Most memecoins find it difficult to survive long-term, and the reason isn't price volatility or functional flaws—ultimately, they weren't designed to last.



These types of coins are born for trading cycles. Create, flip, forget, replaced by the next version after a week. Endless dilution, memory wiped clean. The disposable factory of the crypto world.

However, there are indeed exceptions within the ecosystem. Projects that genuinely attempt to break this fate often focus on two aspects: first, by disrupting the zero-sum game logic through practical applications or community mechanisms; second, by designing liquidity and long-term incentives more thoughtfully. This is also why, even amidst the proliferation of memecoins today, investors continue to track those trying to break free from the routine—because once successful, the disruptors can often achieve a completely different lifecycle.

That was really harsh, but it hits the nail on the head. Most meme coins are just tools to harvest retail investors, there's nothing to hide. However, those projects that truly want to survive do have a different approach. The key still depends on whether they have something substantial to support them.

You're not wrong; most meme coins are just scythe harvesters in disguise. Just this line, "It was never designed to survive," hits the nail on the head. The ones that actually survive are the scary ones. What does that imply? Wait, are you saying those with community mechanisms can endure the cycle? I need to check that out.

There's nothing wrong with that; it's just the legalization packaging of a Ponzi scheme model. Run after a quick profit, how could it last long? Those who say they want to "break the game" are probably just digging a hole and waiting for the next batch of bagholders. If there were truly applications and communities, it wouldn't be called memecoin anymore; they'd have renamed it "ecosystem token" haha. No matter how you design the two dimensions, it all boils down to one logic—who will take the final baton? Just thinking about it gives me chills. I just enjoy analyzing this kind of thing, as if I also become an "objective investor," but in the end, I'm just holding chips and waiting for the next trend.

Basically, most meme coins are one-time consumables, there's not much to say.

That's a really sharp point. Most meme coins are indeed just fast-moving products to scam retail investors.
