And the number is expected only to grow. If anything, one analyst thinks at least two meme coins will command a market cap above $100 billion in the coming years.

It is easy to see why: More and more layer-2s on Ethereum and mainnet platforms are launching, offering a cheaper option for launching these tokens.

Despite Tron offering stiff competition, Solana is taking over from Ethereum as the king of meme coins.

In the future, the competition will be cutthroat with the launch of even more performant and dedicated solutions for meme coins. Top of the list is Pepe Unchained, whose presale has seen over $20 million raised.

If was the day more tokens were minted on the Solana meme coin launchpad, even exceeding the boom seen in August.

The sheer number of tokens minted is unprecedented and points to one thing: Solana is the king, and this trend will only continue in the modern blockchain.
