TL؛ DR
1. Meme went through a slow germination stage from 2013 to 2019, followed by a chaotic period of rapid change from 2020 to 2022, and finally ushered in a period of rapid development from 2023 to 2024, and officially gained wide recognition and audience base as a single track.
2. The average daily turnover rate of Meme is about 11%. In comparison, DeFi is 5%, Layer 2 is 7%, and Layer 1 is 4%. This ratio not only highlights the high liquidity of Meme, but also shows that users are interested in Meme and have a high transaction frequency.
3. By the end of the third quarter of 2024, Memes market capitalization share in the entire کرپٹو market has increased from 0.87% two years ago to 2.58% today, and there is still a growing trend. If a simple linear regression simulation is done, this share will reach 3.54% in 2025 and 7.81% in 2030.
4. Meme is a leveraged Layer 1, which means that when the market conditions improve, the Layer 1 will increase by about 5 to 10 times.
5. Animal memes and cult culture memes are suitable for long-term attention. In contrast, other categories of memes are often related to short-term hot spots, and their attention and popularity may rise quickly and then fall back.
In 2024, the industry and the market are undergoing a dramatic reshuffle. Against the backdrop of poor performance of many VC-invested and supported projects, Meme has gone against the tide and become a new force that cannot be ignored. The rise of the PvP model, the wealth effect brought by single-coin crits, and Solana, which is extremely friendly to Meme, have all shown their unique brilliance this year. Murad, a representative of the new generation of Meme, has quickly become a popular figure in the Meme world through his speech at Supercycle. However, behind this Meme craze, what changes has Meme undergone? From the perspective of VC, how can we participate in it? These issues are worth our in-depth discussion.
میم بازار Panorama: Origin, Evolution and Market Data Analysis
Origins and influences
As a cultural communication phenomenon, the emergence of meme is closely linked to human history. Originated from the language, beliefs and customs of early society, it spreads among groups through imitation and learning. The advent of the Internet has greatly accelerated the spread of meme, which spreads rapidly among users in the form of pictures, videos, texts, emoticons, etc. due to humor, irony or resonance. Meme meets peoples needs to express emotions, share opinions and establish resonance in social interactions. It is a cultural phenomenon that reflects social trends, group psychology and cultural changes. Its spread and popularity are affected by many factors such as content attractiveness, communication environment, community acceptance and KOL influence.
In Web2, Meme culture was born and developed mainly on two platforms, 4chan and Reddit. 4chan is the birthplace of the popular meme Pepe the Frog, where a large number of Pepe Memes and their derivative culture are gathered. At the same time, 4chan is also the hotbed of Boys Club comics, providing us with an important perspective to deeply understand Meme culture. Reddit gave birth to classic Memes such as Dogecoin and Success Kid. Thanks to the active community atmosphere and solid user base of these two platforms, they are still the birthplace of many new Memes to this day. In addition to these two platforms, other social media platforms with a large number of users (such as Twitter X and Telegram) have also spawned some popular Memes. For example, dogwifhat, a dog wearing a pink woolen hat, has formed a hat totem culture in the community with its unique image since the early days. Many users and celebrities who like it have forwarded related hat dog pictures.
Evolution and Development
Started with Web2, crazy about Web3. In this article, we will refer to Meme and its related currencies as Meme without making any specific distinction. Looking back at the development of Meme, we noticed that it was not prominent in the early days and did not receive enough attention. Referring to the cyclical changes of the industrys bull and bear cycles, we can divide the development line of Meme into these three stages: the embryonic stage (2013 to 2019), the chaotic stage (2020 to 2022), and the rapid development stage (2023 to 2024). By consulting the historical snapshot data statistics of CoinMarketCap, the single-currency data of Coingecko, the historical information of search engines and social media content, we can have a more comprehensive understanding of the evolution of Meme.
Chart: The evolution and development of Meme
As of December 31, 2019, in the embryonic stage, Dogecoin was the only meme-type coin in the top 100 cryptocurrency market capitalization list, ranking 34th. Looking back at the period from 2013 to 2019, meme-type coins did not occupy a prominent position in the market. During this period, the industry was in a stage of rapid infrastructure construction, and everyone was exploring various new concepts. The mainstream new coins are usually those payment-type public chains with more efficient transaction processing capabilities and faster confirmation times, or new public chains with powerful smart contract functions. For meme-type coins, the challenge is that they not only require higher costs to establish dependent carriers, but also because the construction of liquidity is more difficult, which leads to small trading volumes and difficulty in obtaining widespread support from centralized exchanges. Therefore, in the embryonic stage of meme coins, except for coins such as Dogecoin that feature the Doge emoticon package and have a significant dissemination effect, there are not many other meme coins in the market that can survive.
Since the chaotic period that began in 2020, or more precisely, in August 2020, the IDO wave triggered by DeFi Summer has enabled people to build liquidity on the chain at a low cost, provide transactions, and quickly build trading scenarios. In this way, tokens can be issued at a low cost and circulated directly in the secondary market without being listed on an exchange, which has spawned a lot of on-chain memes. During this period, the surviving meme coins include SHIB, FLOKI, and PEOPLE. However, despite this, these early meme coins have not been taken seriously by the market, and their popularity is mainly based on the concept of hype. In addition, the popularity of memes in the chaotic period is often generated against the background of excess liquidity in the industry. They usually appear as the last baton after multiple sectors have risen in turn. It is worth mentioning that Meme also gained widespread attention during this period due to its association with celebrities, especially Elon Musk’s continued voice on Dogecoin in 2021, which not only made the price fluctuations of Dogecoin extremely significant, but also overall pushed Dogecoin to a new level in terms of market value, and the community also expanded significantly.
With the arrival of 2023, the craze for Meme coins continues to heat up, and a variety of Meme coins have emerged, such as BONK, PEPE, CHEEMS, Cult culture-related BITCOIN (HarryPotterObamaSonic 10 Inc) and SPX (SPX 6900), WIF and MOG. During this period, the types of Meme coins began to be refined, and other public chains such as Solana also emerged. By 2024, the development of Meme coins has directly entered the acceleration stage, and new coins such as BOME, lowercase NEIRO and GOAT have continued to emerge, each with its own characteristics. Meme has officially gained wide recognition and audience base as a single track.
Chart: Data indicators of some Memes
After sorting out the market value share and market performance of Meme in the top 600 cryptocurrency markets from 2013 to 2024, we can clearly see the growth of Memes market value and the expansion of its categories and quantities. During this period, Memes market value has not only achieved significant growth, but its types and quantities have also increased. As of the end of the third quarter of 2024, Memes market value share in the entire crypto market has increased from 0.87% two years ago to 2.58% today, and there is still a growing trend. If a simple linear regression simulation is done, this share will reach 3.54% in 2025 and 7.81% in 2030. 
Perhaps, we once doubted whether Meme was just a short-lived phenomenon, which would quickly fade away after the craze. However, with the research and understanding of Meme, I believe our views have changed. Meme will not disappear, but will continue to innovate, and new leading Meme may appear in every era cycle. However, behind these dazzling leading Memes, there is a cruel reality, which reminds us that we must always keep a calm and clear mind.
Market data analysis
By analyzing the development and historical data of Meme, we can get a general idea of its development trend. Then, studying the current market structure can provide us with an intuitive perspective to observe the changes in market hot spots and the flow of funds. Below, we further explore the macro indicators of the Meme sector, including core indicators such as market capitalization, trading activity, and average daily trading volume. These analyses not only reveal the latest developments of the Meme sector, but also show its future development trajectory.
Market value and quantity changes: Changes in the market value and circulation of Meme can reflect the markets demand and acceptance of it. Although some Meme tokens have a low market value, the number of new Memes shows that the communitys interest in the entire sector is growing. Compared with other sectors (Layer 1/Layer 2/DeFi), Meme is far ahead in terms of total market value and new number of sectors in the past two years. 
Trading activity: Memes trading activity and turnover rate are generally higher than other tracks. According to CoinMarketCap data, the overall market value of Meme tokens is approximately US$50 billion, and the daily trading volume is approximately US$5 billion. This trading volume is much more active than other tracks. On average, the daily turnover rate of Meme tokens is about 11%. In comparison, the daily turnover rate of DeFi is about 5%, the daily turnover rate of Layer 2 is about 7%, and the daily turnover rate of Layer 1 is 4%. This ratio not only highlights the high liquidity of Meme, but also shows that users are interested in Meme and have a high frequency of transactions. Meme tokens above the sector level, especially those with larger trading volumes, often become the target of market funds. 
نئی Meme سکےs’ Growth and Low Success Rate: New coins continue to emerge in the meme market, and their growth sometimes even exceeds that of mainstream cryptocurrencies such as BTC. This shows that the meme token field has high volatility and speculative opportunities. However, among the many new memes, taking Pump fun data as an example, only less than 2% of memes have been successfully launched, and only 0.23% of the current market value remains above 1M, which means that the probability of being able to withstand the test of time and survive is extremely small. 
Huge trading volume and new users: Meme can bring huge trading volume and has a relatively loyal user base. Therefore, for CEX, listing Meme coins can become an important strategy to attract traffic and users. Taking Binance spot market as an example, 20% of the top 30 trading pairs in terms of trading volume are Meme.
Chart: Binance spot trading data from CMC
Scarcity of Blue-chip Memes: Blue-chip Memes are relatively scarce. In the face of a huge number of hundreds of thousands of Meme tokens, less than 1% can truly be called blue chips. Taking the Memes recorded on the Coinmarketcap website as an example, although new Memes emerge in the market in an endless stream, only a few can withstand the test of time and finally emerge. In addition, the market value distribution of the Meme sector also shows a significant 80/20 rule: the market value of the entire sector is mainly driven by less than 10% of the top Memes. This highly concentrated market value distribution undoubtedly increases the difficulty of finding real value investments in the Meme field. If you participate in Meme investment from the perspective of VC, this is consistent with the rule of thumb in venture capital, the 2-8 rule: about 10% of successful Meme investments can make up for the losses of other Meme investments.
خلاصہ
Combined with the recent speech of Murad, who is highly respected in the Meme community, he predicted that the market value of Meme will reach $1 T in the future, which means there is a 25-fold increase space. It is expected that more than 25 Memes will enter the industrys Top 100, and VCs will buy blue-chip Memes, etc. Referring to our statistics, this prediction is too optimistic. The current Meme, whether in terms of quantity or market value, already belongs to a large sector in the industry. Future development is more about breaking through Layer 1. However, Layer 1 itself is also an important soil for the growth of Memes. The development of Memes will inevitably push Layer 1 forward in reverse. Therefore, we tend to conservatively believe that Memes is a leveraged Layer 1, that is, when the market conditions improve, there will be a 5 to 10-fold increase in Layer 1. But in any case, we have to admit that Meme is a field worthy of long-term observation and research. To this end, establishing a systematic trading framework can help us better understand and participate in this market full of potential and challenges.
Explore and research memes
As the wave of Meme sweeps the market, combined with our aforementioned panoramic research on the Meme market and future trend forecasts, we believe that in-depth exploration and research of Meme is a very necessary research work. Through this, we found that the value of Meme does not come from technology or practical applications, but from the enthusiasm of the community and the recognition of Meme culture. This motivation makes Memes performance in the market full of uncertainty and volatility, but it also brings unprecedented vitality. By summarizing these characteristics, we have constructed a clear analytical framework to understand and grasp the potential value and risks of Meme.
Basic characteristics of the plate
Although the analysis of a single meme can provide in-depth insights, a broader perspective is needed to fully grasp the development trend of the entire meme sector. Therefore, we first conducted a comprehensive study and analysis of the basic characteristics of the meme sector. In the current market environment, the meme sector has shown the following significant characteristics:
Low barrier to entry: The threshold for issuing Meme is extremely low. As long as you have a social media account, a Telegram group, and some creative pictures, you can easily launch a new Meme. There is no need to make products and develop applications like traditional cryptocurrency projects. The token is the product. The threshold for issuing Meme is significantly lower than that of traditional projects. As long as you have a social media account, a Telegram group, and some creative pictures, you can easily launch a new Meme. This process does not involve complex product development or application construction, making the token itself a core and directly market-oriented product.
Surge in number: Since the threshold for creating a meme is extremely low, a large number of new memes emerge every day. These new memes quickly expand the token pool of the market, resulting in a sharp increase in supply. With the continuous addition of new memes, everyone will face more choices, which also brings higher screening difficulty.
Significant wealth effect: Although the risks of the Meme market cannot be underestimated, it also provides huge potential returns for those who enter the market early. The wealth effect of single-coin critical hits and small-scale risk-taking is like a magnet, not only attracting the attention of many users, but also stimulating their high attention and active participation in the Meme market.
Market resilience: Meme has shown good resilience in the face of market fluctuations, and has been able to quickly recover and rebound from shocks. This rapid recovery is mainly due to the driving force of community sentiment value and the enthusiastic pursuit of Meme by funds.
Celebrity effect: The participation of celebrities significantly increases the hype and market attention of Meme, which in turn exacerbates price fluctuations. This celebrity effect not only attracts more attention, but may also lead to a series of information arbitrage behaviors, where some top players in the information chain may use their influence and information advantages to obtain improper benefits.
Low liquidity and limited funding capacity: In the early and middle stages of Meme, i.e. the on-chain market period, Memes liquidity was not high, which means that there was a considerable amount of water in its huge market value and trading volume. Due to insufficient liquidity, large funds will encounter higher slippage when buying or selling, which leads to increased transaction wear and tear costs. Therefore, the on-chain funding capacity of the Meme market is relatively limited, and it is difficult for institutions to enter and exit on a large scale without significantly affecting the price. This limitation not only increases the difficulty of trading, but also limits the depth and breadth of the market, making the Meme market more vulnerable to large-scale capital flows.
Extremely high trading risk: Due to the lack of practical application support and intrinsic value, the prices of many memes often rise rapidly and then fall sharply like a roller coaster. What is more worrying is that many memes eventually go to zero, that is, their market value and trading volume fall to almost zero. This high-risk trading environment requires us to be extremely cautious when getting involved in memes and fully aware of the possible risk of financial loss.
Active trading and easy to manipulate: Memes frequent trading and huge trading volume also show that the market has great interest in it. But lurking behind the trading volume may be unknown manipulative funds. For this reason, unlike VC projects, the Meme market is more like an open gambling speculative market where willing to gamble and accept defeat.
After an in-depth analysis of the basic characteristics of the Meme sector, we can conclude that the Meme sector does have some distinctive qualities that make it unique in the crypto market. The low entry barrier, the surge in volume, the low liquidity and limited capital capacity, the extremely high trading risk, the significant wealth effect, the activeness and susceptibility to manipulation, the market resilience, and the celebrity effect of Meme together constitute the unique ecology of this sector. For this reason, the Meme sector is often regarded as an arena full of PvP, which is not without reason. In this highly competitive field, everyone needs to identify the real blue-chip Memes and hidden Gems from the vast amount of Meme coins like a gold digger.
Features and categories
As the meme sector matures, we should no longer be bound by outdated concepts. Standing on the periphery and ignoring it, we cannot gain insight into the deep laws of memes. Todays meme culture has long surpassed the simple meme pictures at the beginning. It has become an important carrier for diversified expression of market sentiment and communication to people outside the circle. To this end, it is necessary for us to have a basic understanding of its key characteristics and classification.
Meme has many characteristics, some of which can be quantified using data indicators, while others are relatively difficult to quantify and are more qualitative. The key characteristics are as follows:
1. Cultural uniqueness: This is the core of Meme. It usually originates from a specific cultural phenomenon or social trend, and uses this to establish its unique identity and appeal. Just like the light-hearted and humorous Dogecoin and the self-deprecating Pepe, before entering Web3, they have attracted many fans with this cultural characteristic, who either use emoticons or create related emoticons.
2. Sustainability: It is the key to measure whether it can exist in the market for a long time. A successful Meme can often transcend short-term popularity and form a long-term cultural influence, similar to the concept of diamonds are forever. Dogecoin, which has been around for more than ten years, has accompanied the growth of the cryptocurrency industry like a leader and is the origin of the entire Meme. For new Memes, we cannot demand that they can immediately go through the test of Dogecoin for many years, nor can we imagine that every BOME that is listed on Binance in three days will be completed. For this reason, we believe that Meme should be able to last for half a year to a year in terms of sustainability, which is also in line with the time period for centralized exchanges to investigate project launches.
3. Spreadability: It is an important factor in whether a meme can spread quickly and be widely accepted. A meme that is easy to spread and has a good conversion effect can attract a lot of attention in a short period of time. Generally, it is observed by observing the discussion of related memes on social media and the growth rate of the community size. For example, the number of followers of a meme on Twitter is tens of thousands, which is the most basic requirement, and a better standard is hundreds of thousands or even millions.
4. Stickiness or loyalty: refers to the loyalty and participation of members of the Meme community. A Meme community with high stickiness can maintain the long-term participation of members, and members will not easily withdraw even when the market fluctuates. This loyalty is crucial to the long-term success of Meme.
The original Dogecoin brought everyone memes with cute cats, dogs and other animal images, but today, some new meme categories have emerged and merged with past animal memes, greatly including and expanding the categories of memes. Below, we have simplified the classification of memes, and different categories can be combined to a certain extent:
1. Animal Memes: Based on animal images, they express emotions or opinions through humorous texts and are widely loved for their cuteness and affinity. The most well-known ones are undoubtedly Dogecoin for dogs and Pepe for frogs.
2. Celebrity hype memes: By leveraging the influence of celebrities or public figures, focusing on and capturing their words and behaviors, and using imitation or jokes to creatively recreate them. Typical examples include a series of memes derived from elements such as Elon Musk’s tweets, personal profiles, and avatars, such as “Troll”.
3. Politicians and Events Memes: Use humor or satire to allude to politicians or events. Representative memes include slogans around Trump’s campaign and memes around emergencies, such as MAGA and FIGHT. In addition, there are memes related to the misspelling of Trump and Biden’s names.
4. Cult culture meme: It originates from the popular culture of a specific group, contains specific symbols or memes, and can only be understood by people who understand the background. It is loved by a specific group because of its uniqueness and exclusivity. This type of meme is somewhat similar to the concept of DAO in the past. The representative example is PEOPLE, which started with raising funds to bid for the purchase of the US Constitution and later became the code name of the people.
5. IP-derived memes: ٹوکن creation based on traditional anime IP or well-known NFTs, using their existing popularity to attract the corresponding target fan groups. For example, the associated memes launched by mfer, an NFT project that once featured mourning culture.
6. Mechanism Meme: Early mechanisms have special settings, such as fair distribution, destruction, and buyback with trading tax, etc. Currently, it refers more to memes issued through association and use of emerging AI technologies. The most popular one is the first meme GOAT created recently by terminal of truths.

Memes show unique cultural characteristics and audience bases in different categories, which affects their persistence, spread, and stickiness to the community. Among these categories, animal memes and cult culture memes are considered suitable for long-term attention because of their deep cultural roots and loyal fan base. In contrast, other categories of memes are often related to short-term hot spots, and their attention and popularity may rise quickly and then fall back. In order to quickly identify and understand the core characteristics of various memes, we provide the following evaluation framework.
Primary Market and Launch Platform
In-depth observation of the birth process of Memes primary market is helpful for understanding Meme, especially those Memes based on public chains. Even after a few years, the initial liquidity establishment can still be seen. Taking SHIB as an example, we can see the amazing growth of its market value by looking at the initial transaction of SHIB adding liquidity pool. Initially, SHIBs market value was only equivalent to 20 ETH, which was worth about 10K US dollars at the time. Converted to the current ETH market price, SHIBs initial market value was only 50K US dollars. For Meme, whose market value has grown to billions within a year, its wealth growth effect is undoubtedly very attractive and has publicity value. 
https://dexscreener.com/ایتھریم/0x811beed0119b4afce20d2583eb608c6f7af1954f
https://etherscan.io/tx/0x7f1be2ac40313400c83f23fbe3926bf6bf1d6b2b363264b3016444ea28fe21c7
As a leader in Meme culture, SHIBs brilliant achievements have inspired the birth of a large number of Memes. However, in this wave, not all Memes can continue to develop. Users have encountered many challenges in participating in these Memes, such as the strange circulation and initial market value, as well as a series of security issues, such as the sudden withdrawal of liquidity pools, Pixiu disks that can only be bought but not sold, additional token issuance, and Ticker confusion caused by the same name or inconsistent capitalization. These factors not only weakened user trust, but also brought challenges to the steady growth of the entire Meme.
This situation continued until the emergence of meme launch platforms such as pump.fun. Although it specifically targets low-market-cap memes, pump.fun has actually successfully promoted a set of standardized meme mechanisms, including the use of a bonding curve pricing model, a unified total amount of tokens, platform-backed contract security, and standardized initial circulation pool additions and destruction. These standardized practices not only improve the transparency and credibility of memes, but also provide a solid foundation for the healthy development of the meme ecosystem.
Because the pump.fun platform has stipulated for Meme: before the bonding curve is not completed 100%, the corresponding liquidity will not be migrated to the external DEX, and can only be bought and sold on pump.fun. Therefore, players habitually refer to Meme that has not completed the bonding curve as internal disk. On the pump.fun platform, the total issuance of Meme tokens is set at 1 billion, of which about 800 million are sold on the internal disk. When the internal disk sales reach the upper limit, about 85 SOLs will be consumed. After pump.fun charges 1.5 SOLs as a handling fee, 20% of the tokens will be minted, paired with 79 SOLs, and then launched to the Raydium exchange. At this time, the initial circulation market value of the token is set to 69 K SOL. This process not only ensures the liquidity management of the Meme project, but also provides a clear reference for the initial market value setting of the project.
For readers who want to learn more about the numerical simulation of the pump.fun protocol, Gryphsis Academy provides a detailed article called Pump.fun Protocol Insights: From Bonding Curve Calculation to Profitable Strategy Construction. This article not only explains in detail how the pump.fun protocol works, but also provides deep insights into how to use the bonding curve for numerical simulation. (The migration fee changes in real time according to the official settings, currently 1.5 Sol)
Although the current pump.fun focuses on the launch of low-market-cap memes, this does not mean that the ceiling of these memes is limited. Recently, two memes launched through pump.fun have been successfully listed on first-tier exchanges (in the form of contracts). This achievement not only promoted pump.funs meme launch activities, but also brought significant economic benefits to pump.fun. For this reason, a new product Moonshot that challenges pump.funs position has appeared on the Solana chain. At the same time, there are meme launch platforms that imitate pump.fun on other public chains, such as Trons Sunpump, which are actively competing for the share of the meme market.
In terms of the launch mechanism, the main improvement of Moonshot compared to pump.fun is that it supports the initial pool addition of different external DEXs, and there are differences in the initial full market value. Apart from this, the differences between the two in other aspects are not significant. As for Sunpump, its overall mechanism is similar to pump.fun. Since the industry generally follows the first is first principle, even if users are attracted to vampire attacks through incentives such as token airdrops, it is difficult for new entrants to achieve a significant surpass. Next , we combine dunes data to gain a deeper understanding of the data performance of pump.fun, Moonshot, and Sunpump to evaluate their performance and competitiveness in the market.
According to Dune data, the pump.fun platform shows a clear lead in key metrics such as the number of token launches, revenue, and new addresses participating. Specifically, pump.fun launched a staggering 34,027 tokens on October 23 (at the time of writing). In terms of revenue, pump.funs performance was equally impressive, generating more than $2.09 million in revenue in 24 hours. In addition, the growth in daily active addresses reached 107,355, of which 43,760 were new wallets, reflecting the extremely high level of user engagement in pump.fun. These data points also collectively portray pump.funs strong performance in the Meme market and its broad user base.

In contrast, the Ethereum mainnet, as the birthplace of the old Meme, has no real Meme launch platform, and the only Etherfun platform recently launched by Vista has not received much attention. Of course, this may be related to the TPS of the Ethereum mainnet and the high gas fee, because the launch of low-market-cap Memes requires fast and low-cost transactions to achieve the advantage of quantity. Perhaps in the future, we may see some changes and developments in the Layer 2 such as the Base where Meme is divided into good layers.
Lifecycle and pricing logic
The life cycle of a meme is unpredictable, and its survival time can be as short as a few minutes or as long as several years. For memes that can stand the test of time and continue to be popular, they usually go through several different stages of development. Taking DEX and CEX as the boundary, we outline the basic evolution of memes from the early stages of DEX to the mature stage of CEX. During this process, key indicators such as the market value and community size of the meme will show significant changes.
In terms of market capitalization and user number analysis, we used some stable Meme projects to form a preliminary judgment. According to the holder analysis of 0x Scope, it is found that the number of Retail Holders is generally much larger than other types of holders (such as whales and large users), and the market value of the tokens they hold accounts for about 20% to 25% of the total market value. By analyzing the average purchase amount of Retail Holders of Meme coins, we can estimate the market value data.
Taking Meme coin with a market value of $1 million as an example, the value of the coins held by Retail Holders is approximately between $200,000 and $250,000. Assuming there are about 1,000 coin holders, the average value of Meme coins held by each person is about $200 to $250. This figure is within a reasonable range of the single coin purchase amount of coin circle users.
This estimation method provides us with an intuitive perspective to help us evaluate the correlation between memes in different ranges of market capitalization and user engagement.
https://dune.com/dyorcrypto/memecoins
Of course, based on the rough pricing above, we can try to find a more accurate method or framework to evaluate the fair value of Meme. To do this, we can take a similar approach to value investment valuation. Study and learn the existing Meme valuations and related data, and statistically analyze the valuation changes of different types of Meme at various stages of development, as well as the dynamics of on-chain data.
Generally speaking, the initial price of Meme is usually determined by the AMM model based on market supply and demand. Once the initial unit price is determined, the market value of Meme can be calculated by multiplying the unit price by the circulation volume. It should be noted that this market value will fluctuate with changes in market conditions and dynamic adjustments of the liquidity pool.
According to the constant product formula of AMM, the growth curve of capital inflow, the proportion of tokens in the initial liquidity pool, and selling pressure will all affect the market value. The simplest formula of the basic model is: if the market value doubles, the net inflow of funds will double, and if the market value doubles, the net inflow of funds will triple. However, this does not yet include some complex factors, such as:
1. Transaction fees paid to liquidity providers (LPs);
2. The inflow and outflow of funds in the liquidity pool (LP pool).
In the actual dynamic market, the pricing model cannot be so ideal. For this reason, the fair price of Meme should be calculated in combination with other indicators, such as transaction volume, number of transactions, and the distribution of the number of users holding coins . Of course, this is a cost-driven market value idea. As costs continue to increase, the market value of Meme should also increase accordingly. When breaking down these costs, the first thing to notice is the transaction fees brought by the transaction volume. These fees constitute the main cost of maintaining the market value. In addition, there are other hidden costs: the gas fee paid to the blockchain network for each transaction and the capital and time cost of the coin holders. The cumulative effect of these costs may have a significant impact on the overall market value of Meme. We believe that this can explain the fair value of Meme to a certain extent, but it is not a universal pricing formula.
Blue Chip Meme from VC’s Perspective
From the data, Meme is no longer just a small circle, it now has its own characteristics, and as VC, everyone is paying attention to this sector. So, just like investing in other projects, if VC wants to participate in Meme, they must first find blue chip Memes that can withstand market fluctuations and perform stably.
To identify a high-quality meme, we usually focus on several key features: persistence, spreadability, and community activity. A high-quality meme should have long-term appeal, be easily spread, and have a passionate community support. These factors form the basis of a memes success.
For memes that are community-driven or led by a capital market management team, it is necessary to understand the main players behind the scenes. This may include whales or other key stakeholders. Understanding these driving forces is crucial to assessing the potential and credibility of the meme. In the absence of market management, the community plays an important role in the meme project. Their enthusiasm and participation can affect the popularity and market value of the meme. Unconscious collective actions, such as promotion and discussion on social media, can greatly promote the spread and acceptance of the meme. Therefore, the role of the community in the meme project cannot be ignored, and it directly affects the success of the meme.
For this reason, we think the PvE Memecoins proposed by Murad in his Meme Supercycle speech are very vivid, please refer to the two pictures below for details.

Meme is becoming a new battlefield for VCs, which tests whether VCs can keep up with the market pulse. The Degen user movements on the chain also provide VCs with a window to understand user needs. However, Meme does not open its doors directly to VCs. The so-called Supercycle theory is even more likely to make VCs fall into FOMO. The cruel data shows that only a few memes are successful, dont be blinded by survivor bias.
