The first half of 2024 is likely to be remembered as the “meme coin era” for many years to come. Solana-based BONK, WIF and BOME, as well as Ethereum-based PEPE, FLOKI and MEME have made their mark so far this year.
However, even though the first half of the year is over, the interest in meme coins does not seem to have diminished. Finally, the new ATH of Binance’s own token, BNB, may have made the BSC network the new address of traders. As it is known, the network’s payments are made with BNB. Therefore, the meme coins here are also bought with BNB.
181% increase
On-chain tracking firm Lookonchain found that 5 major BSC wallets bought the meme coin WHY. The 5 wallets received a total of 779 BNB (approximately $534,000) and 14.9 trillion WHY tokens. The total value of these meme tokens reached $1.3 million in a short time. The rise of the WHY meme token since overnight hours has also reached 181%.
The coin, which was released in April, has risen more than 500% in the last 1 month.
