Meme Deconstruction: Why Are This Bull Run's MEMEs Performing Exceptionally?

Memes spread through imitation. Any information that can be replicated through imitation can be called a meme, such as music, ideas, or styles. The process of meme transmission conforms to the lifecycle theory, and the mode of transmission is applicable to infectious disease models, but the strong meme standard is still difficult to quantify.

MEMEs present in different forms across various cycles, with their characteristics and mechanisms changing over time. MEMEs reflect to some extent the mindset of investors and market hotspots during different periods, encompassing perspectives on current new technologies and narrative directions.

The current bull run of MEMEs is influenced by social, psychological, economic, and technological factors. At present, MEMEs can be roughly classified into types based on mechanism innovation, market narratives, market sentiment, meme culture, celebrity effects, and hot imitations. The gameplay mechanisms are diverse, and reasonable strategies must be established to profit.

The future of MEMEs is quite controversial, with differing opinions among institutions, retail investors, and opinion leaders. MEMEs need to be both interesting and meaningful, and should not be reduced to mere speculative tools.

Since the birth of Bitcoin, MEMEs have performed well in every cycle. From Litecoin to Dogecoin, and then to NFTs and zoo MEMEs, they have presented themselves in various forms. With the changes in cycles, their characteristics and mechanisms have also varied. Reviewing their development history and current status can help better identify trends.

The rise of MEMEs is influenced by multiple factors, including:

1. Mainstream narrative demand
2. Infrastructure improvement
3. Official support for public chain
4. Align with the consensus concept
5. Market FOMO sentiment
6. The effect of wealth creation
7. In line with the characteristics of a "non-intervention" bull run.

MEMEs restore the original essence of unregulated finance, facing numerous issues. However, as a cultural phenomenon and popular investment, they have become an indispensable part of the crypto market. In the face of a complex market environment, it is essential to recognize that profit is the reward for good risk management; investing purely based on luck will ultimately lead to zero.

The future development of MEMEs still holds many possibilities. Some believe that MEMEs should be more meaningful rather than just speculative tools, and further development can be made in areas such as charity. However, how to define high-quality MEMEs remains a challenge with no consensus at present. In the future, we may see the emergence of MEMEs under capital consensus, or meme coins that pursue equality and freedom, which is worth looking forward to.
