FAQ
Is a cheaper memecoin a better buy?
No. This is the single biggest beginner mistake. A coin at $0.000001 with a huge supply can be worth more than a coin at $1 with a tiny supply. Always look at market cap, never the unit price.
Why do people search for memecoins under $0.01?
A low unit price feels like more upside ("it only has to reach $1!"). In reality the supply is usually enormous, so reaching $1 would imply an impossible market cap. Ignore the sticker price.
