Where is meme coin hype today?

If the leaders don't see a volume spike, I'm not listening to a single small-cap coin story.

For meme coins, first check whether the leaders have volume, then see whether the small caps dare to follow.

PEPE 0.00000536 (+4.48%), BONK 0.00000281 (+0.36%), SHIB 0.00000443 (-0.23%), DOGE 0.0691 (-0.68%)

For comparison: BTC 73904 (24h -0.90%).

PEPE is up +4.48% over 24h, clearly outperforming BTC at -0.90%, which points to independent buying. But WIF is only down -1.13%, so there's no sector-wide confirmation. Stick to the leaders; don't fantasize about laggards catching up.

BTC is still at 73904 (-0.90%). Until BTC gets above 74,495, I'll treat any right-side meme action as noise.

The switch for meme coins is BTC: until it gets above 75568, I won't treat gains in small caps as a sector move.

Useful bit: Basis = futures price minus spot price. With a positive basis, longs are paying.
Food for thought: Nasdaq is clearly outperforming the S&P 500: stick with growth's higher beta; don't spin it as a broad bull market.
