Crypto analyst Murad has identified Solana memecoins WIF, GIGA, and POPCAT as top contenders for substantial gains in 2025. His analysis focuses on a unique metric: the ratio of market capitalization to the number of holders with over $1,000 invested. This ratio aims to reveal which Solana communities have the most significant and effective high-value investors.
WIF Leads with Highest Market Cap and Holder Efficiency
According to Murad’s data, Dogwifhat (WIF) stands out as the leading memecoin with a market cap of $1.559 billion. It boasts 22,064 holders with over $1,000 invested, resulting in a ratio of 70,658.09. GIGA follows with a ratio of 52,958.58, and POPCAT ranks third with a ratio of 43,937.13. These ratios indicate that WIF, GIGA, and POPCAT have concentrated and influential holder bases, suggesting strong potential for future growth.
Memecoin Market Faces Double-Digit Declines

Data from Lookonchain reveals that the top 10 memecoins have suffered an average drop of 63.73% from their peak values.

In contrast, POPCAT has shown relative resilience, with a decline of only 43.77%—the smallest among the top 10 memecoins. This relative stability could position POPCAT as a notable contender in the upcoming market cycle.
As the memecoin market evolves, WIF, GIGA, and POPCAT are emerging as potential winners for 2025, offering investors intriguing opportunities for substantial returns.
