Recently, on-chain MEME coins have been extremely popular, with a bunch of new tokens riding the market sentiment to steal the spotlight, and stories of wealth creation flying everywhere. But how many of these can actually survive this wave? Honestly, coins without a solid community foundation, no matter how flashy, are just second- or third-tier cannon fodder.

Take SPURDO as an example. The reason this project has attracted attention is not due to hype, but because it has genuine community backing. Vitalik Buterin has visited the community multiple times, and fans are working day and night to build the ecosystem. This approach is actually the same path that SHIB took back in the day—seemingly unorganized, but actually supported by strong belief.

In this bull market cycle, MEME coins do have opportunities, but those opportunities will only be reserved for projects with cultural depth and community consensus. History tends to repeat itself, and this wave is very likely a replay of the zoo frenzy from years ago. The key is to distinguish between genuine hype and short-term speculation. That’s the real threshold for MEME coin investment.

MEME-1,41%

SHIB-2,2%

Really, the community is the hard currency. Without it, everything else is pointless. Vitalik personally getting involved adds a different flavor; no wonder SPURDO has survived until now. Most new coins are just short-term pump and dump schemes. They look lively, but in reality, everyone is just a bagholder. History does tend to repeat itself, but most people still can't tell the difference between genuine faith and pure hype. Basically, you need to find a community with stickiness; everything else is just superficial. There are probably only a few MEME coins that can truly survive this wave, so you have to bet on the right projects.

It's the same story again, community accumulation, faith support... I've heard it too many times, and in the end, it's still the bagholder crying.

To be honest, the group of people at SPURDO indeed followed at the floor price, and they haven't run away yet, which is quite impressive. V God constantly hanging out in the community is indeed rare; most project teams have already disappeared. Wait, isn't this just a replica of SHIB back in the day... Hey, don't you think? Community consensus is easy to talk about but hard to achieve; 99% of coins are just illusions. When the market is hot, any coin can fly; when the market cools down, you'll see who’s not wearing pants. Really, as the saying goes—it's harder to get off the train than to get on; most retail investors lose money because they can't bear to cut losses. Having faith doesn't equal making money; these are two different things. There are too many pitfalls; better to go all-in on Bitcoin and earn interest. By the way, how do you distinguish between real and fake communities? I haven't learned that trick yet.
