  • Meme coin sector rallies as PEPE gains 50.9% and BONK surges 44.2% over 7 days.
  • Social volume data shows increased trader attention toward PEPE, POPCAT, and MOG.
  • DOGE, SHIB, and PENGU post double-digit weekly gains amid renewed retail interest.

Santiment social volume data reveals the crypto community’s attention has shifted toward meme coins during early 2026. The data tracking platform reported increased interest in tokens like PEPE, POPCAT, and MOG following strong price gains across the sector. The meme coin market capitalization increased quickly and attracted traders after a challenging 2025.

Community-driven hype cycles are moving markets again despite extended bearish sentiment during the previous year. Well-known meme coins including DOGE, PEPE, and SHIB are rallying as retail traders return to speculative positions. Social volume metrics measure discussion frequency across cryptocurrency platforms and provide insight into which assets are getting trader attention.

Performance data confirms the patterns identified in Santiment’s social metrics. PEPE gained 45.9% over seven days despite a 7% decline in the past 24 hours. The token currently trades at $0.000006277 and ranks 50th by market capitalization.

BONK posted a 38% weekly advance while declining 7% over 24 hours. The Solana-based meme token trades at $0.00001064 and holds rank 105. Pudgy Penguins (PENGU) climbed 31% over seven days while falling 4% from the previous day, currently priced at $01156.

Shiba Inu gained 20% over the weekly period, trading at $0.000008696. The token declined 4% over 24 hours while posting 0.9% hourly gains. SHIB maintains rank 34 among all cryptocurrencies by market capitalization.

Dogecoin advanced 15% over seven days to reach $0.1392. The original meme token holds rank 10 and posted a 4% daily decline. Official Trump token climbed 13.0% weekly to $5.34, ranking 97th.

Meme coin sector shows mixed short-term movement

MemeCore (M) posted modest 3.3% weekly gains to $1.63 while ranking 49th. The token gained 3.1% over one hour but declined 3.0% over 24 hours. Pump.fun gained 7.1% weekly despite falling 14.8% over 24 hours and 0.8% hourly. The token trades at $0.002102.

Crypto sentiment data from CryptoRank identified MELANIA, BELIEVE, and KDA as anti-leaders during the period. These tokens posted poor performance relative to the sector, with some facing operational shutdowns or technical issues. The correlation between social volume spikes and price rallies suggests retail trader sentiment is driving current meme coin momentum

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
