What is a memecoin?
The most well-known of all memecoins is dogecoin, created as a “joke” by its creators due to the wild speculations in crypto back in 2013. However some considered it as a legitimate investment prospect and with a fast growing online community, it was able to reach a market capitalization of more than 50 bil USD in 2021, with an all-time high of 0.74 USD. The massive growth in dogecoin led to overnight crypto millionaires with some investors earning more than 1000% on their investments.
Eventually this has led to other memecoin projects being created with some of the most popular and well known being Shiba Inu, Floki Inu, Safemoon Inu, etc. Each based off a meme or something that Elon Musk tweeted about, and each with a community hoping their memecoin will become as popular as dogecoin and eventually reach 0.01 USD or as they say in crypto “to the moon”.

Why should you trust Gate.io for your memecoins?
The prices of memecoins are unpredictable as they are mainly dependent on community sentiment and can be affected by tweets from celebrities such as Elon Musk. Therefore memecoins are very volatile for investments and prices can crash as quickly as it grows.
