E44: Inside MemeCon - Talking Memes, Crypto, and Culture with Metafroggy
Summary
If you’ve ever aped into a meme coin, taken an L on a bad trade, or wondered how some of these ridiculous projects turn into full-blown communities, this episode is for you. Metafroggy, co-founder of MemeCon, joins us to break down what makes meme coins so unique, why attention is the most valuable currency in the space, and how some projects manage to keep their communities engaged while others fade fast. He also shares some of the wildest moments from past MemeCon events, including live roast sessions and confession booths where traders admit their worst decisions.
We also dive into how MemeCon started as a simple idea and became the first major conference dedicated to meme coins. Metafroggy explains why these projects are more than just speculation, how they tap into internet culture, and why meme coins might be the most community-driven part of crypto.
