As the broader crypto market inches closer to the $3.4 trillion mark, a new wave of meme coin rallies is turning heads. While Bitcoin and Ethereum posted steady gains, it’s the Solana-based meme tokens that are making the most noise today.
Moo Deng, Neiro, and Bonk emerged as the top three gainers, driven by new exchange listings, social traction, and rising retail interest.
Moo Deng $MOODENG (moodengsol.com)
Moo Deng took the top spot, jumping 47.13% in the past 24 hours to trade at $0.2048. The memecoin’s trading volume exploded to $358 million, up more than 612%, while its market cap now stands at $202.78 million.
The main trigger? A fresh listing on South Korea’s Upbit exchange earlier today introduced MOODENG trading in KRW, BTC, and USDT pairs.
The Upbit listing gave a strong push to Solana’s meme coin scene, which shot up over 9% as traders jumped into low-supply tokens like MOODENG. But what lit things up was Vitalik Buterin giving MOODENG a shoutout for its growing community, that one mention brought in even more eyes and hype.
On the technical side, the price is now hovering around a key retracement level, while the RSI suggests the move still has room without being overbought. But with volume already exceeding market cap, there’s no denying a large portion of this spike is speculative.
Neiro $NEIRO (First Neiro on Ethereum)
Neiro also saw a sharp move, climbing 32.8% on the day to reach $0.0005009. Volume surged to $272.4 million, up nearly 467%, with its market cap touching $209.81 million.
Much of that momentum stems from increased exposure in Japan, thanks to a Binance Japan listing that quietly went live on June 25. The kicker? A zero-maker fee promotion that runs through July 25, encouraging fresh inflows from retail traders in the region.
Technically, NEIRO broke through a key resistance level at $0.0005300 and is showing signs of strength with positive MACD signals and an RSI just under 70.
Another important factor is its supply distribution; 71% of the tokens are held by whales, which limits short-term selling pressure. If the current uptrend holds, the next resistance could be around the $0.000600 level.
Bonk (BONK)
Bonk rounded out the top three, rising 20.52% over the last 24 hours to hit $0.00001719. Trading activity also picked up significantly, with volume crossing $528 million, a 320.34% jump from the day before.
The move follows speculation around a 2x leveraged BONK ETF being prepared by Tuttle Capital, with a possible launch date set for July 16, pending approval.
Beyond ETF buzz, Bonk’s fundamentals are also shifting. The team is nearing the end of its Saga phone token redemption window, set to close on July 31. That will push unclaimed tokens, roughly 2.5 billion BONK, into the project’s DAO, reducing future selling pressure.
Meanwhile, Bonk has seen growing traction across Solana’s DeFi scene, with over 350 integrations and new validators onboard. On the charts, BONK cleared a key resistance at $0.0000144 and looks primed for more if momentum holds.
Market Snapshot
The total crypto market cap is now at $3.39 trillion, up 2.88% from yesterday. Bitcoin is up 2.14% today, trading at $109,224.77, while Ethereum saw a bigger jump, up 6.19% to $2,600.75. Trading activity has also picked up, with BTC doing $56.19 billion and ETH hitting $24.88 billion in volume over the past 24 hours.
The trend clearly shows that investors are getting more comfortable with risk and are shifting money into altcoins, especially meme coins.
