From Ethereum to Avalanche to the Bitcoin Network, meme coins are significantly outpacing other project types.
Bonk Rises After Binance and Coinbase Listings
Solana-based meme coin Bonk recently attained listings on Binance and Coinbase, attracting liquidity inflows upward of $1 billion at its peak.

It is priced at $0.0000212, down 13.5% today but up 82% this week and 725% this month.
But its recent pullback is not a cause for concern according to crypto analyst , who believes that Bonk is forming “an ascending triangle up against a massive parabolic curve” and suggested that this is highly bullish.
While Bonk’s price has retraced deeper since the tweet, it remains inside MOON’s support zone, but holding above is crucial for its mid-term price action.

GambleFi Presale Meme Kombat Strikes $3.6M
Trending presale surges past $3.6 million after prominent analyst backs it to 10x.

Avalanche’s Premium Meme Coin Coq Inu Climbs 200% This Week
Following the explosive rise of Solana’s Bonk, trend-savvy traders have begun searching other emerging blockchains for meme coins that could explode next. One on the top of the list was Coq Inu, Avalanche’s premium meme coin.
Like Solana, Avalanche has experienced notable success recently, pumping over 100% this month.
Consequently, liquidity has cycled down its ecosystem, causing Coq Inu to explode. Currently, COQ is up 207% this week with a $93 million market cap.
It has also secured a place on CoinMarketCap’s trending list, illustrating significant hype and community interest.
Analyst believes the project has lots of untapped potential, reaching a $100 million market cap without any tier-one exchange listings.
“We tapped $103M market cap yesterday… And still not a single Cex listing,” said Nyce on X.
1000SATS Takes the BRC-20 Lead
In an unwitting turn of events, the Bitcoin Network has also become a hotbed for meme coins and NFTs thanks to the rise of BRC-20 tokens. Currently, the largest BRC-20 token by market cap is 100SATS, a project enabling users to inscribe data onto Bitcoin blocks.
The project has pumped 24% since launching on CoinMarketCap on 12 December and currently holds a staggering $1.59 billion market cap.
However, CoinMarketCap warns that 1000SATS is a meme coin project and that messages are “inscribed by an anonymous team.”
The reason for 1000SATS’ rise is that Binance recently listed the token for trading on its platform.
Since then, it has become the largest BRC-20 coin and climbed into the top 50 cryptos, overtaking formidable players like Render, Algorand, and Aave.
X commentator remains highly bullish on BRC-20 tokens, comparing the BRC-20 ecosystem’s market cap to that of ERC-20’s.
