The Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH)-based token spiked nearly 7%, claiming the top spot among large-cap meme coins over the past 24 hours. PEPE’s trading volume surged 57% to $328 million over the last 24 hours, signaling high buying pressure.
Solana (CRYPTO: SOL)-based Bonk (CRYPTO: BONK) followed closely, rallying 6.13% in the last 24 hours. NFT-related Pudgy Penguins (CRYPTO: PENGU) jumped over 4%, and so did Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE), the world’s largest memecoin by market capitalization and daily volume.

Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: SHIB), another meme heavyweight, piled on the momentum with a 3.78% spike over the past 24 hours.
The overall memecoin market capitalization rose 1.98% in the last 24 hours to $31.88 billion, although total volumes declined by 9.87%.
More than $6 billion in investor wealth has been wiped out of the memecoin market in 2026, extending the sector’s catastrophic 60% decline from last year.
The Sunday spike rode a broader market relief rally, as blue-chip leaders like Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) surged beyond $74,000—its first time in nearly six weeks.
