Several factors are currently fueling optimism in the crypto market, even for popular dog-themed meme coins like Dogecoin and others inspired by Elon Musk.
Dog-Themed Meme Coins on the Rise
Dog-themed meme coins are gaining popularity, following the impressive growth of Dogecoin (DOGE), which has reached a three-year high. Dogecoin's price surged to $0.29, reaching its highest level since October 30, 2021. Over 24 hours, it rose by 27% and traded at $0.26, according to CoinGecko data.
Political Winds of Change
The recent re-election of Donald Trump and a potential “red wave” of Republicans in Congress have boosted investor confidence. Expected corporate tax cuts and deregulation are creating favorable conditions for risk assets, especially in sectors sensitive to regulatory shifts.
Trump has promised to support Bitcoin mining and to adopt a more lenient approach to crypto regulation, contributing to a positive outlook for the industry.
At the same time, a 25-basis point rate cut by the U.S. Fed has boosted market optimism, benefiting sectors like real estate and utilities, which are sensitive to rate changes. Uncertainty remains about future rate cuts, as new tariffs under Trump’s administration could push inflation higher.
The Influence of Elon Musk and the Dog-Themed Meme Coin Frenzy
Dog-themed meme coins are also benefiting from the prospect of a close connection between Tesla CEO Elon Musk and Trump. Musk’s support for MAGA-related agendas during the campaign stirred interest across social media and among crypto investors. This trend led to a rally in coins associated with Musk’s image, including Dogecoin and others, as retail investors continue to buy into the latest memes.
Ethereum Meme Coin Shiba Inu Gains Momentum
The Ethereum-based meme coin Shiba Inu (SHIB) ranks close behind Dogecoin with a 26% increase over the same period. SHIB, launched in August 2020 by an anonymous developer known as Ryoshi, is ranked 11th by market capitalization. Created as a decentralized, community-driven alternative to Dogecoin, SHIB gained popularity thanks to influencer support. Its ecosystem now includes ShibaSwap, an NFT project, and tokens such as Leash and Bone.
Other Meme Coins in the Race
Floki Inu (FLOKI) saw a 20% increase in the last 24 hours, reaching a market cap of $1.8 billion. However, it still remains 50% below its June 5 peak of $0.0003449. Floki, launched in June 2021 and inspired by Elon Musk, was named after his Shiba Inu puppy. Initially just a meme coin, Floki now boasts an ecosystem that includes a metaverse game, a crypto educational platform, and an NFT marketplace.
Meanwhile, Dogelon Mars (ELON) and Baby Doge Coin (BABYDOGE) rose by 17% and 11% over 24 hours but remain 94% and 57% below their all-time highs, respectively. The ELON token combines space exploration themes with the Doge meme and attracts interest with its narrative of a “mission to Mars.”
On the other hand, Baby Doge Coin focuses on community engagement and charitable projects, particularly animal welfare, and promotes itself as a symbol of social good in the crypto space. Both coins have gathered dedicated communities and aim to bring unique value to the meme coin landscape.
