Standing at the forefront of the Meme trend, how did Ben become a cryptocurrency legend from an unknown person?

How did Ben become a cryptocurrency legend from obscurity by leading the Meme trend?

Once again, the story could have ended: someone released a token, and the token went to zero.

But a turning point appeared because something happened on May 8:

• 4.5BTC night market quote video analysis
• What is the problem with the current peak game of players less than 3 ‰ of Steam?
• Axie Infinity, a cute blockchain game

BEN then skyrocketed. Bitboy continued to tweet in support of BEN and officially joined the “team” on May 9:

Although Ben had promised that BEN was his lifelong project, he handed it over to Bitboy in less than 72 hours.

Not only that, but just a few hours later, Ben announced his new project…

PSYOP Presale

That day, Ben announced the PSYOP presale. At first, he used BEN’s success to gain reputation.

In one hour, he raised over $1 million. By the end of the presale, a total of $6.9 million was raised.

Then, he tweeted more in all caps, and the huge success of the presale caused all crypto twitter to talk about him. This, in turn, led to more FOMO.

No matter how you look at Ben, he is a master of attention games. He used the PSYOP fundraising wallet to buy a Milday, which scared the community: “He is using presale funds for personal consumption.”

In my opinion, he could have used another wallet to operate; but he didn’t, which may be another strategy to attract attention.

Happy Ending?

Will the ending of this story be a Happy Ending or a complete disaster? I tend to lean towards the latter as there are almost no signs that everything will be successful.

Regarding Ben’s success, Ben sees it as proof of his own abilities, but Ben’s success may mainly be attributed to Bitboy’s involvement and influence. Ben’s achievement is in making contact with Bitboy.

Attention games will have an end, many precedents of NFTs and memecoins prove this. Attention will eventually shift. Ben may buy another 10 Miladies, but the crypto market will forget about him at some point, as it always does. Ben and his presale’s biggest advantage is using attention, but this may also be the reason for their eventual demise.

Nevertheless, Ben’s story will go down in history. It once again shows that the crypto world is about attention, and sometimes the dice will fall unexpectedly.
