MUBARAK Memecoin’s Meteoric Rise: Hype Or Opportunity?
By Vishakha Thakur
It might sound unbelievable, but trust me, this news could be the best thing you’ve heard. The story comes straight from the memecoins market, where one trader turned just $232 into over $1.1 million—yes, you read that right—a 4,860x return. And this all happened thanks to a meme coin called MUBARAK, based on the Binance Smart Chain, which has seen its price surge by up to 300% in recent days. As you know, the world of memecoins runs on speculation, and when traders learned that Binance’s former CEO, Changpeng Zhao (CZ), had invested in this memecoin, they jumped on the opportunity.
In fact, trading activity spiked by over 70%, with the meme token hitting a market cap of $443 million. As of March 19th, this memecoin’s market cap is around $170 million. Now, in today’s discussion, we’ll look at: Mubarak Memecoin’s Meteoric Rise, Vitalik Buterin’s Memecoin Dump, and Cathie Wood’s Take On Memecoins. Mubarak is a meme coin based on Binance Smart Chain, launched on March 14th. It started as a low-cap token, but things changed when Lookonchain tweeted that Binance’s former CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ) had purchased 1 BNB worth of Mubarak memecoin.0
Now, an investment of just 1 BNB might not sound like a big financial move, but for crypto traders, this was a signal that something major could be coming. FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) kicked in, and Mubarak’s price pumped by 325%. In fact, its trading volume surged so quickly that for a while, Mubarak overtook popular memecoins like Solana’s BONK and FLOKI. Moreover, Binance Smart Chain surpassed Solana in DEX volume, reaching $1.637 billion in just 24 hours, giving it a 34% advantage over Solana. However, this wasn’t just a random pump; there was another major factor behind it.
Just days before, Abu Dhabi’s MGX Fund had announced a $2 billion investment in Binance. Along with that, when Mubarak coin was listed on Binance Alpha, whales also started making their moves. The question now is: Is Mubarak just a short-term hype, or does it have long-term potential? As we’ve mentioned before, the world of memecoins is driven by speculation. As long as sentiment remains strong, price movements will be aggressive. However, it’s important to remember that long-term trends can never be predicted based on just one event. While the market was celebrating Mubarak’s pump, another interesting move happened. Ethereum’s co-founder, Vitalik Buterin, dumped multiple memecoins, accumulating 71.69 ETH, which is about $136,684. The list of memecoins he dumped included some well-known names like 146.18 billion FML, 180.88 billion SHIB, 7.17 billion VB, 366.47 million AWESOME, and 5,000 DHN. The reason behind this dump isn’t clear, but the sentiment towards memecoins is currently negative. In fact, Cathie Wood, CEO of Ark Invest, even said in an interview, “most meme coins are not going to be worth very much.” She warned investors to be cautious with memecoins, emphasizing that “Memecoins remain unregulated, and regulators won’t protect against potential losses.”
She also pointed out that these coins are based on jokes or cultural references and, in the long term, won’t remain valuable. Memecoins are a high-risk, high-reward category. Prices of coins like Mubarak can rise by over 300% overnight, but they can fall just as quickly. If you’re considering investing in memecoins, make sure to do your research, avoid falling for FOMO, and always consult with your financial advisors before making any investment decisions.
