Meme Coins Stand Out As Bitcoin Rises 11% Amid Market Surge
Over the past seven days, Bitcoin has managed to increase market confidence by rising 11%. This increase started on July 14 and continued to gain momentum. Despite resistance at $68K, Bitcoin's performance boosted overall market sentiment as the bears halted the rally. The sentiment indicator increased from 33 to 74, marking the transition from fear to greed.
Meme coins attracted attention among the best performers in the market. Last week, POPCAT led with a 60% gain, followed by dog-themed tokens; WIF increased by 53%. Other meme tokens, PEPE and FLOKI, achieved notable gains of 33.6% and 33.4% respectively. This trend highlights increased speculation and playful investment behavior in the crypto community.
Outside of the meme coin craze, Arweave (AR) and Core (CORE) showed strong growth, gaining 40% and 37% respectively. Additionally, #OM assets of #INJ , #BONK , #JUP , #RUNE , TAO , and Mantra recorded gains of almost 30%, reflecting general enthusiasm in the market and investor interest in various blockchain projects.
Crypto markets have been very dynamic this past week, highlighted by significant gains in major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and a wave of enthusiasm for meme coins. Although some altcoins have underperformed, the overall market trend is towards optimism and revival. This movement indicates that bull trends may continue if macroeconomic and sector-specific factors remain supportive.
