Entering the primary market for meme coins is like getting on a roller coaster without brakes—exciting, crazy, but full of risks. After experiencing multiple surges and crashes, with both pitfalls and opportunities, I hope to share some genuine insights to help beginners avoid detours.
1. Emotion is the first trap: The game between FOMO and FUD.
FOMO (Fear of Missing Out): Seeing a meme coin suddenly skyrocket and the community going wild can easily lead to impulsive buying at the top.
FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt): Once the coin price pulls back, the community starts panic-selling, and many miss the rebound.
✅ Don't be driven by emotions; make a plan and stick to it.
✅ Avoid blindly following trends; when the community is the loudest, the risks are often the highest.
2. How to filter potential meme coins?
The success of meme coins often relies on narrative + community + timing, rather than technology or fundamentals.
(1) Is the narrative sufficiently 'viral'?
Good meme coins usually have simple, fun, and easily shareable memes (like Dogecoin DOGE, Pepe Coin PEPE).
(2) Is the community genuinely active?
Be cautious of bots inflating numbers: Check the interaction quality on Twitter/Discord/Telegram; real user discussions are more valuable than mere emoji spamming.
Observe KOL attitudes: If multiple influential KOLs are paying attention, it could be a signal.
(3) Liquidity & Chip Distribution
Projects with low circulation + high FDV (Fully Diluted Valuation) are highly risky and easily manipulated by big players.
Check on-chain data for large holders: Use Etherscan/DexTools to view the percentage of the top 10 holdings to avoid being crushed by 'whales.'
3. Exit Strategy: How to lock in profits?
Meme coins often have a short lifespan; knowing how to sell makes you a winner.
Target profit-taking method:
Sell the principal when it rises 1-2 times; leave the profits for risk investments.
Breakout trend method:
Reduce positions when breaking key support levels (e.g., daily EMA20).
Consider exiting when community enthusiasm wanes and trading volume shrinks.
Hard lessons:
❌ I once held a meme coin and made 5 times profit but didn't sell, and it eventually went to zero.
✅ Later, I learned to 'extract profits in batches,' which stabilized my mindset.
5. Risk Management: Protecting the principal is key.
Position control: Meme coins should make up no more than 10%-20% of the investment portfolio to avoid excessive speculation.
Beware of 'insider information': 99% of 'private placement opportunities' are meant to fleece you.
Summary: Survival rules for meme coins in the primary market.
🔹 Narrative > Technology, but the narrative must resonate.
🔹 The community decides life and death; real activity is more important than inflated numbers.
🔹 Timing determines profits and losses; early low market cap opportunities are more abundant.
🔹 Knowing how to sell is more important than knowing how to buy; set stop-loss and take-profit levels.
🔹 Only use spare money to play; a mindset that doesn't affect life is essential to hold on.
90% of the meme coin market is a bubble, but the remaining 10% could bring hundredfold returns. Don't be greedy, don't borrow, don't go all-in; staying rational allows you to last longer.#加密货币总市值重回3万亿 #加密市场反弹 #币安Alpha上新
