Meme coins have been on a crazy run in the last few days. Especially in the last 24 hours, the meme coin market cap had surged as much as 8%. However, it has shed almost 2% and stands at $52.5 billion at press time.

Much of the pump was exhibited by meme coins like SPX6900, MOO DENG, POPCAT, etc. An analysis of the top 10 meme coins shows that NEIRO and POPCAT were leading the charge by hitting back-to-back new all time highs.

But the rally seems to have cooled down, as POPCAT has lost over 17% in the last 24 hours. However, NEIRO seems to be holding strong, as it is up by almost 15% in the same timeframe.

Other top meme coins, including Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, PEPE, dogwifhat, BONK and FLOKI, have all lost values in the range of 5%-10%.

Despite the overall bearish market, a few meme coins like SPX, MAGA, NEIOR and TURBO have stood out as the top crypto gainers in the last 24 hours.

The current trajectory of the market looks uncertain as utility drive coins are being dethroned by meme coins. Analysts are even claiming that it’s meme coin season now.
