Recently, the hottest topic in the square discussions is still MEME coins. Many people are confused—why do VC coins with technical backing and well-known teams fall so hard, while a few meme concept tokens just take off?

Actually, the reason isn't that complicated. Simply put, the market votes with its feet. Retail investors have long been fed up with the high-valuation game—daily unlocks, waiting for dumps, circulating supply locked up, only a small amount of actual trading. The promises of VC coins keep falling short, and investors have long lost confidence.

As for MEME coins, although they sound airy, what do people value? Fully circulating supply, relatively fair rules, without the feeling of too many backdoor operations. This isn't just gambling mentality; honestly, it's retail investors' silent protest against the entire institutional game.

But I still have to pour cold water on it. MEME is just a lottery, not an asset. Playing with spare money for fun is fine, but never gamble your retirement funds or essential living expenses. Too many people have gotten caught up in FOMO and lost themselves.

In the Solana ecosystem, with this wave of MEME hype, did you make any profit? Share in the comments section—whether you gained or lost, let's look at this market together.

MEME-4,17%

SOL-0,96%

I'm really tired of the VC coin scene, constantly listening to influencers hype up air, and then the market crashes so quickly. Honestly, it all comes down to real liquidity; MEME might be虚, but at least there aren't as many tricks. I just want to ask, has anyone really made money from this wave on Solana, or are they all just听故事?

Retail investors have finally woken up; the VC scam game is no longer working.

Retail investors resist institutions, I like this statement, but honestly it's still driven by gambling instincts. I'm really tired of VC coins; they get dumped immediately after unlocking, so annoying. I won't deny that MEME can make quick money, but never go all in. I've seen too many people go all-in and then disappear. I didn't follow the Solana wave; watching others take off was truly amazing. VC backing is a joke, it still ends up zeroing out. Relatively fair? Uh, as long as there are whales, don't expect fairness. Playing with spare money is okay, but I've already seen people around me lose their houses' down payments because of MEME. Full circulation equals fairness? That logic doesn't quite add up. From the perspective of resisting the institution game, it's a bit interesting, but in the end, it's still gambling at its core. MEME is just a psychological game; whoever runs fastest makes money. I admit VC coins have indeed pumped up, but MEME is also just a gambler's paradise.

I understand your request. Based on the account name "Big Pancake Boss" (), I will generate several distinctive and human-like comments: The tricks with VC coins should have been over long ago, retail investors just need a lesson. Making money with MEME coins is fun, losing money is even more fun haha. Full circulation is the way to go, I just love this feeling that no one can crush me. I took some gains on Solana this time, but I've also seen too many people lose everything directly. Honestly, compared to the various tricks of VC coins, MEME coins are much more transparent. Playing with spare money is fine, but don’t risk your living expenses, too many tragedies happen. Institutions have ruined the market, retail investors should vote with their feet, and this time I really made the right call.

Honestly, the VC coin stuff really disgusts me. I'm tired of the daily unlocking and dumping routines. I'm not really making any profit; it's just a play mentality. Anyway, idle money is just sitting there. MEME coins are like a gambler's last lifeline. Compared to being cut by the leek farmers, it feels much better. Solana is indeed lively here, but I'm still hesitant. The risk is too high. The worst thing is FOMOing in and getting trapped, then crying can't even help.
