As crypto markets pump in wake of a more dovish than expected Fed policy announcement, with Bitcoin (ETH) and Ether (ETH) bouncing 11% and 14% from intra-day lows to near $68,000 and $3,500, trader hunting for the top crypto gainers today are flocking to the on-chain markets.
On-chain markets refer to the market for digital assets that have been issued directly on top an existing blockchain.
For example, the Shiba Inu (SHIB) token is issued on Ethereum as an ERC-20 token.
These tokens can then be traded on decentralized exchanges (DEX), and also perhaps on centralized exchanges if they get big enough.
They are often referred to as meme coin (or shitcoin) markets because virtually anyone can issue a token at any time.

PNUT claims to be a Pepe looking squirrel, and is also based on Solana.
PNUT was last up around 88,000% in 24 hours, reaching a market cap of $7.6 million.
