In 2021, utility coins were king.

Narratives were built around infrastructure:

“What’s the next $ETH ?”

That’s how you got 100x on $SOL , $AVAX, $FTM

It made sense.

VCs were betting on Layer 1s.

Retail followed the smart money.

Tech mattered.

Ecosystems mattered.

You were rewarded for thinking long term.

But this cycle is different.

2025 is the meme coin era.

Not because it makes sense.

But because liquidity flows where attention is,

And right now attention is tribal, fast, and emotional.

Meme coins are not just a trend.

They’re a high-volatility vehicle for liquidity rotation.

You can hate it but the smartest players are adapting.

You’re not early unless you’re uncomfortable.

So ask yourself:

Are you trying to be right, or trying to win?
