$FARTCOIN and $USELESS are shaping up to be my strongest conviction plays heading into 2026.
Here's the core thesis behind it:
First principle: hot air always rises. It's physics, it's market psychology, it's inevitable. When sentiment peaks and retail capital floods in, certain tokens ride that wave regardless of fundamentals.
Second principle: most altcoins are fundamentally useless. Let's be real about it. They lack utility, sustainable adoption, and real-world applications. Yet that's precisely why they move in bull cycles—pure momentum and narrative.
So if you accept both premises, why not position for it? The market doesn't always reward fundamentals in the short to medium term. Sometimes it rewards the understanding of market mechanics and crowd behavior.

Haha, that's really clever. So it's about betting on human nature, right? I understand this logic.

Haha, I give in to this logic. It's just gambling on human nature, no problem.

Haha, fine. Just based on the names of these two coins, I can tell you're serious. I understand this logic.

Haha, I love this logic. It's just gambling on human nature. Anyway, worthless coins still skyrocket in a bull market.

Haha, $FARTCOIN $USELESS, what a name. I knew right away that the author was a smart person. I used to play like this back in the day, but in 2018, I got a harsh lesson from the market.

That's the play.
