The Hippo Has Arrived
In a surprise move that only the meme trenches could deliver, MOODENG has charged its way into the top 5 meme coins in the entire Pump.fun ecosystem. As of May 9, the Solana-based token is up a ridiculous 175%, climbing past hundreds of contenders and settling in at the #5 spot by market cap among Pump.fun tokens.
The Solana Post confirmed the rally in a tweet earlier today, highlighting MOODENG’s explosive move and tagging it a “meteoric rally.” The coin now sits just behind GOAT and ahead of AVA and CHILGUY on the leaderboards names that have dominated the charts for weeks.
Numbers Don’t Lie
From the screenshot shared by The Solana Post, MOODENG is sitting pretty at:
•Price: $0.132597
•Market Cap: $133.5M
•24H Gain: +175%
The token is now outperforming veteran meme names like GRIFFAIN and CHILGUY, and has nearly caught up with ALCH and GOAT—both major players in the current meme cycle.
Why the Sudden Pump?
While MOODENG had been simmering quietly on the charts, the recent rally appears to be sparked by a combination of:
•Community Engagement: Twitter/X is now flooded with hippo memes, sticker packs, and reaction posts tied to $MOODENG.
•Chart Momentum: The token broke through several resistance levels on DEX tracking tools, triggering a chain reaction of buys.
•Solana Rotation: With ETH’s rally calming slightly, many degens are rotating profits back into Solana-based microcaps and MOODENG is catching that energy.
There’s also no denying the meme power. A baby hippo with a deadpan stare and a chaotic name? That’s meme fuel with legs and apparently, wings too.
Final Take
MOODENG isn’t just another meme coin it’s this week’s breakout surprise. And in the trenches of Pump.fun, momentum matters more than anything.Whether this hippo keeps charging forward or flops into the mud is anyone’s guess, but one thing’s clear: today, MOODENG belongs to the top-tier meme coin club.
