People who lose money on memecoins today aren’t necessarily stupid.
Sometimes, they lose because they think they’re smarter than the game.
Crypto investors are more informed than ever.
Everyone knows KOLs can be paid to shill.
Everyone knows insiders exist.
Everyone knows narratives can be manufactured.
Everyone knows early buyers can dump on late buyers.
Everyone knows they could become someone else’s exit liquidity.
And yet…
People still lose money.
Because knowing how the game works doesn’t mean you won’t play it.
You see a KOL start pushing a coin.
You already know something might be going on.
Then it goes +30%.
You start paying attention.
+70%.
Now you regret not buying.
Then your X feed becomes a wall of PnLs.
Someone made 2x.
Someone made 3x.
Another KOL says, “We’re just getting started.”
Suddenly, everything you knew goes out the window.
You tell yourself:
“I’ll just put in a little, catch the next leg, and get out.”
That’s where the problem starts.
Because everyone thinks they’ll be the one who gets out in time.
You buy.
You’re up 50%.
But you don’t sell.
“Let it run a little more.”
Then the price comes back to your entry.
You still don’t sell.
Because you can’t accept giving back a profit you never actually locked in.
-20%.
You go back to X looking for bullish posts.
-50%.
“The KOLs are still holding.”
-80%.
Now it’s the insiders.
The KOLs.
The market.
The manipulation.
Everyone is to blame except you.
Until there’s almost nothing left.
And then you’re forced to face the uncomfortable truth:
No KOL grabbed your hand and pressed the buy button.
The most expensive mistake in memecoins isn’t knowing nothing.
It’s knowing exactly what’s happening…
and still believing you’re smart enough to be the one who gets out before everyone else.
Because in every trade where someone is making money by selling to someone else…
someone eventually becomes the exit liquidity.
If you’re not careful,
it could be you.
