Memecoin market is 'effectively over,' says prominent trader

May 25, 2026, 11:12 PM
Prominent Hyperliquid trader James Wynn has declared that the memecoin market is effectively over. In a post on X, Wynn argued that while memecoins will not disappear entirely, the market has become saturated, which will lead to further fragmentation of market capitalizations. He stated that the opportunity to turn a few thousand dollars into millions is now equivalent to winning the lottery. According to Wynn, the current structure more closely resembles a profit model for top participants, and the community has become extremely divided. He concluded that a new meta alone is not enough and that the memecoin market must evolve into a new form.
