Analysts Doubt Memecoins’ Role in Crypto Bull Run, Recommend OP and ALGT

DATE POSTED:May 5, 2024

Memecoins Like WIF and SHIB Will Not Encourage a Crypto Bull Run, Analyst Recommends OP and ALGT Instead

Despite the popularity of memecoins like WIF and SHIB, market analysts believe these tokens will not drive the next cryptocurrency bull run. Experts suggest that their inherent volatility and lack of foundational projects limit their potential for sustainable growth. 

Instead, analysts are pointing towards tokens like OP and ALGT, which are backed by solid technological foundations and real-world applications. These recommendations come as investors seek more stable and promising opportunities in the crypto space, aiming to capitalize on tokens with substantial use cases and development activities.

Dogwifhat and Shiba Inu: Contrasting trajectories in the memecoin market

Dogwifhat (WIF) has experienced a meteoric rise, with its price soaring by an astounding 195,510.3% in just five months, showing no signs of slowing down. 

Recently, the memecoin has seen a significant uptick, climbing from $2.70 to $3.54 in a single week, sparking optimistic sentiments about its potential to close 2024 at $5. This rapid ascent positions Dogwifhat as one of the most promising memecoins currently on the market.

Conversely, Shiba Inu (SHIB), despite being one of the most recognized cryptocurrencies, has struggled to maintain momentum. The broader crypto market downturn, exacerbated by the recent sentencing of Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao to four months in prison for money laundering, has impacted SHIB significantly. 

The coin has witnessed a decline of 13% over the past week and 19% over the past month. For SHIB to reach higher valuations, a crucial step would be addressing its massive supply, which remains a significant barrier to its growth.

Optimism (OP): A promising layer-two scaling solution for Ethereum

Optimism functions as a layer-two blockchain solution aimed at enhancing the scalability of the Ethereum network. It operates directly on top of the Ethereum mainnet and employs optimistic rollups to boost transaction throughput while maintaining the security features of the base layer. This innovative approach significantly reduces transaction fees and improves processing speeds.

Currently, Optimism is priced at $2.72, reflecting an 8.30% increase in the last 24 hours. Over the past year, the token has appreciated by 26%, suggesting a robust market sentiment. The price now stands above its 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), reinforcing the bullish outlook among traders. Despite a market dominance of just 0.03%, Optimism shows potential for stability with a 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 56.88, which may indicate a possible period of sideways movement. The token has demonstrated low volatility, with 43% of the days in the last month showing positive returns. Additionally, the volume-to-market cap ratio of 2.6525 highlights significant investor engagement and high liquidity in the market.

Optimism hosts key DeFi protocols such as Synthetix (SNX), Uniswap (UNI), and Velodrome (VELO), and boasts over $500 million in total value locked (TVL). This extensive adoption facilitates seamless interactions with decentralized finance applications and decentralized exchanges on the Optimism network, offering users faster transactions and lower fees compared to those on the Ethereum mainnet.

Algotech (ALGT) rises as a key player in crypto market with AI-enhanced trading

Along with OP, Algotech (ALGT) is rapidly gaining traction in the cryptocurrency market.
