Inner Chain: Issue 15

🔎 Editor's Note

Welcome to the 15th edition of Inner Chain Crypto your weekly no-hype, straight-talking guide to what’s really happening in Crypto and Web 3, from a passionate squad of crypto enthusiasts from Brooklyn to Accra.

We Are So Back! 🚀

Is it ALT Season yet? Google searches for “Altcoins” just hit a 5 year all-time high and Memecoin madness continues to print. Ethereum is pumping, sitting at $4,600. Just two months ago it was $2,100 that’s a 2x. Institutional buyers keep piling in, betting big on ETH. The Accumulation phase is over. We go up from here. The Ethereum blockchain is becoming the institutional protocol. It is the home of tokenization, RWAs (real-world assets) and DEFI, making it the favorite of smart money.

On the horizon? Possible green light on ETFs for Solana, Avalanche, and XRP… and crypto could be making its way into 401(k) plans, for US customers.

We keep reminding you: LOCK IN and GET POSITIONED.

💹 Market Watch

🚀 🤑 Who wants to be a Memecoin Millionaire?

Crypto is about Meme coins and Utility projects. It is always suggested to have 5-10% of your portfolio in Meme coins, as they are high risk and can go to zero, but the rewards are exponential. However if you are a degen (degenerate), those rules do not apply.

Memecoins are the only asset where you can turn $50 into $50,000. Becoming a meme coin millionaire is possible. In 2021, @slumDOGEmillionaire kept buying through the dips on $DOGE coin, fueled by conviction, it paid off big, cementing him as the first DOGE coin millionaire.

In the meme coin world, conviction + timing can change your life. But keep in mind, if you have a portfolio of weak memes, or do not cash out near the top, it can all go to zero.

🫂 Cult Memes Matter

This market is full of hype and attention. The real power lies in die hard communities. These cult meme coins have loyal holders who keep the momentum alive through every dip and rally.

Whether it’s OG classics or new up-and-comers, these coins show us that conviction and culture can turn memes into multi-million dollar movements.

Community = Currency.

But which memes do you choose? Whichever ones have the loudest community. We made a list of top memecoins for 2025 that have strong cult communities, just for you.

OG Cults:

• WIF – The Shiba Inu with hat

• SPX6900 – Meme-stock crossover, one of the biggest cult communities

• MOG – Cat coin with sunglasses. pure “mogging” culture.
