2. Google searches for "Memecoin" suggest renewed retail interest. According to Golden Finance, Google searches for "Memecoin" have rebounded to 57 after a months-long slump. This indicates a significant increase in retail curiosity, but remains significantly below the peak of 100 reached in January amidst the hype surrounding the Trump memecoin launch. This metric measures relative search interest on a scale of 0 to 100, with 100 representing the highest search volume during a specific time period. Therefore, it serves as a useful indicator of mainstream retail investor participation in speculative crypto assets. Current readings suggest a modest recovery in interest in memecoins, rather than the explosive growth seen in early 2025, potentially signaling a more sustainable pattern of interest.
