Over the last few weeks I've gone from a long term conviction holder to a degenerate memecoin gambler. Lets explore my journey down the rabbithole:

$RNDR - AI x crypto 🤝. High conviction trade, but big gainz feel good. Still holding but the dopamine hit got my attention. Need more degen

Big win with $WIF, and now that I'm trading on Solana this ux is actually really good. Phantom on my phone? I can trade on the toilet? Oh boy I'm falling fast. Better buy some $BODEN while I'm here. OOh an AI token that calls memecoins? Yes please $DITH

Now I like $DITH as a project, but I lost alot of money betting on shitters that it called. The rush of seeing a token called, buying into a big green candle and watching the number go up is amazing. Unfortunately most of these aren't conviction trades and I had to learn. Get out while you're up or watch it crumble

Losing money on shitty tokens taught me a lesson real quick. A lot of memes will go up, but not many will stay there. It needs organic engagement. Some reply guy on twitter hyping a ticker isn't organic, but seeing several genuine people post about a ticker, maybe you're on to something.

With this mentality, I saw @base gaining steam and decided to make a more calculated play. 0.1 ETH to the top 5-6 memes that I find funny and let it ride. My first picks were $Degen, $Toshi, $Briun, $Mochi, $doginme, $tybg. At this point all up to varying degrees since I bought ~1 week ago

Those first buys were impulse plays, top tokens by volume on a chain I think will blow up. Buy it. As I've been looking more into each one, I still think they will do well, but many feel like forced narratives. They'll still go up because base is booming, but can we find more normilio memes?

Alot of these early memes are 'funny' because people on ct say they are. Did I actually laugh at $Normie or $Brett? No. I did laugh out loud when i saw bass pro shops though $BPS, and thats enough for a buy in this crazy new meta we're exploring.

And with that we're all caught up on my memecoin journey of the last 2 weeks. Something on ct this morning had me feeling NFTs for the first time in a long time though, so I did cop a new Based Fella. Never been much of an NFT guy, but I was feeling the vibes today and sometimes thats enough to drop $800 on a jpeg

Thats enough talking to myself on social media for the day. Catch me again in about 10 minutes when the next shiny thing comes across my feed.

$WIF. When og Messari analysts are all talking about a token, I buy it. Simple as that, the hat stays on. First I thought maybe it hits $1 and I turn a nice profit. Next thing I know I'm tripling down at $2.20, convinced that this is the meme of the cycle
