A memecoin is a zero-sum* lottery.

There is no wealth creation. Every buy order is simply matched by a sell order. And after an initial spike, the price eventually crashes and the last buyers lose everything.

* It’s actually negative sum if the platform takes a cut.

Investing in memecoins is like playing a risky game where most players end up losing. Remember, the price spike is temporary and the eventual outcome is usually a crash. Be cautious and consider the risks before jumping into the meme coin trend.
