Whether you believe it or not, we are in a special altcoin season
Because this round of altcoin season is not happening on CEX
But on-chain
Initially, pure meme coins were mostly themed around animals paired with narratives
This type of meme will always exist
The ceiling is still DOGE or Pepe
However, today’s "meme narrative" is shifting towards AI
And I believe this trend will last for a long time
At this stage, AI coins are no longer just simple meme coins
But have combined with real application scenarios
They could even become an important catalyst for Mass Adoption
Unlike traditional meme coins
AI MEME coins are usually supported by actual project teams
Quickly attracting market attention through a cold-start model
Allowing retail investors to participate at low costs in the early stages
This model not only lowers the barriers to entry
But also changes the way previous on-chain projects were launched
It is worth noting that compared to previous cycles
The on-chain ecosystem is now more mature
Several fully circulated projects with a market cap over $1 billion have already emerged
Although the market cap may seem "overvalued" to some extent
For retail investors' funds
The on-chain liquidity is already sufficient to support free entry and exit
So there are constantly stories of retail investors becoming wealthy
More importantly
Previously, altcoins could only list on CEX like Binance as their starting point
But now in this round of altcoin season
Many projects' explosive growth on-chain can leave you dizzy
A complete closed loop of on-chain launch, on-chain trading, and on-chain community
Means that projects no longer rely on CEX to realize their value
But complete the leap from zero to one within the on-chain ecosystem
In summary, this round of altcoin season is a product of the perfect combination of on-chain ecosystem and narrative
It truly showcases the power and potential of decentralization
It not only provides new opportunities for investors
But also opens new pathways for the popularization and application of blockchain technology
