Honestly, how many people really understand what Meme culture is? Many people's understanding is simply: watching who has strong product promotion ability, riding on hot exchanges, or following a celebrity to call it Meme. Is that correct? The core of Meme coins is not about who endorses them, but about community consensus and cultural identity. Those tactics of riding the trend casually or relying on flattery to harvest are bound to lead to a crash sooner or later. What is the true spirit of Meme? It is decentralization, grassroots participation, and cultural resonance. It is not just a simple marketing gimmick. Currently, the market is full of superficial articles like this, which actually damages the reputation of Meme coins. What do you think?

That's right, these bandwagon investors are just tumors now, really ruining Meme coins. Most people are just attracted by celebrity effects, they don't care about community building, and sooner or later they'll lose everything. I completely agree, the essence of Meme is consensus, not a game where everyone just follows the hype. I've seen too many tricks of riding the wave, and the ending is always the same dead end. True Meme should be grassroots, but now it's all just marketing and packaging trash. This viewpoint hits hard, pinpointing the current market pain points. Community consensus > any celebrity endorsement, that's fundamental, but now it's the other way around. I agree, 99% of Meme coins are just tools for pulling the wool over investors' eyes.

Watching this article late at night, I am truly exhausted. How many times have I calculated the gas fees for chasing the trend? Repeatedly buying high, with miner fees eating up half of the profits, and the community consensus turns out to be a joke. --- Another one talking about the Meme spirit, but the problem is, can you quantify community consensus? On-chain data is the real thing. Those who talk about cultural identity have already been cutting leeks in the secondary market. --- Exactly, but unfortunately, 80% of people in the market don't want to listen. As long as there are celebrities endorsing and exchanges launching, I have to follow when gas prices soar. It’s basically a gas war. --- Honestly, the time I spend analyzing Meme community popularity cannot be compensated by the gas fees saved; that’s the biggest contradiction. --- When cross-chain launching Meme tokens, the most tangible experience is that bridge fees, gas, and slippage are all hidden costs, making community consensus seem particularly powerless.

Exactly right, now it's really just marketing accounts playing with memes. Someone should have exposed this facade long ago.

That's right, right now this circle is full of bandwagoners, and no one really cares about the community. They immediately ask who is endorsing or promoting, isn't that just a gambler's mentality? If meme coins lack cultural identity, then they're no different from pyramid scheme coins.

Exactly right. Now, projects that exploit the meme banner to scam users are truly unparalleled, and community consensus has been turned into an empty phrase.
