Ansem: Meme coins are a core entry point for the crypto industry to continuously attract retail investors, and the next key step is to build long-term value.

Prominent crypto KOL Ansem stated on social media that meme coins continue to be a market favorite because they align more closely with ordinary users’ internet behavior habits. Compared to spending hours daily on social platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and X, most people only spend a few minutes each day using banking apps, making memes and internet culture inherently more engaging for users. Ansem noted that Dogecoin’s success stems precisely from attracting a group of users who would never buy stocks but are willing to purchase meme coins tied to familiar figures and internet culture. Once its asset size grows large enough, it further draws institutional capital into trading, creating a positive feedback loop. He believes many traditional investors underestimate younger generations’ affinity for memes, internet culture, and content, while the crypto industry offers a unique way to bet on these sociocultural trends via tokenization. The key to the industry’s future lies in converting the traffic and attention from retail investors into an ecosystem that generates long-term value, rather than relying solely on meme hype.
