As the cryptocurrency market recovers, Memecoins is gaining attention.

  • Memecoin has recently become a new craze.
  • The cryptocurrency market is slowly rebounding from last week’s lows.
  • Market participants have questioned the value of memecoins.

The cryptocurrency market’s poor performance in recent weeks has sent a chill across the industry, with investor interest declining and asset prices falling. However, in a reversal of fortunes, the past week has been on the upswing with most assets regaining upward momentum and hitting new record highs.

But it’s not the market giants that get the attention.

Memecoin surges in return

According to CoinGecko data as of Thursday, May 16, 2024, the total Meme Coin market cap was $58.13 billion, up 10% from the last day.

The surging value is consistent with the gains recorded across the top players in the memecoin sector over the past week. Among the top performers is Pepe (PEPE), with a total return of 24% over the past seven days. Following this, Flokicoin (FLOKI) also recorded a 19.3% rise.

Continued upward trend of memecoin surge, per CoinGecko

PEPE and FLOKI’s performance surpasses the modest gains seen in larger markets such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), which experienced gains of approximately 5% and 3%, respectively, over the same period.

Shiba Inu (SHIB), Bonk (BONK), and Dogecoin (DOGE) also maintained upward momentum, showing rises of 8.7%, 3.6%, and 2.6%, respectively.

Despite their impressive performance, concerns persist about the usefulness of these coins within the industry, often raising doubts about their place in the industry.

Are Memecoins a “Risk Casino”?

According to Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) CTO Eddy Lazzarin, the meme coin asset class is changing perceptions of the cryptocurrency industry.

Expressing concerns about the impact on the industry’s integrity and long-term vision, Lazzarin argued that meme coins have impacted adoption, regulatory standards and developer retention in the cryptocurrency industry, resulting in significant frustration within the ecosystem.

"Memecoins alter how the public, regulators, and entrepreneurs see crypto. At best, it looks like a risky casino. Or a series of false promises masking a casino.”

The managing partner at investment firm Compound also argued that the long-term goals of the cryptocurrency industry must be prioritized, stressing that the continued surge in meme coins is alienating developers.
