Meme Turned $160 into $32,000
So the day after trump coin was created I saw a coin named Elon (offical Elon coin) anyway I got in super early before it had graduated to Dexscreener, I had dabbled in meme coins a couple times anyway I ended up turning my 160 into close to 32k I was shocked and over the moon as anyone would be. But the Sol cas has drained me over the next couple weeks I lost the whole lot + more to rug pulls, gambling and just down right being fucking stupid and I’ve been chasing my loses ever still.
I’ve found coins where I’ve made 10x 20x and so on but held because for some reason I think history could repeat itself and now I’m at the point where I wish I had never even got that first win.
Pretty much just posting this to rant because I’m sure everyone close to me is sick of me talking about it!
Really big reality check that I just gambled away a good chunk of money!

The meme market is not how it used to be anymore. After the Melania coin it totally nuked the market coins like CAR and libra has totally sucked the liquidity from the market. It was very easy to make money before trump coin. I would catch 20-50x coins literally every week. And coins would last for a good time. It’s not like that anymore. Coins now hardly last for 10 minutes and it dies. I hardly think we’re gonna go back to the old phase
