Entering 2026, the Meme coin sector has experienced a clear rebound. DOGE fluctuated between a 4-11% increase, PEPE surged aggressively by 25%, and even BONK followed suit with a 10% rise. The total market capitalization of the entire sector has now surpassed $33.8 billion, with 24-hour trading volume reaching $5.9 billion. What do these data points reflect? Simply put, funds with higher risk appetite are starting to flow back into these highly volatile assets.

From a technical perspective, DOGE recently showed a short-term golden cross, and the trading volume has also been quite supportive, providing technical backing for the rebound. But there is a very practical issue—Meme coins are characterized by rapid gains and rapid declines. The last surge could turn into a crash in the blink of an eye.

If you are a trader with a high risk appetite, this market may indeed present short-term opportunities. But don’t forget two things: first, strictly set your stop-loss levels; second, the volatility of this sector far exceeds that of mainstream coins. Whether it can continue to strengthen depends on whether it can hold the key support levels. Short-term rebounds and long-term trend reversals are two different things, so make sure to consider your risk tolerance carefully before operating.

Bro, 33.8 billion market cap? I saw this scene back in 2017, then overnight it was back to square one... PEPE's 25% surge this wave really challenges my heartbeat. --- Making quick money isn't shameful, but I'm afraid of losing fast instead of earning it. Stop-loss is easy to say but hard to do. --- 59 billion yen in daily trading volume, these guys really dare to play. I can't help but sweat for them. --- Golden cross is just a golden cross; being able to hold the support level is true skill. Otherwise, you're just giving the exchange trading fees. --- High risk appetite? I advise you to calculate your liquidation price before acting, so you're not forced into passive moves later. --- Still playing Meme coins for short-term gains in 2026? Bro, you haven't experienced the Luna chain explosion of 2008.

PEPE surges by 25 points, this is meme coin after all, one turn and you could lose everything --- Here we go again, funds flowing into highly volatile assets, in other words, gamblers are getting excited --- Stop-loss levels are easy to talk about, but when it comes to cutting positions, no one wants to do it --- A total market cap of 33.8 billion sounds like a lot, but a sudden news event in this sector can wipe out half instantly --- Technical indicators like golden crosses are all jokes in front of meme coins, it all depends on sentiment --- Short-term rebound? I just ask, can it hold the support level? Feels risky --- Those with strong risk tolerance are the last to be cut, aren’t they? --- DOGE's recent increase is only 4-11, a bit showy compared to PEPE --- A trading volume of 5.9 billion looks substantial, but how many can truly walk away unscathed?

Looking at PEPE's rally, damn, it's really exciting. --- DOGE's golden cross just started being hyped? I'm already tired of hearing about it since last year. --- 338 billion market cap sounds like a lot, but how many days can this thing last? --- It's that same set of stop-loss talk, easy to say for anyone. --- High risk appetite? Basically, just gamblers. --- Turning around and crashing down, that phrase is so damn accurate. --- 59 billion in trading volume, a feast for the leek cutters. --- BONK's 10% rally following the trend is really interesting, throwing everything into it. --- Who the hell knows if the support level can hold or not.

Oh wow, PEPE this time is really amazing, soaring 25% directly --- It's another Meme coin, and it drops quickly... I'll just hold on to my DOGE --- 338 billion market cap, it's neither big nor small, feels more like gambling --- Stop-loss levels really need to be set properly. Last time, I got liquidated because of greed --- Golden cross, golden cross, always talking about golden cross, but in the end, it's just a sudden plunge --- Only those with high risk tolerance can play this. As for me, a timid mouse, forget it haha --- Short-term opportunities? I see the rise and want to jump in, but end up getting harvested. That's my daily routine --- There are too many volatile mainstream coins, but I just can't give up this thrill --- The moment support levels can't hold is the beginning of a nightmare --- The Meme coin sector is like this, one second heaven, the next hell, exciting and刺激

Haha, PEPE is up 25%, and my loss is also 25%, so they offset each other.
