Analyst Darkfost said Bitcoin has recorded a maximum drawdown of 54% since reaching a high in October last year, with the asset now trading about 35% below that peak. Over the same period, cumulative sell pressure in the meme coin segment on Binance has exceeded $1.4 billion, making it one of the hardest-hit sectors in the current bear market. Darkfost said meme coins lack fundamental support and are driven mainly by market sentiment and cultural trends. He added that the sector’s share of total altcoin market capitalization has fallen to a record low of less than 3%, a sign that liquidity continues to leave the segment. In his view, meme coins tend to face heavier downside pressure during broader market corrections, and investors should stay alert to the risks tied to the category.
