Rizzmas is Back? Christmas Solana Meme Coin Wakes From Hibernation

3 min read

In brief

  • Solana meme coin Rizzmas has surged over the past 24 hours.
  • The most recent surge comes a year after the token hit a whopping $94.26 million market cap, during 2024’s festive meme coin bull run.
  • The Rizzmas team says that it has big plans for December, including New York City billboards, to attempt to break last year’s high.

Christmas is approaching, and Solana meme coin traders are getting into the festive spirit—with the Pump.fun-created token Rizzmas surging 54% to a market cap of $4.38 million on Tuesday, before pulling back slightly.

Rizzmas soared to a $94.26 million market cap in late November last year, before crashing 98% to $1.76 million by the new year. It then lay mostly dormant throughout 2025, hitting a low of $602,150 in March. Since then, it has soared more than 600% to a market cap of $4.38 million, according to DEX Screener, before retracing 12% to $3.82 million. In fact, the meme coin weirdly hit a local high market cap of $11.15 million in August.

Throughout this period, the Rizzmas meme coin community takeover, or CTO, team has been grinding away in the hopes of making the token reach “its full potential.” The team has rolled out an iOS mini-game app, which the team said uses ad revenue to burn Rizzmas tokens, released merchandise, and has started to create Christmas-themed content. And this is just the start, the team told Decrypt.

“We planned and are planning a LOT of things for our biggest month,” Naka Kash, Rizzmas CTO core team, told Decrypt. “NYC billboards, collabs with big names, Rizzmas lottery, CoinMarketCap boosts, new burning mechanisms powered by the community, huge real-life marketing campaigns, and more.”

Rizzmas is just one of countless seasonal or event-driven meme coins that surge in popularity throughout the year. Oftentimes, the event is darker than Christmas celebrations, with meme coins surging when a celebrity dies or when the anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attack approaches. Usually, the success of these tokens is temporary as hype and attention quickly wanes once the event has passed.

However, the team behind Rizzmas has attempted to move beyond this fate by evolving the meme to mean rizz more, Kash explained. That’s because rizz is short for charisma and Gen Z slang for flirting with someone, while mas is the Spanish translation for more—thus making the meme flirt more.

That said, at its core Rizzmas is a festive meme. Last year, it found itself leading a surge for Christmas-themed meme coins right in the middle of meme coin season. 

At the time, its token launchpad Pump.fun peaked by deploying 42,000 tokens every day, had a daily revenue of almost $5 million, and processed $3.1 billion in weekly volume. These figures have dropped significantly. Now, Pump.fun creates just 21,800 a day, attracts $750,000 in daily revenue, and $568.3 million in weekly volume, according to Dune data.

“We understand that the trenches and the market as a whole are not the same as they were last year,” Kash told Decrypt. “But we take on the challenge, we believe in what we’ve built, we aim to be the gold standard for Solana, and show that in this space of scams and rugs, there are legitimate projects too. We will continue to build and grow Rizzmas regardless of the market conditions.”

Cashing In On University Patents Means Giving Up On Our Innovation Future

The post Cashing In On University Patents Means Giving Up On Our Innovation Future appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. “It’s a raid on American innovation that would deliver pennies to the Treasury while kneecapping the very engine of our economic and medical progress,” writes Pipes. Getty Images Washington is addicted to taxing success. Now, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick is floating a plan to skim half the patent earnings from inventions developed at universities with federal funding. It’s being sold as a way to shore up programs like Social Security. In reality, it’s a raid on American innovation that would deliver pennies to the Treasury while kneecapping the very engine of our economic and medical progress. Yes, taxpayer dollars support early-stage research. But the real payoff comes later—in the jobs created, cures discovered, and industries launched when universities and private industry turn those discoveries into real products. By comparison, the sums at stake in patent licensing are trivial. Universities collectively earn only about $3.6 billion annually in patent income—less than the federal government spends on Social Security in a single day. Even confiscating half would barely register against a $6 trillion federal budget. And yet the damage from such a policy would be anything but trivial. The true return on taxpayer investment isn’t in licensing checks sent to Washington, but in the downstream economic activity that federally supported research unleashes. Thanks to the bipartisan Bayh-Dole Act of 1980, universities and private industry have powerful incentives to translate early-stage discoveries into real-world products. Before Bayh-Dole, the government hoarded patents from federally funded research, and fewer than 5% were ever licensed. Once universities could own and license their own inventions, innovation exploded. The result has been one of the best returns on investment in government history. Since 1996, university research has added nearly $2 trillion to U.S. industrial output, supported 6.5 million jobs, and launched more than 19,000 startups. Those companies pay…

Top Solana Treasury Firm Forward Industries Unveils $4 Billion Capital Raise To Buy More SOL ⋆ ZyCrypto

Top Solana Treasury Firm Forward Industries Unveils $4 Billion Capital Raise To Buy More SOL ⋆ ZyCrypto

The post Top Solana Treasury Firm Forward Industries Unveils $4 Billion Capital Raise To Buy More SOL ⋆ ZyCrypto appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Advertisement &nbsp &nbsp Forward Industries, the largest publicly traded Solana treasury company, has filed a $4 billion at-the-market (ATM) equity offering program with the U.S. SEC  to raise more capital for additional SOL accumulation. Forward Strategies Doubles Down On Solana Strategy In a Wednesday press release, Forward Industries revealed that the 4 billion ATM equity offering program will allow the company to issue and sell common stock via Cantor Fitzgerald under a sales agreement dated Sept. 16, 2025. Forward said proceeds will go toward “general corporate purposes,” including the pursuit of its Solana balance sheet and purchases of income-generating assets. The sales of the shares are covered by an automatic shelf registration statement filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission that is already effective – meaning the shares will be tradable once they’re sold. An automatic shelf registration allows certain publicly listed companies to raise capital with flexibility swiftly.  Kyle Samani, Forward’s chairman, astutely described the ATM offering as “a flexible and efficient mechanism” to raise and deploy capital for the company’s Solana strategy and bolster its balance sheet.  Advertisement &nbsp Though the maximum amount is listed as $4 billion, the firm indicated that sales may or may not occur depending on existing market conditions. “The ATM Program enhances our ability to continue scaling that position, strengthen our balance sheet, and pursue growth initiatives in alignment with our long-term vision,” Samani said. Forward Industries kicked off its Solana treasury strategy on Sept. 8. The Wednesday S-3 form follows Forward’s $1.65 billion private investment in public equity that closed last week, led by crypto heavyweights like Galaxy Digital, Jump Crypto, and Multicoin Capital. The company started deploying that capital this week, announcing it snatched up 6.8 million SOL for approximately $1.58 billion at an average price of $232…
