token advanced almost vertically to an all-time high of approximately $83.8K before retracing sharply to the $50K area, where liquidity stood at approximately $19.1K.
