According to the Token Mindshare—an index that quantitatively measures the influence of specific tokens in the crypto market—on the AI-based Web3 search platform Kaito, the top 5 trending crypto-related keywords as of the 24th are: USDC, VanEck, Binance Coin (BNB), TurtleClub (TURTLECLUB), and Solana (SOL).

Ranked 1st is the stablecoin USDC.

With its IPO price set at $31, its value has skyrocketed by 740% in just about 12 trading sessions.

VanEck holds 2nd place. VanEck drew investors' attention by participating in the Nasdaq opening bell ceremony that day. Notably, a Pudgy Penguin plush joined the event alongside VanEck, sparking major buzz in the community.

Binance Coin came in 3rd. Investor interest surged after news emerged of a company planning to accumulate Binance Coin. According to crypto-specialized media outlet CoinDesk, a project led by former Coral Capital Holdings partners Patrick Horsman, Joshua Kruger, and Jonathan Pessy is preparing to raise $100 million in funds to establish Build and Build Corporation for Binance Coin accumulation.

TurtleClub ranked 4th, seeing a surge in mentions after being added to Kaito's Yapper leaderboard.
