Meme Coins: Serious Contenders in the Crypto Market

Meme 幣：加密貨幣市場的有力競爭者

Once dismissed as a fleeting trend, meme coins have emerged as significant players in the crypto market. In a recent analysis, an expert boldly predicts that meme coins like Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and Bonk will not only endure but are poised to command a combined market capitalization of at least $100 billion in the next bull market cycle.

曾經被認為是轉瞬即逝的趨勢的迷因幣如今已成為加密貨幣市場的重要參與者。在最近的一項分析中，一位專家大膽預測，像狗狗幣、柴犬和邦克這樣的迷因幣不僅會持續存在，而且有望在下一個牛市週期中獲得至少 1000 億美元的總市值。

Will Meme Coins Explode in the Next Bull Cycle?

Meme幣會在下一個牛市週期中爆炸嗎？

According to CoinMarketCap, only three crypto projects currently have a market cap exceeding $100 billion: Bitcoin ($1.3 trillion), Ethereum ($388 billion), and USDT ($109 billion). However, USDT, a stablecoin, maintains a stable value and does not fluctuate in value.

根據 CoinMarketCap 的數據，目前只有三個加密貨幣項目的市值超過 1,000 億美元：比特幣（1.3 兆美元）、以太幣（3,880 億美元）和 USDT（1,090 億美元）。但USDT作為穩定幣，價值維持穩定，不會有價值波動。

Despite this, the total market capitalization of meme coins stands at over $53 billion. This value surpasses that of XRP ($30 billion) and USDC ($34 billion). Dogecoin, the pioneer of meme coins, dominates the scene with a market cap of over $22.5 billion. Shiba Inu follows closely at $15.6 billion, while newer meme coins like Pepe and others on the Solana blockchain feature prominently in the top 10.

儘管如此，meme 幣的總市值仍超過 530 億美元。這一價值超過了 XRP（300 億美元）和 USDC（340 億美元）。狗狗幣是迷因幣的先驅，以超過 225 億美元的市值佔據主導地位。 Shiba Inu 緊隨其後，價值 156 億美元，而像 Pepe 和 Solana 區塊鏈上的其他新模因幣在前 10 名中佔據顯著位置。

Why Pepe, Dogecoin, and Similar Tokens Will Rise

為什麼佩佩、狗狗幣和類似代幣會上漲

Analysts attribute the success of meme coins to their accessibility and simplicity. Unlike complex DeFi protocols like Uniswap or Aave, meme coins are easy to understand and acquire. Creators of popular meme coins like Pepe have explicitly stated that their creations have no inherent utility and exist solely for entertainment purposes.

分析師將模因幣的成功歸因於其可訪問性和簡單性。與 Uniswap 或 Aave 等複雜的 DeFi 協議不同，meme 幣很容易理解和獲取。像佩佩這樣的流行迷因幣的創造者明確表示，他們的創作沒有固有的實用性，僅用於娛樂目的。

Furthermore, meme coins tend to be more liquid than NFTs, making them easier to trade. In the aftermath of the 2022 market downturn, the NFT trading market suffered a decline, with many tokens becoming difficult to buy or sell.

此外，Meme 幣往往比 NFT 更具流動性，這使得它們更容易交易。 2022年市場低迷之後，NFT交易市場出現下滑，許多代幣變得難以買賣。

Recognizing the potential of meme coins, the Avalanche Foundation recently launched a $1 million "Memecoin Rush" program. This initiative aims to incentivize trading and liquidity for community-owned meme coins within the Avalanche ecosystem.

認識到 Meme 幣的潛力，Avalanche 基金會最近啟動了一項價值 100 萬美元的「Memecoin Rush」計劃。該舉措旨在激勵 Avalanche 生態系統內社區擁有的迷因幣的交易和流動性。
