Let’s face it, you’ve all looked down on memecoins. Perhaps you’ve gone so far as to label them “stupid” or a “waste of money.” The talking heads on CNBC certainly have. But then they clutch their pearls and whine about “market fundamentals.” At the same time, they conveniently overlook the decades of financial gamesmanship that created their empires. They want you to buy their smoke and mirror carefully predicated deeply manipulated stocks. But what if I told you that these seemingly ridiculous digital tokens, often adorned with Shiba Inus or Pepe the Frog, are actually a powerful force for good? And that their ascendance is exactly what scares the establishment?

Democratizing Finance Through Internet Culture

Think about it. The old financial system is a walled garden. To get into the game at all you need to have the right pedigree and a deep pocket full of capital. Moreover, insider knowledge is key—needed not simply to succeed, but at all. Memecoins, in contrast, are the digital equivalent of a pog party in your parents’ basement. Anyone can Step Up, anyone can Roll Deep, and anyone can make a potential killing.

It’s the best “go f*** yourselves” to the suits on Wall Street.

According to a ChainPlay research, memecoins experienced stellar performance in H1 2025. During the same time period, this sector experienced an average profit of 33.08%, being the only part of the cryptocurrency world to deliver positive returns. At the same time, things such as AI, GameFi, even NFTs were sinking. Floundering! Even that so-called “serious” sector, Real World Assets (RWA), had an average return in the red. Only 18.82% of memecoin projects achieved profitability.

The elites would like you to believe that investing is complicated. Their advice implies it requires years of specialized training and a professional-level Bloomberg terminal to thrive. Memecoins cut through the BS. They’re powered by community, memes, and a collective motivation to stick it to the man. It's financial power to the people, baby!

One of the beauties of memecoins is their absurdity. They’re illogical, they’re anti the status quo, and they’re fueled by viral buzz. This is exactly why the “boomer” generation, with their deep-seeded investment models, just fundamentally can’t understand them. They see risk; we see potential. They see silliness; we see a revolution.

The Boomers Don't Get It (And That's Good)

In the first half of 2025, nearly six million new meme tokens were launched. An average of 36,405 per day. That's a tidal wave of creativity and risk-taking that the old guard simply can't control. They are not able to control it or fake it. Not unless they wise up—some are starting to do—they certainly can’t make money doing it.

These so-called “experts” peddle fear about market volatility and “pump-and-dump” scams. And sure, those risks are real. I'm not going to lie to you. You can lose money. Well, you can’t, as it turns out, lose money buying blue-chip stocks. Enron, anyone? And the difference is, with memecoins, you are the one driving the car. You choose what’s right for you, after doing your own due diligence (and possibly employing a significant amount of meme-fueled gut feeling).

Forget quarterly earnings reports and analyst ratings. The real secret to a memecoin’s success is its memeability. Can it generate viral content? Does it resonate with the online community? Does it make people laugh? These are the questions that matter.

Memes Are the New Market Indicators

Memecoins are not only valuable digital assets, they’re cultural artifacts. But more importantly, they capture our common anxieties and our common hopes. They further showcase our irreverent attitude that traditional finance could never capture. They’re art. They're a statement. And, indeed, they can be tremendously lucrative as well.

Are memecoins risky? Absolutely. Are they volatile? Without a doubt. Are they, too, a radical new symbol of financial democratization and an establishment-bucking middle finger? So the next time you come across a Doge or a Pepe token, don’t be so quick to write it off as a frivolous flash in the pan. See it for what it truly is: the unironic savior of crypto.

And that's why the elites hate it. They can't control it. They can't predict it. And, most importantly, they can't stop it. Get on board, or get left behind. The future of finance is memetic, and it’s beautiful.
