Look at the rhythm of the crypto market over the past few years. In 2014, DOGE emerged as the first popular meme coin, and some people missed out. By 2021, SHIB suddenly appeared, repeating the Dogecoin story, and others regretted not jumping on the bandwagon. In 2023, PEPE's explosive popularity once again confirmed this pattern.

The market is repeating similar cycles, this is a fact. After every bear market, new hot coins emerge to attract capital and attention. PUPPIES, BONK, FLOKI, NEIRO, BOME, WIF… these meme coins carry investors' expectations for the next round of market trends.

The problem is, history rhymes but does not repeat exactly. The market environment, liquidity, and regulatory background in 2014 with DOGE are different from those with PUPPIES today. Opportunities do exist, but the risks are equally significant. The key is rational analysis, not blindly chasing the hype.

DOGE-0,16%

SHIB0,15%

Here we go with this cycle again, sounds good but who can really buy the dip? I didn't hear about DOGE at all in 2014, and when SHIB came out in 2021, I almost went all-in, but in the end, I didn't dare. Now that PUPPIES has risen, I'm starting to regret... I'm tired of this cycle.

To be honest, every time I say we should analyze rationally, but I still end up feeling envious watching others make money.

It's the same old story again, every time they say "this time is different," but it still ends up scamming people as usual.

Don't be awkward about it, I really missed that wave of SHIB, and I'm still regretting it. --- Memecoin is a gambler's paradise; politely it's called a cycle, harshly it's called a shell game. --- History rhymes but doesn't repeat exactly. I love this saying, but when the opportunity comes, it's still all in. --- Looking at these new coins, I always feel like I see through the market, but in the end, I still get cut. --- Every time I say I analyze rationally, I turn around and follow the herd to chase the rise. That's us. --- The people who bought DOGE in 2014 should probably be retired now, but what about us... still looking for the next chance to turn things around. --- There are too many coins like PUPPIES; who can predict which one will be the next PEPE? --- The problem isn't whether history repeats or not, it's that we don't have money to play with. --- The risks are huge, and so are the opportunities. It all depends on whether you're willing to go all in. --- Rational analysis? Bro, once you're in the crypto world, nothing is rational.

This wave of meme coin cycles is really interesting, but I think the odds of entering now are not that high anymore; there are too many retail investors. --- Every time they say the next DOGE, but only the people who invested in the previous one make money, haha. --- Rational analysis? In the crypto world? Friend, you're overthinking it. --- PEPE was indeed exciting, but now looking back, it doesn't seem that simple; the market has changed. --- Instead of waiting for the next hot coin, why not think about how not to get cut? --- The pattern repeats, but the blood and sweat money doesn't repeat. --- Another "historical rhyme" story, a script for cutting leeks with a new name and a new play. --- That's right, but how many can truly be rational? Everyone's been blinded by FOMO.

Honestly, every time someone shouts "Missed the next SHIB again," but how many actually make a profit? Basically, it's gambling—just changing the coin name and story, and the retail investors are always stuck.

Here we go again, every time saying history will repeat itself, but in the end, it's still retail investors getting cut.

It's the same old story, every time they say the next meme coin will take off, and what happens? Most people still get scammed.

Here we go again, rehashing old stories. Every time, they say history rhymes, but what actually comes out is just blood, sweat, and tears. Was DOGE really comparable back then? Now the liquidity is insanely deep. One whale's dump can crash the market—completely different game. Basically, it's gambling. Rational analysis and all that—if anyone truly mastered it, they'd be financially free by now. Yet everyone is here shouting "Don't blindly chase the pump." It's just a paper cycle. In actual trading, it all turns into a one-way downtrend. I bet next year someone will regret missing this wave.
