The field of cryptocurrency research is moving towards a deeper understanding of the unique characteristics and vulnerabilities of memecoin ecosystems. Researchers are developing new frameworks to capture the fragility of these ecosystems, including the impact of social media diffusion, celebrity influence, and speculative capital inflows. The study of cryptocurrency networks is also revealing patterns of concentration and centralization, despite the decentralized design of the underlying protocols. Furthermore, the detection of fraudulent activities such as phishing scams and money laundering is becoming increasingly important, with new methods being developed to identify and prevent these threats. Noteworthy papers include: Measuring Memecoin Fragility, which presents a new framework for capturing the fragility of memecoin ecosystems. Inside Qubic's Selfish Mining Campaign on Monero, which analyzes a selfish mining campaign on Monero and evaluates its effectiveness.
