#特朗普向欧洲实施关税措施 Why are players all advising you to stay away from meme coins

In this round of the market, meme coins are extremely popular. But those who truly understand the industry know—this thing can teach you three harsh lessons:

First, the market never lacks foolish money. You think you're investing, but you're actually gambling on probabilities. Every pump has someone taking over, every dump has someone cutting losses. Someone makes money, inevitably someone pays tuition.

Second, you might be that "someone." In other words, it's easy to enter, but hard to come out alive. A meme coin can grow from small to large, attracting more retail investors; the more who join early, the more who take the other side. Early investors eat the gains, later ones drink the soup, and those who enter last? They lose everything.

Third, liquidity is always smarter than you. Big players, market makers, project teams—they operate at a pace always half a beat ahead of retail investors. While you're still watching the candlestick chart, the chips are already quietly shifting.

To put it simply, meme coins are a magnifying glass for market psychology. It's not investing; it's a game of probabilities. Understanding this is more valuable than making quick money.

It's the same old story. Early adopters definitely made a profit, but who doesn't want to take a gamble?

Another discouragement article, but to be honest, this time there's nothing wrong. Early investors indeed made a lot of money, my friend is one of them, and he's still bragging. Humans will always be a minority when it comes to making money; most people are just here to give away their money. That's the game rule. Wait, have you noticed that during this round of meme frenzy, Trump’s side is also causing trouble? It feels like both positive and negative news are competing against each other. To be honest, without the role of a market maker, we should just watch the show honestly and not think we can make quick money. Regarding liquidity, there are indeed big secrets hidden. Retail investors simply can't keep up; by the time you understand it, it's already blood red.

Another one advising people not to touch meme projects, but I see you haven't made little money either. Nice talk.

Another cautionary message about meme coins, but does anyone really listen? I see many friends still going all-in. Early adopters definitely profit, but who can guarantee that the next one won't be themselves? That's the charm of gambling. Rather than studying liquidity traps, it's better to honestly recognize one thing—making money and losing money are both probabilistic events, and luck plays a major role. Honestly, those who stand on moral high ground and advise you might be secretly buying themselves.

Oh, it's the same old story again. Those who got in early indeed made a lot of money. The question is, who knows when is the right time to get in early? Another textbook case of cutting leeks, it's just annoying to watch. Meme coins = a game of probability. That's true, but some people still make huge profits. Why advise people to stay away? No matter how right you are, it doesn't help. Retail investors just love to play with this stuff, can't control their hands. The phrase "liquidity is smarter than you" really hits hard, but what's the use of being hit? Next time, they'll still jump in.

actually, let's break this down through the lens of game theory — meme coins are just an asymmetric information problem on steroids. liquidity providers have all the data, you're playing blind.
