Shiba Inu (SHIB): Whale Activity Signals Renewed Bullish Cycle
On May 8, SHIB recorded a seven-day high of 6.71 trillion tokens moved across the network, hinting at renewed investor interest. Even more significant was the 2,952% jump in inflows to whale wallets, from 238.91 billion to 6.42 trillion SHIB in just 24 hours.
Currently trading above its 200-day EMA at $0.00001614, SHIB shows signs of entering a fresh bullish cycle.
dogwifhat (WIF): Technical Breakout Points to Further Upside
After breaking above its 100-day EMA at $0.76, WIF surged by 43.14%, trading around $1.24 and breaking past a crucial resistance at $0.79. If bullish momentum continues, WIF could target its weekly resistance at $1.44.
With meme culture still obsessed with dog-themed tokens and WIF’s strong technical breakout, it stands out as a top contender.
Popcat (POPCAT): Cultural Relevance Drives Strong Community
Built on the massive popularity of the viral Popcat meme, POPCAT has transformed internet humor into a fast-rising crypto brand. The coin is enjoying a 16% daily surge, backed by an intensely loyal community and an aggressive meme-marketing strategy.
As one of the most culturally relevant coins of the year, Popcat blends entertainment and investment in a way few others can.
FLOKI: Trendline Break Signals Strong Momentum
FLOKI recently broke a descending trendline that’s been in place since mid-December, resulting in a 44% surge over two days. Now trading above its 200-day EMA at $0.00011, FLOKI could soon test the next resistance at $0.00015.
While the RSI indicates an overbought condition, it also signals strong momentum. If FLOKI closes above the EMA on a daily basis, expect further upside.
Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT): Character Branding Resonates
With a 24% price jump in the past 24 hours, PNUT shows that character-driven branding has real value in crypto. Young investors are resonating with Peanut’s playful, community-first approach.
