# MEW coin community chat: holders checked on-chain

> cat in a dogs world (MEW) on Solana: the verified mint, supply and holder count with dates, its official channels, and a MEW-gated room on Cherry.


A MEW coin community chat has to settle one thing before the first message: whether the wallet in the room holds the token at all. MEW, ticker for cat in a dogs world, is an SPL token on Solana held by 158,938 wallets on 13 September 2026. This page covers what MEW is, where its holders talk today, and how a room that reads the real mint off the chain works on Cherry (cherry.fun), a wallet-to-wallet messenger for crypto: sign in with a wallet, DM any address, join token-gated group chats.


## What MEW is

MEW lives at mint `MEW1gQWJ3nEXg2qgERiKu7FAFj79PHvQVREQUzScPP5` with five decimals, an address whose first four characters spell the ticker. Supply is fixed at 88,888,888,888 tokens, all circulating, and mint and freeze authorities are both disabled, so no wallet can print more and no balance can be frozen. Market cap sat near $35.9 million on 13 September 2026, 586th by CoinGecko's ranking, which files it under Meme, Solana Meme, Cat-Themed and IP Meme.

The premise is a cat picking a fight with the dog coins: the project's site opens on "For too long dogs have ruled the world" and sets its character against a dog tyranny. Its first liquidity pool dates to 1 April 2024, and the site states the split at launch: 90 percent of supply into liquidity that was burned, 10 percent airdropped to the Solana community.

That IP Meme tag is the part most memecoins cannot claim: MEW's site runs a media section of shorts, gifs and collaborations, and an April 2024 post there announces a tie-up with LOCUS Animation Studios on a 3D animated series. Holdings are concentrated even so, with the top holders above 54 percent of supply on 13 September 2026.

## Where the MEW community talks today

MEW's official channels are the site at [mew.xyz](https://mew.xyz/), the Telegram group at [t.me/mewsworld](https://t.me/mewsworld), and the mew account on X. CoinGecko lists the same set, so a fourth "official" group is checkable in a minute.

Open Telegram has a specific failure mode for a token this widely held. Anyone can join, so the room fills with wallets holding nothing, and the people carrying size prove it with a screenshot that takes ten seconds to fake. Discord's answer is a verify bot, which trains the community to click a link and sign something, the exact behaviour scammers copy. Our guide on [telling an official crypto Telegram group from a fake](https://cherry.fun/learn/guides/is-a-crypto-telegram-group-official/) works through the checks that hold up.

## MEW holders on Cherry

[MEW Holders on Cherry](https://chat.cherry.fun/@mew)

Cherry opened a MEW Holders room at [chat.cherry.fun/@mew](https://chat.cherry.fun/@mew) on 12 September 2026. Cherry built it and runs it: this is Cherry's holders room, not the token's channel, and Cherry is not affiliated with the MEW team. Entry is a single token balance rule against the mint above, minimum 1 MEW. On 13 September 2026 it was public, with 619 members and no reviews.

The app reads the balance itself, so nobody in that room sends you a verification link. [Token-gated chat](https://cherry.fun/learn/features/token-gated-chat/) covers the rule types; membership is re-checked in the background, and a wallet that sells out of MEW is paywalled: it stays a member with message content withheld until a later check passes. From inside the room you can [DM any wallet address](https://cherry.fun/learn/features/dm-a-wallet-address/), including wallets that have never opened Cherry, and [trade in the chat](https://cherry.fun/learn/features/trading-in-chat/): type the ticker and the message renders a token card with price and market cap, with the swap powered by Jupiter. Size that would move a $35.9 million market belongs in [OTC escrow](https://cherry.fun/learn/features/otc-escrow/) in the Cherry mobile app, where both legs settle at once and a timed-out deal refunds. An [airdrop campaign](https://cherry.fun/learn/features/airdrops-and-quests/) pays the same wallets the balance rule admits, so a second distribution lands on holders.

## How to create a MEW-gated room

1. Open [chat.cherry.fun](https://chat.cherry.fun) and sign in with a Solana wallet. The wallet signs a message; nothing goes on-chain and there is no gas.
2. Create a group with a name, description and handle, and make it public so it gets a storefront page.
3. Add an access requirement of the token balance type and paste the mint `MEW1gQWJ3nEXg2qgERiKu7FAFj79PHvQVREQUzScPP5`. Confirm it resolves to cat in a dogs world before saving, and match it against the address CoinGecko lists.
4. Set the minimum. 1 MEW admits every holder; 10,000,000 MEW builds a room of larger bags. A group takes up to five rules under all logic (every rule passes) or any (one is enough).
5. Share the room's public link. Visitors see the requirement, and whether their wallet clears it, before joining.

## Risks and disclaimers

A balance rule proves a wallet held the minimum when it was read, and nothing about the person behind it, so a MEW room still needs mods who can mute and ban. Concentration matters in chat as well as on a chart: above 54 percent in the top holders, a handful of wallets clear any minimum you set and speak as the room. Impersonation is the standing risk at 158,938 holders, so check the mint on CoinGecko before you trade or gate anything by it. Group chats on Cherry are not end-to-end encrypted, by design, so moderation and bots can work; DMs are end-to-end encrypted with keys derived from your wallet. Nothing here is financial advice. Tokens can lose value.

## FAQ

### What is the official MEW coin Telegram?

The group at t.me/mewsworld, which CoinGecko and the project's own site at mew.xyz both list, alongside the mew account on X. The mint is the tiebreaker for anything else claiming to be official, because a real MEW group can show the address that starts with MEW1 and a fake one cannot.

### Is the MEW Holders room on Cherry run by the MEW team?

No. Cherry created and runs it, and Cherry is not affiliated with the MEW team. It is Cherry's holders room for any wallet that passes the balance check, and it does not speak for the token.

### How much MEW do I need to join the holders chat?

The room at chat.cherry.fun/@mew asks for at least 1 MEW in the wallet you sign in with, which any holder clears. An owner running their own room sets the minimum, so a room that admits only eight-figure bags is one field away.

### What happens to my access if I sell my MEW?

Membership in a gated public group is re-checked on-chain in the background, about every three days per wallet. A wallet that drops below the minimum is paywalled: it stays a member with the room in its chat list, message content is withheld, and a later passing check or the Re-check button restores it.

### What is cat in a dogs world?

MEW is a Solana meme token built on a cat-versus-dog premise, a reply to the dog coins its site casts as the incumbents. Its site puts total supply at 88,888,888,888 tokens, with 90 percent of it placed in liquidity that was burned and 10 percent airdropped to the Solana community.
