They provide investors with curated access to token sales while offering startups a community-driven capital injection. In 2026, launchpads have evolved into full-stack incubators, focusing on project quality and long-term sustainability.

Winklevoss’ $21M Bitcoin Donation to Pro-Trump PAC Leads to Market Surge

Winklevoss’ $21M Bitcoin Donation to Pro-Trump PAC Leads to Market Surge

The post Winklevoss’ $21M Bitcoin Donation to Pro-Trump PAC Leads to Market Surge appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Winklevoss twins just dropped more than $21M worth of Bitcoin into a pro-Trump political action committee, and the crypto world is buzzing. The move sent shockwaves through both politics and the market, with traders quick to connect the dots between big money, policy influence, and future profits. For a community that thrives on momentum, this donation feels like pouring rocket fuel on an already hot fire. Bitcoin lovers see it as proof that crypto is no longer on the sidelines of power – it’s playing center stage. And when whales like Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss make waves, new crypto projects often ride the tide higher. Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is one such new project. Capitalizing on Bitcoin’s momentum and building a Layer-2 for its network, this presale has been getting a lot of retail attention in 2025. Politics Meets Crypto in 2026 Tyler Winklevoss revealed in a post on X that he and his brother contributed 188 $BTC – worth about $21M at the time – to the Digital Freedom Fund PAC. Their stated mission is to back President Trump’s crypto-friendly agenda, with an eye on shaping the 2026 U.S. midterm elections. The twins are no strangers to political crypto influence: in 2024, they gave $2M in Bitcoin to Trump’s campaign and another $5M to Fairshake PAC, a group that pushed hard for pro-crypto candidates in Congress. The symbolism behind this latest $21M donation is hard to miss – it matches Bitcoin’s 21M maximum supply. For investors, the signal is clear: institutional players and political heavyweights are now fully intertwining Bitcoin with mainstream power. And when that happens, markets notice. Spotlight on Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER)’s Presale Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER) is a new project promising the fastest Bitcoin Layer 2 ever built. Not just a sidechain, not a watered-down compromise, but…

4 Undervalued Crypto Coins to Buy Before They Go Viral in August 2025

4 Undervalued Crypto Coins to Buy Before They Go Viral in August 2025

The post 4 Undervalued Crypto Coins to Buy Before They Go Viral in August 2025 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. In past cycles, the biggest winners have often been tokens that start the month undervalued and end it at the center of the hype cycle. August is shaping up to be one of those moments, with several coins trading at attractive levels despite strong fundamentals and growing interest. Among the most compelling plays right now are Little Pepe (LILPEPE), SUI, SEI, and Cronos (CRO), all of which are positioned for substantial gains as traders look for the next breakout assets. Little Pepe (LILPEPE) – The Meme Coin With Real Infrastructure Little Pepe has quickly emerged as a standout in the meme coin space, yet its scope goes beyond simple internet culture hype. Priced at just $0.002 in stage 11 of its presale, the token has already raised more than $19.5 million and sold over 12.8 billion tokens, signaling deep investor demand. It is fully CertiK-audited, already listed on CoinMarketCap, and backed by a robust community eager to see it succeed.  The project is launching an Ethereum Layer 2 blockchain designed exclusively for meme coins, offering fast transactions, ultra-low fees, and sniper bot protection, features that appeal to both traders and developers. With plans to host a meme-only Launchpad and list on two top-tier centralized exchanges at launch, LILPEPE is entering the market with strong infrastructure, momentum, and a presale price point that leaves enormous upside potential. Sui (SUI) – Expanding the Layer 1 Frontier Currently trading around $3.90 with a market cap of $13.4 billion, Sui is a high performance Layer 1 blockchain designed for scalability and instant finality. Since its launch, Sui has grown steadily thanks to developer-friendly tools and an expanding ecosystem of DeFi, gaming, and NFT projects. In the last three months alone, SUI has climbed over 50%, showing steady momentum in a market where many altcoins…

Hold These 2 Meme Coins to Flip $1500 into $60,000 in 2025, Skip DOGE

Hold These 2 Meme Coins to Flip $1500 into $60,000 in 2025, Skip DOGE

The post Hold These 2 Meme Coins to Flip $1500 into $60,000 in 2025, Skip DOGE appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Dogecoin is still the symbol of meme coins. However, in 2025, the most significant returns may be found through newer projects that have more room to grow. Though DOGE is focused on the combined marketing nostalgia and celebrity promotion, other meme coins are creating advanced ecosystems capable of yielding much larger profits.  The two are Little Pepe and Bonk and are catching the attention of serious investors.  Little Pepe is in Stage 11 of its presale at just $0.0020, while Bonk continues its surge on Solana. Both have passed Certik audits, giving investors confidence. Here’s why these two could turn $1,500 into $60,000, while DOGE lags. Little Pepe: The Meme Coin With Its Blockchain Little Pepe ($LILPEPE) isn’t just another meme coin—it’s a Layer 2 blockchain project explicitly built for memes. This is a significant distinction in a market where most meme coins are purely speculative with no underlying infrastructure. The Little Pepe ecosystem blends meme culture with blockchain efficiency, boasting ultra-low fees, lightning-fast transaction finality, and unique sniper bot protection that ensures fair trading for all participants. Now in Stage 11 and selling for just $0.0020, Little Pepe has already moved through its presale phases faster than anticipated, signalling strong investor demand. Its tokenomics are strategically designed for growth, with allocations for liquidity, staking rewards, marketing, and a robust chain reserve. The presale allocation rewards early backers, and with 0% tax on buys and sells, the token encourages high-volume trading without penalty. What sets Little Pepe apart from the likes of DOGE is its dedicated meme Launchpad—a platform within its chain that allows meme creators to launch tokens, NFT collections, and community campaigns without worrying about high gas fees or hostile trading environments. This positions Little Pepe not only as a meme investment but also as a meme ecosystem…

Here’s the Cheap Crypto Set to Deliver the Big 2025 Gains Investors Hoped to See from Ripple (XRP) and Dogecoin (DOGE)

Ripple (XRP) and Dogecoin (DOGE) have had hype moments in 2025, but the explosive gains many investors expected still haven’t materialized.  While XRP’s price remains tied to long-term adoption narratives and DOGE’s momentum depends heavily on sporadic social media trends, one under-$0.003 token is quietly setting up for a launch that could eclipse both in […]

Pump.fun Regains Top Spot in Solana Memecoin Launchpads

Pump.fun Regains Top Spot in Solana Memecoin Launchpads

The post Pump.fun Regains Top Spot in Solana Memecoin Launchpads appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Solana-based memecoin launchpad Pump.fun recorded one of its strongest revenue weeks of 2025 in mid-August as the sector recovered from a dip earlier this month.  Decentralized finance (DeFi) data tracker DefiLlama showed that Pump.fun generated $13.48 million between Aug. 11 and Sunday, the platform’s strongest weekly revenue performance since February.  The increase came after a sharp revenue drop from July 28 to Aug. 3. During that time, Pump.fun brought in only $1.72 million in weekly revenue, its lowest since March 2024. This contributed to the platform’s revenue drop in July, its lowest monthly revenue this year.  The drop in revenue coincided with a broader memecoin market decline. CoinMarketCap data showed that on Aug. 3, the memecoin sector declined to a $62.11 billion market cap, a 20% fall from its $77.73 billion valuation on July 28, wiping out nearly $16 billion in a week.  Pump.fun weekly revenue data in 2025. Source: DefiLlama Pump.fun regains top spot in Solana launchpad rankings Pump.fun’s revenue increase coincides with a rebound in the broader memecoin space. According to CoinMarketCap, the memecoin sector recovered to nearly $75 billion on Aug. 11 before declining to $70 billion on Sunday. At the time of writing, memecoins had a total market cap of $66 billion.  Alongside its strongest weekly revenue record, the Pump.fun platform also regained its dominance in the Solana memecoin launchpad rankings. On July 7, a newly launched Solana platform called LetsBonk took the top spot for 24-hour revenue, surpassing Pump.fun.  According to the Solana decentralized exchange (DEX) aggregator Jupiter, LetsBonk’s dominance continued throughout July, gaining more market share than Pump.fun on many occasions. Still, Jupiter data suggests that Pump.fun has reclaimed the No. 1 spot. In the last seven days, the platform had a 73.6% market share and recorded $4.68 billion in trading volume. Furthermore, Jupiter…

Whale Burns $712K on Solana Memecoin $YZY as CT Calls Out…

The post Whale Burns $712K on Solana Memecoin $YZY as CT Calls Out… appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A Solana whale just torched $712K in four hours. He aped into @Solana’s newest memecoin, $YZY, with $768K. The chart ripped. Market cap touched $134M (CMC) before crashing. By the time he rage-sold, his stack was worth just $56K. The wipeout lit Crypto Twitter on fire. 🚨NEW: A whale bought $768K of @Solana memecoin $YZY, its market cap spiked to $134M and then dropped instantly. Just 4 hours later, he sold it for $56K — a ~$712K loss. pic.twitter.com/RpTFW2uIw8 — SolanaFloor (@SolanaFloor) August 20, 2025 Finnbags and the Kanye Play Behind $YZY is @finnbags, Founder & CEO of @BagsApp. Last night he launched the token himself. CT says he pulled a Sahil move: making memes, farming his own referrals, and steering liquidity. hey @kanyewest we made a $YZY coin for you on @BagsApp You get 100% of royalties earned from the trading volume of the coin. $50K has already been raised for you in the first 10 minutes. 70% of the supply is locked and can be transferred to you on a vesting schedule.… — FINN (@finnbags) August 19, 2025 The setup was wild: FINN bought 70% of supply at launch. 100% of trading fees went straight to Kanye West’s wallet. Market went full PvP. Cap nearly hit $13M (CMC) within hours. Then Finn tweeted at @kanyewest, telling him to “claim” the fees. Traders weren’t laughing. The chart nuked. Market cap dumped to $1.5M (CMC) overnight. Theories flew. Some pointed at Wintermute, calling it a money laundering op. Others just said it felt like a clout grab gone wrong. CT Starts Digging The backlash didn’t stop at the token. Clips of Finn’s old stream with @MrBeast resurfaced, no crypto talk in sight. Later, his appearance on @notthreadguy’s stream made things worse. Excuses didn’t land. Trust cratered. Every token tied to…
