And Then comes Pepe it comes with a revolutionary idea of Frogs. people liked it and they spread it everywhere and today is one of the top 3 memecoins.
What Drives these meme coins this high? ( Hype)
A unique idea
There is one thing common in these three memecoins and that was a unique idea of entertaining people. Doge was the first memecoin , Shiba grabbed the attention of crypto currency trader by calling itself a dogecoin killer and Pepe being a frog.
So the key is how a memecoin is entertaining the crypto community.
Vibrant Community
The success of memecoins can largely be attributed to their vibrant communities. in my opinion if a memecoin doesn't get the community support it does not matter how unique the idea is or how good the memecoin is it will not catch any eyes.
it's the community that makes and breaks a memecoin. They are the one that helps a meme to spread everywhere and this is how memes grab attention and go up.
Affordability
Meme coins supply is usually in trillions or billions with a cheap price so there comes a psychological impact that someone who is buying think he is getting so many tokens for less money and dreams to get some big gains.
imagine getting millions of token for $10 and then thinking that the token will go to $1. This is the kind of dreams that meme coins holder see.
