Picture this: you're gone, and some random degen trader decides to launch a memecoin in your honor—then actually emails your mom about it. Sounds absurd? Welcome to the memecoin era.

This scenario isn't just dark humor anymore; it's becoming part of crypto culture. Anyone with a wallet and zero shame can mint a token, slap a face on it, and call it a project. Your grandma, your ex, your pet—they're all potential memecoin subjects. The barrier to entry? Zero. The barrier to scamming people? Also zero.

The real joke is how many people still fall for it. Every other day, another meme token launches promising moon missions and rug-proof mechanics (lol). Meanwhile, the actual degens behind these projects are just trying to exit liquidity before everyone catches on.

This is what happens when memecoins stop being jokes and become a legitimate pump-and-dump playbook. The crypto space is wild enough without turning deceased people into trading vehicles, but here we are.

Fuck, that's really messed up. Minting coins for the dead and having to email his mother—how unethical can it get?

Really, now everything can be tokenized, even the dead can't escape. This wave of crypto is truly incredible. --- Anti-chicken mechanism haha, politely called innovation, harshly called scam plus performance art. --- Sending an email to mom is really the best. I don't even dare to register a wallet with my real name anymore. --- Zero threshold is the most terrifying thing, meaning any project team can do whatever they want, trial and error at zero cost. --- To be honest, degen culture has grown wildly out of control, no one manages it, no rules, just a casino. --- Pumping and dumping has become routine, like a script, happening every few days. --- You guys are really good at playing. Not even grandma's pets are spared. Are you treating memecoin as a prank tool? --- The worst part is that some people still believe in anti-chicken mechanisms, losing money and feeling justified. --- The deceased have become trading tools. This is no longer a joke; it's reality.

Haha, this is really outrageous. Creating coins for the deceased and then notifying the family via email—this is a brilliant idea.

Laughing out loud, sending tokens to dead people is truly outrageous. When did the crypto world become like this?

It's truly unbelievable—sending a coin-minting email notification to the deceased's family. How outrageous does it have to be to come up with that... But to be honest, I've seen even more outrageous things before.

That's why I still prefer to hodl things with real utility; memecoins have been played out long ago.
