Recently, the popularity of meme coins has indeed been on the rise. The discussion volume of tokens like $DOGE, $PEPE, and $FLOKI has significantly increased, reflecting the overall market sentiment heating up.

To be honest, market sentiment is often like this—it can push prices higher, but true wealth accumulation still depends on those who can stick around. Investors who have experienced multiple cycles of ups and downs and continue to hold their positions truly have a different understanding of the market.

The current question is, how long can this wave of meme coin enthusiasm last? Sentiment is just surface-level; the underlying fundamentals and application prospects are the factors that determine the long-term direction. Short-term fluctuations are visible to everyone, but the challenge is to find the truly worthwhile directions amid the noise.

If you're also observing this market, ask yourself: Are you just following the trend and chasing hype, or do you genuinely believe in the long-term potential of a certain project?

DOGE-0,4%

PEPE-2,61%

FLOKI-2,51%

Wait, DOGE has gone up again? My friend was still bragging about it in the group yesterday. --- It's true that emotions can drive prices higher, but the ones who really make money are always those who can hold on. --- How long can the meme coin hype last? Honestly, I don't know. I just can't understand why people have to chase the trend. --- Short-term fluctuations are obvious to everyone, but the real challenge is how to find the genuine opportunities amidst all this noise. --- Holding or chasing the hype—it's easy to say but hard to do. --- Does high discussion volume for PEPE mean there's an opportunity? I always feel that the most popular times are often signals to exit. --- Investors who can stick through several cycles are truly different. I'm about there, haha. --- Fundamentals, application prospects—sounds good, but isn't it redundant to talk about these for meme coins?

Emotions are a double-edged sword. When prices are rising, everyone can make money; when they fall, you see who’s swimming naked. Another wave of meme hype is here. This time, it feels a bit different, but not really that different. Honestly, many people are just riding the trend; only a few can truly hold on. How long can DOGE and PEPE continue to surge? I think it’s just so-so; it all depends on the fundamentals. Instead of following the crowd, it’s better to calmly think about what you truly believe in.

It's one thing to say it, but when it comes to actually bottom-fishing, everyone gets scared. --- Meme coins are just gambling; don't talk to me about fundamentals. --- After this wave of hype passes, those who cut losses will be crying again. --- Holding for so long and still not taking off really tests your mindset. --- The question isn't how long it can last, but how much you can lose. --- Everyone says to look for long-term potential, but in the end, it's just about who has better luck. --- Persistence? I think most people persist until they clear their positions. --- It's true that emotions can push prices up, but during declines, emotions are even stronger. --- Chasing hype and looking for potential are actually no different; in the end, it's just luck. --- That middle part sounds nice, but few people can really do it.

Emotions can drive the hype, but the fundamentals are what keep you alive. That's no lie. --- Doge is back up, but can it last until next year? Who knows. --- I just want to know, who really made money from this meme craze? --- Those who坚持持仓 (stick to their holdings) do live differently, but it also depends on what they hold. --- Short-term fluctuations, everyone follows the trend; the hard part is not following. --- Instead of worrying about how long meme coins can stay hot, ask yourself how long you can hold on. --- Those shouting about long-term views, I haven't seen anyone actually hold for three years. --- Fundamentals and application prospects? Meme coins, you’re telling me about that? --- Chasing hype for quick money and long-term holding, I've tried both, and both resulted in losses. --- Just because a project is hot now doesn't mean it can sustain; I've seen too many projects evaporate overnight.

Emotions are a double-edged sword; they can lift you up or tear you down. Talking back and forth about these things, it still depends on who can hold out until the end.

Alright, to be honest, it's still about gambling on emotions. Only those who can hold on to the end are the winners. Really, holding coins until now gives a confident feeling across various assets. It's hard to say how long meme coins can sustain this wave; it mainly depends on whether retail investors still have money. Fundamentals? Laughable. These things are always armchair strategizing after the fact. Following the trend always keeps you stuck in the cycle of chasing gains and selling at losses. Old coins are still old coins; new ones are just for gambling fun.
