Is there a good article that explains whether memecoins in 2025 have real use or are still just jokes?

Hi all! I ran into a post on dev.to after rage-Googling “are memecoins still a thing in 2025?” The article didn’t feel like it was written by a robot—it walked through a handful of coins that may actually evolve past meme status. Since I’m in a country where a lot of exchanges don’t list the weird ones early, the info on trading accessibility and utility gave me something to work with. Still not buying $ELON though.
