Crypto trading sensation Ansem, known on X (formerly Twitter) as @blknoiz06, has directed the market’s gaze towards the Bitcoin Runes ecosystem, labeling it as the nascent grounds for the next 100x crypto opportunity, as NewsBTC reported yesterday. Ansem, whose prowess is well-documented through his previous astronomical gains of 170x on Solana (SOL), 520x on dogwifhat (WIF), and 80x on Bonk (BONK), stirred the crypto community with his recent Dogecoin comparison.

On the cusp of Bitcoin’s highly anticipated halving today, Ansem doubled down on his initial assessment, particularly highlighting two tokens within the Bitcoin Runes ecosystem: Bitcoin Wizards (WZRD) and PUPS. He equates WZRD with Dogecoin, suggesting it has the potential to mirror Dogecoin’s viral success. In contrast, he compares PUPS to the lesser-known but highly profitable dogwifhat (WIF).

Great thread, been saying, I believe Runes are next asymmetric 100x opp in crypto. The meme that got DOGE founder interested in Bitcoin & the phrase magic internet money is still used today – representative of bitcoin culture. DOGE equivalent = WZRD, WIF equivalent = PUPS.

Ansem references a thread on X by Immutable Edge (@ImmutableSOL), who delved into the historical and cultural significance of the “Magic Internet Money” meme, originally sparked by mavensbot’s viral Reddit ad.

The “Magic Internet Money” meme dates back to February 18, 2013, when mavensbot, a digital artist, submitted a hand-drawn depiction of a blue wizard to promote Bitcoin on Reddit. This ad, created during Bitcoin’s early adoption phase, was crucial in cultivating a cultural ethos around Bitcoin.

It resonated deeply within the community, encapsulating the whimsical yet revolutionary nature of Bitcoin’s rise. The ad’s simplicity and authenticity resonated with the Reddit community, propelling Bitcoin from a niche internet experiment to a major financial phenomenon. Within weeks of the ad’s debut, Bitcoin’s value surged from $27 to a record high of $1,132 by November 2013.

Bitcoin Wizards, one of the highlighted tokens, aims to rekindle this original spirit. The token leverages the iconic imagery and cultural narrative of the “Magic Internet Money” meme to foster a new wave of interest and adoption. The creators of WZRD are not only paying homage to Bitcoin’s roots but are also embedding this storied meme within the mechanics of a modern cryptocurrency, aiming to capture both nostalgia and innovation.

The Bitcoin Wizards project is part of the broader Bitcoin Runes ecosystem, which reached a lot of hype prior to its launch. According to Ansem, WZRD’s history and deep roots in memes give it the perfect ingredients to become the next Dogecoin, just on Bitcoin Runes.

Moreover, the analyst assessment comes at a critical time for the crypto market, which is often influenced by the narratives that capture the community’s imagination. As the Bitcoin halving event unfolds, many eyes will be on the Bitcoin Runes ecosystem to see if it can indeed replicate the meteoric rises seen in BRC-20 tokens and Ordinals.

At press time, WZRD traded at $12.15, up 70% in the last 24 hours.

Top 1 On-Chain Liquidation: ETH Bull Whale Hit With 4 Consecutive Forced Liquidations, $14.11 Million in Positions Liquidated

According to Hyperinsight monitoring, today’s largest liquidation on the Hyperliquid platform involved a high-leverage Ethereum (ETH) long whale.

The address now holds less than $150,000 in remaining funds, with all positions fully cleared. Address: 0x1cb0b187c14a8c0fb36ca0dcbb775dcc7f02b408

Dogecoin’s early success story fuels interest in Little Pepe as traders search for the next breakout memecoin.

Summary

Dogecoin early investors saw massive gains, and some traders now view Little Pepe as a potential high-upside memecoin contender. Little Pepe’s presale has reportedly raised over $28 million, with investors highlighting its meme-focused Layer 2 ecosystem, CertiK audit, and planned Tier-1 exchange listings. Supporters argue LILPEPE’s low presale valuation, structured vesting model, and growing online community create stronger long-term momentum than many speculative memecoins. One of the most lucrative success stories in crypto is Dogecoin. Treasure hunters bold enough to enter before DOGE gained popularity saw their initial investments grow to several million dollars.

Today, DOGE is a billion-dollar project, attracting whales and ETF talk. One of the DOGE success story investors now has his eyes fixed on the “next DOGE” moment: Little Pepe (LILPEPE). Here is why this under-$0.003 crypto is grabbing attention as its presale nears $28.2 million.

dogecoin momentum returns as investors search for the “next DOGE” Dogecoin continues to hold attention across the memecoin market as bullish sentiment slowly returns. DOGE recently stabilized above the key $0.10 support level while whale wallets accumulated a record amount of the token. Analysts are also watching growing institutional exposure through DOGE-related investment products and ETF developments.

Dogecoin Price Chart | Source: CoinGecko While many traders still expect DOGE to revisit higher levels if the broader market rallies, the reality is different from previous cycles. Dogecoin is now a mature large-cap asset with a market capitalization already measured in billions. That scale naturally limits the kind of explosive upside early investors once experienced.

This is why many memecoin traders are shifting their attention to newer projects with lower valuations and stronger early-stage growth potential. Historically, the largest gains in crypto rarely come after a token becomes mainstream. They usually come before exchange listings, institutional attention, and retail hype fully arrive.

Why some DOGE holders are moving into Little Pepe Little Pepe is increasingly being mentioned as one of the strongest low-cap memecoin opportunities of this cycle. It offers the exact early opportunity DOGE gave before its wealth-making run: sells for just $0.0022. 

The presale momentum has been impressive: Over $28.1 million raised and over 16.9 billion tokens sold across 13 stages. Early investors already sit on over 100% gains, with talks around tier-1 CEX listings further boosting market appetite for the next DOGE story.

However, Little Pepe offers substance with the meme vibe: a meme-only Layer 2 ecosystem. This environment is designed to be tax-free, resistant to sniper-bot attacks, and to serve as a launchpad for future meme launches. 

Other Developments Aiding in The Project’s Success Include:

CertiK audit strengthens investor confidence and security credibility Structured vesting system designed to reduce aggressive early dumping Planned Tier-1 centralized exchange (CEX) listings after launch Growing viral community participation across social platforms For many traders, this combination of meme branding and utility creates a much stronger long-term narrative than traditional memecoins that offer little beyond speculation.

The 50x narrative is starting to follow LILPEPE The comparison to Dogecoin’s early rally is becoming more common for one reason: valuation asymmetry.

DOGE already requires enormous amounts of new capital to generate another 50x move. LILPEPE, however, remains in its early funding stages, where smaller inflows can create significantly larger price movements once exchange demand begins.

This is the same reason many early DOGE investors originally saw outsized returns. They entered before the broader market recognized the narrative.

At its current $0.0022 presale price, traders increasingly view LILPEPE as one of the few meme coins still offering genuine early-entry positioning. Speculation around upcoming Tier-1 exchange listings has also accelerated attention around the project, as such listings have historically created major liquidity and visibility spikes for emerging meme tokens.

The project’s structured tokenomics also continues to attract attention. Unlike many meme launches that suffer from immediate sell pressure, LILPEPE’s tiered vesting structure is designed to support longer-term stability while maintaining market confidence after launch.

Giveaways and community growth continue fueling momentum Community momentum remains one of the strongest drivers behind memecoin expansion, and Little Pepe is leaning heavily into that strategy.

The project recently introduced major community incentives, including:

A $777,000 giveaway campaign Rewards for top presale participants Additional ETH-based buyer incentives Expanding meme creator engagement initiatives These campaigns are helping maintain strong visibility across crypto communities while driving urgency during the later presale phases.

At the same time, the rising presale price structure continues creating scarcity pressure. With Stage 14 expected to move pricing higher, many investors see the current entry level as one of the final opportunities before exchange pricing dynamics take over.

For traders searching for the kind of asymmetric opportunity DOGE once represented, LILPEPE is increasingly becoming one of the most discussed names under the $0.003 range.

With the presale still active at $0.0022, growing investor demand, and upcoming Tier-1 CEX listings approaching, many believe Little Pepe could become one of the strongest breakout memecoins of the next market cycle. Join now!
