Memes have completely lost their original cultural essence. 99.9% of the current memes, to put it nicely, are just money transfer games; to put it bluntly, they’re scams and rug pulls. Drug dealers, Ponzi schemers, and phone scammers— a good number of them have definitely started running meme coin schemes. Last year alone, at least 10 million coins were created. If each coin scams $10, that’s $100 million in a year. In Southeast Asia, a kidney goes for 400,000. Scamming 1,000 people would be 4 billion. Even Chen Zhi would have to kneel down and learn from them.
