The meme coins on the Solana chain can always bring surprises to people. The most unexpected new coin in the past few days is UFD. After its release on the morning of the 18th, a short In just one and a half days, the market value almost rose to US$300 million, becoming one of the biggest explosion points for meme coins on the Solana chain.
But when it comes to why UFD tokens are so popular, most investors have difficulty understanding its logic. There is no endorsement from the project side behind it. There is no celebrity to support it, and it lacks a strong community. It is just a social experiment of cryptocurrency conducted by a white-haired old man out of speculation or ridicule. So why did it become a phenomenon-level myth of getting rich in two days?
Hold on to the popularity of Fartcoin, an easy-to-spread satirical cultureFartcoin’s name comes from the terminal of truth. The initial task was to write Fart Jokes. Fart Jokes are very popular. It has an out-of-the-circle effect. Elon Musk once said that he likes Fart Jokes. Tesla even built in fart sound effects in the software. As a top AI meme, Fartcoin ranks among the top in terms of long-term transaction volume, with active on-chain transactions and endless imitations.
The narrative of UFD perfectly combines the popularity of Fartcoin and adds irony. A 54-year-old YouTuber and precious metals investor with a silver and gold investment channel decided to create his own meme coin, Unicorn Fart Dust, as a social contribution to cryptocurrency after seeing Fartcoin’s market capitalization reach $500 million. Experiment to verify whether cryptocurrencies are valuable assets. Some netizens speculated that Unicorn was chosen because Musk had previously painted a "farting rainbow unicorn" for Tesla.
At first the YouTuber decided to mock crypto tokens because in his mind , except for gold and silver, everything else is not a truly valuable asset, so he released this meme coin called Unicorn Fart Dust to see how much it is worth.
For meme, the key is to touch people's hearts and triggerresonance. Whether it is memes with their own sense of humor and irony such as "Shit" and "Fart", or classic images such as cats, dogs, and frogs that carry emotional memories, to the play on absurd logic and the ridicule of dissatisfaction with reality, Or conveying the desire for fairness and transparency through anti-rug gestures. These down-to-earth and resonant concepts are often easier to spread and have more vitality.
For example, on November 20th, a little boy of about ten years old made a profit of about 2 after issuing coins and selling them during the live broadcast. At the same time, he made internationally accepted taunting gestures during the live broadcast to satirize other currency holders who were "cut off" by him. Stories of contrasting and black humor such as "Kid Brother" and "Runaway" continue to spread. Community sentiment continued to simmer, and they finally decided to use lapan to teach the "kid brother" how to be a good person. As a result, the token rose all the way, with the highest market value even exceeding 100 million.
Similarly, so as an "old man coin" with a sense of ridicule, the point of UFD's emergence and spread is irony. The more ridiculed and disdainful it is, the more joyful it is when the moment of "slap in the face" comes, especially in a place like cryptocurrency where pulling miracles happen every day, memes that can drive emotions are more likely to capture the market's attention. The more they didn't believe it, the more they wanted to pull the market, so UFD stood out in the first wave of pvp after the market opened.
After that, as Fartcoin was selected into the second batch of Binance Alpha list on the evening of the 18th, UFD ushered in another strong rise, and its market value directly exceeded US$100 million. close. This news undoubtedly injected a shot in the arm into the market, not only boosting the confidence of existing currency holders, but also attracting the attention of more new players.
More and more investors who had previously held a wait-and-see attitude towards UFD, and even thought its concept was "incomprehensible", are beginning to re-examine the potential of this project. They deeply study the pull logic and market strategies behind UFD, hoping to seize the opportunity in the next possible wave of take-off. For a time, the discussion about UFD on social platforms and investment communities was unprecedentedly heated. The popularity of UFD expanded from the original players in the circle to a wider market, creating favorable conditions for its further breakthroughs.
Second creation, second creation, or second creationOn the third day of the UFD fire, the issuer Ron listed his artwork "Bitcoin" on eBay Bubble Gum Machine", claiming that all proceeds will be donated to Susie's Christmas gifts. Ron's behavior may be to use "charitable donations" and the eBay platform toDrain traffic to attract more attention to maintain popularity.
UFD has risen to a current market value of US$200 million. There is still no official TG or Discord, and the publisher Ron only publishes his own live video on his personal Twitter. , expressed in the video his surprise and shock that UFD continues to break new highs, and his growing interest in cryptocurrency. Ron's original intention of releasing UFD was just for satire. He himself did not expect that UFD would generate such great popularity, so he did not spend any energy on the second creation of UFD.
However, investors in the currency circle who are familiar with meme gameplay and ecology rely on their understanding of popularity The keen sense of culture and creativity have already set off a wave of secondary creations with the theme of "Rainbow Fart Unicorn" on social platforms.
Many people have intercepted Ron's live video clips on Twitter and YouTube, and used AI to generate his interactions with the rainbow fart unicorn, as well as various They continue to promote videos, animations, emoticons, etc. of rainbow fart unicorns on social media, showing their confidence and expectations for UFD, demonstrating the creativity and enthusiasm of the community, and forming a consensus of confidence. The community combines the image of the rainbow fart unicorn with the connotation of UFD and the current popular AI, which is more in line with hot spots and trends, promotes UFD to go further out of the circle, and allows more people to understand and participate in UFD transactions.
The continued rise in secondary innovation continues to inject new impetus into UFD. These creative works not only bring more vitality to the community, but also attract more followers inside and outside the circle, making more and more people aware of the unique charm and development potential of UFD. During this process, some netizens discovered that Murad, known as the "Father of Meme" in the English circle, followed Ron, the founder of UFD.
This move is undoubtedly a recognition of the value of Ron and UFD, and has also been interpreted by the community. As a kind of "endorsement", it greatly motivates community members. They are more actively involved in secondary creation, promoting on social media, and exploring more possibilities to break the circle, striving to further expand their influence while maintaining existing popularity.
Are old-school mainstream investors also paying the price?There is no digital currency yetBefore being recognized by mainstream investors, most traders mainly invested in stocks, bonds, precious metals, futures, options, foreign exchange, etc. Precious metal investments were mainly gold and silver. As the saying goes, "Buy antiques in prosperous times, buy gold in troubled times." "Guns and guns." "One ring, ten thousand taels of gold." Gold and silver investment has always been favored by investors around the world and has become the most trusted and favorite asset for established investors.
With the passage of cryptocurrency ETFs and the inclusion of Bitcoin in many strategic reserves, cryptocurrency is gradually recognized by mainstream investors, and more and more recently Traditional traders have begun to pay attention to digital currencies and trade meme coins. This phenomenon shows that old-school mainstream investors are gradually understanding, recognizing and embracing cryptocurrencies, symbolizing the further break of cryptocurrencies.
For example, a few days ago, a 35-year traditional veteran trader began to turn into a cryptocurrency market analyst. This narrative created a 2-hour PTARDIO, the little golden dog of 2M internal speed pass. This, in turn, also shows that the narrative itself of investors in traditional fields getting involved in the cryptocurrency field can become an "angle" to boost prices, and the market is willing to pay for it.
Similarly, the issuer of UFD has been investing in precious metals such as gold and silver for many years. Within two days, UFD surged beyond expectations, bringing huge wealth. The effect really allows people who make traditional investments such as precious metals to see the huge potential of cryptocurrency. This attempt to issue a currency is an attempt to open up new opportunities for elderly and traditional investors. It attracts more elderly and old-school investors to contact and participate in it, opens up greater possibilities for cryptocurrency, and demonstrates the inclusivity of the crypto market. with potential.
In general, the market environment has been cold recently and there is a lack of new concepts and new ways to play. . Against this background, "Old Toucoin" with its satirical culture quickly captured the market's attention and successfully aroused investors' emotions with its unique sense of humor and contrast. Coupled with the recent high popularity of "Fartcoin", the combined effect of multiple factors such as spontaneous secondary creation by the community, UFD created the myth of a rapid surge in market value in just two days and became one of the recent phenomenon-level tokens.
In the future, can UFD obtain more direct celebrity endorsement, develop new narratives and gameplay, or form a strong CTO community and be more widely disseminated? , continuing the myth of high market value? Will this unicorn bring bigger surprises and continue to exceed the upper limit of market capitalization, or will it go silent after the craze subsides? Let's wait and see.
