Sweep: repeats only, no new tasks.
- Launchpad roundups (airdropalert, kucoin 21 Oct): no new venue; chain fees -28% w/w after gas subsidy ended, Pons launchpad fees -38%, memecoin hype fading. PONS on Coinbase since 7 Oct. Stock-paired launchpads (Long.xyz, Flap) and letscash.fun, Memecoin.fun, Hood.fun, Openfair already known/covered.
- Rug ring (Wazz, 53 launches, $18.43M, The Block 27 Sep): already covered in items 9/22.
- Note: lower launch volume may mean fewer runners; analysts could check daily launch count trend.
- MEERKAT README still unread.
