Meme

Meme coins are community-driven cryptocurrencies inspired by internet culture, social media trends, and viral humor. While often volatile, they represent the "social layer" of crypto, fostering massive, highly engaged communities. In 2026, the meme sector has evolved beyond speculative trading into community-led incubators and fair-launch platforms on chains like Solana. Follow this tag to analyze market sentiment, viral tokenomics, and the cultural impact of assets like DOGE, PEPE, and the next generation of social tokens.

These Altcoins Are Being Added To More Portfolios Than Ripple (XRP) In August 2025

These Altcoins Are Being Added To More Portfolios Than Ripple (XRP) In August 2025

The post These Altcoins Are Being Added To More Portfolios Than Ripple (XRP) In August 2025 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ripple is a giant in the crypto space, but August 2025 is seeing a distinct shift. More investors are adding altcoins like Pengu and Layer Brett to their portfolios, challenging the dominance of Ripple and other legacy names.  With Ethereum Layer 2 technology, Layer Brett delivers near-instant transactions and gas fees that cost pennies, while Ethereum Layer 1 and even Ripple can see fees spike to several dollars in periods of congestion. Why Layer 2 gives Layer Brett the edge over Ripple This technical advantage positions Layer Brett as both a Memecoin and a utility powerhouse. While Dogecoin, Bonk, and Pepe have built strong communities, their underlying blockchains face congestion and high costs.  Layer Brett’s Ethereum Layer 2 solution gives it a real edge, allowing for massive scalability and seamless staking. The XRP price and why altcoins like Pengu and Layer Brett are trending The XRP price recently hit $3.23, and the market cap for Ripple stands at an impressive $192.48 billion. However, investors are increasingly hunting for the next 100x altcoin, and Layer Brett, Pengu, Shiba Inu, and Pepe are capturing that attention. The current presale price for $LBRETT is just $0.0044, making it a low-cap crypto gem for those seeking massive upside during the 2025 crypto bull run. Pengu is also gaining traction, trading at $0.04 with a $2.27 billion market cap and solid DeFi integration. Yet, it is Layer Brett’s blend of meme energy and Layer 2 speed that is setting it apart from established competitors like Brett (original), Bonk, and Dogecoin. Main selling points of Layer Brett: Built on Ethereum Layer 2: Fast, scalable, and ultra-low gas fees 55,000% APY staking: Early buyers can stake via MetaMask or Trust Wallet Presale access: $LBRETT available now at $0.0044 with over $700,000 already contributed Community-first: Gamified staking, NFT…

Eric Trump explains how Wall Street pushed his family toward crypto

Eric Trump explains how Wall Street pushed his family toward crypto

The post Eric Trump explains how Wall Street pushed his family toward crypto appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Eric Trump didn’t wake up one day and decide crypto was cool. He said his family was forced into it after banks shut them out without warning. Speaking to The Wall Street Journal, Eric repeated that several financial institutions dumped the Trump Organization in early 2021, right after the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. They shut down hundreds of accounts. Eric called the collective decision political and said it exposed how weak and “weaponized” the banking system had become. “At that time, I realized how fragile the financial system was and how easily it could be weaponized against you,” he said. With no time to spare, the Trump family started moving millions of dollars across smaller banks. Eric said they eventually found a new bank to work with, but he didn’t name it. The idea of “debanking” has since become a rallying cry for conservatives and crypto circles. Republicans claim banks now discriminate based on political beliefs. Eric, who now leads much of the Trump Organization’s activity, said it was that exact experience that opened the door for their entry into crypto. Eric leads Trump family crypto deals across bitcoin, stablecoins, and tokens Eric didn’t hesitate. He took the lead. He helped move the Trump empire into crypto markets fast; Bitcoin mining, token investments, and new blockchain ventures. Their most valuable stake is in World Liberty Financial, which was recently valued at $4.5 billion. The firm introduced WLFI, a token, and also created a dollar-linked stablecoin. Eric insisted this had nothing to do with government work. “I literally have nothing to do with Washington, D.C.,” he said, pushing back against claims of conflict of interest. But critics say the lines are blurred. Democrats and outside watchdogs accuse the family of exploiting the presidency to benefit financially. President Trump recently signed an…

XRP Flips BlackRock as Price Holds $3 – Analysts Eye $5 to $8 Next

XRP Flips BlackRock as Price Holds $3 – Analysts Eye $5 to $8 Next

The post XRP Flips BlackRock as Price Holds $3 – Analysts Eye $5 to $8 Next appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The post XRP Flips BlackRock as Price Holds $3 – Analysts Eye $5 to $8 Next appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News XRP is holding strong momentum after briefly touching $3.09 on August 23 before consolidating near $3.02. The move, backed by unusually high institutional trading volumes, has analysts watching the $3.30 resistance level as the key to unlock ambitious $5–$8 targets. XRP Flips BlackRock The standout moment came as XRP’s market cap hit $179 billion, overtaking BlackRock’s $177 billion. While BlackRock manages $10 trillion in assets, XRP at just $3 a coin managed to “flip” the Wall Street giant, sparking debate across financial circles. This wasn’t a meme rally; it was a showcase of how digital assets with real-world utility can challenge traditional finance. Why XRP Price  is Surging? Several factors have converged to fuel XRP’s rise. Ripple recently closed its long battle with the SEC, giving the token rare regulatory clarity. On top of that, ETFs tied to XRP are lining up for approval in October, Ripple is progressing toward a banking license, and its stablecoin RLUSD is in the pipeline. Together, these developments give institutions stronger reasons to bet on XRP as a long-term payments solution. Moreover, XRP price move also came after dovish comments from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell at Jackson Hole. His remarks sparked hopes of September rate cuts, triggering a fresh wave of risk-on sentiment in global markets. Digital assets were big winners, and XRP, with its combination of utility and legal clarity, stood out as one of the top beneficiaries. .article-inside-link { margin-left: 0 !important; border: 1px solid #0052CC4D; border-left: 0; border-right: 0; padding: 10px 0; text-align: left; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li { font-size: 14px; line-height: 21px; font-weight: 600; list-style-type: none; margin-bottom: 0; display: inline-block; } .entry ul.article-inside-link li:last-child { display: none;…

MATIC, VeChain, Dogecoin, and MAGACOIN Finance are now drawing smart money attention, each offering unique drivers ranging from blockchain adoption to whale accumulation and bonus offers. Polygon (MATIC) Riding the POL Migration Wave Polygon completed its transition from MATIC to POL in 2024, bringing clarity to tokenomics and solidifying POL as the network’s settlement asset. The next big upgrade is the AggLayer rollout, designed to link multiple blockchains into a unified liquidity layer by the end of 2025. In July, Polygon processed $2.56 billion in stablecoin payments, a clear indicator of growing real-world demand, while its $1.23 billion in TVL continues to highlight network adoption.

Don’t rely on Dogecoin (DOGE) for big returns in 2025, these 5 memecoins will perform better in 2025

Don’t rely on Dogecoin (DOGE) for big returns in 2025, these 5 memecoins will perform better in 2025

The post Don’t rely on Dogecoin (DOGE) for big returns in 2025, these 5 memecoins will perform better in 2025 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Dogecoin may be the memecoin’s face, but its days of life-changing gains are likely over. DOGE trades more like a blue-chip meme token than a high-growth option due to its multi-billion-dollar market value and minimal innovation. New memecoins are attracting investors, anticipating spectacular gains that can turn a small stake into thousands in 2025. Little Pepe, MemeCore M, Shiba Inu, dogwifhat, and Turbo are the most promising coins for early investors to outperform DOGE. Little Pepe (LILPEPE):  The rising memecoin While still in presale, Little Pepe has become one of the most promising memecoins of 2025. Over 13.7 billion tokens have been sold in presale, raising  $21,128,704 million. The current price is $0.0020, and the next stage will increase the price to $0.0021. Little Pepe stands out due to its high presale momentum and Layer-2 Ethereum technology, which speeds up and lowers transaction costs. Community strength matters too. Little Pepe boasts over 33,723 holders, a 27,000-member Telegram group, and a successful Certik audit, which lends it long-term legitimacy that many presale ventures lack. The token might reach $0.05–$0.08 if momentum continues in 2025. This trajectory would make a $250 presale investment worth several thousand dollars within a few years, making LILPEPE a top memecoin investment candidate. M (MEMECORE): Strong market presence, growth potential MemeCore M trades around $0.4107 with a $686 million market cap. This makes it big enough to be credible yet early enough to deliver significant upside. If MemeCore M expands its ecosystem and leverages crypto meme-driven hype cycles, it might reach $1.20–$1.50 in 2025. That would triple its worth, and long-term holders could experience even bigger gains by 2030, thanks to the project’s cultural branding and tokenomics. Investing $250 now in MemeCore M at $1.50 would be worth nearly $900, with considerably more potential if the token…

Can Ethereum Really Hit $20,000 This Cycle? Analyst Maps The Path

Can Ethereum Really Hit $20,000 This Cycle? Analyst Maps The Path

The post Can Ethereum Really Hit $20,000 This Cycle? Analyst Maps The Path appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto analyst Astronomer (@astronomer_zero) says his long-standing bottom thesis on the ETH/BTC pair has played out and published explicit cycle targets anchored to the cross. In a chart shared on X, he reiterated that “ETH bottom call” is in and framed the roadmap entirely through ETH/BTC levels rather than ETH/USD, arguing that Ether’s outperformance typically follows Bitcoin’s impulse and that “all major liquidity comes from BTC.” How High Can Ethereum Go This Cycle? Astronomer’s post centers on a multi-month “zone” on ETH/BTC that he had marked in advance as a potential cyclical inflection. He writes that the call looked “delusional” when first drawn—“a ‘ridiculously long’ prediction line (straight up from the bottom) from what ‘could impossibly be the ETHBTC bottom’ at the time”—but says the turn aligns with his proprietary sentiment work. “The sentiment on ETH was the worst my sentiment metric has ever tracked,” with narratives ranging from “ETH is a bad investment,” to “ETH foundation is selling,” to “SOL is the new ETH,” to “utility coins are dead.” In his words, “that type of sentiment allowed us to confirm the bottom on ETHBTC in alignment with our ancient plan, at the time it hit our zone.” With that backdrop, the chart and commentary lay out three ETH/BTC targets for the remainder of the cycle. The first is 0.058 BTC per ETH, which he notes was “still 35% above here” at the time of posting and, translated directly using spot Bitcoin, “puts ETH at approx. $6.500 if BTC stays at this price.” The second is 0.091, “pretty much a double from here,” corresponding to “$ETH to $10,000+, 5 figures,” a level where he says he “will have sold over half of my spot bags.” The final and highest target is 0.16, “just under a 4x from here, putting ETH…

The post Dogecoin (DOGE) Price Stalls Near $0.22, While Whales Accumulate This New Crypto for 25x Potential appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News Dogecoin (DOGE) has been trading road‑guarded in the $0.22 range for months, slowly drifting sideways through much of 2024 and 2025 with no sustained breakout in sight.
