Memecoin Market Rebound: $50 Billion Rally Signals Potential Altcoin Season
The memecoin market is showing signs of resurgence after a year of decline. The "memecoin dominance" ratio, which tracks the sector's share of the total altcoin market, has reversed course from historic lows. The total market capitalization of meme assets has reclaimed the $50 billion mark, with tokens like PEPE, BONK, and FLOKI experiencing double-digit gains. Data from CryptoQuant indicates that meme tokens accounted for 11% of the total altcoin market capitalization at their peak but fell to 3.2% by December 2025. According to data from Santiment, the collective market capitalization of meme coins jumped more than 20.8% in the first week of the year, pushing the sector’s total value above $45.3 billion.
