MEW vs POPCAT: Could a memecoin flippening be closer than you think?

  • The price action of both Popcat and cat in a dog’s world will have a strong bearish bias in the coming weeks.
  • The sentiment behind both memes was neutral in the futures market, but one of them recently saw increased demand in the spot market.

Popkat [POPCAT] and cat in a dog’s world [MEW] both have shown a downward trend on the price chart over the past month.

They are following in the footsteps of the broader memecoin market, which has been in a slump since mid-November.

POPCAT had a market cap of $741.9 million at the time of writing, and MEW of $563 million. An earlier report from AMBCrypto suggested that there is a chance that MEW could overtake POPCAT, but this has not happened yet.

A memecoin flipping may not be too far, but are there signs that MEW could be the stronger performer in the coming weeks?
