What are the newest memecoins?

Memecoins are popping off today — a mix of genuinely brand-new launches and older ones suddenly catching search attention. Here's what's hot right now, ranked by current search interest (not performance).

The trendiest new/meme names right now:

PonsPONS#112 — PONS, $476M cap, +32% in 24h. Newly trending with heavy volume.

Lil' ShrubSHRUB#810 — SHRUB, $20M cap, +72% in 24h. A very fresh, small-cap launch — classic early-meme volatility.

Useless Coinuseless#174 — USELESS, $205M cap, +58% in 24h. Big spike today.

Artificial Inuai#149 — AI, $253M cap, down ~5% today after running up.

BasecatBASECAT#427 — BASECAT, $53M cap, +64% in 24h. New Base-chain cat meme.

Pudgy Penguinspengu#103 — PENGU, $541M cap, +2.9% today.

And a couple of fresh faces just breaking into the meme market-cap ranks:

• MarsCoin — $128M cap, +94% in 24h, very new.
• Cash Cat — $265M cap, -3.9% today after its listing run.

A few important context notes: "trending" here means search attention, which often spikes after a big move — so a name like Lil' Shrub or MarsCoin being up huge today is exactly when that attention shows up. Newer, smaller meme coins swing violently in both directions (thin liquidity, hype cycles measured in days, and anyone can list a token with the same name as a hyped project). These are the higher-risk end of the meme category — worth treating as very high-volatility, not stable picks.

Want me to pull the full project write-up + on-chain security check on any one of these? That shows the liquidity-lock status, holder concentration, and tax flags before you look closer.
