Bitcoin and Ethereum struggle under key resistance on Friday. Meanwhile, meme coins on Layer 2 chain Base and The Boy’s Club coins, like Pepe and PepeCoin, observe gains. Base-based meme coins and The Boy’s Club coins stand out from others in crypto as the sector yields nearly 25% gains in the last 24 hours.

CoinGecko data shows double-digit rallies in most meme coins on Base and The Boy’s Club on Friday. 

Top five meme coin picks

Brett (BRETT), Toshi (TOSHI), Degen Base (DEGEN), Pepe (PEPE), and PepeCoin (PEPECOIN) have posted double-digit gains in the last 24 hours, per CoinGecko data. The meme coin narrative returned after Donald Trump Jr.’s recent comments on the sector. 

Donald Trump Jr. unveiled plans to launch a new decentralized finance (DeFi) cryptocurrency platform to boost access to banking. The entrepreneur spoke about the project in a Q&A session.

Trump said that he respects meme coins and teased a large-scale decentralized project that would take on the sector. The category extends gains on Friday after a weeklong correction following the crypto market crash on Monday.

While meme coins lead the recovery in crypto, with 24-hour trade volumes returning to pre-crash levels, Murad, a meme coin analyst behind the handle of @MustStopMurad on X, warned traders of the next phase of the meme coin supercycle. 

As assets in the category extend their gains and capture a larger share of the market, Murad argues that more investors, whales, and funds are likely to start launching their own meme coins and work with X- based influencers to hype their token launches. 

Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, Pepe, Dogwifhat comeback from correction

Dogecoin (DOGE), Shiba Inu (SHIB), Pepe (PEPE), and Dogwifhat (WIF), considered the blue-chip memes among the rest in the category, started their recovery in the last 24 hours. After nearly double-digit declines this week, the meme coins have noted a surge in trade volume and on-chain activity.
