I've had some profit with PEPE in past. It was my most yielding memecoin investment. There might be a few percentage profit on others too but they are still negligible. I'm currently heavily invested on top memecoins. I have Bonk, Bome, ShibaInu, mew as my largest holdings and aims to bag many more.
Its a surprise to see how fast a new meme coin rises but it's too difficult to find them. There are like a dozen of networks that are producing memecoins at a pace of 100s of coins each day in aggregate. Its even harder to predict which would have next pump.
I agree with you. It is very difficult to profit from meme coins. I have also benefited from Pepe and yesterday I also received a small profit from WIF. But I don't think meme coins can be a long-term investment. I bought pepe and wif and sold them at the right time. If you bought wif at the beginning of this year and you are still holding it now I think you have missed out on a fair price for wif.
