Memeinator in focus as most meme coins beat Bitcoin in 2024
-
Bitcoin and Ethereum have jumped by over 50% this year.
-
Meme coins like Floki, Pepe, and Book of Meme have done much better.
-
Memeinator is one of the fastest-growing names in the industry.
Many meme coins are doing better than big cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Ripple in 2024. Bitcoin and Ethereum have jumped by more than 50% this year while Ripple has dropped by over 20%.
Meme coins are thriving
On the other hand, meme tokens like Floki, Book of Meme, and Pepe have done much better. Floki has soared by over 450% this year while Pepe has jumped by over 700% in the same period.
The same is happening among other meme coins like dogwifhat, Bonk, and Book of Meme, which have all doubled this year. As a result, all meme coins tracked by CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap have gained a market cap of over $60 billion, making them bigger than well-known companies like Lazard, General Motors, Ford, and Stellantis.
This trend could continue as more traders seek refuge in meme coins and celeb-themed tokens. For example, earlier this week, Rapper Iggy Azalea’s MOTHER token gained a market cap of over $300 million. It was then passed by DADDY, the new token being promoted by Andrew Tate, the popular provocateur.
Meme coins do better than big coins like Bitcoin for two main reasons. First, they tend to be driven by hype and momentum. Second, unlike Bitcoin, these tokens are easy to manipulate since most of them are usually held by insiders.
Third, meme coins trade for lower notional value than Bitcoin. While Bitcoin was trading at $67,000 on Saturday, Memeinator was going for $0.01820 while tokens like Pepe and Minu were going for much lower.
As a result, traders argue that buying cheaper meme coins will always generate a better return than investing in bigger coins. For example, while it is easy for Pepe to double, it takes longer for Bitcoin to do the same.
Memeinator to be in focus
Meanwhile, many crypto traders are now focusing on Memeinator, one of the fastest-growing meme coins.
The token, which concluded its token sale recently, has already achieved listings by some of the leading exchanges in the industry like Uniswap and MEXC. The developers are hoping to get listings by other exchanges in the coming months.
Memeinator is a cryptocurrency that seeks to take advantage of several key themes in the industry. It is aiming to join the meme coin craze that is spreading in the crypto sector.
In addition to that, the developers hope that it will benefit from the artificial intelligence theme that has become the biggest one globally. Apple launched its Apple Intelligence suite of products while Mistral AI raised over $600 million from investors.
Further, Memeinator aims to be a leading player in the gaming industry. They are now building the Meme Warfare game that will reward users for winning. You can learn more about Memeinator here.
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.

- Ethereum started a fresh increase above the $3,220 and $3,300 levels.
- The price is trading above $3,250 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average.
- There is a short-term contracting triangle forming with resistance at $3,360 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken).

Ethereum Price Regains Traction
Ethereum price remained supported above $3,000 and started a fresh increase like Bitcoin. ETH gained pace for a move above the $3,150 and $3,220 resistance levels.
The bulls pumped the price above the $3,300 level. It gained over 10% and traded as high as $3,387. It is now consolidating gains above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent move from the $3,036 swing low to the $3,387 high.
Ethereum price is now trading above $3,220 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price seems to be facing hurdles near the $3,350 level. There is also a short-term contracting triangle forming with resistance at $3,360 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD.
The first major resistance is near the $3,385 level. The main resistance is now forming near $3,420. A clear move above the $3,420 resistance might send the price toward the $3,550 resistance. An upside break above the $3,550 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $3,650 resistance zone or even $3,880.
Another Decline In ETH?
If Ethereum fails to clear the $3,350 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $3,300 level. The first major support sits near the $3,250 zone.
A clear move below the $3,250 support might push the price toward $3,220 or the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent move from the $3,036 swing low to the $3,387 high. Any more losses might send the price toward the $3,150 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $3,050.
