$BOB When a token "removes the meme coin label", it typically carries meanings and goals such as:
---
🧠 1. Change of image – wanting to be seen as a serious project
Initially, many tokens use the label meme coin to attract the community, create quick virality (like Doge, Shiba, BOB…). However, once they have a sufficiently large community, they want to shift to an image:
A real project with a clear product (DeFi, AI, layer 2, NFT…).
Practical applications rather than just entertainment.
---
📈 2. Attract long-term investors, institutions
Large investment funds, CEX (like Binance) often list few meme coins without a solid foundation.
The act of “removing the meme label” is a strategy to increase seriousness, making it easier to attract capital.

🔍 3. Preparing for greater development steps
Launching mainnet, private layers, dApp, staking, partnerships with major platforms.
Aiming for goals such as listing on tier-1 exchanges, or becoming a layer or ecosystem token.

❗ However, simply "removing the meme label" does not guarantee success:
Without a clear product, the community will lose trust.
It may be seen as a rebrand to escape the past of "pump & dump".
