Dogecoin Leads Meme Coin Dive as Geopolitical Tensions Slam Crypto Market
The top meme coin by market cap, Dogecoin, is diving lower amid a broader market sell-off, dropping nearly 6% in the last 24 hours as tensions between Israel and Iran flare following Israel’s airstrikes late Thursday.
The dog-themed meme coin leader is now trading below $0.178, down 23% over the last month and more than 75% from its all-time high of $0.73 in 2021.
The meme category as a whole is underperforming major assets, dropping 9.5% in the last 24 hours compared to 2.6% and 8% for Bitcoin and Ethereum, respectively, according to data from CoinGecko.
Those meme coin losses are highlighted by most of the majors, like Ethereum-based Pepe, which has dropped 10.8% during the same time frame. Solana’s top meme coin performers, like Fartcoin (FARTCOIN), Bonk (BONK), and Dogwifhat (WIF) have each dropped more than 9%.
The Fartcoin drop has led to a notable odds shift for Myriad Market’s Fartcoin flash market, which asks predictors whether or not the flatulence-themed meme coin will trade above a $1.3 billion market cap come Saturday evening.
Now, odds of that taking place trade around 14% compared to around 51% on Thursday afternoon, signaling predictors may not be that confident in a quick turnaround for the meme coin market.
