it is that memes will bounce back first and most aggressively once it becomes clear that $BTC and broader crypto momentum to the upside has returned
we saw it clearly with $USELESS, $PEPE, and $BONK in the first few days of this year, with all three pumping 50 - 100% in the span of days and putting in some of the most aggressive bounces we've seen from any altcoin in recent times
like it or not, memecoins are here to stay
no amount of pontificating from 'experts' and 'OGs', or denigrating them, will change this reality
people just want to trade useless memecoins with zero promises, no whitepaper, no 'tech', no revenue, or anything of that sort
people just want to trade useless memecoins they can talk about with their friends and look cool while talking about them
and believe it or not, the more absurd the asset you made money from sounds, the cooler you look when you tell others about it
'oh, you really made millions from buying a coin called $USELESS early? like, really???!'
and that's why i'm confident that USELESS is going to multi-billions
the foundation is being built here
you can either be early or be late
but the people who are early are the ones who tell the stories
