Scams will always be there and can't be eliminated it seems,
what is clear before joining a project or want to buy meme coins make sure to do some research first it's very important,
What you should realize is that not all meme coins are scams and to determine if it's a scam or not, further research is needed
That's true that research is essential. We should investigate documents, web-site, social media, partnerships and development team before invesing in any token, but actually, I don't think that meme coins worth my time as even if in 10 projects I will find one that is not a scam, it will be luck, but even after a careful research, you can't say for sure, if it is trustworthy or not, so I don't want to spend my time.
