DOGE's recent performance is strong

The community expects that Musk will soon support DOGE payment features. Additionally, the Doge founder has on multiple occasions championed the 'Doge to 1' slogan, causing a surge in recent attention towards DOGE.
LMEOW is up 120% in the last 24 hours
The IP origin of LMEOW is closely related to the legendary trader GCR. Originally, GCR was his acronym at FTX exchange, standing for 'Gigantic-Cassocked-Rebirth'. Due to his stellar performance and keen insight, he rapidly gained fame in the Crypto Twitter community. GCR predicted the rise of memecoins like Shiba Inu, the collapse of LUNA, the high-level shorting of Doge, and the 2022 bear market, among other things.
On February 8th, 2023, he predicted that a cat-themed meme coin named 'LMEOW' would lead investors from Doge to Cat, hence the birth of LMEOW. Recently, smart money on-chain has been continuously purchasing it. The token's market cap is $36.24 million, with on-chain liquidity of $1.58 million.
VELO soars over 50% in one day
Velodrome (VELO) is a top decentralized exchange (DEX) on the Optimism network, with a current total value locked (TVL) of $141 million, ranking third in the Op ecosystem. Velodrome's fork project, Aerodrome, is a leading DEX in the Base ecosystem. Due to the recent meme boom in the Base ecosystem, the valuation has risen 16-fold, resulting in a market value of $510 million. As a top DEX in the Op ecosystem, VELO's market value is only $100 million, leaving ample room for price catch-up.
YGG is up 27% in the last 24 hours
Decrypt reports that the blockchain gaming guild, Yield Guild Games (YGG), has begun exploring its next major evolution: transitioning from a blockchain gaming guild into a blockchain gaming guild protocol. YGG aims to become an infrastructure layer, enabling all guilds to develop synchronously both on-chain and within games. YGG is also considering the use of tokenized credentials and tools to manage assets and characters, while deeply integrating with blockchain games. The current mainstream direction for guild-like protocols is to create their own separate blockchain, continuously absorbing and incubating off-chain games to create their closed-loop ecosystem. With recent surges in GameFi ecosystem activity levels, it might be worth keeping an eye on BEAM, GF, ACE, PRIME, XAI, and so on.
GFI is up 40% in the last 24 hours
