Meme coin market ‘oversold’ as Solana rises
The meme coin market continues to stay on the agenda with Pepe Coin, which has been rallying since April, and then new projects. However, the trend started to lose momentum in May. According to market analysis firm Kaiko, the daily trading volume of meme coins has dropped significantly from $1 billion to nearly $500 million.
Kaiko stated that this 50% drop was due to investors taking profits and moving from meme tokens.
The chart shared by Kaiko shows that Dogecoin (DOGE) has taken the worst hit in terms of daily trading volume. DOGE’s trading volume reached almost $1.5 billion from late March to early April. However, it fell below $0.5 billion earlier this month.
However, it seems that the DOGE hysteria has only moved on to the newly released meme coin PEPE. Earlier this month, PEPE volume exceeded $1 billion, according to CoinMarketCap. Currently, the 24-hour trading volume is $996,129,278. cryptocoin.com As we have reported, on May 13, Elon Musk rally again with his tweet.
Bitcoin sees disinterest from its long-term investors
While Solana is the key altcoin performance of the week, data shows that Bitcoin is losing its long-term investors. According to the latest data from Glassnode, Bitcoin (BTC) has hit a 10-month low in terms of the number of Bitcoin outputs spent after one to two days of inactivity.
This metric measures the number of Bitcoin outputs spent in the last seven days after at least one and two years of inactivity.
According to Glassnode data, the metric hit 164,214 on May 13, the lowest level since July 13, 2022. It also suggests that long-term investors sell or transfer. This shows a lack of confidence in Bitcoin’s long-term growth prospects among some investors. Additionally, it is interpreted that some investors are turning to the short-term view on BTC.
