Meme Coins on the Move
Meme coins are experiencing double-digit fluctuations as Bitcoin breaks the $100,000 milestone.
Top Performers
The standout performer is Ski Mask Dog (SKI), with an impressive 50.8% increase in a single day and a staggering 862% over the week. This surge follows the news of a U.S. Congressman endorsing it, stating, "I liked the coins."
Other notable gains include:
- Gigachad (GIGA), up 36%, after being listed on Coinbase and Kucoin.
- Keyboard Cat on Base (KEYCAT), rising 21.8%.
- Michi (MICHI), up 21.3%.
Mixed Results Among Meme Coins
Despite the significant movements, none of the top 10 meme coins have surpassed double digits. For instance, Dogecoin (DOGE) increased by 6.6%, while Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Pepe (PEPE) rose 4.2% and 4.6%, respectively. Conversely, Dogwifhat (WIF) fell 3.5%, and Bonk (BONK) dropped 1.1%.
Biggest Losers
In the face of these gains, several coins faced substantial declines:
- Fartcoin (FARTCOIN) plummeted 26.5%.
- Moo Deng (MOODENG) dropped 19.5%.
- Just a chill guy (CHILLGUY) fell 17.7%.
Other notable losses include Dolos the Bully (BULLY) down 16.5% and Non-Playable Coin (NPC) down 12.9%.
Hawk Tuahâs Dramatic Fall
The most significant loser of the day is Hawk Tuah (HAWK), which saw its market cap crash from $491 million to just $35 million, a 92% drop. This collapse sparked accusations of scams among traders.
Bitcoinâs Surge Explained
This volatility follows Bitcoin's surge, driven by several positive factors, including the approval of U.S. Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), the election of Donald Trump, and changes expected at the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
