The market patterns in recent years have become increasingly obvious — when the main market enters a period of weakness, meme coins start to bounce back. Many people have noticed this phenomenon. During downturns, mainstream coins are digesting negative news, but these alternative assets can find their own narrative space and attract retail investors' attention. Is there any new story behind PEPE this round? Is BONK still hot? Many people around me are betting on these types of coins, and I want to hear everyone's honest thoughts.

Meme coins are just the emotional trash cans for retail investors. When the market is bad, these things are the ones jumping around happily. PEPE and BONK have long lost their stories; now it's just about taking over and passing the baton.

I've seen through this phenomenon a long time ago; meme coins are the best tool for cutting leeks. The story of PEPE and BONK? It's nothing more than a change of skin and telling a new joke; the essence remains the same. I advise those around you to take it easy; out of the ten people who jumped in this wave, eight are going to lose.

You still have to play meme coins in a bear market; mainstream coins don't have much opportunity. --- PEPE BONK still seems to rely on sentiment this round, with no substantial narrative. --- Honestly, retail investors betting on these coins are just gambling on probabilities, trying to make quick money. --- When mainstream coins are dead and dull, meme coins are indeed active, but the risks are also high. --- Everyone around is cutting losses on PEPE, the hype comes quickly and goes just as fast. --- Meme coins are just a bubble game; make your money and run, don't be greedy. --- The hype for BONK has already dropped quite a bit; it's a bit late to enter now. --- Instead of pondering new stories, it's better to watch the capital flow; that's the real truth. --- During a weak period, go all-in on meme coins; anyway, mainstream coins won't rise much. --- After looking at so many meme coins, none can tell a good story.
