(PRESS RELEASE – Dubai, UAE, February 26, 2024)
CoinMarketCap's crypto Awards 2024, the first edition of a new annual event, is captivating the global crypto community. This is especially true in the Meme Coin Of The Year category, where voting has become a battleground for the most passionate and vibrant communities in the crypto space.
Fans of Pepe, Bonk, Milady, Memecoin, and ORDI would love to see their token crowned Meme Coin of the Year by CoinMarketCap, the “home of cryptocurrencies” and the world's most trusted source of crypto data. But for many cryptocurrency enthusiasts, it's not just about the value of the coins, but about identifying with the specific cultural narratives that fuel each community.
Pepe – When Pepe the Frog first appeared online in 2005, no one could predict how big he would become. What started as a meme transformed into an internet icon adopted by all online communities. The launch of the Pepe coin in 2023 turned nearly 20 years of memes into a billion-dollar market debut. As the project stated, 'the dogs have had their day, it's time for Pepe to take the reins'
bonk – Bonk was nothing short of a Christmas miracle for the Solana community in 2021. His prominent branding and appealing meme quickly won over the market, amassing a dedicated following. The token emerged as a symbol of unity in the Solana community. The creators framed it as “the true community currency of Solana,” an effort to give power back to those who enrich the ecosystem from the ground up. By staying true to its community values, the token kept its cultural momentum strong.
Milady – Riding the wave of her “neochibi-style” NFTs, Milady caused a stir comparable to giants like DOGE, further amplified by a call from Elon Musk. Milady sits at the intersection of finance, art, and Internet culture, showing how artistic creativity can foster a thriving, engaged community in the web3 age.
memecoin – Spearheaded by Ray Chan of 9GAG, Memecoin captures the essence of the leap from meme culture to the financial sphere. It's a testament to how viral content, backed by an understanding of internet humor, can create a bridge into the cryptocurrency market.
ORDI -The introduction of ORDI as the first meme coin on the bitcoin blockchain highlights the crypto community's appetite for innovation. It's a move that combined the established credibility of bitcoin with the new appeal of meme culture, opening new avenues for engagement and participation in the ecosystem.
