If your memory of MeMe is still just a zoo, then you're way behind.
Previously, most MeMes were from a zoo, such as pepe, wif, doge, shib, bonk. Besides these familiar ones, there are actually many other zoo MeMes with a lower market value than them.
Recently, new categories of MeMes have also emerged.
1) AI MeMe
The most typical ones are led by Goat and ACT, both of which have already reached high market values. In the past month, a large number of AI MeMes have also emerged. As a new phenomenon among MeMes, the wealth creation effect is even more pronounced. New AI MeMes are expected to keep emerging because AI is constantly expanding its boundaries and new capabilities are coming in. This needs to be closely monitored. For example, Sitcom, Moe.
2) Counter Types
This type of MeMe is not inherently confrontational, but they all have a tragic story, being harmed by centralized institutions or founders, which has sparked a unified resistance from the community. For example, Neiro and ACT, which are already on Binance, and typical representatives that are not on Binance include eliza and lester. This type of MeMe has its own attributes; for example, eliza is the mascot of ai16z. However, the market prefers it to be labeled as a counter type. Since Binance has already had two of these, the market's recognition of this type is also very strong.
3) Desci
Desci can be said to be a newly emerging niche field; it can be considered a track that combines the gameplay of MeMe. This niche area is easily accepted by those who originally researched projects because it has inherent value and significance. Undoubtedly, the most worthwhile purchases in this track are rif and scihub.
4) Cultural and Spiritual Types
This type of MeMe represents a certain spirit or cultural attribute behind it. Murad particularly likes this type of MeMe, and most of his selections are from this category, including his favorite spx6900. Recommended are UMad, EVAN, Shoggoth.
5) Popular Elements from Douyin
Recently, there is a type of MeMe that features very popular elements and content from TikTok, which is not visible to those of us who commonly use Twitter; however, it represents the cultural identity of the new generation of young people. The most typical example is chillguy. The MeMes from Douyin will also have significant overlaps with cultural and spiritual types, such as lockin sigma.
6) Correspondence to Specific Events/People/Things
For example, Fight, Pnut, Terminus, etc. These cannot be mass-produced, so their numbers are relatively limited, and the ones that exist are quite well-known.
7) Artists and Artwork
After Bome benefited a large number of people, the MeMe of artworks is also very attractive, and MeMes with artist labels will also get a glance. However, apart from Bome and ban, there don't seem to be many notable MeMes.
8) Mascots
The MeMe of mascots is most representative of luce, while the Bitcoin mascot bitcat has experienced significant ups and downs, and the Litecoin mascot Lester is tagged as a counter type. Other mascots have also made their mark. If you're buying, consider luce.
