"Which CA to rush today?"


With the endless emergence of MEME coins, players are happy to dig out potential "golden dogs". In some MEME groups, players share the CA (contract address) of the MEME coins they just bought. The innovative MEME launch platform has reduced the difficulty of issuing coins. KOLs continue to drive various MEME projects to dominate the screen. PANews also wrote an article analyzing the reasons why MEME is "crushing" the popularity of mainstream coins at the moment.


Although there are only a few survivors among the thousands of newly launched MEMEs every day, how to grasp the potential stocks among the MEMEs that have successfully landed? Is the rise of the leading MEME accidental? What characteristics are worth noting? To this end, this article PANews sorted out the 12 popular MEME coins with high market value on Ethereum and Solana recently and their market performance (the selected targets are the projects with the same name with the highest market value in each chain, as of October 18).

More than 70% of MEME became popular this year, and most of the amazing returns require holding for at least five months


According to CoinGecko data, as of October 18, the market value of the MEME sector has exceeded the $61 billion mark, setting a record high. Among them, 10 MEME coins have squeezed into the Top 100 of the crypto market, including newcomers such as WIF, BONK and POPCAT in addition to veteran players such as Doge, SHIB and PEPE.


The 12 popular MEME coins selected by PANews all appeared after 2023, and most of them are popular projects this year, accounting for more than 70%. And from the perspective of market size, the cumulative market value of these projects has exceeded US$5.54 billion, accounting for nearly 9.1% of the overall market value of MEME, among which POPCAT, Neiro, MOG, SPX and SPX have the largest market size. This is enough to see the market participation of MEME.


From the perspective of the time it takes for the tokens of various MEME projects to reach new highs, it takes an average of 162.7 days, including BITCOIN (HarryPotterObamaSonic10Inu), MOG, SPX and GIGA. It takes a long time, almost at least one year or even more, which shows that MEME that has been verified for a certain period of time is more likely to be recognized by the community. MOODENG, GOAT and Daram all rose strongly to their peaks within a month, with the shortest taking only a few days. This is of course directly related to the current popularity of the community.


From the change in the number of addresses holding coins after the coin price hit a new high, the average increase was 39.3%. Among these MEME coins, the number of addresses of APU and MOODENG were far ahead with a growth rate of 135.7% and 119.9% respectively. In contrast, the growth rates of projects such as BITCOIN, POPCAT and Neiro were not obvious, only 5.3%, 3.2% and 1.5% respectively. This may be related to the listing of mainstream exchanges, the accumulation of sufficient user base in the early stage, and the time point of price increase.


Not only that, these MEMEs basically brought amazing returns. According to statistics, the average highest rate of return of 12 MEMEs exceeded 37,000 times. After excluding the extreme value of GIGA, which was as high as 245,000 times, the average highest increase of other MEME coins was 18,000 times, among which BITCOIN, SPX, MOODENG and GOAT were more eye-catching, while Daram and POPCAT performed relatively poorly. Of course, these rates of return are only based on the backtest of market value data, and there are basically no players who can get all the gains, but some players still get thousands or even tens of thousands of times of floating profits. PANews has previously published an article analyzing the profitable smart money on-chain paths on GOAT and MOODENG.


Most of them have experienced large retracements, and the average holding value has reached tens of thousands of dollars


When measuring the risk control ability of the currency price, the maximum retracement rate is undoubtedly one of the commonly used indicators, and it is also a psychological test for the holder. From the data, excluding GOAT and Daram, which have just become popular and are still in the rising channel, other MEME coins have experienced different degrees of retracement from their historical highs, with an average maximum retracement rate of about 49.1%. Among them, MICHI, APU, MOG and MOODENG have the largest declines, 87.7%, 87.5%, 71.1% and 65.4% respectively, which also means that their holders will face the risk of substantial losses if they buy at high points. In contrast, the maximum retracement rates of GIGA, FWOG, POPCAT and Neiro are all far below the average.


Not only that, in terms of the number of days for retracement repair, these projects require an average of about 23.9 days. Among them, MICHI, APU, MOG and MOODENG, which have the highest retracement rates mentioned above, require more repair cycles, and some of them take hundreds of days, while the repair time of GIGA, BITCOIN, FWOG, POPCAT, SPX and Neiro is only in the single digits. The length of the currency price adjustment cycle will also affect the confidence of holders, and the longer the cycle, the greater the impact.


In addition, judging from the holding value of these 12 projects, after excluding the TOP10 holding addresses, the current average holding value is nearly $9,837.6 (calculated based on the currency price on October 18). Among them, SPX, MOG, POPCAT, Neiro and BITCOIN have the highest holding values, which are $26,560, $17,504, $16,337, $15,120 and $11,297 respectively, while Daram, GIGA, GOAT and MOODENG are lower than the average, all below $5,000. In terms of the proportion of holding value and the highest increase multiple, POPCAT, Daram, FWOG and Neiro holders have higher input costs, while GOAT, MOODENG and GIGA have less.


Analysis of the multiple logics behind the rise of MEME


From simple Internet memes to cultural narratives of tens of billions of dollars, the success of the above MEME projects may bring the following inspirations:


Withstanding the test of time and building a strong community consensus

HarryPotterObamaSonic10Inu


Time is always one of the important tools for testing value, and projects that often go through longer cycles can gain market recognition. Take BITCOIN (HarryPotterObamaSonic10Inu) as an example. This is an abstract MEME that combines various elements such as Harry Potter, Obama and Sony. It attracted attention in 2023 due to its surge. Since then, its price has experienced ups and downs for a year until it began to rise continuously in September this year. During this period, the number of BITCOIN holders continued to rise, achieving a nearly 88.2% increase in one year. SPX (SPX6900) is also an abstract MEME launched in 2023. The story is that an anime girl surpasses the market value of the S&P 500. Judging from the price trend, SPX has also experienced a long period of downturn until September this year. According to the analysis of Ai Yi, an analyst on the chain, the Dev of the MEME and its associated addresses have not interacted with the project for a long time. On the surface, SPX has been completely handed over to the community.


Take POPCAT as an example. The market value of this MEME has exceeded 1.3 billion US dollars without landing on the top exchange. Behind it is a strong community. Although POPCAT's increase is not as good as other MEMEs, it already has more than 77,000 currency addresses, which is also the largest number of holders among the above projects.


Use the wealth effect to increase attractiveness


For many MEME players, the continuous decline of value coins has made them no longer "paid for", and the MEME field has become one of the means for the community to resist VCs. And the higher wealth effect is undoubtedly the simplest and crudest way for MEME to attract funds and new users, especially users with small capital can leverage the extremely imaginative returns at a lower cost.

GigaChad


For example, GIGA (GigaChad) is used to commemorate the legendary Ernest Khalimov. Since its creation and launch, the highest increase has reached 245,000 times, far exceeding other MEME projects mentioned above; MOG (Mog Coin) is the first expression culture coin. Since its launch, it has risen by more than 16,000 times, and has nearly recovered all the losses after a sharp correction. MOG is also gaining more and more supporters as its price rises, and the number of addresses holding the currency is showing a steady growth trend.


Celebrity effect with its own communication power


MEME can also be understood as the realization of the attention economy. As a scarce economic resource, the stronger the ability of a project to gain attention, the more consensus it will have, and the greater the potential for growth. Among them, the celebrity effect often has attractiveness and communication power, and is also an important factor in the success of MEME in the past.


How to discover potential

Apustaja


For example, APU (Apustaja) is one of the more widely used frog emoticons on the Internet. It is similar to the image of PEPE and also has a relatively strong cultural foundation. MOODENG is backed by the Internet celebrity animal Moo Deng, which has great influence and traffic support. According to the crypto KOLRasmr survey, MOODENG is currently the most popular MEME coin among ordinary people in street surveys. However, this type of MEME is often affected by changes in the value of the support behind it. For example, MOODENG's market value fell sharply after the Moo Deng enthusiasm cooled down.


Use the first-launch effect to seize the user's mind


"Being the first is a shortcut to enter the mind." Among many MEME narratives, novel narratives are often more likely to attract players. For example, GOAT (Goatseus Maximus) is the first MEME coin represented and promoted by AI, and with the fame of a16z, the MEME became a hit, achieving a market value of over US$300 million in just over a week, with a maximum increase of more than 24,000 times; Daram combines the nature of BRC20 and MEME, and opens the channel for the issuance of MEME assets, making its market size exceed US$50 million in just one week after its launch.
