Meme Coin Sector Sees Green Day Led by Dogecoin
The meme coin sector had a green day on August 11, 2026, with Dogecoin leading the charge. DOGE rose 3.7 percent to $0.0723, worth $11.24 billion, while Baby Doge added 3.0 percent and SHIB slipped 2.3 percent. The sector as a whole finished up 0.92 percent at $25.52 billion, with $1.56 billion of turnover.
The strong performance was driven by DOGE's gain, which carried it to its current price from around 90 percent below its record high set in May 2021. Baby Doge's smaller cap meant that a 3.0 percent move added less value to the sector than DOGE's rise.
Meanwhile, Bullski is nearing the end of its presale, with stage one on track to sell out after around 96 percent of tokens were allocated in just 24 hours.
