The core logic of competition in the Web3 track is shifting.



In the past, everyone was fighting for liquidity, but now the true winners are competing for attention. This is a fundamental difference.

Meme tokens have become the infrastructure of internet attention. Their cleverness lies in — not creating new culture out of thin air, but reassembling, tagging, and structuring existing online culture. This starting point is much smarter.

While most projects are still burning money to fight for liquidity, Meme tokens win community attention and cultural recognition in the most direct way. This reflects a deeper change: in an era of scarce attention, whether to evoke resonance and a sense of participation is more important than the depth of trading pairs alone. This has enlightening implications for the design of entire Web3 products.

nah this feels like copium tbh... meme tokens winning on "attention" is just another way of saying they're better at casino mechanics lol. reminds me of UST in May when everyone thought narrative was the same as fundamentals

Liquidity schemes should have been eliminated long ago, essentially just hot potato passing. Now I see clearly, meme is the true king. Really didn't expect cultural restructuring to be so valuable... Wait, those big projects still burning money must be so painful haha Community resonance > trading depth, I love this phrase Meme coins really capture people's hearts, no pretenses, just play This shift in logic is quite harsh, the old routines really need to change In the era of attention economy, tricks are useless, only what hits the soul makes money By the way, how many projects still haven't understood this principle...

Liquidity schemes should have died long ago. Now it's just a matter of who can create culture out of it. --- Memes are the real infrastructure; other projects are just burning money, it's hilarious. --- Basically, it's the attention economy. People just didn't understand it before. --- No wonder Shiba Inu could rise; it really hit on something. --- I agree with the perspective of cultural reorganization, but there are only a few who can do it well. --- Is attention scarce? Not really, it's just dispersed. --- This logic should have been like this a long time ago. Feels like I only understood it three years late.

Really, those who are still only competing for liquidity are remnants of the previous era. Meme coins are the ones that truly understand the logic of internet culture; the entire approach has been turned upside down. Honestly, the attention economy should have been prioritized long ago. The group that only looked at trading depth before truly missed the point. Wait, can this logic also be applied to other sectors...

Wow, this logic is really on point. The liquidity approach has long been outdated; now it's all about who can capture people's hearts. Meme coins are indeed fierce. It's not about dreaming up something out of thin air; just repackage internet culture and it blows up. Much smarter than those projects that burn money on whitepapers. Attention is the real scarce resource. Got it. Burning money to compete for liquidity, but in the end, you still lose to those who can tell a good story. That's how Web3 should be played.
