Coin Metrics analyzed around 150 memecoins in its State of the Network report published on October 6, 2026. These tokens reach their peak in a median of 17.2 days, with a quarter peaking in less than 38 hours. The median time between that peak and a 95% loss reaches 370 days, or approximately one year. The study shows that 81% of tokens experienced a decline of at least 90% from their all-time high. The findings cover tokens with price data on at least one centralized exchange, excluding many memecoins launched on platforms like Pump.fun and limiting the generalizability of the conclusions.
