In recent days, there has been an interesting phenomenon—trading activity for old-school Meme coins like DOGE, PEPE, and BONK has suddenly surged.

On one hand, mainstream coins are indeed on the rise; Bitcoin has already reached the $91,000 mark, and Ethereum is also climbing. This kind of surge in mainstream coins can itself boost overall market participation.

But there is a contrasting point: in the past, when Bitcoin experienced a big rally, Meme coins tended to be overlooked or even decline. The current situation is a bit different—funds seem to be chasing mainstream coins while also looking back at these old Meme tokens.

To determine whether this is truly the season of altcoins, the key is whether the actual market volume and collective market consensus can be sustained. Short-term hype is one thing; long-term trends are another.

DOGE-1,56%

PEPE-2,43%

BONK-3,66%

BTC-1,04%

Tsk, this time it's really interesting, and it seems like the funds are starting to loosen up. Old coins being able to outperform simultaneously suggests that this round might truly be a comprehensive market trend. But I remain cautious; short-term hype is often deceptive. Let's wait and see how the funding situation develops over the next two weeks.

I really think this wave of meme coin rebound isn't that simple; there may indeed be institutions quietly positioning themselves. Where there are many people, I just put a question mark. I've seen too many tricks of cutting leeks, so being cautious is never wrong. DOGE being pushed this high feels like the risk is accumulating.

This time it's different. The funds are indeed chasing two ends at the same time, indicating that retail investors are starting to get smarter.

The surge in mainstream coins can still boost old Memes, and this time it really feels a bit different. But honestly, how long the funds can be sustained is the real question.

Wow, DOGE's rise is indeed interesting. It feels like this wave of Meme coins is a bit different. --- Mainstream coins driving altcoins to rebound—could it be another scythe? --- The key is whether it can be sustained; short-term surges don't mean much. --- In the past, Bitcoin rose while Meme coins fell; now they are rising together? New tactics. --- Capital size is the core; popularity is easy to dissipate, and consensus is hard to maintain. --- DOGE, PEPE, BONK rising together—this time, it won't be another flash in the pan, right? --- It's a bit tempting, but I'll wait and see if it can break new highs before making any moves.

whale accumulation patterns shifting... meme coins moving in parallel with btc usually signals deeper capital reallocation. either we're seeing real portfolio diversification or just noise. the real tell is transaction velocity on these addresses—if holding patterns stick, then yeah, maybe altseason's got legs this time. if it's just retail fomo chasing green candles, we know how that ends.
