Emily Bao, Bybit’s Web3 Evangelist, said, “This event captures the dynamic spirit of Web3 and provides a unique platform for our community to gain valuable insights, participate in lively discussions, and even win big.

The surge in memecoin trading volume, reaching its highest level since May 2021, reflects a growing interest in memecoin. Tokens like Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and Pepe have led this surge, with the total market cap for memecoins soaring to $51 billion.
This surge coincides with Base’s thriving network usage, with its 24-hour trading volume exceeding $250 million, up tenfold since January.
Memecoins have seen a staggering 195% annual increase, surpassing Bitcoin’s 123% rise. The total market cap for memecoins now stands at a staggering $51 billion, underscoring both the potential and risk in this sector. Is this trend sustainable or just a fleeting frenzy?
Bybit’s DEX Pro platform will also be showcased during the event, offering attendees insights into decentralized exchange technologies. Furthermore, participants can test their memecoin knowledge and win up to $5,000 in trending memecoins on Base by engaging in an interactive quiz.
The live stream event promises to be an engaging exploration of the memecoin phenomenon, offering valuable insights and opportunities for participants to join the conversation.
