Meme coins’ mad surge is back following Bitcoin’s halving

Amid cautious optimism, a number of meme currencies are soaring, with a few recording double-digit gains in spite of the typical weekend slowdown. Top gainers in the sector are BONK, FLOKI, PEPE, and SHIB, while DOGE is attempting to catch up following Dogecoin Day.

The reason for the spike in meme coins is that the industry participants are thought to be extremely risky investments. Rather than the core fundamentals, excitement and speculation frequently drive their values. The increased excitement around the cryptocurrency market following the Bitcoin halving has amplified this speculative behavior, leading to rapid price movements in meme coins.

The rise of Solana blockchain’s meme projects, BONK and MYRO, is unavoidable within the craze for meme coins. The chain is notable for its transaction activity and network performance highlights.

Following the 6% increase in SOL price, Solana’s Bonk Inu and Myro are top chain performers. The fourth Bitcoin halving is being celebrated by enthusiasts and Bitcoin staunch holders, and as a result, capital floods into meme coins are driving up major players in the market.

The halving of Bitcoin has caused several meme coins to go parabolic. Meme coins are reporting impressive growth in the wake of the successful April 20 BTC halving and the Dogecoin Day festivities that followed. Considering the typical weekend slump when retail takes a backseat, this is unusual.

The largest gainer is Bonk Inu (BONK), with gains of up to 35%, followed by Floki Inu (FLOKI), which had gains of 19%. Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Pepe (PEPE) are up 17% and 14%, respectively. In contrast, Dogecoin (DOGE), the Bitcoin of meme coins, has only gained 4% on the day, while Myro (MYRO) has surged 17%.

As a high-performance blockchain network with quicker transaction times and cheaper fees than certain other networks, like Ethereum, Solana has grown in prominence. Because investors are lured to the efficiency and scalability of the Solana network, this popularity has now extended to meme coins constructed on the network.

As of this writing, Solana’s stock is trading at $149.86, up 6% over the previous day. Community engagement can be explained by the fact that meme coins are still one of the industry’s biggest assets due to their accessibility, despite their potential as a worldwide shelling point for speculative liquidity. The market capitalization of the industry has increased by 10% to about $54 billion.

Investors should be aware that the meme currency market is likewise highly volatile, which accounts for the industry’s regular undervaluation despite robust communities for individual projects. Because these speculative assets balance between prosperity and uncertainty, cautious optimism is crucial.
