“Just like the early days of the internet with animated gifs, new technologies often look like a toy but evolve into something much more powerful over time,” he said. ๐ค
“We should be open-minded about where memecoins are going, even if some are silly, offensive, or even fraudulent today. Memecoins are a canary in the coal mine that everything will be tokenized and brought onchain.” ๐จ
