Leading meme coins like Dogecoin (DOGE), Shiba Inu (SHIB), and PEPE are all seeing declines. Even with positive news for Ripple and Solana, the meme coin sector remains unstable and continues to struggle.
Recent developments in the global cryptocurrency market have sparked optimism. Bitcoin (BTC) has stayed strong above $66,000, despite concerns from the Mt. Gox Bitcoin selloff. Additionally, the market sentiment has improved due to the expected resolution of the Ripple-SEC lawsuit and the SEC’s recent decision to classify Solana (SOL) as a non-security.
Memecoins Struggle Despite Broader Market Optimism
Despite a generally positive outlook in the cryptocurrency market, with Bitcoin (BTC) holding steady above $66,000 and improved sentiment from news like the Ripple-SEC lawsuit resolution and the SEC’s classification of Solana (SOL) as a non-security, meme coins are facing significant declines.
In the past 24 hours, BTC has seen a slight drop of around 1%. During this period, leading meme coins, including Dogecoin (DOGE), Shiba Inu (SHIB), PEPE, Dogwifhat (WIF), and Bonk, have struggled to sustain their recent gains. Although the broader market sentiment remains upbeat, the meme coin sector is experiencing notable losses.
Memecoins, which had previously garnered significant attention in 2024, are now witnessing a decline. Dogecoin (DOGE) and other top meme coins are down by about 3% today, and over the past week, these coins have dropped by up to 12%.
Meme Coins Struggle Amidst Market Recovery Efforts
The cryptocurrency market is trying to recover, but the rebound hasn’t fully materialized. Two of the top five meme coins are facing double-digit losses. Dogwifhat (WIF) has declined over 4% in the past 24 hours and 12% over the past week. Similarly, Bonk has lost more than 8% in the last week and 4% in the past 24 hours.
Dogecoin, the largest meme coin by market cap, has dropped approximately 3.28% in the last 24 hours. Shiba Inu has also experienced a decline of 1.36% in the same period. PEPE, another popular meme token, has seen a notable decrease of over 4% in the past day and a significant 10.74% drop over the week.
Despite broader market efforts to rebound, the meme coin sector has not yet shared in this positive momentum, highlighting ongoing volatility and changing investor sentiment.
