I've noticed a rather strange phenomenon.



On the ETH chain, as the meme frenzy gradually subsided, the ones that managed to hold out in the end turned out to be political narratives—it's as if this is the last stronghold that still belongs to it. Now SOL seems to be following a similar path: after the hype dies down, political memes have instead become the last bastion.

This has made me start to wonder: is political narrative the ultimate narrative in the crypto space? Even when the overall popularity of a chain is declining, can politics still keep things going?

I've always had this observation—Americans aren't as fanatical about celebrities as people from other regions, probably because they've poured all their "god-making" passion into the political arena. Now it seems that this cultural DNA is being replicated on-chain: the vitality and risk resistance of political memes are indeed on a different level compared to other narratives.

Political memes are really thriving; all the other narratives are basically dead, but this one is still lively and kicking.

Political memes are really unbeatable—while other narratives die at the slightest risk, they’re still lively and kicking.

Political memes really are top-notch; they're basically the last stronghold of traffic.

Political memes are indeed resilient, but isn't that just human nature? There always has to be an opposing side in order to survive.

Political memes really are the last stronghold. Other narratives are collapsing one after another, but they're still holding the fort.

Political memes are indeed intense, but doesn’t this also show that our space lacks truly innovative narratives? All we do is rehash the same old stuff, no wonder every project ends up as a political appendage. That said, the American logic of turning politics into entertainment is really brainwashing, and now it’s been copy-pasted on-chain too. In the end, political narratives will still cool down. Don’t put your faith in some ultimate narrative—it’s all just cycles. This is a pretty deep observation, but I think the problem is that—we simply haven’t created anything that can replace politics. What people really need is to pick a side and a sense of belonging, whether it’s a celebrity or a politician, and crypto can’t escape this either.
