Following the weekend pump, leading meme coins Dogecoin and Shiba Inu have emerged with double-digit gains in an attempt to show their dominance on the market. However, these leading meme coins have fallen short of other competitors when it comes to gains, showing rising profit opportunities in meme coins with lower market caps. Thus, this report takes a look at the meme coins that have outperformed both Dogecoin and Shiba Inu with better profit margins.
PEPE’s Outstanding 67% Run
After a prolonged downtrend, the PEPE meme coin re-emerged to the frontline with an incredible rally over the last week. CoinGecko data shows that PEPE’s price is up 67% in a 7-day period, making it the top gainer among the largest meme coins by market cap.
This rally resulted in over $1 billion added to the meme coin’s market cap during this time, and solidified its position as the third-largest meme coin by market cap. Its daily trading volume also ballooned above $1.2 billion during this time as investors rushed in to take advantage of the fast pump.
BONK Follows PEPE’s Lead
Similar to PEPE, the BONK meme coin also saw a rapid ascent that put it ahead of meme coins such as Dogecoin and Shiba Inu. In the same 7-day period, the BONK meme coin rose by over 46%, pushing its market cap above $1 billion, while its daily trading volume raced toward $500 million.
The optics around BONK have also been particularly bullish, given the rise in the Solana price as well. Solana saw approximately 8% week-on-week gains, pushing its price toward $135. As a result, meme coins domiciled on the Solana blockchain have witnessed major rebounds during this time.
PIPPIN Emerges From The Shadows To Dominate Meme Coin
Unlike PEPE and BONK, which were already established large-cap meme coins, PIPPIN is a complete underdog that has taken the market by storm. The meme coin was first created back in 2024, and “died” a quick death after its initial pump, until it was resurrected back in 2025.
Since then, the PIPPIN meme coin has continued to outperform, rising from a $20 million market cap to over $650 million at its peak. The price is up more than 1,000% in the last three months, and rose over 13% in the last week alone. While expectations have been that the PIPPIN price will see a quick dump like JELLYJELLY, it has held up, resting at over $500 million market cap at the time of this report.
