Singh also highlighted the problematic influence of celebrities and social media influencers who allegedly manipulate token prices for personal profit:
Zeta Markets联合创始人Anmol Singh告诉Cointelegraph,“ Memecoin Bubble已经破裂”,理由是特朗普政府政策是主要贡献者的经济不确定性。 辛格还强调了名人和社交媒体影响者的问题影响,据称是为了个人利润操纵代币的价格:
“Celebrities, key opinion leaders, and insiders are blatantly exploiting their influence to inflate token prices before selling, eroding trust among retail investors.”
