In memecoin trends, you often see the Empire State Building top pattern, which is a wave of extreme highs followed by a pullback, and then a breakthrough to new highs. Look at $PEPE in April 2023 as a typical example — it first surged to an outrageous height, then retraced but continued to set new highs. This pattern repeats itself in altcoins and memecoins, and is not a coincidence. Traders who understand charts can identify cyclical patterns from this, and the key is to patiently wait for the confirmation of the second wave breakout.

PEPE-1.76%

Top of the Empire State Building? Laughs. Isn't this just the typical pump and dump scheme? The first wave pushes prices up to attract retail investors, and when it pulls back, the big players have already exited.

Empire State Building top? Sounds impressive, but it's just HODL and don't panic. I missed out on the PEPE wave, and now I regret it to death.

nah, statistically speaking your "empire state" pattern is just survivorship bias dressed up pretty. let me pull up my spreadsheet real quick—most memecoins that hit that peak never actually break through again, they just become evolutionary dead-ends. pepe was the exception, not the taxonomically correct rule tbh

Empire State Building top? Sounds impressive, but it's actually just a rebound before another surge. I missed the PEPE wave, and I'm still waiting for the second wave confirmation.
