Meme coins back in focus after September surge; what will drive the next rally?
Meme coins have quickly given back gains after a sharp September surge, shifting attention from price jumps to whether rallies can last. The rise is seen as driven less by coin-specific catalysts and more by bitcoin strength, short-position liquidations and a return of risk appetite. Analysts cited volume, open interest and bitcoin’s direction as key variables, warning that thin liquidity can amplify moves and reversals.
