The meme coin era may be cooling off again. Although Shiba Inu continues to enjoy massive social visibility. Meanwhile, tokens like PEPE, Remittix (RTX), and AAVE are seeing steady inflows from traders searching for stronger setups ahead of 2026’s expected market rally.
The Shiba Inu price is $0.00000960 and the project briefly captured attention this week after its inclusion. Its inclusion in T. Rowe Price’s $1.77 trillion multicrypto ETF filing as an actively managed product featuring Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and SHIB. While this listing marks a symbolic milestone for Shiba Inu
Despite the ETF news, SHIB’s price action has been muted, failing to build meaningful volume or break resistance. Market watchers say that inclusion in institutional products does not automatically translate to sustained demand. With meme coin dominance fading and new utility projects gaining ground, SHIB’s upside may stay limited unless new use cases emerge.
PEPE: Final Accumulation Before Potential Rally

The PEPE price is $0.0000060 and analysts believe the token is entering its last accumulation phase before a major move. A chart from Wins Crypto Trading School highlights a breakout target, placing the next potential top near $0.00012 by early 2026.
The descending wedge pattern on the chart signals tightening consolidation, while Fibonacci extensions align with targets at $0.000015, $0.000035 and finally $0.00012. Market cap projections jump from $2.9 billion to $48 billion under this model. Historical data shows a similar formation before the last PEPE rally in 2024, the one that preceded a 288% surge.
Whales seem to be gathering once more around $0.00000728, where on-chain data indicates increased wallet activity. If volume breaks resistance, analysts foresee PEPE retesting its all-time high and outperforming legacy meme coins such as Shiba Inu in 2026.
AAVE: Fundamentals Stay Solid Amid Market Volatility

The AAVE price is at $211. Despite recent weakness, the project remains fundamentally sound in the longer term due to continued protocol growth and plans for a $50 million buyback. Upcoming V4 upgrade promises improved capital efficiency and better yield models for institutional users.
Technically, AAVE trades below major EMAs, with resistance at $235 and support between $222–$225. RSI near 40 signals weak momentum, but network activity remains steady. Analysts expect recovery once broader DeFi sentiment improves, as Aave remains the market’s leading decentralized lending platform.
Remittix: Utility and Verification Drive Investor Interest
Unlike speculative meme tokens, Remittix (RTX) offers a utility-first approach through its PayFi network, bridging crypto with real-world banking. The project lets users send crypto directly to bank accounts in over 30 countries, making it one of the few payment-focused coins delivering working infrastructure today.

Final Thoughts: Investors Rotate From Hype to Fundamentals
The latest market data shows a clear rotation from Shiba Inu to coins with real use cases and growth potential. PEPE remains the standout among meme coins due to its accumulation pattern, but Remittix and AAVE lead the way for investors prioritizing fundamentals, scalability, and verified progress.
