CZ Sparks a BNB Meme Coin Frenzy

In a post that quickly went viral, CZ praised the meme coin surge in its ecosystem as it gains rapid momentum. Within hours, a host of BNB meme coin projects began trending on DEX platforms. This resulted in sharp increases in volumes and prices.

One of the biggest gainers in this rally is GIGGLE. According to CoinMarketCap, the token soared 33.5% in 24 hours to a new all-time high of $140. This extended a 717% weekly surge.

The meme coin’s rise has been tied to Giggle Academy, a charitable initiative co-founded by CZ. The project has already raised $5.5 million through the meme coin trading fees. They converted more than 1,300 BNB into funding for free education.

Because trading fees are auto-converted into BNB rather than GIGGLE itself, the mechanism has helped minimize sell pressure. Analysts have dubbed it a “virtuous cycle.” However, they also warn that the token’s long-term momentum will hinge on maintaining its roughly 1,000 daily transactions. 

Another meme coin gaining traction is “4.” The token rallied by 19% in a day and 349% over the week. This came after CZ made a cryptic reference to the number “4” on social media. This triggered a massive influx of retail buyers and whale interest.

Market data shows 4’s market cap briefly topped $200 million, while 24-hour trading volume hit $290 million. This builds on the ecosystem momentum, especially after BNB Chain overtook Solana in overall meme coin trading dominance back in June.

BNB Meme Coins Outperform as Traders Bank Millions

Data from DeFiLlama shows that decentralized exchange (DEX) volume on BNB Chain surged to $6.05 billion on October 7. This marked one of its strongest trading days of 2025. PancakeSwap alone accounted for nearly $4.29 billion in turnover. 

Across the board, BNB meme coins are outperforming the broader crypto market. Tokens like PAUL and Binance Life have skyrocketed by 2,246% and 415%, respectively. Others, such as PUP and SZN, have seen gains of up to 5,600%. 

According to Bubblemaps, more than 100,000 traders have joined the BNB meme rush, with nearly 70% currently in profit.

Lookonchain data shows that several top traders have earned millions in profit from the latest meme surge. One address reportedly netted over $10 million from #4 alone, and others raking in $200,000–$700,000 from GIGGLE.

Analysts say the surge in these meme tokens was also fueled by liquidity rotation within the BNB ecosystem. For instance, data showed that whales moved profits from now Binance-affiliated-ASTER into 4 to exploit its smaller market cap.
