Recently, a certain Chinese Meme coin has been breaking records again. Trading enthusiasm continues to soar, and market participation is at an unprecedented high — this is not the first time such a phenomenon has been observed.

Honestly, what this reflects is an interesting market phenomenon. Early entrants have tasted the benefits, while those still on the sidelines are becoming increasingly restless. On one hand, strong community consensus is fueling the surge; on the other hand, there is endless imagination about the potential of Meme coins. The ripple effects of this cultural phenomenon in the crypto market are far more intense than traditional narratives.

But the problem is, in front of such highly volatile assets, participants often fall into two extremes. One believes firmly in the power of the community and plans to hold on until financial freedom; the other is willing to risk losing everything. There is no middle ground.

How extreme is the current wave of speculation? From market validation, under certain narrative frameworks, the power of consensus can indeed break through the limitations of traditional logic. This is a unique magic of the crypto market, but also where the risks lie.

MEME-2,52%

Here we go again. Whose coin broke records this time? Can consensus break through logic? That's just gambler's mentality, buddy. Those who can't sit still just want to buy the dip. Smart people have already run away. There is actually a third way between the two extremes—that's losing so much you start doubting life. That's the charm of meme coins, making money depends on luck, losing money depends on skill. Financial freedom? Let's talk about that when you actually get there, brother. Magic? Are you talking about the magic of cutting leeks? Haha. Strong community consensus is good, but once the market is locked, it turns into a performance contest. The risk of going to zero is always the most honest one.

Here we go again, how long can this wave last? The power of consensus is indeed incredible, but this thing is like hot potato—you have to make sure you're not the last one holding it. Alright, I've seen zeroing out too many times; if it's time to buy, I still have to buy. Meme coins, making money depends on luck; riding along depends on skill. Isn't that right? The early investors make huge profits, while the later ones buy the dip. No matter how united the community is, it can't withstand a single piece of good news hitting the market. It feels like it's already late to enter now, but watching the upward trend, I can't help but want to buy the dip. Is this record-breaking moment any different from the last one? It seems like every month I hear about a "new all-time high." Zeroing out or achieving financial freedom—there's really no middle ground; it all depends on each person's fate.

Here we go again, this wave of FOMO really can't be contained anymore. Early entry was truly a blood profit, but now following the trend... well, let's just pray. Community consensus, to put it plainly, is collective hallucination, right? Once you're awake, it's over. The phrase "no middle ground" hit me hard—either get rich overnight or lose everything overnight, it's that simple and brutal. I believe in the magic of this market trend, I believe in the risks, but I don't believe in coming out unscathed. Breaking records is nothing special; the next record will be their tombstone. Waiting for a reversal, never shorting.

Here we go again, do we have to push this wave too? Early adopters made a killing, and the rest are just gambling on whether they can take over. The feeling of not being able to sit still really hits home; FOMO is the ultimate killer in meme coins. Basically, it's faith versus luck; no one wants to admit defeat. The power of consensus? The risk of going to zero? Both are present, it depends on which side you're betting on. This is the madness of Web3, the logic has long since collapsed. Those who profit talk a lot, those who lose go silent. An eternal cycle. Early investors are laughing to death, and those still wanting to jump in now... I really can't match this price.

Here it comes again, whose leek feast is it this time? Wait, why do I always feel like I’m coming in too late? Community consensus? Sounds nice, but isn’t it just gambler psychology contagious? Holding on until financial freedom... haha, just listen to how smooth that sounds. The risk of going back to zero is right there, yet some people still pretend not to see it. This is the flavor of crypto—either skyrocket or drop straight back to zero. I think, the so-called "limitless imagination" is just another way of describing collective madness. Breaking records, breaking records, until in the end, you’re only breaking your own wallet. The middle ground? Friend, what are you looking for in crypto’s middle ground? Have you prepared yourself psychologically? Ready to witness a miracle or just see losses?

Here we go again, the endless cycle of FOMO. Watching others make money makes your hands itch, but as soon as you join, you're cut. Both extremes are correct; no one wants to be the one in the middle alive. Community consensus? Just listen, and remember to run when you're awake. How long can this hype last? I bet five bucks it will cool down next week. No magic, just hasn't exploded yet, don't fool yourself. We've stepped on all the traps, now it's just a matter of who runs faster. What's so special about breaking records? In the crypto world, records are meant to be broken. It's called a cultural phenomenon in a nice way; in harsh terms, it's just a game of pass-the-backet. Are you the one passing it? Early entrants are happy, later ones are the bagholders. I advise you to be cautious. That's why I only watch and don't play; the risk is ridiculously high. Can consensus be cashed out? Or is it just used to comfort oneself.
