From my perspective, altcoins pose a certain degree of risk, but meme coins amplify that risk significantly. The history of meme projects disappearing without a trace has left many investors questioning their decisions. Despite this, the allure of striking it rich with the next big meme coin remains strong, driving investors to continuously seek out unrealistic gains. This cycle seems to repeat endlessly, with new meme coins constantly entering the market and tempting investors with the promise of astronomical returns. It's a trend that, from where I stand, perpetuates a cycle of hopelessness and addiction within the market.
