Pepe price

So here's the issue with memes, all the bullshit Murad says and why everyone is wrong. Long one. Memecoins like DOGE, PEPE, BONK, and WIF exploded unexpectedly. No one predicted their runs to multibillion-dollar market caps. They rewarded holders who believed in the lore, community, or humor, not those chasing quick pumps. DOGE’s rise in 2020-21 wasn’t hyped. It had years of history, a loyal community, and real-world adoption (NASCAR, actual memes). It ran from low market cap to mainstream fame before hitting billions. Faded all the way up from its initial run end of 2020 to Jan 2021 before dipping a bit, it 10x’d again. Normies loved it. SHIB, FLOKI, and others followed DOGE. True winners (like PEPE in 2023, WIF in 2024) weren’t over-analyzed. They ran hard, got faded, then pumped again. Holders who stayed patient got rewarded. The problem now is the “industrial meme complex.” Everyone now compares their coin to DOGE or PEPE, chasing “normie appeal” or “retail hype.” But internally, it’s “I’ll sell at 10x.” Weak hands + shorter consolidations = trader’s coins, not holder’s coins. Launchpads, cabals, and shady private sales killed the vibe. Memecoins became over-intellectualized, with retail often screwed over. Can we see another $10B memecoin? Absolutely. Will it be the ones CT hypes? Doubtful. The next big memecoin will likely come out of nowhere, timed with retail’s return. CT will be sidelined (as usual). Holding a meme-heavy portfolio now is riskier than ever, even for mid/high caps. Reflexive pumps (fast and hard during risk-on) have limited upside. Reflexive dumps hit holders hardest. Traders profit, while holders get burned. I'll dip in and out of memes, and if the market really signals a runner, I'm here for it, but since WIF 18 months ago, we've not had a normal meme (TRUMP doesn't count) reach even 3b mcap, despite BTC going from 40k to 123k.
