With how easy it is to make meme coins? It's no surprise why in the first place countless scam projects or rugpulled projects exist. I'd imagine trying to verify each and every one of them to be a massive money sink since the manpower needed to do so would be enormous and there's no real way to determine whether a project is a scam or not before it scams others most of the time, so it'd just be wasted manpower. It's also no surprise since the Solana network has cheaper fees, so those who'd be mass spamming the creation of meme coins would naturally go to the place where there's less cost to start their scam up.

In the first place, I think you knew you were investing in meme coins, so the idea of being rug-pulled should've been in your mind already. The meaning is pretty synonymous already with meme coins imo.
