The metric shared by Darkfost measures memecoin market capitalization as a proportion of total altcoin market capitalization. A higher ratio indicates stronger investor appetite for memecoins, while a lower one suggests attention has shifted to other sectors.
The ratio rose above 10% in November 2025 during the memecoin bull run, reaching its highest level in the past three years. It has since fallen steadily to about 3.7%, the lowest level since February 2024.
Darkfost described the memecoin market as effectively being in a phase where investors are turning away from it.
