The Meme coin ecosystem in 2025 has already completely fragmented. Looking at this market ranking chart, I realize one thing — this game has long gone off the rails.

Some projects are still struggling to tell stories, build consensus, and shape cultural IP, but the coins next door have already skyrocketed to the sky. And those relying purely on emotional hype don’t care about narratives at all — it’s just round after round of capital betting.

What is the most heartbreaking phenomenon? The "garbage coins" in your eyes are being snapped up en masse, while once-stable old projects are now being ignored and pushed aside by the market.

The logic of this round of market movement has long changed. It’s no longer about whose code is better or whose technology is stronger, but about who can dominate the screens, who can be repeatedly propagated, and who can hit the market’s emotional pain points. From faith-based investing to pure luck games, from IP culture to a wave of capital frenzy, Meme coins have become the most genuine emotional indicator in the market.

Ask yourself — which layer of this market cycle are you on now? Do you truly hold genuine consensus, or are you just reminiscing about chasing gains and selling on dips?

To be blunt, most projects still talking about stories are just here to give away tokens. Really, no one cares about fundamentals anymore, it's all about capital pushing the market. The garbage coin I hold has the biggest surge, it's hilarious. This round of market is purely gambling, whoever is faster wins. Does it sound like a game of secondary market cutting leeks? Why do I feel like I'm trapped in the nth layer again... Without cultural IP, it's all emotional betting. Old projects are indeed miserable, quickly overshadowed by new coins. Screen-spamming ability > technical strength, it's absurd. I just want to know who isn't caught in the illusion of chasing gains and selling at dips.

Honestly, we're all just gambling on emotions. Only when I was truly cut deep and doubted life did I realize that technical narratives are all fake. The moment trash coins take off, I knew the game rules had changed. I chased three old projects, now I'm completely trapped, it's really ironic. Can spamming posts make money? Why am I still losing? I don't know which layer I'm on, but I'm definitely at the bottom layer. This is probably the endgame of meme coins; who still believes in consensus? I have nothing left in my hands, only tears and regret.

In plain terms, it's the capital game that has ruined the entire ecosystem; no matter how advanced the technology is, it can't compete with a good topic. Suddenly realizing that I'm at the very bottom. Honestly, who still cares about narratives now? It's all about who can create hot topics. This is the craziest part of crypto—shitcoins making a comeback against old projects, it's surreal. Wait, is the one I hold in my hand actually consensus or just a幻想 of a bagholder?

After all this talk, it's ultimately a game of Ponzi schemes that no one can escape from. I also rushed to buy when trash coins were hot, but now I'm just relaxing haha. No matter how good the code is, it can't withstand the speed of emotions; this is the fate of meme coins. I just want to know who can come out unscathed in this wave of the market; probably not many. Old projects are indeed miserable; they were hyped up so much at the beginning, but now they've fallen hard.

Really, right now meme coins are all about emotional tug-of-war; knowing code doesn't help. I understand the frenzy around trash coins, but I still hold onto those with "stories," maybe I'm just bad at this. What level am I on? I think I'm on the negative floors, hahaha. This is a casino; don't fool yourself into thinking there's any consensus. It's really heartbreaking when old projects are neglected, feeling like my vision is getting worse and worse.
