The meme coin market is undergoing a dramatic downturn, with prominent cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin (DOGE)<\/a>, and Shiba Inu (SHIB) facing substantial decline. Due to the market volatility and broader decline, the total market capitalization of meme coins<\/a> dropped below $40 billion, signaling a notable decrease in investors demand for these coins.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Market Crash By Over 12%<\/h2>\n

Recent severe declines<\/a> in meme coins have exposed the market\u2019s inherent fragility, where the value of most coins is largely influenced by speculations and social sentiment<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to CoinGecko, the total market capitalization of meme coins plummeted <\/a>by more than 12% in the previous day, falling significantly below $40 billion. Since then, the market has rebounded slightly above $40 billion after witnessing a 4.9% increase in the last 24 hours.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Lookonchain also reported<\/a> via X (formerly Twitter) that over the past year, the top 10 coins have crashed by an average of 63.73% from their peak values. These top meme coins <\/a>include Dogecoin, which has fallen by 57.93%, Shiba Inu by 70.86%, Pepe (PEPE) by 58.16%, and Dogwifhat (WIF)<\/a> by 70.93%.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Other meme based cryptocurrencies that have experienced significant price drops include Bonk (BONK), Floki (FLOKI)<\/a>, Brett, Popcat, Book of Meme (BOME) and Cat In a Dogs World (MEW).\u00a0<\/p>\n

On September 1, a crypto analyst identified as \u2018Crash\u2019 also shed some light on the current state of the meme coin market<\/a>. Crash estimated<\/a> that 99.9% of meme coin ventures are being wiped out, leaving numerous investors and enthusiasts scrambling for stability.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The analyst pointed out that in this current market, simply surviving is a notable achievement for a meme coin, as many prominent meme projects have already failed, and now face a rapid descent to a zero value. He highlighted that the collapse of newer or smaller cap meme coins were unsurprising because they lacked maturity and the necessary support to succeed on their own.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, the recent bearish trend has also fallen on more prominent and influential coins like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu, which were once considered a resounding success in the crypto market due to their extensive community<\/a> and popularity.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Crash has noted that the market has become overly saturated with excessive \u201cprojects, larps and degeneracy.\u201d He emphasized that the recent decline in meme coins suggests that a balance is being restored, and it is important for the market to embrace the adjustment, get better and survive.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Are Meme Coins Really Dying?<\/h2>\n

Over the past week, the value of meme coins <\/a>have plummeted significantly, underscoring a rising disinterest among investors. Dogecoin witnessed a price drop of over 6% in the previous week, while Shiba Inu plunged by more than 7% around the same time, according to CoinMarketCap .<\/p>\n

A crypto community member identified as Tyler Durdeth,\u2019 has proclaimed<\/a> that meme coins are dead, highlighting that the market could potentially go through an existential crisis like Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs)<\/a> back in 2022.\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
