A pre-Bitcoin-halving crypto market surge has ignited a meme coin rush amongst investors, but some have outperformed others.
This article will provide an analysis of current meme coin price trends and look to see whether a newer AI crypto coin, Scotty the AI, represents a more promising investment opportunity at this time.
This meme coin pump and “old” coin pump is bringing a lot of retail back into the market.
This is obviously bullish for prices overall.
But it’s also reflexive.
Price goes up > retail comes back > retail buy “old” coins that pumped last bull/meme coins etc.
Take note.

The return of large-scale retail participation in meme coin markets has been highlighted by prominent crypto analysts as a bullish market for the year ahead, with recent pumps for old-school meme coins such as Dogecoin (DOGE), Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Pepecoin (PEPE) spotlighting favorites for new retail investors.
Dogecoin (DOGE): Top Meme Coin Makes 102% Monthly Gain
Legendary token Dogecoin (DOGE) has climbed an eye-watering +86% over the past week, amidst a large-scale bounce from 20DMA support.
Now trading at a market price of $0.16 (representing a 24-hour gain of +5.55%), DOGE has delivered an impressive +102% return over the past month due to its prominent market position as the largest cryptocurrency.
Despite these alluring gains, Dogecoin is showing some signs of rally fatigue on the short-time frame, with the RSI indicator severely over-heated at 93.31 – a retracement is clearly demanded.
Further challenge emerges from Dogecoin’s huge market cap, which currently stands at just over $23bn, suggesting limited growth potential from here.
Shiba Inu (SHIB): Second Biggest Meme Coin Reels In 190% Monthly Gain
Second biggest meme coin by market cap, Shiba Inu (SHIB) has also seen massive price increases over the past week, with a jaw-dropping +172% gain over the past week.
Now trading at a market price of $0.00002667 (representing a 24-hour change of +18.29%), SHIB has seen rapid growth, with a lower market offering than Dogecoin at $15Bn opening the door to larger gains.
The bullish price movements for SHIB have also been fuelled by improved sentiment surrounding the high supply meme coin due to the launch of the Shibarium L2 last year.
Yet, on the apparent tail-end of a skyrocket, Shiba Inu could be facing downside in the near future due to a major bearish signal on the RSI indicator – reading at a shocking 96.75 – suggesting price could imminently tumble into retracement.
And similarly to Dogecoin, SHIB price action could see growth struggle from here, with a high market cap limiting SHIB’s potential versus other meme coin opportunities.
Pepecoin (PEPE): 2023’s Biggest Meme Coin Launch Bounces Back to New All-Time High
Finally, the biggest meme coin launch of last year – Pepecoin (PEPE) – has made a resounding comeback that has defied all expectations to post a new all-time high at $0.05755, bringing weekly gains to a high-octane +447% return.
Now trading at a market price of $0.0575 (representing a 24-hour change of +27.32%), PEPE has returned an impress +711% over the past month, as retail investor flock to the prominent 2023 breakout token.
With a comparatively low market cap of just $3Bn, a 2x return for DOGE would represent a 7x move for PEPE.
However, with price action now trading against the resistance of a new all-time high, traders should exercise caution, with the likelihood of a retracement increasing as the RSI indicator shifts to 92.82.
High Risk, High Return Alternative To Meme Coin Plays? Meet Scotty the AI
Whilst meme coin markets have enjoyed a strong recovery in recent weeks, the coins explored above are far from the only alluring offer on the crypto market, especially with major coins like DOGE stood at undesirable market caps.
Recent weeks have also seen significant growth and interest in AI cryptocurrencies, which aim to bridge the gap between decentralized blockchains and artificial intelligence, with markets especially bolstered by the launch of OpenAI’s new video generation service Sera.
One such token unlocking viral success is SCOTTY, which stands at a meagre multi-million market cap, yet, offers the opportunity to make it big with the AI narrative.
Whilst meme coins such as Shiba Inu have had years to establish their market position and list on exchanges, Scotty the AI (SCOTTY) represents a beacon of opportunity in the crypto market, with viral traction growing due to bullish AI narrative sentiment.
