Subculture Meme Drives Independent Price Action of Japan-Related Meme Coins, with "114514" Leading the Way
BlockBeats News, January 6th, according to GMGN monitoring, recently, the resurgence of the trend originating from the Japanese internet subculture "Beast Ancestor" (also known as "Inmu Meme") has once again surged, driving the independent market of Solana-based Meme coins, rapidly increasing market attention. Among them, multiple tokens represented by the Pump Live streaming token "114514" have flooded social platforms, and currencies such as YAJUCOIN and 42069 quickly entered the popular list after going online, further fueling market sentiment. Some Meme coin information is as follows:
114514: The market value is currently reported at $42 million, with a daily peak of $57 million, a current price of about $0.042, and a 700% increase in 24 hours;
42069: The market value is currently reported at $1.4 million, with a daily peak of $2.48 million, a current price of about $0.0014, and a 2900% increase in 24 hours;
YAJUCOIN: The market value is currently reported at $960,000, with a daily peak of $3.56 million, a current price of about $0.0009, and a 7200% increase in 24 hours;
BEAST: The market value is currently reported at $240,000, with a daily peak of $490,000, a current price of about $0.0002, and a 260% increase in 24 hours;
The number "114514" is derived from the Japanese classic subculture meme "Beast Ancestor," whose homonym corresponds to the Japanese phrase "ii yo, koi yo" (meaning "okay, come"). The meme originated from an ancient video from 2001 and has been circulating in the Japanese subculture for over 20 years, with a certain community recognition base.
This market trend may be driven by multiple factors: including Japan's expected reduction of cryptocurrency tax burden from 55% to 20%, plans to allow direct listing of crypto assets, and policy benefits, while the recent overall market recovery and the collective recovery of the Solana-based Meme sector have also provided emotional support.
