These days, animal-themed Meme coins are quite lively, with crying horses and various small animal images taking turns to surge. I also participated in a few rounds, but honestly, I didn't catch the really low entry points, and I mostly took quick profits of 1-2x before exiting.

Compared to the previous wave of idiom Meme coins related to horse symbolism, the current pure animal image Memes are indeed less prominent in size and popularity. The projects that once flooded the screens with hype are now less hot, and although some new Memes are following the trend, they clearly lack sustained explosive power.

So I’ve adjusted my strategy—rather than chasing projects that have already gained momentum, it’s better to wait for a coin with solid fundamentals to enter during its Alpha phase. There are too many follow-the-trend Memes in the market now, so it’s wiser to be more cautious and only act once there’s substantial community or application support.

This is the fate of making quick money, always unable to catch the most lucrative wave. 1-2x returns are still considered rational, but it feels like memes nowadays have lost their magic. Agreed, fundamentals are the King, entering during the Alpha phase is the right way, everything else is gambling. Honestly, there are too many people following memes now, so there’s less opportunity. The idiom coin wave was indeed amazing, but now animal coins seem to lack follow-up strength. Better to mine Alpha, rather than chasing risks every day. Wait until something substantial appears, then talk. That way, the mindset will also be more comfortable.

That's right, I also got caught several times by this wave of animal Meme tokens. Chasing highs is truly a dead end. Wait, you're talking about fundamental support... Which Meme coin actually has that now? Sell at 1-2x, this mindset is much clearer than most people. I just couldn't hold on and got caught last, feeling heartbroken.

Haha, this wave of Meme hype is really a bit disappointing, mostly follow-the-leader plays. I missed the earlier idiom coin boom, and now looking at these little animals, they really don't have much explosive power. Wait, you're talking about entering during the Alpha phase... That idea is right, but in practice, it's too difficult, most people still rely on luck.

Haha, your move this time is actually quite clever. Running when the hype is high prevented you from getting caught, which many people can't do due to lack of insight. To be honest, this round of animal coins isn't as strong as expected; once the hype dies down, they become as fragile as paper. I agree with the move to enter during the alpha phase; it's definitely smarter than drinking leftover soup and scraps.

Haha, this wave is indeed a bit cold, feels like all unfinished projects. Making quick money is fine, but don't get caught, brother. Wait and see, anyway Alpha will come eventually.
