A new meme coin from China, Pudgy Pandas ($PANDA), raised over $300K in one 
day on presale, gaining significant attention in the Asian crypto market via 
social platforms like WeChat. With a real-world cause (#FreeThePandas 
campaign) fuelling its momentum, this new meme coin on presale proves there&#8217;s 
room for more at the party Pudgy Pandas challenges the Pudgy Penguins ($PENGU) 
franchise, which has dominated the year so far with a market cap of over $2B. 
Speaking of, the $PENGU ETF with the SEC, as well as the $DOGE ETF, signal the 
rise of meme coins as serious investment products. That, combined with the 
growing buzz around projects like Pudgy Pandas, and Pudgy Penguins, is 
spilling over into newer projects, with degens hunting for the next breakout 
token. Maxi Doge ($MAXI) is pumped up and ready to ride this wave, already 
soaring past $2.2M in its presale. Meme Coin Mania Isn’t Stopping – Here Are 
the Tokens Degens Are Watching Now The meme coin market has surged over the 
past seven days, with several tokens reaching new highs. Dogecoin led the 
market with a 12.3% increase, followed by Pepe at 5.27%, signaling that the 
major meme plays still command the spotlight. In the lower cap range, MemeCore 
exploded by 20%, Bonk saw a 4% gain, and Pudgy Penguins inched up by +0.06%, 
highlighting how degens may be piling into newer, high-volatility tokens. 
Riding the meme coin wave, here are the top meme coins that our experts 
believe could surge in value in 2025. Historically, meme coins have shown the 
potential to deliver gains ranging from 10x to 100x during bullish periods. 
This is particularly true when investors enter early in a project’s cycle, as 
seen with the Maxi Doge ($MAXI) presale, which is drawing significant 
attention from early adopters eager to capitalize on the current meme coin 
mania. Meme Coin Frenzy Pushes Maxi Doge Presale to New Heights Maxi Doge 
($MAXI) is a high-octane trading meme token built for ultra-leveraged 
strategies. The token rewards traders who love to time entries, ride market 
swings, and turn each green candle into an opportunity for massive gains. 
Besides high-leverage plays and relentless market action, here&#8217;s why $MAXI 
could be the next moonshot bag: An ‘Alpha Dog’ lifestyle token fueling 
conviction, stamina, and risk-taking in the bull run. It delivers the raw edge 
and motivation needed to out-trade, out-pump, and outlast. Its smart contract 
handles presale mechanics and automates prize distributions directly on-chain. 
Keeps the community always buzzing – firing up the squad with non-stop 
giveaways and degen competitions, pumping engagement, and keeping the vibes 
WAGMI. Plans for integration with larger DeFi platforms, including swaps, 
liquidity, and partner events, as the ecosystem expands. Maxi Doge is flexing 
hard right now. At just $0.0002575 per token, the presale has already raised 
over $2.2M; though the next price surge is set to occur once it reaches $2.4M, 
most likely tomorrow. The $MAXI vibe is MAX RIPPED. MAX GAINZ. MAX MENTALITY – 
a mantra so strong it;s seen some whales drop as much as $37K on $MAXI. Pure 
meme-fuelled early entries like this are where the real degens play, which can 
turn them into mega moonshots. Feeling the FOMO? If you ape in with $500 
today, you&#8217;ll get about 1.94M $MAXI tokens plus an additional ~2.79M tokens in 
staking rewards at 144% APY p/a. That means your buy could stack serious 
passive gains, even before the next pump kicks in With over $5.2B $MAXI 
already staked, the community is clearly riding this bull wave. If meme coin 
momentum keeps raging, $MAXI could be the next crypto to explode. Bulk up on 
the $MAXI presale before the next pump. This is not financial advice. The 
cryptocurrency market can be highly volatile and speculative. Please do your 
own research before making any investments. Authored by Aaron Walker, NewsBTC

Following an all-time high (ATH) reached last August, Ethereum (ETH), the 
market&#8217;s second-largest cryptocurrency, has found itself in a consolidation 
phase, trading between $4,200 and $4,700. This price range reflects a broader 
stagnation in the cryptocurrency market, as various digital assets, including 
Bitcoin (BTC), struggle to regain the momentum that led both BTC and ETH reach 
new records above $124,000 and $4,9000 respectively. Notably, Citigroup, the 
third-largest investment bank in the United States, has tempered expectations 
for the Ethereum price, forecasting a year-end price target of $4,300 for the 
altcoin. Citi Forecasts Moderate ETF Inflows Into Ethereum According to a 
report by Reuters, Citigroup&#8217;s analysis attributes the current demand for 
Ethereum to burgeoning interest in Ethereum-based applications, including 
stablecoins and tokenization. However, the bank cautions that the recent price 
strength may be more a reflection of market sentiment than underlying 
fundamentals. Related Reading: Analyst Raises Red Flags On Bitcoin Price: 
Allegations Of Market Manipulation In a note released on Monday, Citi 
remarked, &#8220;Current prices are above activity estimates, potentially driven by 
recent buying pressure and excitement over use-cases.&#8221; Ethereum&#8217;s appeal has 
grown among investors looking for more than just price appreciation. Analysts 
forecast increased price growth for the altcoin due to the recent passage of 
bills, including the GENIUS Act, which aims to provide a new framework for 
stablecoins, as well as the surge in interest in tokenization. Despite these 
developments, Citigroup predicts that the inflow of exchange-traded funds 
(ETFs) into Ethereum will be less robust compared to Bitcoin. In contrast, 
Standard Chartered has recently revised its year-end target for Ethereum 
significantly upward, from $4,000 to $7,500. Bearish And Bullish Scenarios For 
ETH This adjustment reflects stronger engagement within the industry and 
increasing corporate investments. The bank anticipates that the stablecoin 
sector could grow eightfold by 2028, which would likely drive up Ethereum 
network fees and demand. Citi also presented a more optimistic bull case, 
projecting a potential price of $6,400 if activity and adoption of Ethereum- 
based applications continue to rise. This would represent a major 42% uptrend 
ahead for the leading altcoin. Conversely, the bank outlined a bearish 
scenario in which the Ethereum price would drop to $2,200 in the event of a 
macroeconomic downturn or a decline in the equity market. If this scenario 
plays out, it could spell major trouble for bulls, as it would represent a 50% 
drop from current levels. Related Reading: Crucial Ten Days Ahead For Crypto: 
Will They Ignite Mega Altcoin Season? Interestingly, a recent report from 
Sygnum, a digital asset bank, has painted a more favorable outlook for 
Ethereum. The bank highlights Ethereum&#8217;s upgrades and increasing institutional 
interest as significant factors that could position ETH to benefit from 
anticipated trends in stablecoin issuance and broader adoption. Furthermore, 
the digital asset bank highlighted that as liquid Ethereum reserves on 
exchanges diminish and demand intensifies, the possibility of a supply squeeze 
arises, potentially sending the altcoin into a new leg up to retest all-time 
high levels. As of this writing, ETH is trading at $4,480, which is up 5% on 
the weekly time frame. Compared to record prices, the altcoin is trading 
nearly 10% below all-time high levels. Featured image from DALL-E, chart from
