As Bitcoin (BTC) pumps to fresh more than two-year highs amid surging demand for its recently launched spot ETFs in the US, micro-cap meme coins in the on-chain markets are pumping, with investors using tools like DEXTools to hunt for top crypto gainers today.
Bitcoin rose above $57,000 on Tuesday as spot ETF trading volumes hit a new record.
ETF inflows, the upcoming halving and anticipated Fed rate cuts mean Bitcoin is odds on to hit fresh all-time highs above $69,000 this year.
That could mean near-term upside of at least 20%, making Bitcoin a must own asset in any crypto investors’ portfolio.

$BABYPEPE was up around 340% in the past 24 hours, as per DEXTools.
Its market cap has subsequently recovered to around $1.5 million.
