Meme coins are struggling to grow; can the new DeFi projects take over?

Question

【Crypto World】Market trends are changing. Once-glamorous meme coins are starting to lose their shine, and investors are gradually shifting their focus to projects that are truly useful.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) is now standing here — with a market cap of $5.25 billion and a price close to $0.000009. What’s the problem? The supply is too large, making this coin like a heavy stone weighing people down. Want to see significant price increases? The difficulty level is rising sharply.

Looking at Dogecoin (DOGE), the market cap has already reached around $25 billion, with a trading price around $0.15. Sounds pretty good, but the $0.20 barrier is like a solid wall. To break through it? Massive capital injection is needed. The actual profit margin is being squeezed smaller and smaller.

But here’s a different voice. Mutuum Finance (MUTM) secured $19.6 million in funding during its pre-sale phase, with a price set at $0.04. This project focuses on decentralized lending protocols — a truly in-demand sector. Version 1 has already passed security audits by Halborn Security and plans to officially launch in Q1 2026. The key is, its business model is cleverly designed: the more users utilize it, the greater the buying pressure on MUTM tokens. This endogenous growth momentum is precisely something meme coins can never provide.

Such a large supply is really incredible. No wonder these meme coins are getting worse and worse... But wait, what is MUTM? Is it another new trap?

With such a large SHIB supply, it feels like being trapped in a gravity well. The RSI momentum has long dropped to a low orbit, and breaking through the 0.00001 launch window will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey...

Hmm... SHIB's supply is really incredible, feels like burning tokens doesn't even make a difference.

Dogecoin's market cap is already 25 billion, and people still hype it? Isn't this just a game for bagholders?

The meme coin wave is about to cool off; it's time to look at something truly useful.

With such a large supply, how can it increase... You really need to invest a huge amount of money; I don't play this.

The 0.20 level... many people must be trapped.

Meme coins should have died out long ago; SHIB's supply can't be turned around at all. On the other hand, new DeFi projects are the real deal, it all depends on who can actually deliver something.

Meme coins really can't be played anymore; that wall of supply is indeed tough. But to be honest, I still believe DOGE will break 0.2, it's just a matter of waiting.

Another new coin to cut the leeks? With such a large supply, still hoping to take off, forget it.

SHIB has long lost its popularity, and it's ridiculous to hype this now.

DOGE is dead at 0.2, after all this time still stuck in the same place.

New projects always boast extravagantly, let's wait and see which one runs away next.

Meme coins are indeed cooling off this wave, but new contenders might not necessarily save the scene.

Honestly, it's all a game of funds; whoever takes over will end up dead.

The supply is right there, making it tough; doubling your investment would require a miracle.

It's good to be optimistic, but risk diversification is still necessary, brother.

I’m now watching these new coins; last time I bought in, I lost everything.

Pre-sales and fundraising schemes are all played out and worn thin.

Meme coins should have died out long ago. With such a large supply, you still want to turn things around? Dream on.

Is SHIB still holding on? I already bailed out a long time ago, haha. With such a huge supply, what's the point? If you ask me, go all in on new projects. DeFi is the future, everyone.

The ceiling for Dogecoin is indeed there; it feels like it can't be pumped anymore.

DustCollector · Answer

Meme coins are really a thing of the past. With such a large supply, do they still want to rise? It still depends on projects with real value.
