Are you recently also desperately searching for cheap, high-profile meme coins? Want to catch the next big surge?

I understand this mindset. Let me list 5 projects with the highest popularity and still under $1:

🔥 $DOGE — The pioneer of meme coins, with the strongest community consensus and lasting popularity
🔥 $SHIB — Positioned as "Dogecoin killer," expanding from tokens to NFT and blockchain gaming ecosystems
🔥 $FLOKI — Betting on the metaverse and blockchain gaming sectors, with strong trend-following ability
🔥 $PEPE — Frog-themed meme coin, with a sizable user base
🔥 New Dark Horse — Incorporates multiple hot concepts, supported by several top exchanges, quite active

But here’s a cold splash of water.

The real issue isn’t what these 5 coins are, but how you pick the one that will finally make money out of thousands of low-priced coins. Relying on recommendations from netizens? Market hype? Or storytelling ability?

Honestly, those stories of sudden surges you see are very likely carefully crafted long ago. In an information-asymmetry market, blindly following the trend is like feeding bullets to others.

So the key question is — instead of desperately searching for "100x coins," learn how to verify the real data of a project first. On-chain activity, actual liquidity, ecosystem health — these are the underlying logic that determines a project’s prospects.

Stories of boasting in a bull market are everywhere, but those who truly survive cycles and hold onto profits are often not the ones making quick money by listening to stories, but those who learn to analyze and judge on their own.

The key is one sentence: finding good projects is important, but learning to identify projects yourself is the core skill for long-term profit. Keep your analytical tools tight, don’t just dance around with coin prices.
