It’s been a pretty active day for meme coins, honestly. While the broader crypto market had its ups and downs, a few of the usual suspects actually held their ground. Maybe even did a little better than that.
Pepe Holds Steady
Pepe, or PEPE, seems to be sitting comfortably near the top. Its market cap is sitting around $4.69 billion, which is nothing to sneeze at. The trading volume jumped quite a bit, too—up over 54% to $881 million. That kind of movement suggests people are actively trading it, not just holding.
The price itself is small, obviously. It’s at $0.00001116, up just shy of 2% for the day. Not a huge jump, but it’s something. What’s interesting is the number of holders. Nearly 486,000 wallets are holding PEPE. That’s a lot of people, and it probably adds a layer of stability, even if the price does swing around during the day.
Bonk Picks Up Momentum
Then there’s Bonk. It had a slightly better day percentage-wise, climbing almost 3%. Its price is still incredibly low, but the trading volume shot up over 16% to $403 million. That fresh activity seems to be giving it a bit of a push.
One thing about Bonk—almost all of its tokens are already out there circulating. That means there’s less worry about a sudden flood of new coins hitting the market and tanking the price. It’s got a smaller group of holders than Pepe, around 118,000. That can sometimes make it react faster to market news, for better or worse. It tends to be a bit more volatile, I think.
Floki’s Community Strength
Floki’s story is a bit different. It’s not as big as Pepe in terms of market cap—it’s just under a billion—but it might have the most dedicated community. The holder count is actually the highest of the three, sitting above 557,000. That’s a lot of people holding the token.
Its price also went up around 2.8%, with a trading volume of $92 million. It feels like Floki has managed to find a middle ground. It’s not the biggest, and it’s not the wildest, but it has a solid base of support that keeps it chugging along.
So, while these are all meme coins and inherently risky, they’re not all behaving the same way. Pepe’s got the size, Bonk’s got the quick moves, and Floki’s got the crowd. It shows there’s still some diversity, even within this quirky corner of the market.
