With the recent listing of ACT and PNUT on Binance and the continued surge in prices, the Meme craze has swept every crypto community.

According to the monitoring of on-chain analyst @ai_ 9684 xtpa, the mysterious whale who spent 15,140 SOL to invest heavily in Pnut/FRED/OPK has seen his floating profit rise to 64.13 million US dollars, with his principal increasing 26 times, and he has not sold it yet.

Even old-line altcoins are trying to take advantage of the Meme. This morning, the official account of Litecoin (@litecoin) posted a message on X saying: "Based on the current market conditions, I now define myself as a Memecoin." The market showed that LTC briefly broke through 83 USDT, with a 24-hour increase of more than 10%.

"If you don't hold Meme, especially on-chain Meme, you can't even feel that it's a bull market now" has become the best overview of this bull market for many "retail investors without cakes".

A bull market feast for Meme players

Recently, a series of news favorable to cryptocurrencies have been released, including Trump's election as US President, the Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts, and Musk's participation in Trump's House Republican meeting. The price of BTC continues to break historical highs, but it has not ushered in a "hundred flowers blooming" alt season. As a result, the sentiment in the community has also become clearly polarized. It can be said that "holding popular Meme coins makes people smile, while holding VC coins makes people cry."

As the new Meme king Murad said, "No matter you love it or hate it. In this cycle, the performance of Meme tokens will surpass everything. This is just the beginning." DOGE's weekly increase is nearly 100% and its trading volume exceeds BTC. Upbit will add PEPE Korean won trading pairs. PNUT has broken through 2.2 USDT and set a new high. The market value exceeds 2 billion US dollars. These phenomena also indirectly reflect the market's enthusiasm for Meme coins. The chat content in major communities is also shrouded in Meme coins:

  • “Will the next meme coin to be listed on Binance be ai16z or Ban?”;

  • “Stud Contracts Are Not as Good as Stud Memes”;

  • “It is not necessary to stare at the opening of new coins. The meme that emerges will have a higher profit and loss ratio when it is used again.”

  • "First screen Meme coins based on the smart money on the chain, then analyze the concepts, market, and positions, how can you lose";

  • ......

The key to investing in Meme lies in community strength and being a “diamond hand”

According to CoinGecko data, DOGE's market value exceeds 57 billion US dollars, ranking sixth in market value, second only to BTC, ETH, USDT, SOL and BNB. In addition to DOGE, there are 12 Meme coins in the top 100 market value, namely SHIB (market value of approximately 15 billion US dollars, ranking 12th), PEPE (market value of approximately 10 billion US dollars, ranking 17th), WIF (market value of approximately 4.2 billion US dollars, ranking 31st), BONK (market value of approximately 2.7 billion US dollars, ranking 44th), FLOKI (market value of approximately 2.3 billion US dollars, ranking 52nd), PUNT (market value of approximately 2.3 billion US dollars, ranking 55th), POPCAT (market value of approximately 1.8 billion US dollars, ranking 65th), BRETT (market value of approximately 1.4 billion US dollars, ranking 77th), NEIRO (market value of approximately 1.1 billion US dollars, ranking 93rd), MEW (market value of approximately 1 billion US dollars, ranking 97th), and MOG (market value of approximately 1 billion US dollars, ranking 99th).

Top 100 Meme Coins by Market Cap

Unlike short-term speculation, when you are ready to invest and hold Meme coins for the long term, you are not only investing in the Meme itself, but also investing in the people behind it. Therefore, the daily price fluctuations of the Meme holdings are not the core, but studying and analyzing the community is the most important. Pay more attention to the average investors, the largest holders, the leadership team of the Meme community, their activity on social media, and the concepts they promote.

As Meme King Murad said, "Some selected Memecoins will have a diamond hodling culture, that is, there will be committed long-term holders." Track these behaviors through on-chain data and analytical tools, rather than just subjective impressions. Look for communities with strong "hodling" culture and diamond hodling, these are worth investing in.

If you want to earn dozens of times the profit, you must first be able to bear the loss of the principal or even zero

To earn tens or even hundreds of times the return, you must first be able to bear the loss of half or even zero of the principal invested in Meme coins. Admittedly, with the launch of ACT and PNUT spot on Binance this week, their prices are unstoppable like "taking a rocket", but they experienced many ups and downs in the early days of their launch. ACT was once criticized as "pseudo AI" and "conspiracy group coin".

In a sense, buying and selling popular Meme coins on the chain is like opening a contract on an exchange, and the invested funds may rise or fall sharply at any time. Therefore, "controlling positions" and "doubling the investment" are both good practical strategies.

In addition, if you hold Meme and have the ability to make money continuously, you must first accept the idea of ​​"selling at a high price to make money forever" and not be affected by the myth of getting rich quickly on social media, or even get anxious. For example, ACT developer AMP previously stated on the X platform that it had distributed, burned or sold all ACT tokens, but did not want ACT to be listed on CEX. In the following days, ACT was listed on Binance, and its price rose more than 20 times in one day. Therefore, "selling at a high price" is bound to happen. Don't doubt yourself too much, adjust your strategy, and look for the next target.

In addition to Meme, other popular concepts on the chain are also worth paying attention to

The biggest feature of this round of bull market is that most of the "get-rich-quick" opportunities are on-chain. In addition to the classic Meme coins, other early projects of popular concepts are still worth paying attention to. Among them, AI-related concepts have a lot of hype space in this round of bull market. According to the popularity of community discussions, several AI-related concept coins worth paying attention to and with steadily rising prices are:

  • Deep Worm (WORM): an AI project that puts the brain of an organism on the chain for human interaction. DeepWorm is not an LLM or AI model, but a real "worm brain" whose neural map is measured through biological research and supported by Marlin Protocol's trusted execution environment infrastructure Oyster TEE (current market value of $12 million, contract address: DwDtUqBZJtbRpdjsFw3N7YKB5epocSru25BGcVhfcYtg);

  • Cryptify AI (CRAI): This project is a stealth launch project of a Web2 AI company. Its vision is to use AI tools to allow users to easily and simply evaluate the quality and effectiveness of influencers on any social media platform, and find the relationship between the rise and fall of on-chain tokens to assist users in making investment decisions (current market value of 6.5 million US dollars, contract address: 0x3F66aE0c8E9Fb57f661aF4Ba8C8445D36ec5d7F7);

  • ......

Although the price performance of many VC coins is weak, BTC has continued to set new historical highs in the past two weeks, breaking through $93,000 this morning, and the bull market continues. Perhaps this is still a good time to embrace Meme coins and the current popular concept altcoins.
