Pepe, WIF, Bonk minted millionaires: will Poodlana be next?
-
Meme coins have accumulated over $50 billion in assets.
-
The most popular tokens are the likes of Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and Dogwifhat.

Poodlana aims to be the next big thing in the meme coin industry.
Turns out, the easiest way of becoming a millionaire recently has not been investing in private equity or stocks. Instead, many people have turned a few thousands of dollars into millions by investing in meme coins like Pepe, Dogwifhat (WIF), and Bonk.
Meme coins have soared
Data by CoinGecko shows that meme coins have a combined market cap of over $50 billion, making them bigger than some well-known companies like VICI Properties, Archer Daniels Midland, Lululemon, and Rockwell Automation.
Traditional meme coins like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu lead the market cap ranking followed by newer brands like Pepe, Bonk, Brett, Popcat, Cat in a dogs world, and Mog Coin.
Pepe has a market cap of over $4.7 billion while WIF has a valuation of over $2.3 billion. Bonk, Brett, and Popcat are valued at more than $769 million.
While the real number of millionaires minted by these tokens is not known, analysts believe that it could be in the thousands. For example, an investor who bought WIF tokens worth $10,000 in January 2024 has turned the figure to over $370,000.
Similarly, an investor who bought Popcat tokens worth $50,000 in January 2024 would now have $9.3 million since the token has gone parabolic.
These tokens have soared over time because of their popularity among the day trader community. They are mostly cheaper than big coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum, meaning that one can buy more. In Popcat’s case, the token was selling for just $0.0043 earlier this year while Bitcoin was trading at over $45,000.
Poodlana could be the next big thing
A look at the meme coin industry shows several important themes. The industry started with dog-themed tokens, which are still the dominant players. These tokens include the likes of Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and Floki.
Cat-themed tokens like Popcat and Cat in a dogs world have also done well. Political tokenslike MAGA and MAGA Hat have also minted millionaires this year.
Poodlana, an upcoming crypto token could be the next big thing in the crypto industry as evidenced by its token sale. The developers have raised over $2.8 million in funds in the past three weeks, making it the fastest-growing meme coin in the industry.
Poodlana aims to disrupt the dog-themed token in three ways. First, unlike Shiba Inu and Floki that are based on Ethereum, it will be a Solana token. Solana has emerged as an important player in the meme coin industry because of its low fees and faster speeds.
Second, Poodlana is based on Poodle, a well-known dog brand in Japan and other Asian countries. Finally, it has positioned itself as a fashion icon, comparing itself with well-known fashion brands like Hermes.
Poodlana’s approach to its token sale is different from other cryptocurrencies. For one, its token sale will only go on for 30 days and its token will start trading 30 minutes after the token sale ends. Its pre-sale token price will continue rising during this time, meaning that earlier buyers will get more tokens. You can buy the Poodlana token here.

WisdomTree Europe Launches XRP ETP
ETF issuer WisdomTree’s European division just announced a new ETP based on XRP. This product is currently available in four EU countries, which has led XRP’s price to jump slightly.
ETPs are a common issuer strategy to earn revenue without ETF approval, but Europe will not necessarily approve one even if the US does so.
WisdomTree’s XRP ETP
WisdomTree, one of the Bitcoin ETF issuers in the US, announced that its European branch is offering an exchange-traded product (ETP) based on XRP. This new product is currently available in Germany, Switzerland, France, and the Netherlands. A growing number of issuers have filed for an XRP ETF, but WisdomTree is taking a slightly different tack.
“The WisdomTree Physical XRP ETP offers a simple, secure, and low-cost way to gain exposure to XRP, one of the largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. Backed 100% by XRP, XRPW is the lowest-priced XRP ETP in Europe, providing direct spot price exposure,” the announcement claimed.
The possibility of an official XRP ETF is growing with the current bull market, and Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse considers it “inevitable.” Still, it hasn’t happened yet, and ETP offerings allow issuers to somewhat address customers’ requirements. BitWise, which has also filed for an XRP ETF in the US, recently acquired a European ETP issuer to enter the same market.
WisdomTree, however, is no stranger to this market strategy. In May this year, it won approval to offer ETPs based on Bitcoin and Ethereum to British investors.
The UK has not yet approved a full ETF for either of these assets, but WisdomTree still gained market access. Even a fraction of the XRP market could also prove lucrative; the asset’s value spiked today.
WisdomTree Europe’s strategy page does not describe any further actions upon full approval. Even if the US approves an XRP ETF under the SEC’s new leadership, that won’t necessarily benefit WisdomTree’s European branch. For now, these ETPs built on XRP will have to suffice for this market.
