The ethical implications of using memecoins as currency include their speculative nature, environmental impact, the potential for illicit activities and exacerbation of economic inequality.
One of the key issues is that the value of memecoins is frequently determined solely by excitement and conjecture rather than by any inherent worth or utility. Because consumers and investors depend on stable currencies for financial security, memecoins could cause instability, which could have a detrimental effect on them.
