The meme coin supercycle is underway, spurred by Bitcoin’s ascent to $100,000.
The Bitcoin price has hit another new all-time high of $84,000 at press time, resulting in a sharp bounce in Dogecoin, Shiba Inu and Dogwifhat. BTC is now 19% away from hitting the 6-figure mark.
However, the popular crypto influencer Murad Mahmudov believes that the meme coin parabolic bull run is just getting started. He projects that most high-quality memes will peak somewhere between $20 billion and $100 billion in 2025.
The Big Memecoin winners of this cycle are here right now.

Meme Coin Supercycle - 3 Predictions For 2025
Meme tokens are expected to continue their parabolic bull run in 2025, owing to their high demand among whales and retailers alike.
We list 3 predictions for the meme coin sector for 2025.
Dogecoin Will Hit $100B In January 2025
If Murad’s $100 billion projection is true, Dogecoin is expected to be the first meme coin to hit the mark.
The Dogecoin price is already up by nearly 200% in the past month, with Donald Trump’s big win acting as a major catalyst in its growth. It is currently trading at $0.32, with a market capitalization of $47 billion.
However, experts believe that DOGE’s parabolic run isn’t over. For instance, prominent crypto trader Bluntz believes that the meme coin market leader is poised for a move to $1, which would push it past the $100 billion mark.
if only someone had been banging the $doge drum for some time now.😎

$1 is not the meme you think it is. https://t.co/fiMnajlwbi pic.twitter.com/GNg86sy0kx
He also believes that DOGE’s excellent liquidity will be a major advantage for it, especially if institutions decide to stack meme coins.
Bluntz’s $1 projection isn’t a pipe dream. Dogecoin remains Elon Musk’s favourite meme coin, the world’s richest man who is set to be a part of Trump’s new administration. Musk is even calling his office the Department of Government Efficiency or DOGE.
In the lead-up to Donald Trump’s inauguration on January 20th, the Dogecoin price could continue to deliver outsized returns, potentially even hitting the $100 billion mark.
Pepe Will Hit $50B, Flip Shiba Inu
The Pepe coin is poised to flip Shiba Inu and become the second-largest meme coin in 2025.
PEPE has rallied by 770% year-to-date, as compared to the 150% growth in Shiba Inu. In fact, SHIB is heavily underperforming DOGE as well.
Meanwhile, the Pepe coin is poised for an explosive move. After all, it is an excellent beta play on Ethereum, with some smart money investors even viewing it as leveraged ETH.
As a result, prominent investors believe that PEPE could reach a market capitalization of over $50 billion in 2025.
First $ETH target will be around $8,000

That will catapult $PEPE to +50B market cap.

In such a scenario, it would not be a surprise if it flips Shiba Inu and even give Dogecoin a run for its money in the coming months.
New Meme Coins Will Delive Outsized Returns
New meme coins will play a major role in the meme coin supercycle. Smart money investors are already seeing anywhere between 10x to 100x returns from these low-cap gems, a trend which is expected to continue well into 2025.
There is a reason why Binance has listed several coins like First Neiro On Ethereum, Moo Deng and Peanut The Squirrel, all of which had a market capitalization of under $100 million at the time of their listing.
Investors are already frantically searching for the next 100x meme coin. It is not without any reason that presale coins like Pepe Unchained (PEPU) are in high demand. In fact, PEPU has already raised over $26 million in its presale funding, higher than NEIRO’s market cap at the time of its Binance listing.
We are floored with the support coming in for PEPU! 🔥

26 million hit with no signs of slowing down, this community is #1!! 🐸💚 pic.twitter.com/zyxceMDwxJ
Smart money investors are bullish on Pepe Unchained’s high-utility nature, considering it is launching its own Layer-2 ecosystem with a meme coin launchpad.
PEPU holders will soon enjoy extremely low trading costs, instant transactions and cutting-edge tools like custom DEX, block explorer and advanced analytics. Meanwhile, presale buyers are already earning an APY of over 90% with its staking protocol.
Unsurprisingly, prominent crypto influencers are bullish on its upside potential, with many eyeing 100x returns from it.
