Some analysts predicted Prediction Markets would completely eclipse the MemeCoin sector. Yet reality tells a different story—MemeCoin communities continue thriving while Prediction Markets carve their own niche. The two markets operate on fundamentally different mechanics and appeal to different trader psychology. Don't believe the hype that one trend must destroy another in crypto.

Here we go again, insisting on creating a do-or-die situation... Actually, having more tracks is a good thing, why compete against each other?

Ha, it's that same "who destroys whom" argument again. In crypto, I find these black-and-white predictions most annoying. The reality isn't as dramatic as it seems.

Haha, it's that same rhetoric of "this time I'll definitely take down that one" again. I'm exhausted... The two tracks are originally two different things, but they insist on making it look like a life-and-death battle.

Uh... it's that same "either/or" narrative again, give me a break. Meme coin communities have never been afraid of prediction markets; the two things are fundamentally different. One is about the atmosphere of betting, and the other is about the outcome of betting. The real question is how funds and attention will flow, not who wins or loses.
