🚀 PEPE, FUN, and BONK Dominate CoinGecko’s Top Trending Cryptos – Here’s Why

Meme coins aren't just surviving—they're thriving. PEPE, FUN, and BONK just bulldozed their way to the top of CoinGecko's trending list, proving once again that crypto's wild west phase is far from over.

### Frogs, Games, and Dogs: The Unstoppable Trio

While Wall Street sweats over inflation data, degens are doubling down on tokens named after internet jokes. PEPE's frog-themed hype, FUN's play-to-earn chaos, and BONK's Solana-powered doge energy are outpacing 'serious' projects—again.

### The Meme Economy Strikes Back

No whitepapers. No revenue models. Just pure, uncut speculative mania—and trading volumes that'd make a Goldman Sachs quant blush. These tokens collectively prove one thing: in crypto, the 'dumb money' often moves faster (and smarter) than the suits.

### Bottom Line

Another day, another reminder that crypto markets prioritize vibes over fundamentals. Meanwhile, Bitcoin ETFs sit gathering dust like your grandpa's stamp collection.

CoinGecko has published its new ranking of the most popular cryptocurrencies, with a combination of low-cap and high-cap tokens attracting high interest in the market. It includes both old staples and newcomers, with tokens such as Bittensor ($TAO), Toncoin ($TON), and Pepe ($PEPE) amongst the leaders.
