What year is it now? Established meme coins are catching the speculative token rally, leading the altcoin market in a continued frenzy
BlockBeats News, April 16 — Although the highly speculative token RAVE, which surged 58 times in half a month, paused yesterday, the community woke up this morning to find that classic memes from three to four years ago have taken over the rally.
According to market data, the long-standing Bitcoin inscription leader ORDI jumped 70.6% in 24 hours, the former runner-up SATS also surged nearly 30%, and the previous generation meme leader on Ethereum, Neiro, recorded a single-day gain of 34.1%.
Meanwhile, Solana ecosystem memes from two years ago saw a relatively moderate increase, with PNUT, MOONDENG, BOME, and GOAT all up more than 15% in a single day.
On the other hand, project tokens are also competing for gains. The DeSci leader BIO doubled in one day with a current increase of 108.6%, while the NFT platform project BLUR surged 35.4% in 24 hours.
BlockBeats reminds users that small-cap coins in the current market are experiencing extreme volatility, and investors should proceed with caution.
