The thread was old and when it was posted it was no hope at all. But then, I guess that it all started with dogecoin when most of these meme coins came out. The hype and the pattern came through with it and yes, it's not dead at the moment and I doubt it that it's going to be dead.
There's a huge support from the community and that's the reason why many seem to be happy with these meme coins and they should look forward and thank dogecoin for starting everything out.
