The Rise of New Memecoins Signals the End of the Meme Coin Era – What Trend Comes Next?

Memecoins have been a driving force in cryptocurrency markets for a while now, but recent price trends suggest investor sentiment may be shifting. Despite the excitement surrounding Donald Trump’s TRUMP token and Melania’s MEME coin, both assets have seen notable declines in recent days. This has led many to question whether the meme coin era is fading and what the next major trend in crypto might be.

Memecoins Struggle Despite Initial Hype

The TRUMP token, which was developed by U.S. President Donald Trump, has also experienced higher fluctuations after the launch. 

The token hit an all-time high of $75.35 on January 19, 2025, but is now down more than 63% at the time of writing to $27.59. In the last 24 hours, TRUMP fell by 2.98%, with a market cap of $5.51 billion, which fell by 4.09%.

Likewise, the Melania Meme (MELANIA) token has also experienced losses even with investors’ interest. 

At the moment, the meme coin is trading at $2.31; the asset has decreased by 1.81% over the 24 hours that preceded this writing. Despite a slight rise in its market capitalization to $399.63 million, its trading volume went down by 25.22%, reflecting low investor trading frequency. Even the price of Melania Meme dropped more than 84% from its all-time high of $13.73, which was recorded on the launch day. 

Whales Exit PEPE: A Shift in Market Dynamics?

Another popular meme coin, PEPE, is also experiencing massive dumpings coming from big investors. Whale Wallet 0xfbf sold off all their PEPE tokens with which they made $11.1 million in profit and held it for more than a year. This is in line with recent events that have seen whales sell billions of PEPE tokens and place upward pressure on the market.

While some investors think that PEPE may recover, others think that these whale exits are a sign that the latest meme coin bull run is over. Previous meme coins have not been able to sustain strong and consistent growth due to the fact that they depend on the enthusiasm of the community and temporary rumors.

The Next Trend in the Crypto Market: AI and Blockchain Integration

The decline in meme coins is observed on the background of an increasing interest in AI-driven blockchain projects. Ozak AI ($OZ) is a new project that looks like an interesting investment opportunity as it uses artificial intelligence and blockchain to design a data analytical platform.

Ozak AI’s $OZ token currently in its presale phase 3 priced at $0.003, has been attracting investors with the presale that has raised more than $600,000 to date. Experts are therefore optimistic that $OZ could hit $1 by 2025 with its listing price of $0.05, which is a huge upside for anyone who was an early investor. The premise of the project is based on the application of the token in everyday life for financial transactions, healthcare, and logistics—unlike meme coins.

As a way of attracting investors, Ozak AI has also put in place a one-million-dollar reward program for early adopters of its ecosystem. As the market shifts to reflect this demand for AI-based solutions, Ozak AI may well be the vanguard of the next big development in crypto.

What Lies Ahead for Crypto Markets?

As we have seen, popular meme coins such as TRUMP, MELANIA or PEPE are still not showing any significant improvement, it might be a new set of projects that has practical use and real value that could define the following phase of the crypto market. In the next few years, AI-driven platforms like Ozak AI may become the new trend in the market.

Many investors are now waiting to see whether memecoins will be able to gain their former appeal or if the market will move towards new and more practical blockchains.
