i briefly mentioned here before as well when the luna first launched

i believe there eventually will be a shift, i just don't know when

looking back i should've just max bid virtuals/luna on launch

hindsight bias

whatever i said here

but i'll also manage my risk and not fullport jic it turns out to be (1)

dyor

thiccy's razor

all the PA can be explained by either a.) market manipulation or b.) insider information.

goat flipping spx is a pretty big deal

leads to further bleeding of non ai memes

i wonder at what point they bounce

as himgajria likes to say

liquidity shift from static memes to sentient memes

static = 60b
sentient = 1b

much more catching up to do

from my observations, the way i see it is

most virtual/luna shillers are analysts in funds or vcs -> more fundamental based folks prefer to position in luna/virtual

maybe they personally prefer something with more fundamentals

most other investors/degens prefer slinging in pure sol memes like your goat betas and usual stuff

seems like two camps to me for now

in this cycle, shitcoin influencers have greater influence than your usual fund/vc analysts simply because of the nature of this cycle

another observation is that most of the current ai memes are actually trying to transition into something with more utility

either by providing bb&b, or integrating the token, or basically any other method that tries to bring value to the community

this is interesting and i believe its due to the nature of ai and how there is tech involved

with tech, one doesn't simply expect nothing like you do w cultish animal memes

community expects some form of value transfer to justify them holding your ai meme against others

this further convinces me that eventually the shift happens to more ownership or utility based ai, instead of pure ai memes: https://news.1rj.ru/str/cryptomumbles/10374

it can be something new, or simply your current leaders like $goat transitioning into a token that does pay per inference

why is a form of value transfer necessary to justify? why can't it be hehehaha funny meme price up like animals?

imo its because ai memes as a whole has yet to go through long periods of corrections and cult building

i dont know if it eventually will, but i do know it is necessary to filter out dead projects/communities, the good from the bad

only after the community has been tested can a marginal buyer be confident in saying, "okay, i choose A over B" without the need of expecting some form of value transfer

hence, i think it explains why current ai memes are finding it hard to find escape velocity above 100m other than goat and luna

people choose goat for novelty and leadership, but what firm solid case can you prove for the other picks? most are just running momentum trades

remember, green candles dont make cults and when price is down watch how everyone scatters
