The Hidden Fortune of Meme Coin DEXes and the AI Regulation Wave

Decentralized exchanges like Pump.fun and Axiom are generating millions in fees, primarily from meme coin trading. Yet, insiders estimate less than 10% of this volume creates real user value. The rest is speculative noise—liquidity cycling between wallets, rapid token creation, and relentless rug pulls. Platforms profit regardless.

AssetSwap.ai co-founders Yoann Defay and Jérémy Dahan argue this model is unsustainable. Their AI-powered tool aims to inject transparency into meme coin markets, where over 90% of tokens are reportedly scams. "DEXes don’t care who survives," says Dahan. "They charge fees on every entry and exit."

The solution? VibeFi—a paradigm shift combining AI-driven analytics with beginner-friendly safeguards. As Defay notes, technical patterns reveal systemic exploitation: "Clusters of artificial liquidity exist solely to generate fee revenue." The question isn’t whether regulation comes, but who builds it first.
