3 Meme Coins to Add to Your Portfolio Alongside Shiba Inu to Turn $500 into $10,000

The meme coin space is still growing beyond the ranks of more established tokens, such as Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Dogecoin (DOGE), introducing a new breed of utility and amusement-based tokens on blockchain. With investors considering the idea of diversification in the realm of memes, three new projects, including Little Pepe (LILPEPE), Bonk (BONK), and Hamster Kombat (HMSTR), are rising in popularity due to their approach to innovation, well-built communities, and the potential for growth at their initial stages. 

1. Little Pepe (LILPEPE): The Meme Coin Layer 2 Pioneer

 Little Pepe (LILPEPE)

The first Layer 2 blockchain specifically designed to serve meme coins is Little Pepe (LILPEPE), which integrates scalability, low fees (the lowest), and safety into one system. In its presale, currently in Stage 13, the LILPEPE tokens are priced at $0.0022, and it has raised $27.18 million of its $28.77 million target, which represents an impressive 95.82% rate. It means that there is increased confidence among the earlier adopters. Unlike typical meme coins that rely on hype, Little Pepe introduces real blockchain infrastructure. It features a Memes Launchpad designed for developers to launch meme tokens efficiently while also preventing sniper bots, a feature rarely seen in other chains. The project’s 0% buy/sell tax reinforces its commitment to fairness and decentralization, while staking rewards and liquidity allocations ensure the long-term health of the ecosystem. It will be further enhanced by the Little Pepe Mega Giveaway, where the biggest shoppers will be rewarded on Stages 12-17. Although there are still 68 days to go and more than 82,000 submissions, the participants will be able to get their share of over 15 ETH of prizes. In particular, 15 lucky winners will receive 0.5 ETH, and the best buyer will be provided with 5 ETH. This initiative is driving community engagement while reinforcing the project’s playful yet structured growth strategy. Data from CoinMarketCap already lists LILPEPE, and two top-tier centralized exchange (CEX) listings are expected at launch, alongside plans to list on the world’s largest exchange. 

2. Bonk (BONK): Solana’s Community Powerhouse

The flagship token, Bonk (BONK), of Solana (SOL) is on the rise, and as the Solana ecosystem grows, so does the token. It has benefited from the network’s resurgence, low transaction costs, and developer activity. Data from CoinMarketCap shows growing total value locked (TVL) within Solana protocols, indirectly boosting BONK’s visibility and liquidity.

Although BONK does not have the multi-chain innovation of Little Pepe, it does well in the area of grassroots engagement. The token has been massively disbursed to Solana users via airdrops, forming one of the most powerful natural communities within the meme coin ecosystem. With Solana's price on the mend, the network's success may provide BONK with a favorable opportunity to attract investors interested in the growth of the Solana ecosystem.

3. Hamster Kombat (HMSTR): Play-to-Earn Meets Meme Culture

Hamster Kombat (HMSTR) is a meme-based utility gaming application on Telegram and may develop into a play-to-earn (P2E) gaming application through its potential gamified earning mechanisms for Telegram's user base, allowing HMSTR tokens to be earned by performing tasks on the application. 

If Hamster Kombat can successfully transition from a meme token to a gaming token, it could obtain network effects similar to those of early meme tokens by combining entertainment value with accessibility to decentralized finance applications.

Conclusion

While Shiba Inu (SHIB) is the leading memecoin by market capitalization, newer meme tokens offer diversification and potential for higher returns. Examples include Little Pepe (LILPEPE) with its meme-centric Layer 2 blockchain, the community-driven presale of Bonk (BONK), which consolidates Solana's DeFi ecosystem, and Hamster Kombat (HMSTR), which combines gaming and memes, continuing the expansion of the memecoin landscape. The growth of the projects has thus far relied on meme phases, which encompass infrastructure and liquidity, as well as community and interactivity. These mints will provide the opportunity for $500 investments to spin future value. If you take the plunge into the volatile world of meme coins in 2025, each of these coins deserves consideration.
