Recently, the performance of MEME coins has truly been eye-catching. DOGE surged 12% in a single day to break through $0.14, PEPE skyrocketed by 39%, and even TURBO followed suit with a 30% increase. The entire MEME sector seems to have entered a carnival mode.

Why is this happening? I’ve carefully analyzed the situation, and there are indeed some logical supports behind it.

First, let's talk about DOGE. On-chain data shows that a mysterious whale recently swept up 150 million DOGE in one go. At the same time, liquidity instantly increased after a major exchange launched its futures products, and institutional funds are quietly positioning themselves. This is one aspect.

But even more interesting is the progress on the application side. Buenos Aires, Argentina, has started accepting DOGE for municipal tax payments—this means DOGE is gradually moving from a pure MEME coin to practical use cases, which is a significant shift. Technically, a bullish divergence appeared on the daily chart, the key level of $0.12 was broken, trading volume surged by 41.53%, and market cap approached $22 billion. Elon Musk’s ecosystem integration expectations on X platform are also continuing to ferment.

PEPE’s situation is more community-driven. A single phrase from the official account, "We start at dawn," ignited a meme frenzy across the internet, and retail investors’ FOMO was fully unleashed, with 24-hour trading volume skyrocketing by 370%. More importantly, the short squeeze—after the price precisely broke through the key resistance at $0.000005, 2.6 million short stop-loss orders were triggered instantly, creating a positive cycle of "short squeeze → rise → more stop-losses." Renowned trader James Wynn even set a 40x target price (corresponding to a $69 billion market cap), further expanding market imagination.

TURBO’s comeback demonstrates a combination of AI + community + traffic. After integrating AI community assistants, user interaction volume skyrocketed by 500%, forming a growth flywheel of "play AI → earn tokens → invite new users." The New Year theme event, "Year of the Toad," went viral, attracting large-scale migration of old MEME community users like SHIB. Plus, over ten mainstream exchanges went live simultaneously, directly boosting liquidity and making it an ideal target for capital rotation.

Interestingly, the logic behind these three coins’ rapid rise is actually quite different. DOGE is more about fundamentals + institutional participation; PEPE is purely community + technical analysis; TURBO is about product innovation + ecosystem expansion.

The question now is, how far can this MEME rally go? Can DOGE challenge $0.3? Will PEPE replicate its all-time high? Or will new contenders like TURBO continue to take the lead? Honestly, MEME coins are inherently unpredictable; their rise and fall depend entirely on market sentiment and community enthusiasm. But from the perspectives of technicals, capital, and applications, there are indeed stories to tell. The key is to understand your own risk tolerance and not get blinded by soaring numbers.
