The 2024 meme coin season, which started with BONK and PEPE and continued with coins such as WIF, SLERF and BOME, is still ongoing despite the new year approaching. While meme coins such as POPCAT, TURBO, NEIRO and PONKE have been talked about a lot lately, whale purchases have also been reflected in blockchain data.
According to data provided by Lookonchain, three whales made significant purchases of meme coins last night.
The whale that earned millions of dollars made new investments
In September, a whale that attracted attention with its POPCAT tokens realized its profit during the night hours. This whale, who sold $3.9 million worth of POPCAT, bought another Solana-based meme coin, GIGA, with $1.5 million of the money he earned. The whale sold the POPCAT token, which peaked at $1.42, for $1.36 and made a profit of $3.9 million.

SUNDOG, which attracted great attention after Justin Sun started the meme coin craze on the TRON network, has also become one of the coins preferred by whales. Another whale paid $500,000 last night to buy 1.66 million SUNDOG tokens. Launched in August, SUNDOG has gained more than 500% since its first day.
$4 million worth of TURBO purchases in one week
Another whale wallet added 695 million TURBO worth $4.2 million to its wallet that it opened last week. TURBO, which was listed on the Binance exchange in recent weeks, has been attracting great interest since last year. This whale's purchases also took place on the Binance exchange.
