This. And rigged by influencers too. —- ‘It’s a pure form of gambling’: memecoins boom after Trump election Dan Milmo The Guardian “The furore has taken place amid a boom in memecoins, which were valued at about $20bn in their entirety at the beginning of the year but are now worth $118bn, according to CoinMarketCap, which monitors crypto prices. And they are flooding the market place in their thousands. At one point in November, the memecoin platform pump.fun launched 69,000 tokens in a day, according to data from the crypto analysis firm Dune. Experts say memecoins, the latest darling in a crypto field whose true economic worth is endlessly queried, have no fundamental value. “It’s just a phrase attached to a digital coin. There is no value whatsoever,” says Carol Alexander a professor of finance at the University of Sussex. … Sam Baker, a UK-based memecoin trader, says a lot of the coins’ launches are based on internet trends “you have never even heard of” and rely heavily on influencers to push them on a range of channels from Discord to X and Telegram. He acknowledges there is “no intrinsic value” in memecoins and there is no “rhyme or reason” to which ones will succeed.” https://lnkd.in/eRyBHvJC

At this moment in history, we need ethical accountants more than ever. Paul Munter: “I wish to reiterate my firm belief that accounting and auditing matter and our profession is vital to capital formation and capital flows. Our financial markets and our economy rest on the bedrock confidence of investors in financial reporting, which in turn relies upon the collective efforts of all accounting professionals involved in our financial reporting system. Every accountant has a professional responsibility to conduct our work in a manner consistent with applicable standards, rules, and ethical obligations. When you maintain a focus on investors and the public interest in every decision you make, the broader objective of providing high quality financial information can be achieved, ensuring that what you do matters.”
