We live in an extremely satirical moment in trenches.
IMO, the SOL trenches are dead and they should stay that way for the sake of memes future. I’ve been in this space since 2020 and have lived through multiple cycles: DeFi, NFTs and memecoins. Capital rotation in crypto is not random, it follows a very clear pattern.
The core point is simple: memecoins are not driven by broader market conditions. History proves this. Memecoin super-cycles emerge independently of BTC or macro narratives.
From that premise, you need to understand one thing: a memecoin bull run can start at any time but NOT on Solana.
- 2021: the biggest memecoin launches in history happened on BSC
- 2023: the biggest memecoin launches happened on Ethereum
- 2024: the biggest memecoin launches happened on Solana
Now ask yourself this: why are the biggest memecoins from BSC and ETH still alive years later?
SOL and especially https://t.co/bqZCbMt7cZ turned memecoins into a hyper-efficient extraction machine. It was marketed brilliantly: fast, cheap, normie-friendly. But the end result was the systematic transfer of capital from retail traders to insiders, jews and 20yo kids smarter than you and me.
If you think you “made money” trading SOL memecoins while still being active in those trenches today, chances are you are down far more than you realize whether that’s thousands, hundreds of thousands or even millions. Many people didn’t “lose” money they just donated it to a small group who understood the game better.
Solana’s mentality and trading culture will leave a long-lasting scar on the memes space but history always repeats itself.
We’ve already seen the rotation:
BNB → ETH → SOL
The next 4–5 years will likely look like:
BNB → ETH → X
I’m not particularly bullish on BNB or on CZ as a figure. However, capital coordination, liquidity flows and long-term vision matter more than narratives. CZ has been talking about a “super cycle” for months without explicitly naming memecoins but that implication is obvious. CZ is smart, it knows how to play this game. (history based)
If you’re a memecoin trader and you genuinely don’t care about BTC price action, 2026 will likely be a very good year.
Most current trenchers have never experienced a true 0 to $1B in few days event. But that moment will come again. Just not where people expect it.
Until then, DYOR.
At this point, almost everything there is an illusion.
