I went through a lot of narratives, both old and new.
Arguably, the few that make me feel great are $Y 2K and $Gary
Both market capitalizations are around 3M
A culture, a sport, a brand
They may or may not be able to rise to a high level, without any evidence of estate, only scattered whale chips and overlapping blue-chip communities. So I don't mean to recommend buying, especially for small funds.
Y2K is a tokenized nostalgia complex. I realized that there are many brands that are taking the millennial nostalgia route, and you can see a lot of millennial dream core style content on major video platforms. This is already the norm at present. In 2025, everyone feels lost, and the main player in Crypto is GenZ, who grew up in the millennium. Therefore, Y2K has become the collective memory of Crypto participants.
Gary is a kitten that can only adapt to infinite scenarios, similar to Michi and Nomnom, taking the infinite meme + branding route. Many Web2 brands, including McDonald's, have replied to their official accounts. Twitter's official interaction data has reached a fairly high level. Combined with a strong community, it gives me a $Kori feel as a whole, and I think it's more communicative than $Kori.
It is true that the entire meme market is becoming more and more controlled by the influence of "car head", "smart money" and "KOL", and the fundamentals of memes themselves are often ignored. People chase the phantom of being manipulated by big KOLs and bookmakers, but turn a blind eye to the interesting and highly disseminated meme itself. The arrogant lucky man becomes an idol, and the understanding of meme is gradually alienated into a blind obedience.
But in the long run, I still believe that culture will win in the end. But we need a cycle of liquidity expansion to fulfill this value.
Bad ending: Memecoins are history, and no one is hyping the Solana meme anymore – it seems unlikely at the moment.
Good ending: In the monetary expansion cycle, Solana becomes a recognized secondary financial market in the United States, and memecoins become tokenized cultural assets - which seems highly likely at the moment.
I believe in Supercycle. Of course, you can disbelieve it; If you don't believe it, it means you are smarter than me and you are right.
