What You Don’t See Behind the Memecoin Hype

A few weeks ago I saw someone post a screenshot showing how they turned a small amount into tens of thousands on a random memecoin. The kind of win that made me stop scrolling for a second i actually paused and thought maybe I missed it again.

But what that post didn’t show was the hundreds of others who jumped in after the pump hoping to catch the same wave only to end up watching their wallet drain slowly. Some went in with far more money hoping to multiply it only to be left with a few cents and no way out. And then there’s the liquidity trap. Even the ones whose bags went up can’t always cash out because nobody’s buying anymore.

It’s not that those wins are not real. They are. But they’re rare and when we only see the wins we forget how many silent losses sit behind them. That’s how survivorship bias works. It sells the dream without showing the cost. And in this space it’s easy to feel like you’re always late. Truth is most people chasing the highs are quietly bleeding.

So if you’ve ever felt like you missed the play take a breath. You probably dodged a bullet. Keep learning keep observing. There’s always another shot and it doesn’t have to come at the cost of your peace.
