The frenzy for meme shares is back and reflects the most intoxicating heights of last year-and it spills on meme cryptocurrencies such as Dogecoin and Shiba Inu.

House dealer Bed Bad In addition, (bbby) rose to 360 % in August, including a rally of 67 % on Tuesday considerable participation of the Gamestop chairman Ryan Cohen in the company.

Kinokette AMC has also experienced a return after almost 47 % (as of Wednesday, closing date). Private investors saved the company from bankruptcy last year and slowed down its empty sellers.

player and groundbreaking meme share Gamestop (GME) has also found new retail interest, with 19 % in the same period.

These movements represent a trend reversal in risk systems compared to a relatively quiet July than the macroeconomic environment was more tense. In the past few months, the markets have continued to be frightened by a tighter monetary policy to combat the increasing inflation and warnings of inflation dogecoins rose by about 16 % this month, while it is imitated Shiba inu has increased 24%.

Why meme coins are still relevant

In January 2021, the notorious Gamestop-Short-Squeeze attracted attention to stocks that were severely shortened by Wall Street Institutions.
