Chart of the day: Solana memecoins flashing market maturity signals

Trading Volume-to-Market Capitalization (TV-MC) ratio is a metric used in crypto analytics to gauge the activity level and liquidity of a given asset or sector.


For Solana’s meme token sub-sector, recent data shows that meme tokens on the Solana network recorded a trading volume of $3.5 billion on November 7, while the sector’s market capitalization stands at approximately $13.4 billion, reflecting a TV-MC ratio of 0.26. 


Typically, TV-MC values between 0 .2 to 05 is symptomatic of a maturing market, without extreme speculation. Assets with values within this range are likely experiencing steady liquidity and consistent market engagement relative to their current market valuation. 


The Solana memecoin sector’s rising TV-MC ratio underlines steady growth and rising confidence within the global Solana memecoin community. The liquidity surge could potentially see top-ranked tokens like Dogewifhat (WIF), BONK and Book of Meme (BOME) avoid volatile price downswings when market retreats.

Gold hit a one-year low while central banks bought 321 tonnes — the sellers were never the ones you thinkSpot gold closed at 3,876 on Thursday, down 2.8% and its lowest close in more than a year, with an intraday low near 3,852. The dollar is at a 19-month high of 103.21 and the 10-year yield is at 5.10%, so the price move is easy to explain. What is harder to explain is who sold: central banks bought 321 tonnes in Q3, the PBoC added for a 24th straight month, ETF holdings are near a record 4,256 tonnes, and roughly 95% of the futures selling came from non-reportable and sovereign-type accounts rather than hedge funds. This piece separates the two books that have to balance.
