“Canine-Inspired Memecoins Regain Favour in the Eyes of Investors”

The value of the newest such memecoin Bonk (BONK), a Shiba Inu-themed Solana token, has increased by over 400% on the month, according to CoinMarketCap data. The Bonk hype has faded since, but other Solana-based memecoins like Dogwifhat (WIF) have also benefited a lot from the interest. The token currently has a market cap of around $218 million, according to CoinGecko data. Still, these market moves are signaling that retail interest and appetite is turning toward crypto again after a prolonged bear market. Previously, Warden worked at the Milken Institute and oversaw initiatives relating to capital market development, fintech financial inclusion, cryptocurrencies and blockchain.
