contents The ground-breaking discovery of the first fully charmed tetraquark state $X(6900)$ in the $J/ψJ/ψ$ invariant mass distribution by the LHCb collaboration has inspired intensive theoretical studies. Various interpretations, such as molecular states, compact tetraquark states, and coupled-channel effects, have been proposed for these states. Of particular interest is the ongoing search for the triple-$J/ψ$ state--a fully-charmed hexaquark state. To deepen our understanding of the triple-$J/ψ$ state and to guide future experimental searches, we study the triple-$J/ψ$ system in this work employing the Gaussian expansion method and the $J/ψJ/ψ$ potential parameterized to yield a shallow bound state, as suggested in several theoretical works. Our results support a triple-$J/ψ$ bound state, even in cases where the attractive interaction between the two $J/ψ$ mesons is very weak. Moreover, our analysis implies the Efimov effect in the triple-$J/ψ$ system. In addition, we extend our investigation to the triple-$Υ(1S)$ system and obtain results similar to those for the triple-$J/ψ$ system.
