Yesterday, as Musk continuously released, forwarded, and replied to 5 meme pictures related to Pepe (the picture below is one of them), the market value of PEPE exceeded 11.3 billion US dollars in the early morning yesterday, setting a new record high. Previously, the price of DOGE continued to rise, and then PEPE broke through the market value of 10 billion to set a new record high. Musk opened up everyone's imagination about animal memes. Perhaps, in addition to AI memes, animal memes are also worthy of special attention in this bull market.
Next, Odaily Planet Daily will sort out the popular animal-related meme projects with a market value of over 100 million US dollars, and explore the next potential project that is expected to hit 10 billion US dollars.
FLOKI (FLOKI)
Project Introduction:
Floki originated from the content posted by Musk on the X platform: My shiba inu will be named floki. Unlike other animal-related meme projects, FLOKI is a token with metaverse games, NFT ecosystems, and blockchain lending functions.
Contract address:
0xcf0C122c6b73ff809C693DB761e7BaeBe62b6a2E
Reasons for optimism:
1. In addition to the Meme attribute, it is committed to building its own ecosystem. First, the mainnet of Floki's flagship metaverse blockchain game Valhalla will be launched in the first quarter of next year; second, Floki announced that its debit card has been officially launched, and users can use crypto assets at merchants around the world that accept VISA or MasterCard. Third, the total locked value of FLOKI's crypto lock protocol FlokiFi Locker once reached US$165.6 million, and is temporarily reported at US$52 million;
2. Token airdrops for FLOKI holders. FLOKI has received two token airdrops in the second half of this year, namely CAT tokens and MONKY tokens.
Price performance:
According to GMGN data, FLOKI's market value is currently $2.2 billion after peaking at over $3.3 billion.
Brett (BRETT)
Project Introduction:
Inspired by the characters from Matt Furie’s Boy’s Club comic book series, which also gave birth to the infamous Pepe the Frog meme, the token has developed a niche audience within the cryptocurrency community.
Contract address:
0x532f27101965dd16442e59d40670faf5ebb142e4
Reasons for optimism:
1. The leader of the Base chain animal series Meme. From the perspective of market value, community popularity and other dimensions, BRETT is the leader of the Base ecosystem's animal series Meme;
2. BRETT is listed on Binance Futures and Upbit Spot. BRETT is one of the few animal-based meme coins listed on mainstream exchanges in the Base ecosystem. It is worth mentioning that BRETT was listed on Upbit at the same time as PEPE.
Price performance:
According to GMGN data, BRETT's market value has fallen from a peak of over $2.5 billion to $1.7 billion.
Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT)
Project Introduction:
PNUT originated from a controversy over the euthanasia of the internet celebrity squirrel Peanut. With the "fueling" of public figures such as Musk, it has fermented into a weapon of public opinion to stir up the US election.
Contract address:
2qEHjDLDLbuBgRYvsxhc5D6uDWAivNFZGan56P1tpump
Reasons for optimism:
1. The first animal-based meme coin to be listed on Binance Spot in this round of Meme bull market;
2. The Internet celebrity squirrel that stirred up the US election. The Peanut incident has fermented into a crusade against the Democratic Party and has even been used as a weapon of public opinion in political competition. Now that Trump has been confirmed as the next president, there may be more room for hype in the future.
Price performance:
According to GMGN data, PNUT's market value fell from a peak of over $2 billion to a low of less than $1 billion. Its current market value is $1.1 billion.
DOG•GO•TO•THE•MOON (DOG)
Project Introduction:
The entire project was initiated by @LeonidasNFT, who is currently the absolute community leader. Although DOG·GO·TO·THE·MOON is an "animal coin" on the surface, it is actually focusing on the fair narrative. Leonidas has been leading the community to speak to various CEXs to convey the process and spirit of DOG's fair distribution to the entire Bitcoin ecosystem.
Reasons for optimism:
1. BTC Ecological Meme Leader. From the perspective of market value, community popularity and other dimensions, BRETT is the Animal Meme Leader of BTC Ecosystem. If the market's attention to Bitcoin Ecosystem heats up again in the future, the price of DOG will have a good increase.
Price performance:
According to on-chain data, DOG’s current market capitalization is $907 million.
Neiro（NEIRO）
Project Introduction:
NEIRO is the name of the rescue dog recently adopted by the owner of the deceased Dogecoin prototype Shiba Inu Internet celebrity Kabosu. Once it was made public, this name became the new favorite of MEME. People tried to replicate the miracle of Dogecoin. Multiple tokens with the same name were issued at the same time on public chains such as Ethereum and Solana. (For details on the topic of uppercase and lowercase Neiro, please see: Neiro and NEIRO are listed on Binance together. Is the Meme coin track ushering in a turning point?)
Contract address:
0x812ba41e071c7b7fa4ebcfb62df5f45f6fa853ee
Reasons for optimism:
1. Lowercase Neiro is a typical example of community victory. Lowercase Neiro is the authentic first is first, but the "cabal group" later issued uppercase NEIRO and listed it on Binance Futures first. However, as the community continued to announce and Justin Sun supported lowercase Neiro, emphasizing that cryptocurrency should belong to the community and respect the community, the price of lowercase Neiro continued to rise after it was listed on Binance Spot, defeating uppercase NEIRO.
Price performance:
According to GMGN data, Neiro's market value has fallen from a peak of over $1.2 billion to $650 million.
Moo Deng (MOODENG)
Project Introduction:
In September, an ugly hippo named Moo Deng went viral and became the headline of various media. Born in Khao Kheow, an open zoo in Thailand, Moo Deng, who was only two months old, became a new social media darling because of his distinctive face and interesting videos. The cryptocurrency circle naturally joined in the excitement, and the meme of the same name first appeared on Solana on September 11.
Contract address:
ED5nyyWEzpPPiWimP8vYm7sD7TD3LAt3Q3gRTWHzPJBY
Reasons for optimism:
1. Coinbase has launched MOODENG, which has the potential to be listed on Binance;
2. This is one of the few original animal memes in this round, and it is highly discussed in overseas communities, and has the potential to restart the zoo craze.
Price performance:
