While most emerged as significant assets, others failed along the way. It should also be noted that some of these cryptocurrencies were scammy projects. Meme crypto coins like Dogecoin [DOGE] grew into immense popularity. The emergence of the crypto meme revolution lured several to roll out similar joke currencies. However, things always don\u2019t go as planned. <\/p>\n<p>According to recent data compiled by PeckShield, TeddyDoge [TEDDY], a coin inspired by Dogecoin, encountered a pump and dump. The firm noted that TEDDY dropped by 99.4 percent. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\" \/>\n<p>The person behind the rug pull got away with a whopping 10,000 BNB tokens, and this was worth around $2.5 million. In addition to this, another $2 million worth of Binance USD [BUSD] was also taken. <\/p>\n<p>Following this, many exchanges came forward to drop support for the Dogecoin rip-off. BitMart affirmed that it would suspend all TEDDY-related features. The project finally decided to speak up. In a recent tweet, the network said, <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We are actively discussing the next step with the exchange to replace the new DRAC tokens with TEDDY tokens, for which we are sorry. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/zSeu7Cpdhn\" rel=\"noopener\">pic.twitter.com\/zSeu7Cpdhn<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 DRAC_Network (@DRAC_Network) <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DRAC_Network\/status\/1551500783203524609?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"noopener\">July 25, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 id=\"h-rug-pulls-taking-a-toll-on-ogs-like-dogecoin\">Rug pulls taking a toll on OGs like Dogecoin?<\/h3>\n<p>Individuals are bound to pour their money into similar projects by looking at the progress that Dogecoin, Shiba Inu [SHIB], and BabyDoge coin have made. Despite their dainty prices, the double-digit surges that were often seen have lured many. However, most of them seem to be trying to run away with the funds of naive investors. <\/p>\n<p>Not only does this cause investors loss, but it also questions the credibility of the crypto industry. <\/p>\n<p>CoinMarketCap <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/view\/memes\/?page=4\" rel=\"noopener\">revealed<\/a> that there are more than 400 meme crypto coins. However, very few have managed to leave a mark.
