Investment asset management firm VanEck has launched a Meme Coin Index for six cryptocurrencies on its Marketvector platform.

The VanEck Meme Coin Index

According to a screenshot shared by VanEck’s Head of Digital Asset Research Matthew Sigel, the  Marketvector Meme Coin Index (MEMECOIN) is a modified market cap-weighted index that tracks the performance of the largest memecoins.

Only six of the largest memecoins will be featured on this chart, with their component weighting capped at 30%. The memecoins that make it to the Index tracker will see a monthly review. The metrics that the Meme Coin Index will track include the price of the underlying assets, All-Time-High, All-Time-Low as well as high/low at certain designated periods.

With such a platform, crypto enthusiasts are likely to make more informed decisions about their investments. These crypto traders can ascertain the volatility of their memecoin of interest and manage their risks accordingly.  This becomes more important at a time as this when several memecoins like Dogwifhat (WIF) are experiencing valuation uptick.
