Bitcoin is up over the week, having risen over 10% the past seven days. Its pricenow stands at $69,966, per CoinGecko—still below the nearly $74,000 all-time high it touched earlier this month.
But most of this week’s action has been focused elsewhere: in the world of meme coins and tokens.
Out of the top cryptocurrencies by market cap, one of the biggest winners of the week is Dogecoin. The ninth biggest digital asset is up nearly 45% in seven days and is now priced at $0.208.
In the fast-moving meme coin world, other tokens have surged. Most notably, Dogwifhat, which is this week’s best-performing cryptocy. The Solana-based token is up nearly 100% over the week and is priced at $4.52 as of writing.
It has been on a tear this week following the rise of major coins and tokens. Usually, when the likes of Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana rise, memes can ride on the back of them.
Another major meme, Shiba Inu, has also had a lot of luck this week: the Dogecoin-competitor has jumped over 1o% in value the past seven days, sitting at $0.00003 early Saturday.
