An equal-weight model of 10 large memecoins lost 78.74% from Jan. 1, 2025, to Feb. 20, 2026, while Bitcoin (BTC) fell 30.68% and U.S. stock and gold fund proxies gained. The comparison shows how the modeled portfolio diverged from familiar market benchmarks. The tracked memecoin category had a market capitalization of about $30.8 billion at approximately 4:01 p.m. ET (20:01 UTC) on Oct. 21, 2026. Market capitalization reflects token prices and circulating supply; it does not measure how much cash entered or left the category. Earlier coverage of Pump.fun trading activity examined token trades, a different measure from category value.
