Last year experienced two waves of Meme coin booms. The March wave was quite grand, but user retention didn't keep up; by October, the Chinese Meme coin ecosystem suddenly exploded, and this time it's different—more people stayed.

The most intuitive phenomenon is the number of contracts on BSC, which has been leading other public chains for over a year. There is a key driver that many people overlook: the iteration of a major exchange wallet.

This update indeed has some real skills: the experience is incredibly smooth; the feature design is practical and truly considers the daily needs of ordinary users; the costs and slippage are lower than competitors. These may seem like small optimizations, but it's these accumulations that make users willing to stay and tinker within the ecosystem.

Oh, the October wave really kept people engaged, just like the quick run in March before. A good wallet experience can truly change habits—lower fees and less slippage over time help retain users. It's no surprise that BSC's contract count leads the way, given the ecosystem's maturity. Honestly, product details determine success or failure—small optimizations can accumulate into something big.

Oh wow, did the wallet update really boost things? What about the March profit effect, all just a bunch of chaos --- Exactly, details determine success or failure. With such simple optimizations, users will come back --- So, it's still about experience and cost, not how loud the concept is --- Wait, leading in BSC contract numbers doesn't mean more profit, right? That logic has some issues --- Can wallet iteration really decide the fate of the crypto world? That’s a bit far-fetched, isn’t it? --- Chinese meme hype in October is indeed crazy, just because the wallet became more user-friendly? --- Low slippage fees and such small things can keep users, showing they’re not that naive --- Having many retained users isn't necessarily good; sometimes, having many rookies is truly the real issue

Wallet experience really can determine life or death. What about the wave in March? They left early. More people stayed in October, honestly, because the wallet is easy to use, with low slippage and low fees. Who wouldn't be happy?

A good wallet experience can really retain users, unlike some chains where wallet operations are extremely complicated. The wave of Chinese memes in October also has its reasons.

That wave in March was directly overwhelmed; only in October did it truly come to life... Details determine success or failure, and the matter of wallets may seem insignificant.

The wave of Chinese memes in October really kept people engaged; a good experience is the key to success. Wallet iteration is a detail anyone can do; the main thing is to be cheaper and more user-friendly than others. The number of BSC contracts has always been leading, indicating that the ecosystem is still vibrant; it remains to be seen how long it can sustain.
