Best Meme Coins to Invest In Now
Jacob Bury, a popular crypto YouTuber with almost 40,000 subscribers, posted a video today about the anticipation that major crypto exchanges like Binance and Coinbase might list the GME token if its market cap reaches between $500 million and $1 billion.
Bury also highlighted a new meme coin called Dogeverse, which is currently in its presale phase, with only 10 days left at the time of the video. Dogeverse is presented by Jacob as an appealing investment opportunity and of the best meme coins to buy now.
It is a multi-chain meme coin with functionalities including staking rewards, and its roadmap includes launching a centralized exchange by the end of phase five. The Dogeverse community has reached 17,000 followers on X.
Another meme token gaining traction is WienerAI ($WAI), a new meme token that combines the popular trends of meme coins and artificial intelligence (AI).
It has an amusing backstory involving a mad scientist accidentally mixing hot dog DNA into an advanced cybernetic dog AI, creating a “highly advanced AI” that is part wiener dog, part AI, and part sausage.
WienerAI is currently in its crypto presale, having raised over $1.8 million, with an official launch on exchanges soon, but you can still buy it at presale prices.
Lastly, Sealana, a new Solana meme coin that features an obese and lazy seal as its central figure, inspired by a popular South Park character. This project aims to attract risk-takers seeking high returns and has raised nearly $900K since its presale launch.
Conclusion
The recent surge in meme stocks prices, particularly GameStop (GME) and AMC, has reignited interest in the meme coin market.
With that in mind, Dogeverse, WienerAI, and Sealana might potentially be the best meme coins to invest in now as these projects have captured the attention of meme coin enthusiasts due to their successful presales and decent fundamentals.
