Early Bitcoin adopter Jeremie Davinci has taken to his account on the X social media giant (formerly known as Twitter) to share his take on what he believes meme coins, including flagships Dogecoin and Shiba Inu, can reach in this market cycle in terms of market capitalization value.
He made quite a bold prediction that is likely to make meme coin investors happy.
The early Bitcoin millionaire stated that during the last market cycle, leading meme coin DOGE managed to soar to a $88.8 billion market cap value, while the second largest meme digital currency, Shiba Inu’s, market cap skyrocketed as high as $40 billion.
Davinci believes that in this cycle, all meme coins as an asset class are likely to reach a whopping $1 trillion market capitalization – this is slightly below the level where Bitcoin’s market cap is sitting at the time of this writing – $1,320,587,283,299, according to the data provided by CoinMarketCap.
Last cycle we saw $DOGE coin hit $88.8 billion market cap & $SHIB hit $40 billion.
I think we’ll see memes as an asset class hit close to $1 trillion market cap this cycle

DOGE’s market cap currently constitutes $17,813,363,036.
