The second-biggest dog coin by market cap, Shiba Inu (SHIB), is having its day Saturday, with the Ethereum-based token jumping to an eight-month high price—all while top dog Dogecoin (DOGE) charts more modest gains.
Shiba Inu saw a sharp spike Saturday evening, popping to a price of $0.00002969 before cooling off slightly to a current price of $0.00002897. Even at the subdued price, SHIB is up more than 12% on the day—and the last time it hit Saturday's peak was back on April 1, eight months ago.
Dog-themed meme coins aren't broadly blazing hot on the day, with Bonk (BONK) and Dogwifhat (WIF) only up approximately 1% each over the past 24 hours. But the Ethereum-based Floki (FLOKI) has jumped by nearly 6% today.
Dogecoin, meanwhile, is nearing a one-week high price at a current mark above $0.43, up 3% on the day. Last Saturday, DOGE hit a three-year high price of $0.475; but even at the current price, DOGE has climbed by 164% over the past month.
Another prominent meme coin, Brett (BRETT)—the top meme minted on Ethereum layer-2 network Base—popped to an all-time high price of $0.2032 on Saturday, and is currently up 17% over the past 24 hours.
