- Truth Terminal’s FARTCOIN sale raised approximately $22 million.
- Neiry Lab used its meme coin as a marketing tool, gaining over 33,000 followers.
- DeepSeek tokens reached market caps of $54 million and $14 million before plummeting below $400,000.
- Dr. Petar Radanliev from the University of Oxford criticizes AI meme coins as speculative bubbles.
Pump.fun has facilitated the launch of various AI meme coins, with some reaching significant market caps before declining sharply. Despite these financial activities, experts like Dr. Petar Radanliev argue that many of these coins lack real value and are part of speculative bubbles likely to burst in future bear markets.
