Editor's Note: This is a new column of Followin, focusing on the MEME track, especially introducing the newly emerged and high-profile MEME coins of the day.
On Sunday, Musk went crazy with tweets, even directly mentioning MEME, and new and old coins related to the SOL chain were flying all over the place, but PVP was too fierce, and the wealth effect was generally not good.
In contrast, the BSC chain and the BASE chain have been really strong recently, with several MEME coins rising continuously, with good sustainability and popularity. What happened?
Cheems market cap exceeds $230 million, are they all waiting for Binance to list it?
Cheems market cap is $267 million, continuously hitting new highs, up 31% in the last 24 hours. Trading volume ranks 2nd on the BSC chain. The number of token holders is 46,000.
Cheems is a very traditional and typical MEME, just like Doge, a MEME with a dog as its image. There is not much narrative element under new concepts.
But this Cheems has a group of very active and steadfast Chinese KOLs participating in the promotion, which may be its relatively special place, such as Christian2022.eth, the honest Mr. Ma, and Professor Shuo.
Cheems was launched on the BSC chain in September, with only one decent pullback, and it has been rising almost all the time. This trend is very easy to hold on to and not easy to be shaken off.
Recently, Binance has listed MEME coins multiple times, but has not listed any MEME coins on the BSC chain. Therefore, Cheems may benefit from this expectation and perform strongly.

Musk's Starship concept coin BANANA, failed on SOL chain, rising on BSC chain
The image of the BANANA coin is a banana, derived from the image Musk drew on the Starship, and the coin was first born on the SOL chain, where it was very popular after its birth, but later fell and fell, and now has a market cap of only about $4 million.
The BSC chain issued the coin a few days later, and the advantage is that it came later and rose up, currently exceeding $50 million in market cap.
The development of this BANANA on the BSC chain is quite dramatic, the popularity is actually general, but the pump is fierce, so it is considered that there is a conspiracy group behind it manipulating the market.
In any case, the surge of this coin on the BSC chain may also be a reflection of the strength of the MEME coins on the BSC chain.
Currently, the trading volume of this coin ranks first on the BSC chain. The number of token holders is 16,000.

WHY quietly broke new highs, KOMA also approached new highs
Cheems and Banana are currently the two strongest coins on the BSC. But the rise of MEME coins on the BSC chain is not entirely due to these two.
Including WHY, this elephant MEME coin had previously fallen violently, and many people thought it was beyond redemption, but recently it has surged, with a market cap breaking through $140 million, setting a new high.
And the small dog MEME coin KOMA is also approaching its historical high, with a market cap exceeding $50 million.
All in all, the BSC chain has given people a rather fierce feeling recently.
Clanker's market cap exceeds $55M, AI blooms on Base chain
Clanker is an AI agent based on the Base chain social product Farcaster, and is also a MEME launcher, jokingly called the pump.fun of Farcaster. Users can complete coin issuance by conversing with it.
The Clanker token is the first token it has issued, and its market value has surpassed $50M today, with a 66% increase in 24 hours. Its trading volume has been at the forefront of the BASE chain.
Dune data shows that the trading volume on the Clanker platform has been around 400 million in the past two days, while Pump.fun's monthly volume is about 6 billion.
Other popular MEME tokens released on Clanker include LUM, whose community used Clanker to launch the Higher token; and ANON, which became famous due to purchases by figures like Vitalik.
The surge in Clanker's issued tokens has driven the platform's price increase, and this is the current situation.
In comparison, BASE chain MEME tokens are not as widely known on Twitter as SOL chain MEME tokens, and they are more widely disseminated on Farcaster. Additionally, these popular BASE chain MEME tokens seem to have a slower pump speed but stronger sustainability compared to SOL.
In fact, there are multiple MEME launchers on the BASE chain, such as VIRTUAL, a platform specifically for launching AI MEME tokens, with a market cap of around $250 million.

LUCE and ai16Z Strongly Rebounded
Today, two relatively well-known cryptocurrencies have started to rebound, one of which is LUCE, with a current market value of $150 million and a 36% increase in 24 hours. However, there is no specific news.
The market value of ai16Z has returned to around $200 million, with a 20% increase in 24 hours. Its rise is due to positive news from the official, who announced that in order to focus 100% on the ai16z and degenai tokens, they will temporarily suspend any work that diverts attention, and focus on launching the AI trader. ai16z and AI Combinator will be completely separated.
In addition, among the MEME tokens that have already been listed on Binance, GOAT, PNUT, and ACT have moved in the opposite direction of the overall market, with a slight rebound. For example, PNUT has increased by 12%.
