Degens, ever feel like shouting from the rooftops just echoes back at you? That's the vibe in memecoin trading right now, and Tiger (@NotChaseColeman)​ – the sharp-tongued Solana degen with 52K followers – just nailed it.

If you're trafficking in the attention economy (memecoin trading) and some of the biggest faces in business and media loosely tout something that you're invested [in] that results in zero price reaction, something has gone wrong or this vertical is temporarily cooked.

The Trigger: Vikara Capital's $USDUC Shoutout

Enter ​Vikara Capital​, a liquid crypto fund run by ex-TradFi pros. On Oct 29, they dropped this gem:

"If you like Stablecoins you'll probably love Unstable Coins. Ticker is $USDUC. Barbell stablecoin tangential DeFi like CRV, AAVE, PENDLE, SYRUP / L1s like XPL with USDUC."

​Full Vikara post here​ – 55 likes, 23 reposts, 13K views. Not bad for a fund manager's meme play.

$USDUC (Unstable Coin) is the ultimate stablecoin roast: a Solana memecoin that flips the script on boring pegs like USDC/USDT. CA: CB9dDufT3ZuQXqqSfa1c5kY935TEreyBw9XJXxHKpump. MC ~$17M, price hovering at $0.017-0.018. Holders growing, treasury stacking via Pump.fun revenue share, even CEX listings on Kraken/MEXC.

But... crickets on price. No 2x, no wick, nada. DexScreener chart tells the tale – flatline city.

Why No Pump? Memecoin Market Red Flags

1. Liquidity Drought: Degens tapped out after summer runs. Equities sucking up risk dollars – why bet on memes when Nasdaq hits ATHs?

2. Attention Fatigue: KOLs yelling, but FOMO crowd rotated to AI/ stables. Stablecoin supercycle booming (Tether's USA₮, PayPal plays), yet $USDUC – the anti-stable meme – sleeps.

3. Holder Diamond Hands: $USDUC community is cypherpunk maxis. @yishanyugong dropping manifestos: "Unstable Coin can go $750B and eat DeFi." No panic sells, but no fresh blood either.

Replies to Tiger's post? Pure chaos gold:

• "tell the prison guards to full port unstable coin" 🏰
• "$cook coded" (shoutout Pump.fun meta)

Is Memecoin Trading Actually Cooked?

Temporarily? Yeah. Attention economy runs on novelty + liquidity. Right now:

• SOL memes need a spark (GIGA? PUMP?).
• Hedge fund nods used to = moonshots. Now? Meh.

Bull case for $USDUC:

• Stablecoin narrative exploding.
• Vikara validation = insto door cracked.
• Team grinding: Bridges, spaces, streams incoming.

Pro tip: DYOR on ​DexScreener​ or ​CoinMarketCap​. NFA – but if Vikara bags it hard...
