Meme currencies like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu have recently topped market searches. With the rise of Shiba Inu to an all-time high, there was a revived interest in meme coins, and these projects have constantly led search results on both social media and Google. The most current is the November search metrics, which reveal that interest in meme currencies has peaked in the United States.
This is unsurprising considering the recent success of both of these cryptocurrencies. Projects that began as jokes are now worth billions of dollars and have provided significant returns on investment in a short period of time. As these become more popular, interested investors have begun to look into them, either to observe how they are performing or to enter the market.
According to Google search results, search inquiries for Dogecoin and Shiba Inu led in 23 states in the United States. These altcoins have grown in popularity to the point that they outperform big cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum on the most-searched lists. After billionaire Elon Musk praised the former, searches for Doge and SHIB increased significantly in cities such as Florida, Illinois, and Michigan.
The country is at the top of the list of biggest requests for meme currencies, as the numbers skyrocketed with the 2021 boom. Single-month searches for Dogecoin surpassed 7 million, with Shiba Inu not far behind. This figure has exceeded interest in currencies like BTC and ETH, which have traditionally led the market in this respect.
These are coins with no utility, but Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao has worth as long as people appreciate them.
Meme coins have recently dominated not only Google search results but also social media. Dogecoin and Shiba Inu have also taken to social media in a big way. Searches on social media have leaned heavily towards these meme currencies, as seen by the massive followings that both projects have amassed in the last few months.
Dogecoin is among the most popular cryptocurrencies on Twitter, ranking third with a total following of 2.5 million. On the platform, only BNB and Bitcoin have a larger following than Doge.
Shiba Inu, a much newer initiative, finished fifth with almost two million Twitter followers. Both projects outperformed investor favorites like Ethereum, Cardano, Solana, and SafeMoon.
