Memecoins have emerged as one of the biggest trends in the crypto industry in 2024, posting the highest returns of 1,312% on average across the top tokens by market capitalization.


While generating record-breaking returns, memecoins have triggered controversy and concerns over whether such tokens serve crypto’s original purpose.


Some prominent crypto figures like Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino are skeptical about memecoins because they are “completely at the opposite parts of the spectrum” than Bitcoin (BTC).Ether turned inflationary in Q2 2024


Among other insights in CoinGecko’s crypto industry report, the firm mentioned that Ether (ETH) became inflationary, meaning that its purchasing power declined due to increases in supply.


According to CoinGecko, Ethereum added 120,000 ETH to the circulating supply in Q2 2024 out of 228,543 ETH emitted. As 107,725 ETH were burned, the Ethereum network turned inflationary during the past quarter.


As previously reported, the Ether supply ceased to be deflationary for the first time in May 2024 following Ethereum’s Dencun upgrade, which went live in March 2024.
