This month, <a href="https://tokenomist.ai/memecoin-2" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Memecoin (MEME)</a> plans to release 3.45 billion tokens, valued at approximately $37.8 million, which could impact the market and investor sentiment. The release will occur in two phases. This includes an initial bulk airdrop followed by daily linear unlocks of 10 million tokens worth around $117,000 each day.&nbsp;
MEME is priced at $0.010 in the market, down from its 2024 high of $0.053. Concerns are that the increased supply may exceed demand, putting further pressure on the price. However, the additional token supply could also attract new interest. Memecoin’s strategy of combining immediate and gradual distribution presents risks but aims to sustain market interest as investors closely monitor this pivotal release.
