<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="memecoins-a-contentious-solana-sector-in-cryptocurrency">Memecoins: A Contentious Solana Sector in Cryptocurrency</h2>
<p>Memecoins continue to exist as a contentious cryptocurrency sector where <a href="https://btc-pulse.com/over-678m-24-hour-bitcoin-price-drops-below-54k/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">millionaires </a>are made overnight, and investors sometimes suffer massive losses in minutes in scams commonly known as “rug pulls” or “getting rekt”.</p>
<p>As proponents debate memetic crypto tokens and their role in the future of finance, Solana (SOL) has solidified itself as the go-to meme network by offering cheap transaction fees and easy-to-ship coin solutions like pump.fun.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="anatoly-yakovenko-s-proposal">Anatoly Yakovenko’s Proposal</h2>
<p>Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko proposed further advancing this vertical by enlisting developers to create customer features. “Memecoins should grant dev teams to build stuff for them. Effectively reverse the ICO process,” Yakovenko wrote on Monday.</p>
<p><a href="https://x.com/aeyakovenko/status/1810289097849651667" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">The X reply</a> was part of a discourse around how meme projects could establish a steady onboarding corridor for retail users and incentivize institutional investors to adopt cryptocurrencies.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="a-new-approach-to-meme-projects">A New Approach to Meme Projects</h2>
<p>Per Yakovenko’s pitch, meme teams would field grant offers, and developers would accept the best options from projects with “fair and transparent terms.” Fantom contributor and veteran blockchain builder Andre Cronje discussed a similar idea to better meme <a href="https://btc-pulse.com/1inch-launches-web3-rpc-api-blockchain-developers/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">tokens </a>and foster safer speculation.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="memecoins-tumble-with-crypto-market">Memecoins Tumble with Crypto Market</h2>
<p>Meanwhile, the memecoin sector joined a broad crypto market decline on Monday and lost over 8% of its market cap, data from CoinGecko showed.</p>
<p>Bearish price actions have gripped <a href="https://btc-pulse.com/house-to-revisit-crypto-regulation-bill-vetoed-biden/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">digital assets</a> for weeks, and meme tokens have succumbed to the volatility closely associated with cryptocurrencies. Top meme tokens like Brett (BRETT), Dogwifhat (WIF), and Pepe (PEPE) have seen double-digit declines within the past week alone.</p>
