Meme Coins Back? Google Says Yes
Posted: Wed Sep 03, 2025 4:35 am
Interesting news from ForkLog about Google search queries for "memecoin" seeing a massive surge. It seems like the retail crowd is getting interested again, and this data from Google Trends is a pretty strong indicator. The article points out that while the recent surge isn't at the same level as the peak in early 2025 with the TRUMP token, it's a solid rebound from the summer lows.
We all know how volatile and speculative this corner of the market is, but you can't deny the community power behind these tokens. As the article mentions, the rise in search interest often correlates with an increase in trading volume and price, so this could be a leading indicator for the next altcoin season.
I'm seeing a lot of discussion about how this search trend could be a leading indicator for the next altcoin season. Is this a sign that a new bull run is kicking off, or just a temporary blip driven by a few viral projects?
On one hand, the data shows a clear pattern: retail interest on Google Trends often precedes big pumps. On the other hand, the market is a very different beast than it was in 2021. There are new blockchains, new meme coin narratives (looking at you, celeb tokens), and a lot more cynicism from burned investors.
So, what's the consensus? Are you guys paying attention to these search trends, or is it just noise? Will we see another dog-themed coin hit a billion-dollar market cap, or is the fun over? I'm curious to hear what you all think.
