CZ emphasized at Binance Square that meme coins require a powerful cultural element to endure. Odaily reports he answered questions from retail investors about how to use meme coins and warned that the issue lies in his tweets. He noted that if someone buys a meme coin created based on his tweets, they will surely lose money, and many memes are generated from his posts.

He argued that if you purchased all memes derived from his tweets, you would lose money. If you are a meme creator, you must develop your own strategy. He says he does not know the exact strategy, but believes that a strong cultural element is essential for meme coins to endure. Looking at longer-lasting memes like DOGE and FLOKI shows that they have persisted for years, while newer memes carry higher risk.
