The Retroactive Decryption Trap: Why Post-Quantum Upgrades Can’t Save Your Past Privacy

In the bull market cycle of 2021-2022, the Shiba Inu meme coin made waves in a 
way that changed the face of meme coins forever. This came after Dogecoin’s 
initial 36,000% rally, and Shiba Inu followed with an over 1,000,000% rally. 
Naturally, this has led to the search of the meme coin that will replicate 
Shiba Inu’s move and so far, the verdict has been that it will be the PEPE 
meme coin. One analyst deep dives into this, elaborating on why PEPE could 
pull a similar stunt. Why PEPE Is The Shiba Inu Of This Cycle Crypto analyst 
Rexha took to the X (formerly Twitter) platform to discuss the current meme 
coin market and what investors could expect to come from it. Starting out, 
they draw out a parallel between the SAFEMOON and active Solana traders chart, 
showing a similarity between the two. For context, SAFEMOON was one of the 
meme coins from 2021 that saw a massive run, but eventually turned out to be a 
scam. Related Reading: The Last Time XRP Made This Move Against Bitcoin, It 
Led To A 500% Increase To $3.3 Rexha pointed out that investors are often 
looking for the next big thing, as was seen back in 2021 after the Dogecoin 
and Shiba Inu rallies on the Ethereum blockchain. Traders had then moved to 
‘cheaper’ blockchains in a bid to chase the next runner, leading to a lot of 
scams, which the analyst says culminated in SAFEMOON on the BNB Chain. 
Eventually, once the scams became too much and many traders were used as exit 
liquidity, attention shifted back to the meme coins that began the run. At the 
time, it was Dogecoin and Shiba Inu, as traders realized they were a ‘safer’ 
bet. This time around, though, it is not Dogecoin and Shiba Inu kickstarting 
the meme coin season and leading the charge. Instead, it was the likes of PEPE 
that had pumped on the Ethereum blockading, according to the analyst. The move 
to the Solana blockchain, Rexha explains, was the result of traders trying to 
chase new runners on a “cheap and fast” chain. However, with the advent of 
projects such as PumpFun sucking a fair amount of liquidity out of the market, 
the Solana ‘trenches’ have now mostly died out. Related Reading: Ripple 
Founder Pivots $1 Billion From XRP Fortune Into New Investment As the trend 
comes full cycle once again, the crypto analyst expects traders to move back 
to the meme coin that started it all, and that is PEPE in this place. Rexha 
calls this a “Return to Quality” on the Ethereum blockchain, predicting that 
PEPE’s second run will be similar to that of Shiba Inu’s second run. The 
analyst also warns that with this PEPE’s second run, traders will be lured 
back in with the hopes of having another run on other blockchains, such as a 
PumpFun “V2”. However, this is expected to be a “Final Extraction” event, so 
it is imperative that traders be careful when engaging with meme coins.
