Once a cryptocurrency was supported by a story, now it’s about first defining keywords and then weaving narratives in reverse.



Looking back to 2013. That "Doge" meme was spreading wildly on communities like Reddit and 4chan, definitely a top meme. By December, two programmers, seeing the crypto scene becoming more dull and speculative, decided to create a parody project to mock this trend. That’s how $DOGE was born.

From a satirical meme to a top ten mainstream coin, from absurdity to market orthodoxy, the power of the crypto community is vividly demonstrated here.

And then came the recent new coins. For example, a young guy caused respiratory issues due to air pollution, and while hospitalized, he casually developed a small app for global air monitoring and travel suggestions. When the topic went viral and the app gained attention, sharp-eyed crypto enthusiasts quickly launched a corresponding token on a public chain, and wild speculation ensued.

This is the true logic of meme operation. From discovering angles, creating hype, to coin implementation, the entire process has become a production line. Speaking of which, besides BTC, are there any truly non-air coins?
DOGE-5.31%
BTC-2.3%

Damn, now even "air coins" have assembly lines? That's hilarious. --- Doge back then was truly pure, now it's all套路 and反套路. --- So basically it's just copying homework; whoever has more popularity can issue coins, right? --- Wait, do the applications really work or are they just a gimmick? --- It feels like the crypto world is using stories to deceive people, and humans are also using stories to scam the crypto world. --- It sounds more systematic than scams; who can withstand this? --- Does this mean everything except BTC has to die?

According to the database, the pipeline from DOGE to meme coins took approximately 11 years. It is recommended to be listed in the Guinness World Records.

From DOGE to various other coins now, it feels like they've been treating past luck as today's methodology. The story no longer sells anymore.

Assembly line production of air coins, sounds just like the Industrial Revolution... the only difference is the lack of automated processes haha

Haha, this routine has already become industrialized. The nice way to say it is "narrative," and the less nice way is a "harvesting process chart."

Pipeline production of air coins, the story is woven in reverse, who can't see through this trick?

Mass-produced copycat coins, as long as there's a story, they dare to issue tokens. Isn't this just the daily routine of the crypto world?
