Solana Memecoin Explosion: Why WIF Price is Skyrocketing Now!
coinpedia.org 23 August 2024 11:22, UTC The meme coin industry, led by Dogecoin (DOGE), is currently valued at about $40 billion, with a daily average traded volume of around $3.14 billion. The Solana (SOL) network remains a top-performing layer one (L1) chain, heavily influenced by its meme coin ecosystem led by dogwifhat (WIF), and Bonk (BONK).
According to the latest crypto data, the Solana-based meme coins have a total market cap of about $6.4 billion and a daily average traded volume of about $1.3 billion.
Dogwifhat Whales Increases Appetite
The recent approval of two spot Solana ETFs in Brazil has set the stage right for further mainstream adoption of SOL-based projects. Furthermore, an altseason is anticipated on the horizon as the Bitcoin dominance continues to form a macro bearish reversal pattern.

As it stands with the rest of the crypto market led by Bitcoin (BTC), WIF price has been bleeding for the past five months. The mid-cap meme coin, with a fully diluted valuation of about $1.6 billion and a daily average traded volume of around $440 million, has been forming a falling wedge, which is often followed by a major bullish uproar.
From a technical standpoint, the WIF price against the US dollar must regain the 50-day Moving Average (MA) as a support level to invalidate further bleeding ahead.
