DOGE up 4% over the week, PEPE up 15.67%. Same meme track—yet the gap is a bit ridiculous.
This week, PEPE has been the real rotation: $207M in 24-hour trading volume, about an 18.5% market-cap turnover. SHIB, DOGE, and BONK together can’t make up that number. With a $12.7B market cap, DOGE only managed 4% in a week. LFG shouted all year—so where is LFG, exactly?
SHIB is the most interesting “contrast monster” this week. On the surface: down 22.26% year-on-year, looks like it’s done for. Under the hood: Dune data shows that over the past 7 days, DEX buys exceeded sells by $30.39M, with demand skewed +69.82%. Nomura’s Laser Digital Japan lists SHIB among 6 compliant assets—the money hasn’t come in yet, but the list is already there.
Most intriguing is PLUMBER. Cobie posted a plumber meme on X, and Ansem jumped in to counter the old-school “gunner” vs the plumber. Within three hours, someone posted a PLUMBER token—and it surged 10,000%. In the meme scene there are no “old guns”—only people who update the memes too slowly.
Depends on which side you’re on.
