What moved on Solana in the DEX Social Updates lane, what the record says about it, and how to check a contract in ten minutes.
Loading live DEX Social Updates alerts…
Screen: market cap at least $20.0K, at least 100 holders, top-10 wallets holding at most 25 %. Charts open on GMGN.
The same short routine, every time.
A DEX Social Updates alert means a project updated its links or profile on a DEX screener.
Deployer moves, relaunches and paid promotion are all public on Solana. Obsidian Gems collects them from DEX Social Updates and checks them against holders and liquidity.
Obsidian Gems watches the DEX Social Updates channel because team behaviour often explains a chart better than the chart does.
Quick test: Check who paid for the boost and whether the same wallet holds supply. Confirm new social links point to accounts with real history, not accounts created that day.
Obsidian Gems does not post alerts itself; these Telegram routes do.
| Token | Chain | First alert cap | Tracked cap | Multiple | Report |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LOOKSMAX | SOL | $30K | $2400K | 77x | 2026-08-16 |
| Frug | SOL | $29K | $551K | 19x | 2026-08-26 |
| FLORK | BSC | $70K | $5100K | 73x | 2026-09-01 |
| BLUEHOUSE | SOL | $39K | $747K | 19x | 2026-08-29 |
Historic examples only. Each multiple compares the reported market cap with the first alert. Many other alerts in the same period lost value.
Obsidian Gems does not show every DEX Social Updates alert. It applies one fixed screen, and the live board above uses the same rule:
Checked against the latest 48 alerts in the lane (about 10 hours): 12 passed. Median values for the passing alerts: cap $212.8K, liquidity $40.7K, holders 1672. 2 out of 48 alerts showed a pool smaller than a tenth of the cap — a warning sign on its own. Across the whole lane, the ten largest wallets held a median 37 % of supply.
Values measured on 2026-09-24 from the Empire feed. The screen is a filter, not a recommendation.
Over the last 7 mature days the network alerted 129 tokens in DEX Social Updates on Solana. 16 % reached 2x within 24 hours and 2 % reached 5x; 83 % died inside a day, usually after about 2.8 h. The Solana average for all topics was 24 % reaching 2x. The measured 2x rate sits below the rest of Solana with 95 % confidence in this window.

Obsidian Gems is a Blackhat Crypto Empire desk that follows the DEX Social Updates channel on Solana and shows the network's live alerts with the checks we use to read them.
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.
Open the Telegram link on this page for @empiresolsocials. Alerts arrive there first.
No token earns trust by appearing in an alert. Run the checks on this page on every contract, every time.
