Nearly 5 million new memecoins were deployed on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/solana\/\">Solana<\/a> alone this year, with the platform capturing over $335 million in fees, <a href=\"https:\/\/dune.com\/evelyn233\/pump-data\">according<\/a> to a <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/companies\/dune-analytics\/\">Dune Analytics<\/a><\/span> dashboard<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> by user evelyn223.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The primary memecoin narrative claimed the top spot among crypto narratives, accounting for 14.36% of investor mindshare.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Also, four memecoin trends ranked in the top 20: Solana memecoins (7.65%), Base memecoins (2.13%), AI memecoins (1.49%), and cat-themed memecoins (1.19%).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to<\/span> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/app.artemis.xyz\/home\">data<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> from Artemis, memecoins represented the third most profitable narrative in 2024, generating an average yearly return of 201%. The gains were also above the 128% average return from the market.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Besting AI tokens<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This year's growth in artificial intelligence (AI) technologies raised investors' expectations about the intersection between AI and blockchain. As a result, this became a hot trend within the crypto community, capturing 15.67% of the mindshare across six narratives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The core AI ecosystem was responsible for most of the popularity, registering the second-largest overall popularity with a 12.58% share, up 1.26% from last year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AI-related trends, such as AI agents (1.17%) and AI meme coins (1.49%), further contributed to the technology's growing influence in crypto.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nevertheless, the memecoins sector's meteoric rise in popularity eclipsed the AI narrative this year by heavily outperforming. Additionally,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> AI tokens had a negative 11.6% performance this year, mainly due to Worldcoin's <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/worldcoin-org-wld\/\">WLD<\/a> 39% drawdown.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Growing narratives<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The real-world assets (RWA) narrative gained traction, climbing to third place with an 8.64% share of investor interest, up 2.16% from 2023.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similarly, Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) moved from 13th to 8th place, with its share rising by 1.56%.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In contrast, the blockchain gaming (GameFi) narrative declined, shrinking from a 10.49% share in 2023 to just 3.72% in 2024, reflecting waning interest in gaming-related blockchain applications.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The RWA sector posted an average yearly gain of 1,755%, primarily due to the 6,520% rise in Mantra's <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/mantra\/\">OM<\/a> token. As a result, the average returns for this sector's tokens got inflated.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meanwhile, DePIN tokens jumped 30% in the same period, while gaming tokens had an average negative performance of 23.4%.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Solana and Base shine<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blockchain ecosystems also captured significant attention in 2024, with Solana and Base-related narratives gaining prominence, with memecoins playing a key role.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Solana narratives combined for a 14.30% share, driven by Solana memecoins (7.65%) and broader ecosystem interest (5.78%).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Base narratives totaled 4.87%, bolstered by the Base ecosystem and Base memecoins.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Memecoins dominated 31% of crypto narratives in 2024, according to a report by CoinGecko.
