MEME coins are cryptocurrencies born from internet jokes, meme culture, and community-driven humor. Often themed around satire, humor, or pop culture, they gain rapid popularity through the viral nature of social media.
👥 Community-driven: Typically no centralized team; growth relies on the passion and promotion of the community
📱 Highly viral: Easily spread across platforms like Twitter, Reddit, etc.
📈 Extreme price volatility: Large price swings, highly speculative and risky
🪙 Low barrier to entry: Usually very cheap at launch, attracting retail investors
