Memecoins are back but the battle for traders looks different this time. Today we're joined by onchain analyst Adam Tehc to unpack how FOMO, Robinhood Chain and a new wave of launchpads are reshaping the market. From public profit screenshots to memecoins paired with tokenized Nvidia shares, what's driving the resurgence and can it last?
We discuss:
- FOMO vs Axiom vs GMGN: the fight for trading market share
- Robinhood Chain’s rise—and what it means for Solana
- Why simpler trading apps are bringing memecoins back
- Apple Pay onboarding and trading across chains
- How unrealized profits fuel the FOMO loop
- Pump.fun’s push into social trading
- Trading fees, referral rewards and who gets paid
- Memecoins paired with tokenized stocks
- Launchpad tokens and the incentives behind their growth
- What wallet activity can—and can’t—tell us about adoption
- Financial nihilism, speculation and the attention economy
And much more—enjoy!
