Fartcoin continued to outpace legacy meme coins like Dogecoin DOGE/USD and Shiba Inu, registering rallies that defied market trends.
What happened: The Solana SOL/USD-based cryptocurrency spiked over 4% to become the most successful meme coin in the last 24 hours.
In fact, Fartcoin was the most purchased token by smart money investors, as highlighted by the on-chain tracking platform Stalkchain.
The humorously named cryptocurrency has emerged as the king of meme coins, rising 194% in a month marked by tariff-induced fear and market decline. Just for context, meme giants such as Dogecoin and Shiba Inu fell by more than 7% within the same period.
Popcat, the cat-themed meme coin, came in second, with a 1.33% gain over the previous day, while Shiba Inu rose 1.01% to bag the third spot.
| Cryptocurrency | Gains +/- | Price (Recorded at 10:15 p.m. ET) |
| Fartcoin (FARTCOIN) | +4.14% | $0.8799 |
| Popcat POPCAT/USD | +1.33% | $0.2396 |
| Shiba Inu SHIB/USD | +1.01% | $0.00001184 |

On the other hand, Dogecoin, the world’s largest meme coin by market value, exhibited sideways movement in the last 24 hours.
The broader meme coin sector also drifted horizontally, registering a market capitalization gain of 0.13%.
The cryptocurrency market held up well Wednesday, even as equities witnessed sharp sell-offs following tariff-fueled inflation concerns raised by Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.
