Gork, a new parody meme coin which imitates Elon Musk’s XAI Grok generative AI model, has seen an 84% surge today.
The move comes as Elon Musk rebrands his profile to Gorklon Rust, paying homage to the Gork X account.
Every time Musk changes his moniker, it creates a huge wave of excitement in the meme coin space, leading to immense gains. Another example was in December 2024, when he rebranded to Pepe-inspired Kekius Maximumus, causing the Pepe price to hit a new all-time high.
So with this in mind, what is the best meme coin to buy now?
Fartcoin
Besides Fartcoin, every top 10 meme coin is in the red this week. Fartcoin’s ability to stay afloat and even make a 2% gain reflects strong market appeal.
Beyond that, one of the reasons the Fartcoin could be a buy right now is that it holds a similar position to Gork in that it’s a meme with AI ties.
Fartcoin was ideated in a conversation between two AI agents in 2024. While its name and premise are simple and universally understandable, its AI roots present a unique outlook that helps it distinguish itself from other meme coins.
Something else to consider is that Fartcoin has been the best-performing major meme coin since March, with a 4x gain.
With momentum on its side and a narrative that fits perfectly into where the market’s attention currently lies, it’s easy to see how Fartcoin could keep gaining in the coming months.
MIND of Pepe
Musk’s latest rebranding is geared around AI, and the one before was geared around Pepe – but what happens when you mix AI and Pepe? Enter: MIND of Pepe.
If there was ever a cryptocurrency that could attract Musk’s interest, it might well be this.
But besides its Pepe-theme allure, what makes MIND of Pepe stand out from Gork and Fartcoin is that it has tangible AI utility.
The project has its own AI agent that scans the market to identify trading opportunities. It shares these opportunities with community members in the project’s gated Telegram channel.
If an agent identifies a potential opportunity but there are no cryptocurrencies within the niche, it can simply create its own crypto project to fill the gap.
In addition, the AI agent can also interact with dApps and write on social media.
The project is currently undergoing a presale, and it has raised $8.7 million so far. Considering its groundbreaking AI utility and early stage, MIND of Pepe appears to have huge growth potential.
Dogecoin
Musk is returning to his meme coin roots right now, which means he’ll probably promote Dogecoin again soon.
After he teamed up with Donald Trump before the election and the duo decided to create a new government agency called the Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E.), Musk continually made Dogecoin-themed tweets, which helped its price rally.
Dogecoin rallied from $0.1 in October 2024 to $0.46 in December of that year.
After Musk helped Dogecoin rise to an $80 billion market cap in 2021, questions were raised as to whether he would do the same this cycle. However, his Dogecoin-themed tweets in late 2024 confirm that he’s still a big fan.
If Musk begins to be about Dogecoin again this year, then we could see the market-leading meme coin start making strong gains.
