Elon Musk’s potential revival of Vine has captured attention, leading to a 122% surge in the Solana-based meme cryptocurrency $VINE within three days. The rumors started when xAI staff member Dane Jacobson revealed that the company had acquired Vine and sought ideas on how to utilize it. 

In January, Musk indicated that he was “considering” the revival of the Vine video platform, particularly as talks about a potential TikTok ban in the U.S. intensified. Soon after, the $VINE token was introduced, temporarily achieving a market cap of $498 million before plummeting 89% to $55 million.

Following Musk’s latest remarks, the token surged 110% from Friday to Saturday, reaching $52 million before declining by 41% to $30.55 million. It subsequently rose an additional 80% to $55 million.

The excitement around $VINE has also spotlighted other meme coins. A similar trend appeared with a token linked to JellyJelly, a podcasting app by Venmo co-founder Iqram Magdon-Ismail. The token first skyrocketed to a market capitalization of $248.5 million before plummeting 94% to $14.88 million. Meanwhile, another meme coin, Bitcoin Pepe, is gaining momentum as it readies for its launch.

From Vine to Bitcoin Pepe

The meme coin space has gained traction over the last year, especially with many created on the Solana blockchain. One that has caught the attention of investors is Bitcoin Pepe.

Bitcoin Pepe has piqued the interest of traders seeking early investment opportunities in high-growth tokens. BPEP is currently in stage 8 of its 30-stage presale, having raised over $5.7 million. The token is priced at $0.0295 and is expected to reach a final presale price of $0.0784. This structured price progression has attracted investors seeking transparent growth opportunities during the presale phase. 

Bitcoin Pepe markets itself as “Solana on Bitcoin,” creating a layer 2 designed to address real-world challenges within the Bitcoin ecosystem. Its PEP-20 standard guarantees immediate transactions with reduced fees.

As cryptocurrencies become widely accepted, initiatives that connect traditional assets with emerging trends stand to benefit the most. Bitcoin Pepe signifies the advancement of digital currency. It merges viral attraction with functional usefulness by leveraging Bitcoin’s framework and incorporating new ideas. For investors looking to diversify, BPEP provides dual exposure. You gain meme coins’ growth potential while linking to Bitcoin’s network.
