Mr. KEY is a successful Web3 entrepreneur who emphasizes accumulating wealth through a deep understanding of investment targets and steadfast beliefs. He does not chase short-term surges but focuses on long-term value to suppress market noise. He believes that successful investing requires solid research and patience, and meme coins reflect a speculative mindset. His experience teaches that true success comes from stable judgment and the right mindset.

Market Sentiment Shifts
As October begins, a new trend is quietly spreading in the crypto world. Meme coins with Chinese names on BNB Chain suddenly explode in popularity, with overseas players starting to follow suit by learning Chinese and participating in trading. This is different from the previous Meme craze led by Solana—this time, the main stage has completely shifted to BNB Chain.
Creation and trading activity around these types of topic coins are soaring, on-chain discussions are heating up, and the BNB price has also risen significantly driven by market sentiment, making it the second most prominent mainstream asset after BTC.
But a turning point has occurred. The industry fluctuation event on October 11 temporarily heightened market anxiety, and the popularity of Chinese Meme coins cooled down. Interestingly, the competitor that broke the deadlock inadvertently helped promote BNB Chain—during a demonstration, a senior executive from a leading public chain platform unexpectedly used these types of Meme coins in the application demonstration.

Mr. KEY focuses on long-term investment and in-depth research in the Web3 field, rejecting meme coins and viewing the market from a ten-year perspective. He believes that wealth accumulation comes from firm conviction and understanding of fundamentals, warns investors against short-term volatility and chasing hot trends, and emphasizes that a successful mindset is the key to victory.

Meme coins are no longer a joke
Remember when Meme coins first appeared, everyone thought of them as a joke in the crypto world—completely lacking fundamentals, driven purely by community enthusiasm and meme culture. But now? The situation has long since reversed.
In 2024, capital in the Meme coin sector grew by over 500%. Entering 2025, funds are pouring from mainstream cryptocurrencies into Meme coins on a large scale. This is no longer a fringe game for retail investors but a genuine speculative hotspot. The US SEC has also officially changed its stance, reclassifying many Meme coins as collectibles rather than securities. While this sounds like a risk mitigation, it actually sends a signal: these assets are now under regulatory oversight.
One coin can explode to a $27 billion valuation
If we talk about the most insane case this year, $TRUMP definitely qualifies. From launch to soaring to a $27 billion market cap, it took less than 24 hours.

Meme coins like Dogecoin have transformed from community jokes into assets, relying not on technology but on widespread symbolic dissemination and holder consensus. Although newcomers often expect project teams to push prices, true value lies in the community's spontaneous promotion and participation. Meme coins are a product of "attention securitization," where participants should choose symbols they identify with, actively promote, and invest with an entertainment mindset.

Ethereum and Solana each have their advantages in the Meme ecosystem. The former's high Gas fees lead to elitism, while the latter's low Gas attracts speculation but has unstable technology. BSC relies on its user base and liquidity to create a healthy ecological cycle, promoting Meme coins to shift towards more socially meaningful applications, demonstrating the potential for future billion-dollar projects.

A major exchange's life contract just went live, and the confidence boost for the entire market is quite evident. As someone who has been long-term focused on meme coin research and investment, this development also brought real returns to many diamond hands.
Frankly speaking, many projects in the crypto world, especially meme coins, seem to lack the rigorous metrics of traditional finance like PE ratios and income models. But to say it's purely luck-based gambling? That's underestimating it.
People who truly dedicate themselves to research and analysis, those who observe the mentality shifts of retail investors worldwide firsthand, understand the competitive landscape of major exchanges, and follow how a meme trend goes viral and where its resonance lies—these individuals' success rates are far beyond those of blindly guessing based on intuition.
The value of research and analysis lies here: as long as data can prove that your strategy has a higher win rate, it's not gambling but logical trading.
I've actually been talking about this project for quite some time, and I’ve held positions early on. I even added at some key points.

Recently, Meme coin PING on the x402 protocol has become popular, and many are discussing whether its tactics resemble the inscription wave of BTC in 2023. Honestly, it does— and this similarity runs deep to the core.
Core similarity: On-chain data + off-chain interpretation rights
How do inscriptions work? Users send transactions to the BTC mainnet, occupying specific UTXOs, but the Bitcoin mainnet itself doesn't know that this is "minting inscriptions." What truly gives it meaning is the Ordinals indexer— it scans all on-chain transactions and follows the "First is

Wake up and realize wealth freedom? Wake up now
Recently, the BSC chain has been incredibly lively. Shiba Inu projects are sprouting like mushrooms after rain, and various "xx人生" stories of getting rich overnight are everywhere. Buying a coin casually before bed, and waking up to see your account with a few more zeros—this kind of script sounds so tempting.
Every day in the group, there are screenshots: "Made another fortune," "Gold everywhere," "From a few thousand to millions." After seeing so much, who wouldn't be tempted? Fundamental analysis? Not interested anymore. Secondary market? No longer involved. Everyone's only thought is: Could the next hundredfold coin be the one I hold?
But here's the problem—who really loses when you make money?
This game has never been a win-win situation
The crypto market has always followed the 80/20 rule, or even the 90/10 rule. Those profit screenshot you see—either are self-directed and staged market manipulations, or are just showing profits without mentioning losses.
Why? Because these myths are needed to attract new retail investors to enter.
When everyone is in

Today, a certain Chinese Ticker's coin went live with its contract. Honestly, this move significantly boosted the overall market sentiment. For those of us who study meme coins daily (even though we're often mocked as "gamblers"), it also serves as a confidence boost. The meme hype on BNB Chain is still ongoing, and those diamond hands holding on without selling are finally seeing the reward.
Investing research is not about luck
Many outsiders think that projects in the crypto space, especially meme coins, are completely based on guesswork—what logic could there be? Indeed, these assets don't have traditional stock valuation methods like PE ratios or cash flow models, but to say it's entirely decided by flipping a coin? That underestimates this market too much.
My view is: those who truly put effort into research absolutely outperform reckless gamblers.
Here, "research" isn't just about casually reading a few tweets. You need to genuinely understand what retail investors are thinking, how major exchanges are responding, and so on.

Recently, discussions about two projects have exploded in the market—what exactly are $PING and $PAYAI up to?
One is clearly a MEME coin, but suddenly made a high-profile announcement about launching a Launchpad; the other, which was supposed to focus on being a practical tool, is instead engaging in token migration and pool switching. At first glance, these moves look like exit scams, but in reality, there may be a completely different strategy at play.
No one feels secure in a bear market, but we can try to break down the logic behind these two moves.
Why are these two projects taking “unconventional actions”?
To put it simply, they’re both trying to make up for their weaknesses.
What’s the biggest fear for MEME coins? Losing attention after the hype dies down—relying purely on consensus and sentiment can only last so long. Once the market cools off, the price drops like a deflated balloon. $PING clearly realized this; just hyping the x402 narrative can’t withstand long-term pressure, so it’s trying to add a “platform token” identity for itself.
