TL;DR
- Despite a general downturn in the crypto market, one Solana-based meme coin saw significant gains, highlighted by a mysterious trader turning $35,000 into $44 million.
- The coin’s recent success was bolstered by endorsements from prominent individuals such as BitMEX’s co-founder Arthur Hayes.
The crypto sector suffered a significant setback in the past few days, with leading digital assets such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) plunging to multi-week lows. While the market recovered some of the losses in the last several hours, most cryptocurrencies remain in red territory on a 24-hour scale.
However, there are some exceptions, and one example is the newly launched Solana-based meme coin Cats in a Dogs World (MEW).
The token’s price has surged by over 40% in the last 24 hours, whereas its market capitalization neared the $800 million mark. Currently, MEW is the 131st biggest cryptocurrency (per CoinGecko’s data), a serious achievement considering the fact that it saw the light of day a week ago.
The token made the headlines last weekend when it reached an all-time high price. Its rally was accompanied by support from BitMEX’s co-founder Arthur Hayes, who highlighted MEW’s impressive performance on his X profile.
Earlier this week, the popular entrepreneur and crypto analyst – Lark Davis – revealed the case of a mysterious trader who turned $35,000 into a staggering $44 million by dealing with the asset.
Another Solana-based meme coin that helped savvy investors make multi-million profits is dogwifhat (WIF). As CryptoPotato reported last month, an individual purchased approximately 2.5 million WIF tokens at the end of 2023, spending just $310. Currently, the stash is worth more than $10 million.
Trading meme coins during the bull market may appear like an attractive investment opportunity, but it could also lead to devastating losses due to their notorious volatility.
