Meme Coins: Serious Contenders in the Crypto Market

Meme 币：加密货币市场的有力竞争者

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.

曾经被认为是转瞬即逝的趋势的模因币如今已成为加密货币市场的重要参与者。在最近的一项分析中，一位专家大胆预测，像狗狗币、柴犬和邦克这样的模因币不仅会持续存在，而且有望在下一个牛市周期中获得至少 1000 亿美元的总市值。

Will Meme Coins Explode in the Next Bull Cycle?

Meme币会在下一个牛市周期中爆炸吗？

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.

根据 CoinMarketCap 的数据，目前只有三个加密货币项目的市值超过 1000 亿美元：比特币（1.3 万亿美元）、以太坊（3880 亿美元）和 USDT（1090 亿美元）。但USDT作为稳定币，价值保持稳定，不会出现价值波动。

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.

尽管如此，meme 币的总市值仍超过 530 亿美元。这一价值超过了 XRP（300 亿美元）和 USDC（340 亿美元）。狗狗币是模因币的先驱，以超过 225 亿美元的市值占据主导地位。 Shiba Inu 紧随其后，价值 156 亿美元，而像 Pepe 和 Solana 区块链上的其他新模因币在前 10 名中占据显着位置。

Why Pepe, Dogecoin, and Similar Tokens Will Rise

为什么佩佩、狗狗币和类似代币会上涨

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.

分析师将模因币的成功归因于其可访问性和简单性。与 Uniswap 或 Aave 等复杂的 DeFi 协议不同，meme 币很容易理解和获取。像佩佩这样的流行模因币的创造者明确表示，他们的创作没有固有的实用性，仅用于娱乐目的。

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 币往往比 NFT 更具流动性，这使得它们更容易交易。 2022年市场低迷之后，NFT交易市场出现下滑，许多代币变得难以买卖。

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.

认识到 Meme 币的潜力，Avalanche 基金会最近启动了一项价值 100 万美元的“Memecoin Rush”计划。该举措旨在激励 Avalanche 生态系统内社区拥有的模因币的交易和流动性。
