Meme Coins

Binance announced it will drop support for five major cryptocurrencies across several blockchain networks, effective 8:00 a.m. UTC on January 22, 2026. The exchange flagged ETH among affected tickers and highlighted impacts on meme and DeFi projects.

Dogecoin jumped about 9% as buyers pushed prices through a recent downtrend, with similar gains seen in other meme coins like Pepe. The move highlights renewed speculative enthusiasm even as the broader crypto market remains choppy and mixed.

Shiba Inu trading volume plunged 52% during the Asian session on Wednesday while the token slid nearly 5% over 24 hours amid broader market selling. The sudden fall in turnover raises questions about short-term demand for meme coins.

Dogecoin has pulled back to a key $0.16 support level after a 5.2% jump last week tied to renewed interest in speculative assets following former President Trump's tariff comments. Technical indicators are signaling increasing bearish momentum.

This week’s charts show Dogecoin and Shiba Inu diverging: DOGE is compressing into a breakout-ready wedge while SHIB sinks further into a downtrend, signaling very different near-term prospects for traders.

TRUMP meme coin is up nearly 24% this month as on-chain whale orders surge, coinciding with a rise in the President's approval ratings. Traders see the accumulation as a bullish signal, but the token remains highly speculative.

Shiba Inu saw 184 million SHIB burned in a single day, but the token is down 2% on the day even as it posts a 5% weekly gain. The burn activity is keeping the meme-coin rally narrative alive, though short-term volatility persists.
