As long as humanity exists, memes will not perish. Where will the next wave of memes occur?

Memes are not a product that only emerged in the internet era. They are essentially a form of 'self-replicating unit' of human thought, a cultural gene. From the earliest cave drawings and religious symbols to modern emoticons, memes, and short videos, memes have always been a core means of expression, imitation, and dissemination for humanity.

In today's era of information explosion, memes are not just entertainment; they have become a language, a rapid conduit of emotions, and a marker of group identity. Political propaganda uses memes, marketing employs memes, and even blockchain projects use memes to build consensus. Solana, DOGE, and Pepe did not win the market through technology, but through an image, an expression, or a resonance that triggered a global response.

The reason memes are so powerful is that they are rooted in humanity's most instinctive behaviors: imitation, resonance, and recreation. They do not require precise logic or lengthy explanations; rather, they are a form of communication that is 'understood as soon as it is seen,' with a strong emotional impact. Because humans are inherently dependent on this lightweight form of expression, as long as we continue to use language, images, and symbols, memes will never go out of style.

Where will the next meme wave occur on which chain?

The TON chain was originally considered a natural breeding ground for memes: strong social genes, native Telegram traffic entry, mature bot ecology, and a well-developed task system. However, the reality is somewhat awkward — meme coins on TON are currently underperforming. Most projects have short lifespans, low user loyalty, and limited hit effects, and have not yet formed a community consensus atmosphere akin to the 'hundred flowers blooming' on Solana.

The reason may lie in the more 'utilitarian' user structure of TON, where speculative inertia has not yet been established, and the KOL and content systems are still immature. Additionally, while TON's technology and dissemination mechanisms are good, the most critical aspects of speculation in the crypto world are narrative density and capital density. Currently, these two cores are still concentrated on chains like Solana and Base.

However, TON remains an undeniable potential stock. Its meme soil has not yet been truly activated. Once the platform's gameplay matures, community consensus is established, and emotional channels are opened, it may still become the point of outbreak for the next wave of meme tsunamis.

Memes will never die; they just keep changing chains. $TON
