Huge positive price waves in a matter of days or weeks are natural. But what is this all about? 
What are meme coins?
Meme coins are a type of cryptocurrency whose popularity is directly related to internet memes and viral marketing on social networks. Typically, they are initially created as a joke without any practical function.
The first and most famous token was Dogecoin (DOGE), launched in 2013 based on the popular Shiba Inu dog meme. DOGE was initially intended to be a parody of Bitcoin (BTC). However, over time, this asset gained a billion-dollar capitalization.

The main difference between meme coins and traditional cryptocurrencies such as Ethereum (ETH) or Bitcoin is the lack of intrinsic value and emission restrictions. Their cost depends entirely on demand amid the Internet boom, and because of this, meme coins are characterized by increased volatility.
However, recently, there has been a tendency to give meme coins greater practical significance. For example, the developers of Shiba Inu (SHIB) and FLOKI are creating their own metaverses, NFT platforms, and educational ecosystems based on these assets.

Million-dollar profit — this year’s trend
The number of issued meme tokens is growing with enviable regularity, and traders manage to earn fortunes from them. However, such success is usually short-term and random. In the long term, as internet popularity declines, the value of most meme coins tends to zero. 
Presumably, those who earn millions of dollars on meme tokens have insider information. Otherwise, how would these traders and investors know that prices for certain meme coins would show rapid growth? The editors of crypto.news spoke with traders who could make profits on condition of anonymity.
Frog Investments
Members of the Pepe (PEPE) crypto community are celebrating the frog token’s new all-time high. Amid this, one user said that he turned just $90 into $1.4 million thanks to PEPE.
In mid-April 2023, a trader purchased almost 6.5 trillion PEPE on the Uniswap crypto exchange just for fun. Since the initial investment amount was small, the trader did not sell the tokens and decided to watch what would happen to them.
This decision turned out to be the most correct one — in May 2024, 6.5 trillion PEPE made the anonymous trader a dollar millionaire. However, a user with the nickname Mina said that he does not intend to sell PEPE and now believes that one day, the price of the frog coin will exceed $1.

幾天或幾週內出現巨大的正面價格波動是很自然的。但這到底是怎麼回事？ 什麼是迷因幣？通常，它們最初是作為一個笑話而創建的，沒有任何實際功能。 DOGE 最初的目的是模仿比特幣（BTC）。然而，隨著時間的推移，這項資產獲得了數十億美元的資本化。比特幣等傳統加密貨幣之間的主要區別是缺乏內在價值和排放限制。它們的成本完全取決於網路繁榮時期的需求，正因為如此，meme 幣的特點是波動性加大。例如，Shiba Inu (SHIB) 和 FLOKI 的開發者正在基於這些資產創建自己的元宇宙、NFT 平台和教育生態系統。發行的模因代幣數量正在以令人羨慕的規律性增長，交易者設法從中賺取財富。然而，這種成功通常是短期的和隨機的。從長遠來看，隨著網路普及率下降，大多數迷因幣的價值趨於零。 據推測，那些透過迷因代幣賺取數百萬美元的人掌握著內幕消息。否則，這些交易者和投資者怎麼知道某些迷因幣的價格會出現快速成長？ crypto.news 的編輯與匿名交易者進行了交談。其中，一位用戶表示，由於PEPE，他僅將90 美元變成了140 萬美元。 。由於初始投資金額較小，交易者沒有出售代幣，而是決定看看它們會發生什麼。萬富翁。不過，一位暱稱為 Mina 的用戶表示，他不打算出售 PEPE，現在相信有一天，青蛙幣的價格將超過 1 美元。

“Sometimes I want to sell my PEPE, but I save it as a reminder not to rush. The meme coin market has not yet finished conquering the peaks, and it is likely that my PEPE will make me a billionaire in a year.” Mina, anonymous trader

「有時我想賣掉我的 PEPE，但我會把它保存起來，以提醒我不要著急。迷因幣市場還沒有完成征服高峰，我的 PEPE 很可能會讓我在一年內成為億萬富翁。米娜，匿名交易員

Strong belief in dogs and love of hats
A trader from the meme coin Telegram community shared an impressive story of earnings on the Dogwifhat (WIF) coin. However, this case is unlike the inspiring stories of traders whose coins grow 1000 times in an hour.
The anonymous trader used a different strategy — HODL. He purchased WIF in December 2023 and analyzed the overall activity on the Solana network and the crypto market’s growth prospects.
After weighing all the risks, the trader bought approximately $500 worth of tokens, expecting further growth. As a result, he earned about $15,000 simply by keeping assets on his balance sheet. 

對狗的堅定信念和對帽子的熱愛來自 Meme 貨幣 Telegram 社區的一位交易員分享了 Dogwifhat (WIF) 貨幣令人印象深刻的收益故事。然而，這個案例與交易者的勵志故事不同，他們的幣在一小時內增長了1000倍。他於2023 年12 月購買了WIF，並分析了Solana 網路上的整體活動以及加密貨幣市場的成長前景。 。結果，他僅透過將資產保留在資產負債表上就賺取了約 15,000 美元。 

“I’ve heard stories of traders making billions of dollars in profits starting with just $100. However, as an active participant in the crypto community, I find these stories to be the exception to the rule. The meme coin market is still very opaque and confusing, so the inspiring stories about traders are likely simply insider trading.” Meme coin community member

「我聽說過交易者從 100 美元開始賺取數十億美元利潤的故事。然而，作為加密貨幣社群的積極參與者，我發現這些故事是規則的例外。模因幣市場仍然非常不透明和混亂，因此有關交易員的鼓舞人心的故事很可能只是內幕交易。 Meme幣社群成員

More conservatism 
Another crypto community member with the nickname Andilet called for caution when investing in meme coins and shared his strategy for diversifying assets. He advised dividing the crypto portfolio by risk level, with 10% of the portfolio made up of high-risk, volatile coins, including meme coins.

“總的來說，很難預測模因幣市場的長期表現——因為在模因中，一切都很大程度上取決於炒作，而炒作的程度也很難預測。”安迪萊特 (Andilet)，SHIB 投資者

He invested in Shiba Inu in the summer of 2023, spending about $5,000 to purchase coins at a price of $0.0000077. Now, with an SHIB rate of $0.000025, his assets are worth about $50,000.

他於 2023 年夏天投資了 Shiba Inu，花費約 5,000 美元以 0.0000077 美元的價格購買了柴犬。現在，SHIB 利率為 0.000025 美元，他的資產價值約為 50,000 美元。

“I believe that in the case of meme coins, an individual approach to each project is important. You can guess the trend in the short and medium term by closely studying the project.” Andilet, SHIB investor

「我認為，就模因幣而言，每個項目採取單獨的方法很重要。透過仔細研究該項目，你可以猜測中短期的趨勢。安迪萊特 (Andilet)，SHIB 投資者
