28 February 2024
The crypto market seems to be going nowhere but up. Bitcoin nears $60,000, Ether has been surfing above the $3,000 wave for four days, currently sitting at the $3,330 level, and the rest of the market continues to gain momentum.
Significant developments and a strong bullish sentiment have built up over the past couple of months, and as a result, the top gainers during this bull run are coming from every sector of the market. This is the case of Dog-themed coins, which currently sit among the cryptocurrencies with the best performance over the last few days.
Dog-Themed Coins Are Soaring
Dog-inspired cryptocurrencies are some of the most popular coins among the crypto community. The trend started with the popular internet doge meme and has inspired some of the most recognizable memecoins in the market.
The largest by market capitalization in this category, Dogecoin, currently stays out of the top ten cryptocurrencies by this metric. However, it has remained close to the top with its 11th place.
The Dog-themed market cap has shown a 12.8% growth in the last 24 hours, as CoinGecko data shows. The sector’s market capitalization sits at an impressive $23.8 billion, and the dog-based coins trading volume reached over $4.25 billion in the last 24 hours.
The chart above shows that the top ten dog-inspired cryptocurrencies display positive performance, with green numbers all over the board in the last 7 days.
Impressive Performance From WIF, FLOKI And More
Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and Bonk lead the dog-inspired market. However, none of these tokens are among the top five gainers on the last day or week.
At writing time, the coins that have seen the best performance in this category include dogwifhat (WIF), FLOKI (FLOKI), Samoyedcoin (SAMO), Myro (MYRO), and Chihuahua Chain (HUAHUA). Let’s take a look at the 3 top gainers:
Dogwifhat (WIF)
WIF’s price jumped 41.9% during the last day and now trades at $0.7765. Earlier today, the coin’s price recorded a new all-time high (ATH) after reaching $0.79.
Just last week, a crypto analyst predicted that the price of WIF was about to go “turbo parabolic” and possibly reach $1. Fans of the project have shown their excitement by suggesting that investors “keep their hats on” during this leg of the rally.
Dogwifhat’s daily trading volume of $123.5 million represents a 34.30% increase from one day ago. This hints at a recent rise in “hats being put on” after the token has shown an impressive 117.8% and 137.8% price jump in the last 7 and 30 days, respectively.
FLOKI
As previously reported, FLOKI has been soaring after DWF Labs announced its plans to strengthen its partnership with the project. The digital assets investment firm will purchase $10 million worth of FLOKI tokens directly from the project’s treasury over two years.
Since then, the token’s price has risen 37.7% in the last 24 hours. Currently trading at $0.00005973, FLOKI has maintained its gains over the week with an 85.4% price increase. Additionally, its performance recorded a 100.1% jump in the 30-day time frame.
According to CoinGecko data, FLOKI is outperforming the global crypto market with its performance in the last week. Similarly, it has increased its trading volume by 116.6% in 24 hours, with over $382 million.
Chihuahua Chain
Chihuahua Chain surprised the crypto community after becoming one of the largest global earners on the last day. Members of the ‘HUAHUA Army’ speculated if the token would break out of the downtrend seen after the token’s massive pump in December.
HUAHUA experienced a massive 48.4% price jump in the last 24 hours. The token went from its $0.00018 price to trade at $0.0003411. Its daily trading volume massively increased by 140.4% and currently sits at $1.017 million. This performance has been sustained over the last month, as the token’s price has grown 50.3%.
