Key Takeaways
Metaplex dominates Solana’s token issuance infrastructure, earning fees from every mint of memecoins and other tokens—this revenue directly fuels aggressive MPLX buybacks.
- Current MPLX valuation appears deeply discounted, trading at 4× annual revenue / 8× net profit, with a circulating market cap of ~$80M.
- Two major catalysts could reignite revenue growth: the launch of the Solana Seeker phone, incentivizing retail users to create new tokens, and intensifying competition among memecoin launchpads (“Launchpad Wars”).
- Bear, base, and bull scenarios suggest strong asymmetry, with potential MPLX fair value ranging from $0.08 (bear) to $0.70 (bull) per token, compared to the current ~$0.10 price.
