This accumulation has pushed SEND’s fully diluted valuation (FDV) close to $18 million, signaling growing confidence in coin.

Goatseus Maximus (GOAT)

GOAT, once one of the most popular tokens in the Solana ecosystem, had been in a deep correction throughout 2025, dropping 58% year-to-date.

However, sentiment is starting to shift as GOAT has surged nearly 197% over the past seven days, making it the second-best performing Solana token with a market cap above $200 million.

Smart money activity is also heating up for the meme coin.

Although overall accumulation slowed slightly in the last few hours, total holdings remain up, and one smart wallet alone bought approximately $378,000 worth of MEW in the past 24 hours—highlighting continued interest from informed investors.

Worldcoin (WLD)

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s Worldcoin is back among the top-performing AI tokens, climbing 41% over the past week and reaching a market cap of $1.8 billion.
