Popcat, Dogwifhat Among Top Losers
On October 9, 2024, meme cryptocurrencies are experiencing a sharp decline in value. Popcat (POPCAT), the leading cat-themed crypto, has lost 5.9%. Its market capitalization has fallen below $1.2 billion due to low trading volume.
Popcat (POPCAT) was recognized by Murad Mahmudov, who proposed a theory on the "meme coin cycle" at TOKEN 2049 in Singapore. As a result, the token has still gained approximately 15% over the past seven days.
Dogwifhat (WIF), a prominent meme cryptocurrency on Solana (SOL), also underperformed, with a 5.5% drop overnight.
According to CoinGlass data, both Dogwifhat (WIF) and Popcat (POPCAT) bulls have faced losses in cryptocurrency derivatives markets. A majority of the $3.4 million in liquidated positions were long positions in the past 24 hours.
Other notable meme coins like Floki (FLOKI), Bonk (BONK), and Based Brett (BRETT) have also declined by 3-4%.
Dogecoin Shines as an Exception
Shiba Inu (SHIB) has experienced a relatively minor price drop of 1.5%. However, Dogecoin (DOGE), the largest meme coin, stands out as the only cryptocurrency in the sector exhibiting positive performance today.
Over the past 24 hours, Dogecoin (DOGE) has gained 1.3%, and its market capitalization is approaching $16 billion.
The overall cryptocurrency market is down 2.5% today. Bitcoin (BTC) has lost 1.5% of its value, while Ethereum (ETH) has declined by 0.2%.
