The year 2024 is considered a "super cycle for memecoins," with 7 out of the top 10 projects showing impressive growth.

10 Coins With The Most Impressive Growth In 2024

In 2024, Virtuals Protocol (VIRTUAL) emerged as the most impressive name, boasting a staggering growth of 23,079%. Starting the year at $0.013, VIRTUAL made a spectacular leap in Q4, reaching $3.04 on December 25. This success was driven by its AI agent creation platform, which skillfully tapped into the two hottest trends of the year: AI and memecoins. To put it into perspective, an investment of $100 in VIRTUAL at the start of the year could have returned $23,079 by year-end.

Ranking second in the growth race was the memecoin Brett (BRETT), with an increase of 14,784%. Despite a correction from its all-time high of $0.23 (December 1), BRETT remained remarkable as the only memecoin on the Base platform to reach a $1 billion market cap, surging from $0.00097 (February 29) to $0.145 (December 25).

The third spot went to another memecoin, Popcat (POPCAT), which climbed 10,459% from $0.007 to $0.806. Launched at the end of 2023, Popcat quickly became a phenomenon on Solana and made history as the first cat-themed memecoin to hit a $1 billion market cap in September.
