If you buy shitcoins/memecoins you can't just blame all those scammers/influencers for the state of crypto, cause you are part of the problem too.

People love to blame influencers, celebrities or scammers that make and promote shitcoins or memecoins for all crypto problems. But if you also participate in this shitshow and throw money on those coins in hope to make some quick buck or become rich you ain't that different. You are part of the problem. All those guys that make shitcoins would be nothing without greedy fools like you.

You may think "No, I am smarter than stupid people that buy memecoins to become rich, cause I do it ironically and just gamble $20 cause I know it is very risky", but that is probably the same thing 90% of people thought while buying shitcoins. You are just a gambler and like every gambler you have a problem, that you don't want admit you have it. Your problem may not even be financial, your $20 thrown here are there won't bankrupt you but try the same same attitude with throwing thrash on the street. Your one tin can or paper thrown on the street may not be big problem to anyone, but if thousands people do the same it become issue for whole society. Same is with shitcoins, if millions people here and there throw few bucks on some shitcoins or funny memecoins they together make huge issue for crypto. You may think it is not your fault, I do not believe it even is, people will always buy memecoins cause it is part of human nature (gambling and betting games exist since beginning of humanity). Just do not try to play some holier than thou if you do it. Cause it is hypocritical when people shit one memecoins and shitcoins, but still participate in it with no remorse.

I do not say don't buy memecoins or shitcoins at all, but at least have some standards. If you think something most likely is a rug then don't give money to a scammer, they will use it to make more rugs and scam more people. If you think something look promising and quite safe then you can risk some money. But after checking contract, social media of project etc. Don't make it easier to the scammers than it already is. If shitcoin use million emojis and promise crazy gains then you can't say it was worth the risk, you just gambled money away and supported crypto criminals. If some shitcoin or memecoin propose some unique solution and seems relatively safe then you at least have some justification for risk. If you just gamble money on random new coin, not even knowing what it is you have no justification at all, you make crypto worse just like those scammers.
