"Buy the dip, sell the rip. But don't get caught holding the bag. Beware of the rugpull." That's essentially the rules of the Wild West of Solana shitcoin trading. And recently there's been several of these that have been trending. It seems to be all about the meme, and its given relevance. I don't know if it's just me, but Solana seems to be what all of these are built on. The great thing about SOL-based meme coins, compared to ETH-based meme coins, is that the fees are much cheaper. Anyway, here are some that have seen recent pumps:

Gigachad $GIGA

Why exactly this one has been running over the past week is beyond me, but $GIGA is showing a fairly strong upward trajectory on decent volume. 

Gigachad is a meme that has been around for years that is now a worldwide phenomenon. The meme is based off of a photoshoot of Russian bodybuilder Ernest Khalimov who was coined "Gigachad" for his perfect physique, jawline, and being a symbol of what a peak masculine male should strive for. $GIGA is a community run cryptocurrency token built on the Solana blockchain. It is a token built exclusively for high testosterone individuals with a focus on self improvement, masculinity, and becoming a true Gigachad.

GME Coin

With the announcement that Gamestop has decided to invest the company's cash into Bitcoin, it's no wonder that the $GME crypto (not endorsed by/affiliated with the actual company) has seen a pop. The meme coin pays tribute to the great 2021 short squeeze of Gamestop common stock. 

We are a movement ignited by the epic GME saga, a beacon for financial revolution! GME on Sol embodies the unstoppable power of unity, challenging the elite gatekeepers of the financial world. We're here to amplify this spirit, building a vibrant ecosystem of memes, utility projects and dynamic partnerships. Together, we are unbreakable, unstoppable, and on the rise.

Fartcoin

Continuing to ride the recent meme wave, $FART continues upward for whatever reason. Just drifting like a fart in the wind, who are we to question its value? Really though, this one is an interesting experiment to say the least.

Fartcoin is a memecoin, a cryptocurrency with a humorous and lighthearted tone, built on the Solana blockchain and inspired by the "Terminal of Truth (ToT)" AI experiment, aiming to capture internet culture and create a decentralized financial tool.

Trade wisely! Remember, they are called shitcoins for a reason.
