Bitcoin price fluctuations have led to significant losses in altcoins, yet there are still many cryptocurrencies that have managed to perform positively. In particular, meme coins have driven the price of SOL Coin to reach the $205 target we have mentioned several times before. The meme coin frenzy within the Solana ecosystem has brought some investors gains of 300-400 times.
Crypto Expert Commentary
Crypto industry’s respected figure, CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young, drew attention to a significant issue today. Citing examples from 2018, the CEO warns that this situation could lead to serious problems.
“Meme coins are harming the crypto industry. It’s frustrating to see billion-dollar meme coins overshadowing hardworking teams developing legitimate products to advance the sector. Easy money, as shown by the 2018 ICO boom, cannot lead to progress across the industry.
Some argue that meme coins are a global lottery system that attracts new users to the crypto sector. Would you risk losing money to enter the crypto space? Moreover, considering the “shitcoins” from the 2018 ICOs, which were essentially a casino, did they contribute any societal value?
If you say meme coins are good for this industry, you must be a novice who hasn’t experienced the side effects of easy money.”
The Future of Cryptocurrencies
In 2018, people invested early in projects they believed in the story and vision of, attempting to make a profit. However, most of these did not survive to the present day, and investors suffered massive losses.
Moreover, today, numerous individuals with the sole talent of reaching thousands of investors on social media are launching meme coins without even bothering to present a product story. They remind investors of peers who profited from highly hyped projects and say “come and earn.” Recently, the first rug pulls have begun, and investors have lost all the money they invested.
The CEO of CryptoQuant says;
“ICOs attracted new investors in 2018, but at least they pretended to be building a product. Now, crypto developers are just launching meme coins instead of building something. This is much worse than the shitcoin ICOs.”
For now, it’s time to watch how long this “nonsense” that’s driving up Solana’s price will last. At least that’s what some experienced experts think.
