Topic: Are Meme Coins Still Worth It in 2025? 🚀 Or Is the Hype Dead (Read 437 times)

It's just about the initial speculation that may see the memecoin weakening, and the trend isn't as hyped as it is in 2024 either.
But looking at how the AI Agent memecoin narrative will be in 2025, this will be a revival for memecoins with enhanced AI utility.

I'm also part of the holders of some AI Agent memecoins with a strong community and very optimistic developers like $KOKO KAOALA AI,
and I'm very optimistic about the bigger rise in 2025, it's only a matter of time before the Altcoin season really happens, memecoins will also skyrocket.

Not all memecoins will reach the highest price again, but only those who are able to survive and continue to grow and with the support of a strong community,
will only have to wait for the right time for the trend to return again and be more hype than the previous year.

Meme coins are indeed creating that hype and trend or simply being that part of this market on which there is really that indeed a season on where alts do really make up some moon shot. Even on ordinary day on which you will really be that seeing that there's so much volume on which this meme coin market is re ally that making or creating. Therefore, it will really be that up to you on how you will be dealing up with things accordingly on which we know that when it comes into this aspect on where meme coin investing is still that significant but of course you will really be needing up to consider into the things that you are really that dealing into because this isnt something that it is really just the same when you are investing on main coins.

Are they worth on 2025? This is a market wont really be that removing this kind of trend because if you do look at on how much volume does this market do make, then it do really shows that it is really that making something that interest because of the money making opportunity on what it do really give. This is why its really that important that you should really be that wary into the things or actions that you would really be that making when dealing up with meme coin investment. It is really that considered to be a gambling investment in comparing with some solid coins or projects in the market.

By that logic, there is really no "valid" reason for them to exist. It's just a trend and just like any other trend, eventually it will die down and people will avoid and it will cease to exist. The reason why trends go away is because at start it makes people money, even if just during the hype, sure they all crash afterwards, but it skyrockets first.

The reason why they start to go away is because most of them start to not make money, even at the start, it just releases and drops, so people start to avoid it thinking they won't make any profit. This means, gradually, the more people realize they are not making any money from it, they more they will run away from it and we are going to see the hype go down, and memes may cease to exist.

Is like many people do not know that memecoins are even doing better than many of those projects that claimed to have good utility and features. People are now seeing hood reasons to  invest in memecoins because they are ones of the projects that have good tendency to skyrocket giving investors huge profits from their investments.

Memecoins are good to hold but their are bad ones that do not deserve any investment at all because they do not have good team, having the probability of end up in rug pull. We should be careful on what memecoins we should invest in because there are many people launching their own projects just to steal money from innocent investors that know nothing about the project. Everyone need to be wise this time around.

Hard earned money isnt something that you should really be that putting into this situation on the time that you do decide to invest with meme coins. Always be considerate into the money that you are spending on which this should really be that only into the amount on which you can afford to lose because if you do put your life savings with it, and on the time that your investment showing up some negative then you will be that becoming impulsive and might that causing up into further actions on which be might that worsen up the situation. This is why its recommended that you do really know on what you've been dealing into and on the things that you must do. Majority do make this as an investment on where they do risks too much.

If we do tend to look at on how popular meme coin is and into those people who had become rich with it, then you cant blame them on why they have such high interest towards it because of the possibilities or chances on which it could give out into a certain person. If we do tend to look up on the overall volume on which meme coin market is really that making on which it does really shows up that huge amount of volume on which indicates that there's soo much interest towards it. On the time or moment that you will be dealing up with memes then only invest on the amount on which you can afford to lose.

Sounds true to their nature.
New memes => death of your depo in 95% of the cases.
Bigger memes => not a death, but not a 100x from them too. Sounds fair as the bigger the meme becomes, the less pushy it gets on the market too, which trades its potential for the stability of its price.

could say that 90% of memes are rug, if it's not big chunk of FDV + big exchange listing, big fat chance it will rug, too many rugger these days that I have trust issue buying new meme coin anymore only sticking to the one that's already listed in big market despite big FDV already when it hits exchange, but at least I know that there's some effort has been undergone to see whether there's potential rug or not.

bought several meme last december with small capital on a meme with micro market cap, all of them went to zero literally .

I am not sure if we are going to see memes ever cease to exist, there aren't really any valid reasons for it to go away, I am not saying they are good investments but that doesn't mean that we are going to end up with memes going away just because they are mostly not profitable. Of course it is going to be tough, but that doesn't mean that we are going to see them make profit neither.

Those are not connected to each other, 99.99% of meme projects fail, and only a few does well, and even in those few ones, only a couple are highly ranked, and yet people will keep it going because memes are mostly hype projects and what gets hyped isn't really based on logical arguments or reason, it's just hyped because it goes viral for a moment and nothing more. So we will see memes continue to exist and get funding and bought, while not making any profit.

That's the truth about them.
But people love flashy news - the ones that win big allure those who lose even more.

You have actually said what I wanted to hear, which is the higher the risk, the greater the return.
Then my question is are you willing to take such risk with your hard earned money?
Because by the look of things, investment in most of this meme coin are like gambling where the percentage of you ending up losing your money is like 50/50.
Though the gamblers will want to risk it, but I wouldn't do that because it's not a reliable investment too me since they aren't trustworthy as Bitcoin is.

Then lastly, if meme coin are actually dead? No they are not, they will always be there in the market, just as every other market where fake products are way more higher in quantity than the quality ones.
And you talk about those sets of investors that are still making it by investing in meme coin, yes, people are still making it, just that the percentage of those that are actually making it are just few, while the majority are losing money, so you see why it's more like gambling? That's what it is bro.

Memecoins are always around, whether it's a bear or bull market. They add flavor to keep the crypto market active. The hype is there because some investors got lucky and became wealthy, so many others want to try their luck with memecoins. However, while some get rich, most end up losing, and this is something we need to understand before investing in meme coins. It's important to be aware of the risks and not invest more than you can afford to lose.

Memecoins are definitely becoming a bigger part of the crypto market. They’ve carved out their own niche with communities that stick around to support them — whether it’s investors or whales jumping in to back them, creating their own bubble and grabbing attention.

Just like any game, you can join and play it in the safest way possible. Understand the risks because most memecoins don’t really have any real utility — they’re just about fun. So, let’s enjoy the ride while it lasts!

For those who believe in meme coins as community investors, there is a good chance that they will think that good things will happen to their meme coins holdings. Especially in the past year 2024, there were several meme coins that undeniably made a noise in the crypto space and even recently before the end of 2024, there were even more meme coins that were trending in the market.

So it depends on the investors if they believe positively. If the meme coins that we choose to invest in are right, then it is guaranteed that they will not become bubbles, but it is also possible that the majority of meme coins will also become bubbles in the end.

Unfortunately, we will still have a lot of memes in 2025. Some investors are still making money, and developers are still looking for the next big meme, and they are looking for a good narrative on the memes they are going to create on if these memes are a good gamble. As long as you are willing and comfortable with losing, I think after four years we cannot consider it a bubble anymore; its a part of the market that will not die because some memes are trying to have use cases, although many of us are hoping for this concept to burst.

Ironically, if you need to be ready or prepared to lose all your investment, then I am afraid you are not even investing money anymore and you would be gambling instead.
There is no amount of information or diversification within the realm of shitcoins which could save you of them getting flatlined by the whales, the scammers and pre-miners. It is better just to leave the gambling on the casino and investments to actual assets which have already been time-proven: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, among others.

Be wise and do not lose any of your hard-earned money this year because of the influence of people in the internet trying to push FOMO into your head.

Creating meme coins is already that too easy nowadays on which as long you could provide up that liquidity then you can already be able to make one, but due to this then it will really be that causing up that tons of shit tokens in the market or in decentralized exchangers. This is why on the moment that you do consider out on doing some investment with meme coins then i do agree about having that huge luck factor when it comes to meme coin hunting, because on the moment that you will be able to deal up with this but be sure that you do have that strong heart and mind because the fastness on how profits and loses come and go will really be just that too fast. If you arent that prepared for it then better not to touch up this space.

Are theyre worth it for this year 2025? Whether you do like it or not then you would be still be able to see up these shit tokens in exchangers. Not all will really be able to fly out but we do really know that there are some tokens that could fly out on time with huge multiplier and once you do able to spot out this one and able to buy cheap or at the bottom then it could potentially be able to make you rich and there are indeed people who do become rich because of such situation and thats why this is the main reason on why people are really that fond too much when it comes to meme coins because they do know that money making opportunities such as this.

I think meme coins still have some potential but they come w/ lot of risks. Some like pepe saw huge gains in 2024 most are still driven more by hype than solid fundamentals. It's easy to gett caught up in the excitement but the volatility can be brutal. If i were to invest in them, i'd make sure to have clear strategy, understand the risks and be prepared for the possibility of losing my investments. Diversifying and staying informed would definitely help minimize the risks.

This is the correct answer. They are a lot like gambling and they only go up with hype, and there are few of them which made some people rich, so there will always be other people who will try their chances. Of course there are hundreds of terrible ones that we do not even hear about, go take a look at any launchpool and you will see that in 2024 there were hundreds that didn't get even funding, and dozens of ones that get funding but did nothing but just grabbed the money and ran.

But just because there is a chance that it could potentially be a big one, a small chance, like a lottery, people keep investing into it. Sure there are plenty that went badly, but I am sure that it will not end and we will keep seeing it do fine eventually, we just need to be careful.

For me there are meme coins that are still worth it to invest, as you've mention there are some who are having upgrades,still in the market and so far some are even in the top 100 coins in cmc so for me that is a proof that they are still worth it.

Memes are like wild fire - they sparkle bright, and die out fast too.
No matter how many there are out there, most of them will be dead in a week or even less. If they are not honey pots from the start.

I think meme coins will still do really well this year. It's peak bull year, Bitcoin will drag many coins up with it tgis year. The only danger is that meme coins are a bit of a mine field, there are just so many, it’s easy to buy the wrong ones & get rug pulled. If you enjoy meme coins look for ones with a good community, a hype on social media & only invest a small amount.

so far, there are still a lot of meme coins that have emerged, and are still surviving. this proves that meme coins are still being used to gain profit. although there are a lot of meme coins that have died, new ones will emerge. as long as it continues to generate huge profits, i think it will continue to exist.

Memecoins are and will never be dead, memecoins are emerging into the crypto market everyday and they are the worst and the best assets to look out for if you wants to get massive profits with low amount of investments. The memecoins that actually do well and stand in the test of times are the ones listed on top and leading centralized exchange. These ones has greater usage with many use cases that brings utilities into the blockchain, they have every reasons why you want to purchase them thereby making them strive during bull season.

If you are looking to considering these assets, then you can pick out those listed on Binance, Coinbase, Okex and other volatile market or exchange, examples of these memecoins are pepe, floki, Doge, bonk, 1000Sat and many more on major market.

You just said it in the beginning of this thread by mentioning some meme coins of some specific years; these coins did well then despite the crypto market citation and most investors that invested in the project made a lot of money because they took great risk and invested early in the projects.
Therefore, if you are good in altcoin investment, you will still find your way out because we are seeing projects going up daily despite the market conditions. The only thing that is important to note is the risk involved in the investment, but the higher your risk, the greater your return.

Memecoins are very much alive and will be a part of the 2025 altcoin season big pumps, they’re not going into exile anytime soon and not even in this bull season we are already on. They may not necessarily take part as a whole but some few or more of them will give investors a lot of money in this bull season. They are all pure gamble, so when trying on some to invest into to make big profits, only invest what you can afford to lose. Having more funds to diversify into them will also help as you can’t tell which of them will give you that big profits you’ve been looking for. They are just gamble tokens and gambling is far from been over on the face of the earth, not anytime soon or in years to come from now.

Memecoins will never be dead for sure.
Everybody loves a bit of gamble and risk sometimes.

You many memecoins in the market right now compared to then when there are few to buy with good utility. What is means now is that investors are going to share their investments funds among these memecoins making some that has good community and utility to have less adoption. Memecoins are still trending and they are doing very well in the market these days. Since their are so many memecoins, it is good we buy the ones that have potential and could do well in the market in years to come. There are too many projects in cryptocurrency market and investors are always searching for a better one to buy and hold that will give them some profits.

Don't think so there are a thousand of them in the market now not like before.Have bought many last year and I can't really say I made any much profit from them unlike before. if one is not careful it will even result to a loss of lots of money.

Even though meme coins are supported by a large community, it is very difficult for them to survive and compete with other coins. After the hype dies down, the price continues to fall. This is what often happens to meme coins, even other coins can experience the same thing, so we must always be vigilant with the coins we hold and must be monitored at all times

If you know when to get in and when to get out, memecoins are good for gambling with some money. However, don't ever take them for longer term because majority of the memecoins will not survive that long. So it's important to know the timing. If you get the timing right, you will make money.

Memecoins are not dead and I foresee that thousands of new memecoins will be launched in 2025 as well. It's a game so play it as a game. It's not serious investment.

In my opinion, coinmemes is still very suitable for us to use as a place to make money. But not Dogecoin, Pepe and Shiba Inu because currently there are so many memecoins being launched through various chains and in my view, memecoin is not suitable as a long-term investment because it has a very high risk.

Memecoins are going to continue to be a thing this year, and the reason is simple: investing in memecoins is comparable to some kind of gambling and there will be always people willing to gamble their money in order to get a bunch of money from other investors (who should have known better before buying at the very top of the price).
Let us not fool ourselves, most memecoins are and will continue to be useless and just an attempt of a few people to grab cash from others and then get flatlined by the market, though that won't mean this year the trend is going to end.

The worst part of memecoins markets though, is how influencers and internet personalities have taken advantage of their followers to get richer by promoting some shady memecoins or even their own memecoin, with their name tied to it. Hopefully, we won't see as many blatant cases like those.

Well I do think there will always be some hype for the new meme coins. I do think in crypto when a new coin does come out there is hype. And there will be investors that wants to make some big gains from new coins.
But I do not think for me we should want to invest in new meme coins. Now it is too easy for a project to pull a 'rug pull'. And the new meme coin can make you lose all of your profit. Doge is meme coin we need to invest in.

agreed, too much meme coin created in this bullrun alone, the capital needed to mantain current FDV of these new meme coin is big enough, i don't think it can be sustaining, moving forward, maybe there's lesser and lesser meme coin retaining its current FDV. the only way for meme coin to keep the hype is if the crypto market keep growing, but at least for now I see the meme coin hype fading a little bit but still pretty much there.

I won't say the hype is dead, meme can always become hype out of the blue for no absolute reason, that's the magic of meme but then again, after a big rally like what happened before with PNUT and so on, you'd expect right now meme coin entering phase of distribution for taking profit.

Meme coins can still offer opportunities but they're risky gamble. While some have developed ulitilies or ecosystems, many others are subject to unpredictable hype cycles that can lead to massive losses. It's important to approach meme coins w/ caution and consider the long term viability of each project. If you're looking to invest, make sure to do thorough research and asses the potential beyond the hype.

The meme hype will always exist and may not even die for the next few years or periods because after all even though in the end the risk of being in memecoin is always one of the problems that are never finished but the interest in memecoin and the utilization of momentum to follow in order to at least make it a temporary advantage will always exist and even many beginners are now focusing more on memecoin than on better coins such as potential altcoins or even bitcoin.

 Some of them can also still be used as a means of utilizing and taking advantage when pumped like some of the memes that many people mention such as Pepe or some other memecoins.
Btw some time ago Elon also did another hypenya on memecoin and we know what happens when influencers like Elon make movements where memecoin or shitcoin that he pumped managed to craze in terms of price.

Whether it's worth buying or not depends on you, if you're not sure then you won't buy the exact same memecoins as gambling.

Because memecoins will never die, they will continue to appear every day, even hundreds to thousands of you will find it difficult to find diamonds in memecoins like Pepe and other memecoins.

So the meme trend in 2025 is still there with this narrative, but if you have doubts, don't ever jump into memecoins before regretting the losses.

1. For me, I don’t see them as worth investing in, as they carry the highest risks among all altcoin sectors. Profiting from them largely depends on luck. It may be suitable for short-term investment or speculation, but the investor must bear the risks and conduct a deep analysis of the market because not all projects are worth investing in, and new projects require extensive experience in conducting research, especially since the memecoin space is rife with scams.

2. The era of meme coins is not over yet, as some projects have risen to prominence and there are coins that have collapsed and disappeared. Perhaps investors’ enthusiasm for the meme coin sector has decreased since we are in the Bitcoin season now.

Not ending but too many meme coins were born when the trend was going on, most of them hunted and threw them away, so if you want to invest in it, you really have to sort it out very strictly because it has a high risk that the price could fall very deep

AI agents took the lead in this one - who wouldn't want to ape the thing that would auto-shill itself and its coin to the public?
A trend to see for sure, but it's just.. the same thing in a different wrapping.

Yes, some are still worth investing in, they are not totally dead actually but the hype around it is what I think has gone down.
If you look at the market today it's only pepe, dogwif and few others that are doing well, the rest of them are in the market but they aren't doing well as they were being hype in the past, so on my own perspective, the only meme coin that is worth investing in right now is pepe, because according to what I heard, they have the largest holders among all meme coin, and the value doesn't crash drastically as most meme usually does, so that shows that it's a proper asset to invest in if you are willing to take the risk on meme coin.

Meme coins are very much alive and would keep on dominating the market for at least some years. Except bitcoin, the whole market is either Utility coins or meme coins on highest cap. There might be rise of fall of individual memes but meme coins as a whole are still the leading genre generating volume in trade.

The largest volume category are coin equivalent on different network, which are just mirror coins and are not a single classification. While the largest volume are taken by meme coins. There are trends like NFT, Gaming and AI but they seem temporary. They don't actually fulfill what they say they aim to do. But meme coins outperform the expectation from the day one.

Back in 2021-2022, meme coins were all the rage. 
Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, PEPE — everyone wanted to catch the next moonshot. 🚀

But now it’s 2025, and things have changed...

🔹 Some meme coins are still around. 
🔹 Others have launched their own utilities and ecosystems. 
🔹 Most, however, lost their hype, and their value crashed. 💥

So, the big question is: 
❓ Are meme coins still worth investing in today? 
❓ Or is the era of meme coins officially dead?

---

Let’s be honest — we’ve all seen how hype drives this market. 😎 
One day, a random meme coin skyrockets by +5000%, 
and the next day, it’s down to zero. 🤯

But here’s something to think about:

💡 PEPE coin exploded out of nowhere in 2024 and made millions for early investors. 
💡 Some meme coins are now creating real use cases (yes, seriously). 
💡 Even Dogecoin got a massive upgrade to improve its ecosystem.

---

So… what’s your take on meme coins in 2025? 
- Are they a smart gamble? 
- Or just another bubble waiting to pop?

Let’s discuss! 🗨️ 
I’m curious to hear your thoughts. 👇
