I'll give you logical comparison of what's happening in the market.
2017-2018 = ICOs/IEOs/STOs and then bear market came, they're no longer a thing today.
2020-2021 = Meme coins/NFTs, play to earn, they're still sort of a thing today but the majority of those NFTs that were in hype before are no longer known today.
2024-2025 = Meme coins still/TAP mining(TON) but I am expecting that they're not going to be a thing once the bear market comes.
So what's the clear winner here? the meme coins? LOL. I guess that it's a survivor in nature but many of them will fade too.
Interesting analogy, but memes are here to stay,
I wouldn't argue with that about memes because they're here to stay for sure but we don't generalize that all of them are going to stay. The most common and top ones are going to stay but many of them are made trying to fish some money in the market but mostly failed. Those are the ones that will be removed eventually. So, out of the thousands or many of meme coins, there will be only few that shall remain in the mainstream.
in my opinion, while hype on tap-taps is going to fade away eventually.
We have the same thought about that but TON will stay thanks to Telegram itself but whichever it is going to use for its market and survival, it's a connection that we might see for it to live. But as for the direct things with the tap apps, many of them will be forgotten after this cycle.
