Hyperstition #39 — June 26, 2025
Pokemon meta returns, Housecoin derivatives proliferate, Pumpkin pumps, and more.
Evergreen memes rebound as trenches grasp for next narrative
Poke6900’s multi-million Dollar run sparks Pokemon coin craze.
Mortgage Coin revives housing meta.
Solami pump propels ‘OG’ crypto memes.
Solana-based meme coin traders are rotating into older and evergreen themes as the war narrative that dominated markets last week loses momentum.
Pokémon-branded coins, housing-related satire tokens, and ‘OG’ crypto-lore plays have emerged as top performers in the search for a new meta.
Pokémon meta returns with Poke6900 breakout
The Pokémon meme narrative resurfaced Tuesday following the launch of Poke6900 (POKE6900), a coin riffing on nostalgic branding and previous “6900” format runners like SPX6900.
The token climbed to a $3 million market cap within hours of launch. It trades at approximately $1.75 million as of June 26.
Its success has spawned a cascade of derivative plays, including:
Surprised Pikachu (Pikachu), which peaked at $300K before retracing to roughly $30K as of June 26.
First Edition Charizard (Charizard), a year-old token that revived from $16K to over $180K. It trades at roughly $55K as of June 26.
Although short-lived, the Pokémon trend underscores the market’s appetite for recognizable cultural hooks amid a quieter geopolitical backdrop.
Mortgage Coin boosts Housecoin derivatives
The launch of Mortgage Coin (MORTGAGE) has sparked renewed interest in real estate-themed tokens.
MORTGAGE references a viral policy announcement from the Director of the U.S. Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), who instructed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to consider cryptocurrency as collateral for mortgages.
The two government-sponsored enterprises, which buy loans from lenders and package them into securities, were directed to support what the FHFA called President Trump’s pro-crypto housing agenda.
The meme capitalized on this headline, climbing rapidly and reigniting enthusiasm for Housecoin (HOUSE) derivatives, including Chill House (CHILLHOUSE), farthouse (farthouse), Aurahouse (Aurahouse).
As of June 26, they trade at roughly $17M, $1.5M and $100K, respectively.
Other newly-launched HOUSE derivatives include Housefy (Houseification), PUMPHOUSE (PUMPHOUSE), and HOMELESS (HOMELESS).
Solami pump revives crypto-lore coins
Rounding out the trend is solami (solami), a meme coin playing on the widespread use of “Solami” as slang for SOL on crypto Telegram channels.
Solami surged from under $100K to $11 million late Tuesday night before retracing to the $2.5–3 million range. Its strong debut and familiar branding have prompted speculation that it could become a flagship OG meme in the post-war meta rotation.
Other older meme formats have also returned to prominence.
Technologia (TECH), a riff on a two-month-old viral TikTok clip, spiked to $3.5 million on June 25 before falling to $250K. It follows an earlier version, Technologia (TEK), which briefly surpassed $100K the same day before retracing to $15K.
Traders attributed TECH’s initial breakout to its launch by Larp von Trier, the developer of Keyboard Cat (KEYCAT), which currently trades around $30 million after hitting $200 million late last year.
Bullshit Fantasy Coin (BFC), a February launch from the Bitcoin-lore trend, rebounded past $100K this week after trading below $50K for most of June. It previously reached $6 million shortly after launch before rapidly retracing.
Cypherspace (CYPHER), a newly launched Bitcoin-themed token, broke $1 million on June 25 before slipping to roughly $500K. It joins a broader cohort of lore-linked tokens capitalizing on nostalgia and legacy meme culture.
With the Israel–Iran conflict cooling and no single dominant narrative, traders appear to be rotating into culturally legible formats and OG meme references in search of the next breakout.

Pumpkin, a Solana launchpad launched in March to compete with Pump.fun, saw its native token PUMPKIN (PKIN) spike from $1.6M to nearly $4M following the debut of Six Sigma, a sports betting platform. As of June 26, PKIN trades around $2.1M. Six Sigma’s token, SIX SIGMA (SIX), reached a $170M market cap on launch and remains above $100M.
