2. Popular Projects
The hottest projects this week (05.01–05.06) include:
PEPE (token): On May 5, Binance announced that PEPE and FLOKI would be listed on its Innovation Zone, triggering a surge across the entire meme sector. PEPE was the core beneficiary, having risen over 200,000x from its lows. It achieved a 24-hour trading volume of $170 million and currently ranks #43 by market cap.
MONG (token): A meme coin originating from incoherent remarks made by a U.S. Congressman who repeatedly mentioned "MONG COIN," symbolizing a degenerate meme culture and strong community spirit. The token currently has a market cap of $47.7 million and a 24-hour trading volume of $10.12 million, showing extremely high activity.
WOJAK (token): One of the hottest memecoins during this cycle, second only to tier-1 memes like AIDOGE and PEPE. Featuring a powerfully iconic human meme image, WOJAK recently followed PEPE’s lead, rallying more than tenfold after forming a bottom, though it has since pulled back. It currently holds a 24-hour trading volume of $22 million and a market cap of $37.49 million.
TURBO (token): A meme coin whose smart contract was written by AI, created by digital artist Rhett Mankind. Initially supported by NFT whale Pransky providing liquidity on Uni V3, the project later attracted speculative interest. It now has a market cap of $32 million and a 24-hour trading volume of $33.52 million, maintaining very high热度.
RPL (token): The native token of Rocket Pool, an LSD protocol. Since the Shanghai upgrade, the project has continuously rolled out updates, reducing validator staking requirements from 16 ETH down to 8 ETH. Its TVL increased by 32% over the past 30 days and rose 7% in the last 7 days—among the top performers in the LSD sector. Total TVL now stands at $1.12 billion. The token rose 6% in the past 24 hours with $15.39 million in trading volume.
POGAI (token): A currently trending meme coin in Chinese-speaking communities, built around the “Panda Emoji” meme. The project gained over 20,000 Twitter followers within just two days of launching, showing rapid growth in popularity. The token operates on Arbitrum and has been fully distributed to the community via airdrop, with widely dispersed holdings. It currently has a market cap of $9 million and a 24-hour trading volume of $11.62 million. POGAI will list on BitGet today at 7 PM.
Blokpad – Infinite Moments (NFT): Blokpad is a collectible card platform, while Infinite Moments is a series of NFTs commemorating some of the greatest moments in sports and history, categorized into different series and rarity levels. Recent activity has spiked due to connections with the Super Mario Bros IP.
Uniswap (Dapp): Benefiting from the recent explosion in meme activity—most of which occurs on Ethereum and uses Uniswap as the primary liquidity pool—the platform has seen a sharp rise in usage. However, the UNI token has mostly followed broader market trends without significant independent movement.
Playbux (Dapp): A metaverse project on the BNB chain integrating real-world shopping (“shop-to-earn”), DeFi, NFTs, and virtual community events. Users can explore the blockchain world within Playbux (e.g., PancakeSwap, 1inch, NFT marketplaces, mini-games) and also experience real-world product purchases with cashback rewards. The project launched a 60-day token airdrop last week, attracting thousands of daily participants. It has 22,500 NFT holders and maintains high热度 on BSC.
GameTradeMarket (Dapp): A Solana-based platform dedicated to discovering and trading in-game NFTs, focused specifically on gaming assets with full-category game classification and transaction functionality. The platform has numerous ecosystem partnerships and recently announced collaborations with PolkaFantasy, Gods Unchained, and playSIPHER.
3. Hot Searches
The most searched topics this week (05.01–05.06) include:
PEPE, Floki (Token): On May 1, CZ stated during an AMA that he does not oppose any meme—if there's sufficient user demand, it could potentially be listed. Yesterday, Binance announced the listing of PEPE and FLOKI, causing their prices to spike rapidly and sparking intense community discussion.
AIDOGE (Token): A viral meme on Arbitrum known for its unique transaction tax mechanism—higher trading volume leads to stronger deflationary pressure, helping the token enter a positive feedback loop. Recently, AIDOGE boosted its price by launching a campaign where users burn AIDOGE to receive the "AICODE" token, followed by price manipulation and mining incentives for AICODE. After a subsequent price correction, AIDOGE is now aiming to evolve beyond a pure meme coin by building an AIFI ecosystem.
SUI (Token): The SUI mainnet token launched with a joint debut across multiple major CEXs. At a price of $1.36, its circulating market cap is $720 million (compared to $1.89 billion for APT and $1.7 billion for ARB), while its fully diluted market cap reaches $13.6 billion (vs. $10.3 billion for APT and $13 billion for ARB).
