The Meme Coin Craze: Profits and Pitfalls
This chapter examines the explosive growth of meme coins like PepeCoin, which achieved a $1.5 billion market cap within a month. The discussion highlights the speculative nature of these tokens, investor experiences, and notable financial outcomes, including significant losses for latecomers. Additionally, it critiques the operations of an MEV bot that impacts Ethereum users, drawing parallels between the volatile crypto market and casino-like risk behaviors.
