The Easter weekend is here, and while the global crypto market is only up by a modest 0.60%, some memecoins are quietly heating up behind the scenes. With the total market cap sitting at $2.68 trillion, Bitcoin crossing $84,000, and Ethereum holding around $1,597, all eyes are on the underdogs—memecoins that could see short bursts of action over the long weekend.
Shiba Inu (SHIB)
Shiba Inu (SHIB) has been showing some promising movement lately. Currently priced at $0.00001217, SHIB is up 2.75% on the day, riding on an 8.78% pump. With a market cap of $7.17 billion and a decent 24-hour trading volume of $120.93 million, it’s got just enough momentum to make another upward move.
If this pace continues, a slight jump toward the $0.000013 range could be on the cards, especially with retail buyers expected to be more active during the weekend.
OFFICIAL TRUMP (TRUMP)
Meanwhile, the Trump-themed coin, TRUMP, is making a lot of noise. Up 8.51% in the past 24 hours and now trading at $8.15, the coin is seeing renewed interest with a volume spike of over 26%.
Its market cap stands at $1.63 billion, and with a 24-hour volume of $482.82 million, TRUMP is one of the more active memecoins heading into the weekend. If this bullish momentum sticks, a test of the $9 mark isn’t far-fetched.
Fartcoin (FARTCOIN)
Fartcoin might sound like a joke, but it’s been holding its ground in recent days. Trading at $0.7666 and up 2.15% today, its market cap of $766 million shows that it’s no small player in the memecoin space.
However, the 26.98% drop in trading volume hints at declining interest, which could keep its price range-bound through the weekend unless there’s a sudden pickup in demand.
Dogecoin (DOGE)
Dogecoin, the original memecoin, is still holding strong with a market cap of $23.61 billion. It’s currently priced at $0.1585, showing a 2.5% increase in the last 24 hours. However, with a 10.79% dip in trading volume, it appears that the excitement around it has somewhat faded.
That said, Doge has a loyal community and a habit of bouncing when least expected. If general market sentiment stays bullish, Doge could make a quiet push toward the $0.165 region before the weekend ends.
Pepe (PEPE)
Pepe is managing to hold steady even after a sharp 30% dip in trading volume. It’s currently priced at $0.000005726, with a solid market cap of $3.05 billion and a modest 2.33% gain over the past day. The drop in activity might raise eyebrows, but the coin’s price hasn’t flinched much—showing that there’s still decent support from its holders.
If the overall market stays green this weekend, Pepe might catch some of that momentum. Still, for it to really break out, it’ll likely need a fresh wave of trading interest.
All things considered, Shiba Inu, Trump, Fartcoin, Dogecoin, and Pepe are looking like the top memecoins to keep an eye on this Easter. Some might be lacking in volume right now, but their price movements hint at potential upside, especially with more retail traders jumping in over the weekend.
With Bitcoin cruising above $84K and Ethereum staying stable, memecoins could see a short burst of action. Don’t be surprised if one or two of them end up making headlines by Monday.
