The Next Memecoin Script: The Era of Flash in the Pan

Özet

The memecoin market is evolving from a period of frenzy to a more mature, fast-paced "flash in the pan" era. While activity has cooled since the 2024 peak, it remains a key arena for attention-based speculation. Key shifts are defining this new phase: dominance has moved beyond Solana (now holding 57% of new token launches) to chains like Base and BNB Chain; the market cap ceiling for successful memes has lowered, with mid-to-small cap coins like BRETT and TOSHI becoming the norm; and the lifecycle of new coins has drastically accelerated. Driven by AI and social media algorithms, tokens can peak within 24-48 hours of launch before rapidly fading. Recent trending memecoins like $Franklin (inspired by a political meme), $DOYR (a typo-driven coin), and $Horse_Success (a Chinese community meme) exemplify this trend—all saw rapid, short-lived pumps. The market is maturing from pure jokes into a "cultural index" of social trends. While established memes like DOGE and SHIB are building utility, new launches are purely driven by social hype and data, offering high-risk, granular opportunities. This structural shift demands faster reflexes and deeper research (DYOR) from participants.

Against a backdrop of a somewhat fatigued market, Memecoins, though no longer frenzied, remain a battleground in the attention economy.

Memecoins Haven't Reached the End, They've Changed Direction

Compared to the scene in 2024 where Memecoins stole the show, they have indeed quieted down a lot after $TRUMP this year. However, this is not the end, but rather the market evolving to the next stage.

From Solana to Base, BNB Chain: Initially, Solana monopolized 90% of the new token issuance share with its low fees and high speed. The launch of Pump.fun, in particular, significantly decentralized the power to issue tokens, catalyzing a year-long Meme frenzy in 2024. However, with multi-chain expansion and the continued efforts of other public chains, Solana's share has now dropped to 57%, with BNB Chain, Base Chain, and others continuously grabbing on-chain market share.

Small and Medium-Sized Memes Become Mainstream: The Memecoin market narrative has shifted from being dominated by Ethereum chain tokens with multi-billion dollar market caps like DOGE, SHIB, and PEPE, to Solana chain birthing large Memecoins with multi-billion dollar market caps like BONK, WIF, FARTCOIN, and TRUMP, and now to small and medium-sized Memecoins with tens of millions in market cap born on various chains, such as BRETT and TOSHI on Base chain, and Binance Life, BROCCOLI on BNB Chain. This indicates the market cap ceiling for Memecoins is continuously lowering, and the market is maturing.

Accelerated Rotation Pace: With limited liquidity growth and an accelerating trend in the number of Memecoins, the market rotation pace has shifted from "weekly" to "hourly." Particularly thanks to the proliferation of AI tools and upgrades in social media algorithms, the speed of viral spread and decay has increased dramatically. This results in a large number of new coins reaching their peak within just 24-48 hours of launch, with a lifecycle far shorter than the previous weekly cycles.

Recent Hot Memecoins: Social Media Hype + Small/Mid Cap

Browsing recent popular Memecoins undoubtedly confirms the above changes.

$Franklin: Franklin The Turtle was originally a classic children's character from a series of books and TV shows in Canada in the 1980s and 1990s. The current U.S. Secretary of Defense recently posted a politically satirical image on X, expressing a tough stance on U.S. cross-border military anti-drug operations. Subsequently, the同名 Memecoin portrayed Franklin the Turtle as a satirical, militarized anti-drug warrior. The coin launched on December 1st, reached a peak FDV of $24.36M by the 10th, and has currently retraced to $5.4M.

$DOYR: The起因 (cause) was that DYOR was misspelled as DOYR. Then, spurred by a reply post saying "DOYR = DO YouR meme?", the BNB Chain community quickly launched a同名 Memecoin. The coin launched on December 6th, reached a peak FDV of $31.34M the next day, and has currently retraced to $3.4M.

$马到成功 (Horse Success): Originating from the Chinese community's blessing phrase "马到成功" (meaning immediate success), it is a popular Chinese Memecoin following others like "Binance Life" and "Vulgar Penguin". The coin launched on November 15th, reached a peak FDV of $5.03M on December 2nd, and has currently retraced to $2.6M.

$jesse: A personal Memecoin issued by Base co-founder Jesse in November. The coin launched on November 21st, reached a peak FDV of $28.08M on the same day, and has currently retraced to $10M.

Opportunities in the Structural Changes of Memecoins

Starting from DOGE's dog meme to today's vast ecosystem where any topic can become a coin, Memecoins are no longer just simple internet jokes, but a perfect fusion of community narrative, attention propagation, and speculative frenzy.

This year's Memecoin market has been as刺激 (stimulating) as a roller coaster: accelerated rotation, smaller scale, multi-chain expansion—all marking a transition from狂欢 (carnival) to成熟 (maturity).

It is foreseeable that, regardless of bull or bear markets, the Memecoin market will not fall silent, because as long as there is attention, someone will go all-in on a dog picture to spread emotion.

However, in the flash-in-the-pan era, Memecoins are beginning to transform from "jokes" into "cultural indices." For example, older tokens like DOGE, SHIB, and BONK are shedding their religious constraints, continuously undergoing technical upgrades, and applications are empowering the Meme. Meanwhile, more newly produced small and medium Memecoins are turning to "social media heat + data-driven," which carries higher risks but offers more refined opportunities. The rise and fall of these Memecoins also represent the ebb and flow of heat around certain social topics.

No matter how you look at it, this structural change will reshape investment logic, bringing more opportunities for participants while also demanding greater DYOR.

As Consensus Accelerates, What Are Young Investors Betting On?

Title: As Consensus Forms Faster, What Are Young Investors Betting On? In the rapid evolution of tech investment, a new generation of young investors is navigating a landscape where AI, robotics, commercial aerospace, and quantum computing are advancing simultaneously. Traditional investment logic based on financial models is giving way to a need for deep technical understanding and the ability to act before industry consensus forms. An analysis of trends from the "WAIC FUTURE TECH" list of young investment leaders reveals key shifts in focus. The first major trend is the movement of AI from the digital screen into the physical world. Investment is shifting from large language models and chatbots towards embodied AI, robotics, AI hardware, and edge computing. While demonstrations generate excitement, the real challenge lies in achieving scalable, reliable, and cost-effective delivery in complex real-world environments like factories and logistics. Success depends not just on algorithms but on the integration of sensors, actuators, and control systems. Second, the competitive focus for large models is moving beyond raw capability toward building an "intelligence flywheel." The goal is to create self-reinforcing systems where user interaction generates data, improving the model, which in turn enhances the user experience and attracts more engagement. Companies that successfully embed AI into workflows to create these closed-loop systems can build lasting value that isn't easily erased by the next model upgrade. Third, facing a potential bottleneck in high-quality human-generated data, investors are looking at new underlying technologies. Reinforcement learning and self-play, as demonstrated by AlphaGo Zero, offer paths for AI to generate its own experience. Scientific foundation models, which aim to build general AI capabilities for fields like life sciences and materials discovery, represent a non-consensus direction that could unlock new frontiers of knowledge and data. Finally, in deep-tech areas like quantum computing, commercial aerospace, and space-based infrastructure, patient capital is essential. These fields have long, uncertain development and validation cycles involving complex engineering, supply chains, and regulations. Investment here requires a long-term view, focusing on foundational team capabilities and the eventual emergence of market demand, even if commercial returns are distant. Collectively, these trends illustrate how young investors are adapting to a new era. They are learning to make earlier, technically-informed judgments, balance hype with real-world viability, and provide the patient capital needed to build the deep-tech foundations of the future.

Can Japan Buy Growth with AI? Will the Bond Market Believe It?

Japan's cabinet has introduced the 2026 Basic Policy on Economic and Fiscal Management and Reform, shifting its primary fiscal target. The new framework moves away from the traditional annual primary balance goal and instead prioritizes a stable reduction of the debt-to-GDP ratio. This change is tied to a strategy of increased "responsible proactive fiscal" spending, aiming to boost long-term growth through investments in strategic sectors like AI, semiconductors, energy, and robotics. The government estimates total public and private investment in 62 key technologies could exceed 370 trillion yen by 2040. The market reaction has been mixed and cautious. While equity markets may respond to policy signals, bond markets are focused on fiscal credibility. Concerns center on whether the weakening of the clear primary balance anchor could lead to looser fiscal discipline. If investors doubt that these strategic investments will generate sufficient productivity gains, tax revenue, and nominal growth to outpace rising interest costs, they may demand higher yields on Japanese Government Bonds (JGBs). Recent volatility in the yen and JGB yields, with the 10-year yield briefly reaching 2.9%, reflects this skepticism. The success of this new framework hinges on two factors: whether Japan can achieve a nominal growth rate consistently higher than its long-term interest rates, and whether future budgets demonstrate disciplined control over bond issuance. The government's narrative is that strategic investment is essential to break Japan's cycle of low growth, aging, and labor shortages. However, the bond market will continuously assess the credibility of this plan, pricing the risk that it may represent fiscal expansion rather than a viable growth strategy.

Misjudged A-Shares: Resilience, Expectations, and Confidence

China's A-share market recently faced selling pressure, especially in tech sectors, initially triggered by a global tech sell-off that began in South Korea. However, the article argues this is a case of "mistaken injury" and highlights the market's underlying resilience. This resilience stems from three main pillars: **1) Tech Sector Fundamentals:** Unlike Korea's market dominated by a few memory chip stocks, China's tech sector is diversified across computing, communications, electronics, and semiconductors, supported by dual narratives of global AI supply chains and domestic substitution. Core areas like optical modules and fiber optics continue to show strong earnings growth. **2) "National Team" Support:** State-backed institutions and large corporations have made significant market purchases and announced buybacks, providing liquidity and signaling confidence. This is seen as a stabilizing policy signal, often associated with market bottoms. **3) Broader Market Pillars:** Other major sectors are showing endogenous recovery momentum. Consumer stocks benefit from stabilizing CPI and signs of sector recovery (e.g., liquor price hikes). Cyclical sectors like aluminum have high earnings, potential price increases due to tight supply, and low valuations. The financial sector offers stable dividends and low valuations. The conclusion is that the sell-off was driven by external contagion, not a collapse in fundamentals. With strong policy support and recovering momentum across key sectors, the A-share market possesses the toughness to regain stability.
