- Meme coins can gain legitimacy and broader acceptance by aligning with charitable causes, potentially transforming public perception and elevating their asset status.
- The shift towards using meme coins for solving societal issues could significantly increase their market value, with predictions of some reaching a $1 trillion market cap and individual values surpassing $10 billion.
Meme coins can find structure and purpose, according to Ki Young Ju, CEO of CryptoQuant. A notable example is Shiba Inu paving the way for mass adoption in crypto, as recently highlighted by CNF.
In a recent tweet, Ki Young Ju shared that meme coins, while chaotic, could find order if used to resolve social problems, potentially elevating their asset status. He suggested that if investing feels like donating, even conservatives might accept them. Donations represent the most realistic path to order.
Meme coins are chaotic but could find order.
If they used to resolve social problems, their asset status might elevate. If investing feels like donating, even conservatives might accept them.
Donations seem the most realistic path to order. I'd buy a @WorldVision meme coin. https://t.co/1E8coiunoy

Responding to a post from meme coin analyst Murad Mahmudov on X, Ju suggested that meme coins could boost their relevance by addressing social issues, particularly through charitable donations. Mahmudov, speaking at the Token2049 Crypto event in Singapore, predicted that meme coins, currently valued at $40 billion, could reach a $1 trillion market cap in the future.
He also projected that more than 10 meme coins could surpass $10 billion in value. Ju agreed with this optimistic outlook but emphasized that meme coins could become more valuable by focusing on solving societal problems.
Ju argued that donations are the path to “order” for these tokens, making them more appealing even to conservative investors who might view their contributions as a form of giving. He highlighted his interest in meme coins tied to charitable organizations, specifically mentioning World Vision, a Christian nonprofit, as an example.
Vitalik Buterin’s Support for Meme Coin Donations
Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, shares a similar view, advocating for meme coin donations as a way to maximize their positive impact. Recently, Buterin revealed that he donated meme coins, including 10 billion MooDeng tokens, to an anti-airborne disease initiative.
He has also suggested forming a community-driven DAO to further organize meme coin donations. Buterin has expressed that meme coins can have a positive effect if they are directed toward charitable causes. His stance aligns with Ju’s, emphasizing that donations can enhance the legitimacy and value of meme coins.
Reiterating a recent CNF update, ShibDev Portal Unlocks Shibarium’s Potential; it was estimated that SHIB prices benefit from developer adoption.
