What am ranting about is meme coin can make you rich but can also swallow the gains back and the belief that buying during presale is not always right as lovehateinu is a proof. If you are a risk lover then make thorough research on a project before jumping on it and always consider it's community, use(if any), and don't do HODL is not Bitcoin. Read that some meme coin are created via inscription on the Bitcoin blocks and they are the hype now, well I am of the opinion that ordinals are just a phase like having a new toy would be fun for the first time until you get bored and get to another.
Chose to post this because a friend bought lovehateinu because he saw it in various websites but the reality was a dip than the presale price. I might be biased on my thoughts on meme so would be happy to hear our views on them.
You are drawing the wrong conclusions by citing your own purchase as an example. The correct conclusion is that there is no need, amidst the hype around one well-known project, to enter into other similar projects. Memcoins never grow without proper manipulation and proper marketing. The case of pepe or shib tells us that there was a good budget, marketing, and support from certain figures in the cryptocurrency world to promote these tokens. These are qualities that other memcoins don't have, but for some reason people hope that if they buy some similar memcoin, it can behave as well as its known counterpart. That's the conclusion you should draw when you lose money on a memcoin nobody knows about.
