Viewpoint: Memecoins are “single-cycle trades”; do not develop long-term holding dependence
PANews reported on September 23 that DeFi researcher Ignas posted that memecoins are “single-cycle trades”: investors can trade them but should not hold them long term. WIF was a representative memecoin of the previous cycle, but its price performance and market attention have both now declined significantly. Once a memecoin loses market attention, it often means the market trend has ended; FARTCOIN faces a similar situation. DOGE is one of the few exceptions to have spanned two cycles, but it is no longer a strong asset at present. The short life cycle of memecoins differs from that of Bitcoin, which can continuously generate new market narratives. Ignas also reminded investors not to develop long-term holding dependence on memecoins such as ZCAT and CASHCAT.

The following is analysis, separate from reported facts. Verify important claims independently.
WIF, FARTCOIN, DOGE, ZCAT, CASHCAT, and other memecoins: the researcher’s negative assessment could weaken some market participants’ willingness to hold them, but a single viewpoint is usually unlikely to change price trends independently.
Why it matters to readers
Assets of interest: WIF, FARTCOIN, DOGE, ZCAT, CASHCAT, and other memecoins. Observation period: short term
Risks and unknowns
Whether the trading volume, liquidity, and social attention of the relevant memecoins continue to decline
Whether Ignas’s original post provides further data or a complete argument
Whether WIF, FARTCOIN, or other such assets develop new narratives or receive capital inflows
Conditions that would reverse the assessment of WIF, FARTCOIN, DOGE, ZCAT, CASHCAT, and other memecoins: the relevant tokens regain sustained attention, liquidity, and trading activity, or develop a new narrative capable of continuing across cycles.
