On July 11, ETH returned to the $3,000 mark after nearly five months, attracting market attention. As the mainnet's upward signal was released, the Meme sector in the ETH ecosystem also rebounded collectively, and multiple tokens rose in the short term, and market sentiment quickly warmed up.
Therefore, digging deep into the projects with real growth potential in the ETH ecosystem is becoming a key path to finding Alpha. This article will focus on four potential projects that are currently popular and have both fundamentals, and analyze and summarize them.
$MANYU: The internet celebrity Shiba Inu with 20 million fans
$MANYU is a "spoiled Shiba Inu" and is also a rare project IP in the current Meme market with a real traffic base. Its prototype has more than 20 million fans on social media platforms, and the total number of video views has exceeded 360 million.
Within just five days after the project was launched, it became the most popular on CoinMarketCap, with a 14-fold increase in 7 days. The current market value has exceeded 42 million US dollars, the number of currency holding addresses has exceeded 10,000, and the exposure has exceeded 700,000 times. $MANYU is eager to create the most promising new Shiba Inu king after $DOGE and $SHIB through the light mode route of "IP + community + pure emotion drive".
$BOOE: The Crypto Bible Written on Ethereum
$BOOE constructs a narrative blueprint in the form of a "sacred manuscript", depicting the Ethereum ecosystem as an epic spanning myths and codes. It emphasizes digital sovereignty, the prophecy of decentralized finance, and the eternal wisdom that drives Ethereum civilization forward. From "decentralized prophecy" to "eternal wisdom on the chain", $BOOE is eager to build the world's belief in Ethereum.
In addition to the fascinating narrative, the trading lineup behind $BOOE is also worth paying attention to. The Ethereum whale "fbb4", who successfully traded two billion-dollar projects, $Pepecoin and $BasedAI, recently spent $800,000 to buy $BOOE, intending to create another legend.
At the same time, the project has also attracted the attention of key figures in the Ethereum ecosystem. Joseph Lubin, an executive of the recently popular Ethereum microstrategy SBET, followed the $BOOE project Twitter. Ethereum co-founder Anthony publicly interacted with "Winner winner" to express his support for the project, making $BOOE have all the imagination before the outbreak in both cultural and capital dimensions.
$SBET: The Token of the Same Name as “ETH Micro Strategy”
$SBET is a derivative of "ETH micro-strategy" Shaplink Gaming. Although this token of the same name has not been officially endorsed, it has successfully ignited market sentiment with the company's actual heavy position in ETH. With ETH breaking through $3,000 again, this token quickly became popular and became an emotional outlet for retail investors and the community.
Compared with the Ethereum Foundation, which continues to sell ETH, SharpLink's operation has injected a shot of adrenaline into "E Guards": from June 23 to 30, SBET spent about $22.8 million to buy 9,468 ETH at an average price of $2,411. So far, its total holdings have reached 205,957 ETH, all of which have been pledged on the chain, only 40,000 away from the Ethereum Foundation, and it is very likely to surpass it. Since the launch of the strategy on June 2, SBET has received 222 ETH staking rewards, building a stable cash flow model for it.

The stock price trend also gave clear feedback: SharpLink started from the bottom of $7 and has risen all the way to the current $18.48, more than doubling, becoming the most representative star target in the "ETH micro-strategy" sector. The rise of the Meme coin of the same name is undoubtedly the "natural product" of the intersection of financial narrative and cultural speculation.
$IMF: The “shadow bank” of the mainnet meme
IMF (International Meme Fund) is a decentralized financial platform tailored for the mainnet meme, allowing users to use their $PEPE, $JOE, $MOG and other meme coins as collateral to borrow stablecoins $USDS, which can be cashed out without selling. At the same time, through modules such as Accelerate and Amplify, project owners or whales can also leverage to pull the market, recycle loans to protect the market, and even create the illusion of "locking positions", but in fact they can achieve early shipment and shadow fund management.
Currently, IMF has rapidly grown into one of the most influential liquidity engines in the meme circle - not only the 34th largest $PEPE holder, but also the largest holder of $MOG and $JOE. The $USDS raised by the platform is growing at a very fast rate, becoming the most powerful financial lever behind the meme market, attracting more funds and market attention.
Summarize
ETH's return to $3,000 not only sends a signal of the mainnet's value, but also injects long-lost vitality into the Meme sector in the ETH ecosystem. This round of mainnet Meme's upward movement is more like "an old story repeated at a new high" - who can cross the emotional tide and support long-term value still needs time and further verification from the market.
