Memecoins need a hard reset. I haven't seen vibes this down since I started in 2020. The community is miserable and people are openly scamming.
Meme coins need to be eradicated. They are the dredge of cyrpto, and are part of the reasons it took so long to give this space legitimacy.

The scamming, pump and dumps, rug pulls, etc from some coin named $dikkheadwithspoon and the like scared a lot of investors away.

Bought non-KYC bitcoin from an ATM for the first time thanks to this video:



I looked so sketchy. Had on a face mask and glasses before I went in the liquor store. Before you can initiate a transaction with the ATM, you need to do lite KYC via SMS text verification. To do this, I used a secondary phone I bought used with cash that's using this e-SIM mobile service called Cloaked Wireless. With Cloaked Wireless, all you need is an email address to create an account, and you can pay for you plan with bitcoin. There are other services like it. More on them later.

Photos of the ATM I used, and my receipt:

The fee (17%) was highway robbery, of course, but that's bitcoin ATMs for you. This was an interesting experiment. For non-KYC bitcoin, this is the absolute worst option, but it's an option. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I think these ATMs would be useful in times when you need to buy non-KYC bitcoin RIGHT AWAY (buying peer-to-peer can take some time) or you want to buy bitcoin from the p2p exchange, Robosats, but you don't have enough bitcoin to put up as collateral in the escrow account. I've sold bitcoin on Robosats, and, compared to this ATM, my asking premium usually doesn't exceed 2%. <_<

As I mentioned, here are some other anonymous eSIM mobile services: Bitcoin Privacy Resources

It looks like a lot of action is moving over to BNBchain.
It might only last a few days but a few memes are popping off there and helping BNB hold some during this bloodbath.

Every time there’s some green it’s like ppl immediately sell lol

I don’t know what is going on but at this point im believing this guy’s hypothesis:


4yr cycle might be over and alts won’t pump simultaneously; narratives may pump separately over time, like AI/AI agents end of 2024.


Not to mention how crazy the political scene is right now.
