📉 After the FOMC interest rate cuts, both crypto and equities traders were left feeling a bit concerned. Not because of the current cuts, but due to Jerome Powell's projection for 2025 to have half the amount of rate cuts as expected.

Altcoins, in particular, have gotten hammered over the past 24 hours. Assets like Avalanche (-16%), Chainlink (-16%) Litecoin (-16%), and Pepe (-17%) have pulled back considerably over the past 24 hours. If this was indeed an overreaction, there is a reasonable chance that the projects with the biggest drops will be the ones worth taking the biggest dip buy chances on.

🐶🐸😺 Meme coins are quietly having more mini breakouts this weekend. For coins like Dogecoin, Pepe, Dogwifhat, and Bonk, the larger wallets could continue to pump market caps longer until retail FOMO returns. Once the crowd catches wind and get greedy, the larger wallets sell and prices generally retrace shortly after.

Monitor these 4 meme coins here on this chart, and see how the crowd's speculative nature will continue to choose their fates.

🐳 According to the Santiment Centralized Exchange Deposits Dashboard, some of the largest trasnfers of altcoins include Eigenlayer ($2.8M), Ethena ($2.5M), Worldcoin ($2.0M), Wrapped Bitcoin ($4.8M), Pepe ($3.0M), and Chainlink ($1.8M).

When large levels of an asset's supply suddenly get moved to exchanges, it is a sign that a whale has intent to sell off a portion of their coin holdings. Though Bitcoin's continued ascent may minimize the impact of any tops for these respective altcoins, be aware of projects on this list being at greater risk of (at least) temporary retraces.

🗣️ The top trending tokens in crypto are being dominated by meme coins as speculative assets dominate this historic bull rally. The top 6 notable assets seeing significantly higher discussion rates across social media are PNUT, PEPE, DOGE, MEME, NUX, and COIN. Bitcoin sits at #7.

😹🐶 Meme coins have undoubtedly netted the best returns over the past week for traders with DOGE (+96%), PEPE (+97%), WIF (+67%), & BONK (+67%) leading the way.

Historically high speculative asset social dominance typically indicates greed and emotional trading. Be cautious while memes are the main cryptocurrency topic of interest across X, Reddit, Telegram, 4Chan, and BitcoinTalk.

🐻 Crypto markets have corrected alongside equities as traders increase speculation that the bull rally has come to an end. With crowd optimism transitioning to doubt, these are the $500M+ market cap projects showing the best upside based on buying into the crowd FUD:

1 Chainlink $LINK
2 Bitcoin $BTC
3 Goatseus Maximus $GOAT
4 Dogecoin $DOGE
5 Ripple $XRP
6 Pepe $PEPE
7 Filecoin $FIL
8 ShibainuCoin $SHIB
9 Eigenlayer $EIGEN
10 BuildOnBeam $BEAM

Cryptocurrency is still very much a speculative sector, even for the most established projects. Markets typically move the opposite direction of the crowd's expectation, meaning the bearish narratives surrounding these coins can lead to rewarding results for those willing to go against the crowd selloffs that are beginning to mount.

🐶🤕 Meme coins like Dogecoin (+12%) and Bonk (+13%) have been major stories Wednesday, with spikes in prices across the sector. Speculative assets continue churning as Bitcoin profits get redistributed. Altcoins can continue to grow as long as crowd FOMO doesn't get in the way.
