Meme Coins Boost Overall Crypto Market Cap

Intriguingly, the strong performance of meme coins has also influenced the broader cryptocurrency market. The overall market capitalization of digital assets increased to $2.19 trillion. Shiba Inu and Dogecoin, two of the most well-known meme coins, have been at the forefront of this surge. Dogecoin's market value is currently $16.18 billion, while Shiba Inu's valuation stands at $10.5 billion. 

Moreover, over the past 24 hours, Dogecoin rose by 2.55%, while Shiba Inu saw a 5.45% increase. In the past week, Dogecoin rose by 1.40%, and Shiba Inu grew by 1.5%. These price increases have solidified their position in the market.

Shiba Inu Patterns Point Toward Possible Price Movements

Recent market analysis points to a notable price movement in Shiba Inu. SHIB KNIGHT, a popular analyst, on X (formerly known as Twitter) identified a "W" pattern forming in the SHIB price chart. This pattern emerged after the price fell from $0.00002169 to $0.00001548, then rose to $0.00001885, and later dropped again to $0.00001605.

In addition, if Shiba Inu surpasses the $0.00002 level, the "W" pattern could be completed. This would potentially signal further upward momentum for the coin, attracting additional interest from traders.

Popcat and NEIRO Lead the Meme Coin Rally

Beyond Dogecoin and Shiba Inu, other meme coins have recorded impressive performances. Popcat (POPCAT), Dogwifhat (WIF), and NEIRO have seen significant price gains. Popcat’s value has surged 7.9% in the past 24 hours, while Dogwifhat rose 35.2%. NEIRO, with a market cap of $891 million, experienced a notable increase in trading volume, surpassing $1 billion.
