I was early in Fantom (bought for half a cent). I was early in Polygon (just 2 cent for the first 1 million i bought) and many more. But right now I am having trouble finding early projects that are great, unique and still cheap. Solanaland is one and it can still go x1000. But next to that on Solana there is just a lot of memecoins. This seems like a pure gamble.
Meme coin is obviously gambling. You can make a lot of money or lose it all. I don't even take it as an investment caused by whole of meme tokens have no fundamental that can keep the price to be stable on long term. These days people prefers to bet on the meme token coz it can give them all a lot of profit in a short time unlike when they were investing into the token with good product. Solana is fully with meme tokens now. I don't even take it seriously consider that im not feeling confident to leave my money into the meme token form.
I do agree with you it's hard to find the gems these days considering the fact that if bitcoin has been increasing a lot. It makes all of new tokens traded at a very high price. The only chance for us to get decent return through participated into the sale.
This is the hardest thing to get an allocation to buy the tokens at the low price. We will not able to get more than 20x without participated in the pre sale. The only best thing to do airdrop task to get free token and free money. It sometimes gives us hidden gem and bunch of money.
Betting on meme token is very risky to be done. I rather than avoid this consider that i can also lose my money anytime.
