Memecoin Rizzmas surges 50% as Christmas approaches

Source: PortaldoBitcoin Original Title: Memecoin Rizzmas surges 50% as Christmas approaches Original Link: Christmas is approaching, and investors are getting into the holiday spirit with the memecoin Rizzmas, launched on the token launch platform, which has surged more than 50% in recent days, reaching a market cap above $4 million, before pulling back slightly.

The Rizzmas memecoin reached a market cap of $94.26 million at the end of November last year, before plummeting 98% to $1.76 million at the beginning of the following year. It then remained virtually inactive throughout 2025, hitting a low of $602,150 in March.

Since then, its value has increased by more than 600%, reaching a market cap of $4.38 million, before pulling back 12% to $3.82 million. Interestingly, the Solana-based memecoin hit a market cap high of $11.15 million in August.

Throughout this period, the team responsible for the Rizzmas memecoin community takeover has been working hard in hopes of making the token “reach its full potential.”

The team launched a minigame app for iOS, which they say uses ad revenue to burn Rizzmas tokens, released merchandise, and began creating Christmas-themed content. And that’s just the beginning.

“We have planned and are planning MANY things for our most important month,” said Naka Kash, CTO of the core Rizzmas team. “Billboards in New York, collaborations with big names, Rizzmas lottery, features on data platforms, new community-driven token burn mechanisms, major in-person marketing campaigns, and much more.”

Seasonal Memecoins

Rizzmas is just one of countless seasonal or event-themed cryptocurrencies that gain popularity throughout the year.

Often, the event is darker than Christmas celebrations, with cryptocurrencies gaining traction when a celebrity dies or as the anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attack approaches. Generally, the success of these cryptocurrencies is temporary, as the excitement and attention quickly fade after the event ends.

However, the team behind Rizzmas has tried to overcome this fate by evolving the meme to mean “rizz more” (something like “more rizz”). That’s because “rizz” is short for “charisma” (charisma) and a Gen Z slang term for flirting with someone, while “mas” is Spanish for “more” (more) — making the meme mean “flirt more.”

That said, at its core, Rizzmas is a festive meme. Last year, it led a wave of Christmas-themed memecoins right in the middle of the season.

At the time, the token launch platform peaked at 42,000 tokens per day, with nearly $5 million in daily revenue and $3.1 billion in weekly processed volume. These numbers have dropped significantly. Now, the platform creates only 21,800 tokens per day, generates $750,000 in daily revenue, and $568.3 million in weekly volume.
