Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Dogecoin (DOGE) Competitors on Solana (SOL) and Base (BASE) Blockchains Face Pressure
As Bitcoin (BTC) dipped below $60,000, competitors of Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Dogecoin (DOGE) on the Solana (SOL) and Base (BASE) blockchains are experiencing significant pressure. Over the past seven days, the Base meme crypto scene has shed more than a third of its value.
Base Meme Coins Segment Loses 24% in 24 Hours
The meme cryptocurrency segments on Base (BASE) and Solana (SOL) have once again been among the most heavily impacted categories of altcoins during a recent market sell-off. In the past 24 hours, meme coins on Base (BASE) have lost nearly 24% of their capitalization. src="/uploads/20240504/17148051856635d9c11df7f.png">Image by CoinGecko**
Low-cap assets within the Base (BASE) meme coin ecosystem have suffered the most significant losses. However, flagship coins such as BRETT, DEGEN, and HIGHER have also experienced 10%-15% drops.
Cat-themed meme coins have been the fifth worst-affected category on CoinGecko, with a 17% loss overnight. However, leaders Cat In The Dog World (MEW) and Mog Coin (MOG) have outperformed the overall crypto market with minimal losses of 3-4%.
The Solana (SOL) meme coin ecosystem has lost 15% in 24 hours, with leaders WIF, BONK, and BOME experiencing only 1-6% price declines.
As previously reported by U.Today, meme coins on Solana (SOL) and Base (BASE) were also impacted by last weekend's price plunge.
Crypto Liquidations Approach $400 Million
In the past 24 hours, the total capitalization of cryptocurrency markets has decreased by 3.9%. Bitcoin (BTC), the leading cryptocurrency, has lost 5.7% of its value.
This decline has been attributed to the conclusion of Binance CEO CZ's trial and the underwhelming launch of Hong Kong's crypto-based spot ETFs.
As a result, numerous Bitcoin (BTC) and altcoin futures traders have been liquidated in the past 24 hours. CoinGlass data indicates that over $390 million in positions, primarily longs, have been erased.
Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) account for $250 million of this total.
