Today, PENGUIN on SOL was pulled from 10M to nearly 100M in just one day, reminiscent of the peak of Meme on the SOL chain. Recently, I have seen many posts comparing SOL and BSC, and I also share some of my own opinions.
Players who have experienced the Pnut and Goal periods should know that the Meme of SOL chain is very dynamic. Often it is some iconic positive events, accompanied by price breakthroughs, and the market value rises to a new level.
Typical examples include Musk speaking out for Pnut Squirrel, mainstream financial media reporting on Fartcoin, and so on. Today's PENGUIN, I think several important milestones are the White House's tweet, A16Z founder's tweet and replacement of signature and banner, and Binance Alpha's re selection of the SOL chain's Meme.
Let's not discuss whether these Memes are already hot enough to go viral and have excellent news dissemination channels, or whether the organizers behind them have broad vision and can make top tier accounts go viral and gain popularity. Putting aside the reasons and looking at the results, this is what I think is the most impressive aspect of the SOL chain, which is its ability to effectively convert emotions and hot events into an attention economy on the chain.
This kind of pulling and pushing feeling that makes people afraid to get on the car seems to be rarely seen in other chains. Moreover, these coins provided retail investors with the opportunity to get into the market at an extremely early stage, and were not a highly controlled conspiracy board from the beginning.
I think the two most important factors for a Meme coin to have sustained vitality are a strong community and consensus, which can stabilize even if the price fluctuates or falls for a period of time; The second is an excellent rhythm, constantly generating relevant events to maintain a high level of discussion and topicality, while matching with price increases to form a series of main rising waves. Of course, the premise is that this Meme theme is good and cannot be a fleeting topic in itself.
In Binance Life Giggle、 During the era of the three horses of 4, it basically followed the above rhythm, but currently BSC's Meme is gradually exposing these problems. Some Meme coin communities and consensus are good, but the degree of resource tilt is not enough, missing the best pull period; In terms of themes, most of the coins that have been released currently still use the words' deduct CZ 'and' one sister's tweet ', which makes it difficult for them to have sustained and widespread dissemination, and cannot form a community around' memes'. Most players' participation ideas are to catch keywords and enter as early as possible, and if they miss them, they will wait for the next keyword.
Of course, there are also some issues with the SOL chain at present, such as the lack of its own top tier exchange, which makes it difficult to further obtain liquidity for on chain assets and thus open up the market cap ceiling. In addition, the overall market sentiment and view of Meme coin are not as strong as the market trend in the second half of 2024, which cannot be solved by any one chain or person.
Looking back on the time of fighting dogs in the past, it was really interesting. I still hope that the liquidity on the chain will gradually improve, and there will be a few interesting narrative and novel projects for everyone to explore together.
