Entering a new cycle, the structure of the crypto industry is changing, the old narrative and logic are no longer fully adapted, and the market is moving in a more efficient direction. This can be seen from the Memecoin track, which is known for its strong community interaction, humorous style, and rapid and often speculative price growth. Although it lacks substantial functions, it represents a more efficient transaction application.
In this round of bull market, Bitcoin is soaring, and Memecoin is also growing wildly, forming a collective enthusiasm. Whether it is combined with AI or enhanced functions, Memecoin is constantly innovating more possibilities. Although the Memecoin craze will not weaken in the short term, it still depends on providing additional value, building a unique community and maintaining resilience. So, returning to rationality and looking at it from a dialectical and developmental perspective, is Memecoin ushering in a super cycle?
On October 25, OKX, together with several top industry KOLs including Benson of CoinKarma, Jackson, co-founder of 0x Scope, Barbara, core contributor of Pepe community, Adam, representative of Solana Foundation, and Jade Chen of TON Foundation, held a Twitter Space on Memecoin-related topics.
