And so there's this whole ecosystem of meme coins.
podcast-host
Meme coins, there's this whole basically world of people who basically I mean, you know, some of it's people having fun.
podcast-host
By the way, like an early meme coin, I think Ben was Dogecoin, right?
podcast-host
Right, which was basically, you know, basically it was a it was a meme coin where it's it was the do the doge meme, the dog, the famous internet dog.
podcast-host
Yeah.
podcast-host
And then then again, there was no underlying value to it other than other than just the fact that it was it its name was associated with the dog.
podcast-host
Now, you know, the underlying value thing is tricky though.
podcast-host
It it's it's 'cause it's it's true, there's no underlying utility.
podcast-host
But having said that, like once a meme coin is worth something, it actually is a form of money.
podcast-host
Yeah.
podcast-host
And so there there's a community people uh so there's a community of people online who basically just like for fun, they look for the next, you know, meme coin, they look for the next meme and then they look for the associated coin and they basically try to run it and try and try to try to rise it.
podcast-host
And by the way, some of them make money on that and some of them, you know, it's like day trading, some people lose a lot of money.
podcast-host
And then there there is a dark underbelly, there are scammers and there, you know, there's sort of networks of people who are doing, you know, pump and dump schemes, which is, you know, a you know, s the time honored tradition that happens in the stock market and happens in every market that's ever existed.
podcast-host
But you know that that definitely exists.
podcast-host
And then there are also websites, and I I won't name them and we're not associated with them, but there are websites that will make actually make it now very easy to create beam coins.
podcast-host
And so very easy.
podcast-host
Very easy.
podcast-host
Like, you know, point, point, and click.
podcast-host
And so there's there's, you know, there's like, I don't know what the number is, tens of thousands or something of new meme coins being generated every day right now.
podcast-host
So, you know, so there's there's there's this thing happening.
