On January 28, 2026, viral meme content on TikTok continues to drive a new wave of "TikTok meme coins": the platform's algorithm favors Gen Z culture, brainrot trends, Italian-style brain teasers, and Chill Guy-style relaxed dog memes. These short videos often trigger FOMO for instant launch coins on the Solana network on Pump.fun. The total market cap of the CoinGecko TikTok Meme category is approximately $110-126 million (24h slight drop/rise of 2-3%), but viral spread has led to some small coins experiencing short-term surges.
Real-time data reference (CoinMarketCap/CoinGecko in the last 24h):
$PEPE priced around $0.00000500–$0.00000503, stable over 24h, with a market cap exceeding $2 billion, frequently listed as a "classic community strong representative" in TikTok's "Best Meme Coins 2026" video, with stable discussion heat.
$BONK priced around $0.0000085–$0.000011 range, Solana ecosystem + early TikTok rebound narrative active, often associated with new coins on Pump.fun in videos.
$PENGU (related to Pudgy Penguins) priced around $0.009–$0.01, with slight fluctuations over 24h, frequent NFT collaborations and cute penguin meme content on TikTok, with high community activity.
Market forecast: In the short term, $pepe may continue to fluctuate, relying on TikTok/X sentiment for maintenance; $bonk benefits from the Solana ecosystem and short video traffic, possibly recovering slightly; if NFT/cute narratives continue to ferment on the platform, there may be a chance to test new highs before February, but after the decline of TikTok virality, a rapid adjustment is likely. High volatility, DYOR, risk is self-borne. #memecoins #pepe #Bonk #Crypto2026n #WriteToEarn
