Meme coins are cryptocurrencies that were born from jokes and memes. For example, $Dogecoin (DOGE) started as a joke about a Shiba Inu dog, and $PEPE is about an internet frog. But by 2025, they are no longer just memes, but a whole industry! On X, it is reported that PEPE recently surged by 78% in a day after being listed on Coinbase and Upbit, and its trading volume reached $21.9 billion! DOGE is also keeping up - after a 200% increase in November 2024, analysts expect it could jump to $5. And new meme coins, like $PNUT and $ACT , have even burst into the top-110 by market capitalization after being listed on Binance.
