Remittix Raises $16 Million in Presale, Challenges Meme Coins

Dogecoin and Pepe have emerged as the dominant trends this week, with their trading volumes nearly ten times higher than that of Shiba Inu, which is currently priced at $0.00001350. While Shiba Inu is attempting to maintain its position, new and high-volume meme coins are capturing the attention of traders.

Meanwhile, a new contender, Remittix (RTX), has recently surpassed $16 million in presale funding, leading some to speculate that it could challenge meme coins during this altcoin season.

Despite a slight 1.31% price increase, Shiba Inu's trading volume remains significantly lower, at $322.46 million, lagging behind both Dogecoin and Pepe. Despite continuous SHIB burns and updates related to Shibarium, analysts suggest that Shiba Inu needs stronger catalysts to compete with newer DeFi tokens and upcoming meme coins.

Speculators continue to monitor Shiba Inu, particularly those interested in cryptocurrencies with practical real-world applications. However, there is a growing sentiment that attention may shift towards new altcoins and top-performing cryptocurrencies under $1 that offer superior real-world utility.

While Dogecoin and Pepe lead the meme coin volumes, Remittix (RTX) is gaining traction as a top crypto presale for 2025. With over $16 million raised, more than 550 million tokens sold, and a 50% token bonus still available, the project is gaining momentum. Unlike many meme coins, RTX offers genuine utility by addressing the $19 trillion international payments market with crypto-to-bank transfers.

The project is set to launch its wallet in Q3 2025, enabling users to transfer crypto into bank accounts across more than 30 countries. This feature is particularly beneficial for freelancers, companies, and remitters. The wallet supports over 40 tokens and offers real-time FX exchange.

Remittix appeals to investors seeking low gas fee cryptocurrencies with real-world applications, tired of hype-driven coins. Its CertiK audit, open roadmap, and potential as a cross-chain DeFi project make it one of the most promising upcoming crypto initiatives.

Key factors driving Remittix’s growth include its solution to the real-world problem of cross-border payments, having already raised over $16 million before reaching its $18 million soft cap, the upcoming Q3 2025 release of its real-time FX wallet, a 50% token bonus and a $250,000 giveaway currently in progress, and its utility-first strategy that attracts serious long-term investors.

As meme coin trading volumes rise and the altcoin season approaches, investors are closely watching both established and new cryptocurrencies. While Shiba Inu remains in the spotlight, the focus is shifting. If Remittix continues its current trajectory, it could soon surpass being just a DeFi altcoin and become the next big thing in crypto.
