RE: The Selective "Evolution" Thread of the Crypto Space from Bitcoin to Memecoins

I do that myself at @tokenfaucet

I wasn't aware of this one. I remembered someone distributing small HIVE amounts a while back (maybe they still do), in a faucet style, but I forgot how they were called. I am not against this, even on Hive. This is a known model which some prefer, and has the benefit of helping decentralization. Even though we have our own mechanism through POB, far more advanced.

they are a membership card in a social club

Any benefits of being in this social club? Other than hoping to get rich?

Someone in here just analyzed the Ethereum PEPE and our PEPE and I think the conclusion was that in the last year real PEPE is up 6X and ours is up 4X.

I guess there is some arbitrage opportunity? Of course, there might not be one if we account for Ethereum gas fees.

I think most memecoins are not market driven. I think one or more whales are manipulating prices at their own will.

Most likely.

I am a realist so I know it probably won't happen. But in my opinion, it is worth it to have a little skin in the hive-engine meme token game.

Maybe... On principle, I won't buy meme coins with coins or tokens that have utility. I've been airdropped some dust PEPE, and because it doesn't have a pair on diesel pool, I've been too lazy to sell it. Probably worth close to nothing (I checked at some point). I am not against earning meme coins if someone prefers them, but not buying them with something with utility.

Thanks much for your thoughtful detailed reply!

Social Club Benefits

AI lists some benefits of being in an online social club or community:

Online social clubs and communities can be a game changer:

Connection: Instantly bridge gaps with like-minded people around the globe. Even the most niche interests can find a home.

Support: From professional networks to hobby groups, the sense of community is strong and often more accessible than offline.

Learning: Exposing yourself to diverse perspectives and skills can massively broaden your horizons.

Convenience: No geographic limitations—interactions happen from the comfort of your own space.

Opportunities: Many communities offer unique job postings, collaborations, or even just moral support.

Apparently there is an "epidemic of loneliness and isolation" that even the US Surgeon General is concerned about.

Based on the videos I have seen explaining the draw of meme tokens, the above makes people interested in being a token holder in a meme token community. The chance to get rich is part of it too, but I think it is more than just that.

Our PEPE

Our PEPE on hive-engine is not financially connected to the better known one on Ethereum. Yet. There is talk of setting up a SWAP.PEPE on hive-engine pegged to PEPE on ETH.

There are 2 diesel pools with our PEPE - with MEME and with HBD.

Finally

I am not against earning meme coins if someone prefers them, but not buying them with something with utility.

Fair enough, and likely wise!

But maybe the utility is in feeling like one belongs to a like-minded group who get some pleasure out of associating with the meme.

Thanks again for this opportunity for interaction here on Hive. We don't always get much back and forth in our posts or replies and it is nice when it does happen!

Ok... I understand the idea of a social club in general. Unfortunately, it seems people are drawn to something like meme coins to build communities, rather than Hive, which is built especially for this purpose.

Who knows? Maybe the H-E meme coins will be a magnet for those who prefer them.

Thanks. I often swap for SWAP.HIVE and I forget some tokens don't have that at all.

This could be a gud idea. Although the "value" of SWAP.PEPE may make sense in its' own way. !BBH !DIY !DOOK
