I’ve been a memecoin dev on Solana since 2021 before , before WIF, before Giga. I was also one of the first 30 users of . I’ve seen this space mold and evolve in a dozen different ways. Back in the day, the space was different. It was collaborative. Communities formed organically, and there was a real sense of mission and oneness. A true decentralized hive mind pushing culture forward. Now it’s morphed into a pure PvP arena. The shift didn’t happen because the tech changed. It happened because the leadership changed. We went from people like @MustStopMurad, who carried crypto ethos into memecoins, To serial deployers who are satisfied extracting $2,000 at a time and moving on to the next ticker. Our main problem is, no one steps up, but you'd see every person complain. And I’m not someone who calls out problems without being willing to do something about them. The whitewhale was a glimpse into what was. And its proof of what's possible.
