Crypto industry leaders speak about meme culture: Not selling tokens, but encouraging community participation
A senior Growth executive has made a clear statement: they will never participate in any token sale activities and has called on the community to approach meme culture with a joyful, social spirit. This statement was made on 1/11, emphasizing the goal of building a truly grassroots platform that originates from the community base rather than top-down campaigns.
Meme Culture Orientation: Entertainment First, Not Speculation Mindset
In the context of memes being misunderstood or meme trends becoming popular, industry leaders want to clarify one thing: meme culture should be regarded as a part of community entertainment, not a tool for speculative thinking or viral campaigns.
This representative emphasized that even if the project management team is deeply involved in meme communities, they still expect everyone to maintain a clear perspective: entertainment is the top priority. From this point of view, the community wants to see a genuine ecosystem culture, originating from the user base itself, nurtured and developed by them.
Clear Boundaries: Discussion or Token Sale?
The leader declared they will never participate in any token sale activities. She said: “Even if I have skills in online discussions, I will not participate in any token sale activities, and we hope everyone understands this.”
This message clearly distinguishes between community discussion roles and token sale transactions. The goal is to eliminate any misunderstandings about conflicts of interest, hidden support, or financial ties to token issuance rounds.
Expectations for Building a Grassroots Ecosystem
A broader message from the leadership is to set clear expectations for the community: a truly grassroots platform must be led by the community itself, while project representatives should focus on cultural orientation and discussions, rather than directly participating in token sales or fundraising activities.
This turning point reflects a major industry trend: clearly separating project management roles from direct profit margins, aiming to build long-term trust with the community.
