15 Best Performing Shitcoins in 2023

Page 1 of 6

In this article, we will take a look at the 15 Best Performing Shitcoins in 2023. 

From the name, shitcoin, it is perceptible that we are referring to below-par cryptocurrencies. Shitcoins are highly volatile altcoins trading on speculation and often pump and dump schemes. According to Coinmarketcap.com“A shitcoin is a cryptocurrency with zero or close to zero value and no utility”. Shitcoin is a term used by crypto netizens to label altcoins that try to benefit from market sentiment or other cryptocurrencies to gain value without offering value on their own. Redditors also compare shitcoins with penny stocks. Shitcoins are just like penny stocks as they are also considered speculative, high-risk investments due to lower liquidity and higher volatility. 

After the inception of Bitcoin (BTC), altcoins became the center of attention for investors and cryptocurrency users. Altcoins were introduced as an alternative to Bitcoin. On October 7, 2011, Litecoin (LTC) emerged as the first altcoin in an attempt to make improvements to the original Bitcoin technology. Litecoin is fundamentally based on Bitcoin, but it has some major upgrades such as a higher speed for constructing a block. Ethereum (ETH) was the major development in the world of altcoins, which really accelerated the gear of cryptocurrency projects. Today, there are almost 9,094 digital coins listed on Coinmarketcap.com. Among them, a large number of digital coins are based on memes and jokes.

Altcoins such as Dogecoin (DOGE), Shiba Inu (SHIB), Terra Classic (LUNA), and Dogelon Mars (ELON) have gained huge attention in the market. Dogecoin (DOGE) entered the market as a meme coin and it gained massive attention following the tweets of Elon Musk on DOGE. Musk admires Dogecoin because of the humor around it and the coin’s affiliation with a dog. However, it is important to note that he is not advising people to invest in it. On May 23, The Wall Street Journal reported that Musk isn’t suggesting investing in Dogecoin (DOGE). During The Wall Street Journal’s CEO Council Summit in London, Musk said: “I’m not advising anyone to buy crypto or bet the farm on dogecoin”.

As 2023 marks a decent year for the cryptocurrency market, some of the new shitcoin projects are having a great time. For instance, Pepe (PEPE), a deflationary meme coin, was launched earlier this year and it has made remarkable returns so far. Pepe (PEPE) has gained a whopping 980% in 2023 since its launch on April 17. While blue-chip digital assets may be the most appealing crypto projects in the market, such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), a large community of investors do not want to miss out on opportunities to invest in low-priced cryptocurrencies, which have higher upside potential. Usually, shitcoins have a huge upside potential due to their low prices and massive risks. Following the hype, new shitcoins are gaining popularity including Wall Street Memes (WSM), Chimpzee (CHMPZ), and eTukTuk (TUK).

Long-term holders are not much into shitcoins as the risk of losing value in shitcoin is higher. However, shitcoins are favorable for traders who want to bet on altcoins and take advantage as soon as they sense the upside for shitcoins. Many argue that shitcoins are just Ponzi schemes and are fraudulent crypto projects with anonymous development teams. Shitcoins can give you returns if you play safe. On April 20, Binance posted an article regarding an anonymous trader who made millions in profit by trading shitcoins. The anonymous individual traded over 3,000 shitcoins and made profits of over $2 million. One of the trader’s most profitable trades included buying Pepe (PEPE) with 0.013 ETH and making a 32,000X profit. The key takeaways from his trades were to invest in shitcoins considering their fundamentals and trends, setting stop loss limit, and taking profits quickly. Apart from these tactics, investing in shitcoins can be pretty risky and you are at risk of losing your investments in the blink of an eye, considering the sudden dump in shitcoins. 

The cryptocurrency market as a whole is a highly volatile market when compared to the stock market and other financial markets. The crypto industry is still facing regulatory problems around the world, but a lot of things have also developed, creating a positive impact going forward. As we mentioned earlier, the global cryptocurrency market stood at around $2 trillion in 2022 and it is projected to reach $4 trillion by 2028, according to IMARC Group. That marks a compound annual growth rate of 11.7% between 2023 and 2028 for the global cryptocurrency market. Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) dominate the cryptocurrency market, both having a joint market share of 67.3%, as of September 22. While the remaining 32.7% market share is occupied by other altcoins and shitcoins. Let’s take a look at some of the best performing shitcoins in 2023 now.

Our Methodology

Crypto users have their own way of perceiving an altcoin as a shitcoin. According to different definitions, shitcoin is a cryptocurrency with not much value or closer to zero value, a highly volatile asset, and no utility. 

We considered altcoins with value of less than one dollar and that are relatively new projects. We shortlisted the top 15 altcoins that had the highest year-to-date returns in 2023 on Coinmarketcap.com, as of 3:00 a.m. ET on September 22. We have ranked the altcoins in ascending order of their year-to-date returns as of September 22.

Note: We have excluded altcoins such as XRP (XRP) and TRON (TRX) that trade below zero dollars, as they have been in the market for a long time now and are backed by notable development teams.

Here is the list of 15 best performing shitcoins in 2023.

The $250 Trillion AI Hype is Real. A few years from now, you’ll probably wish you’d bought this stock.

When Jeff Bezos said that one breakthrough technology would shape Amazon’s destiny, even Wall Street’s biggest analysts were caught off guard.

Fast forward a year and Amazon’s new CEO Andy Jassy described generative AI as a “once-in-a-lifetime” technology that is already being used across Amazon to reinvent customer experiences.

At the 8th Future Investment Initiative conference, Elon Musk predicted that by 2040 there would be at least 10 billion humanoid robots, with each priced between $20,000 and $25,000.

Do the math. According to Musk, this technology could be worth $250 trillion by 2040.

Put another way, that’s roughly equal to:

  • 175 Teslas
  • 107 Amazons
  • 140 Metas
  • 84 Googles
  • 65 Microsofts
  • And 55 Nvidias

And here’s the wild part — this $250 trillion wave isn’t tied to one company, but to an entire ecosystem of AI innovators set to reshape the global economy.

It’s a leap so massive, it could reshape how businesses, governments, and consumers operate worldwide.

Even if that $250 trillion figure sounds ambitious, major firms like PwC and McKinsey still see AI unlocking multi-trillion-dollar potential.

How could anything be worth that much?

The answer lies in a breakthrough so powerful it’s redefining how humanity works, learns, and creates.

And this breakthrough has already set off a frenzy among hedge funds and Wall Street’s top investors.

What most investors don’t realize is that one under-owned company holds the key to this $250 trillion revolution.

In fact, Verge argues this company’s supercheap AI technology should concern rivals.

Before I reveal the details, let’s talk about how some of the richest people on the planet are positioning themselves.

  • Bill Gates sees artificial intelligence as the “biggest technological advance in my lifetime,” more transformative than the internet or personal computer, capable of improving healthcare, education, and addressing climate change.
  • Larry Ellison — through Oracle, is spending billions on Nvidia chips and partnering with Cohere to embed generative AI across Oracle’s cloud and apps.
  • Warren Buffett — not known for tech hype — says this breakthrough could have a ‘hugely beneficial social impact.

When billionaires from Silicon Valley to Wall Street line up behind the same idea — you know it’s worth paying attention to.

Even as we admire what Tesla, Nvidia, Alphabet, and Microsoft have built, we believe an even greater opportunity lies elsewhere…

But the real story isn’t Nvidia — it’s a much smaller company quietly improving the critical technology that makes this entire revolution possible.

And judging by what I’m hearing from both Silicon Valley insiders and Wall Street veterans…

This prediction might not be bold at all:

A few years from now, you’ll wish you’d owned this stock.

AI, Tariffs, Nuclear Power: One Undervalued Stock Connects ALL the Dots (Before It Explodes!)

Artificial intelligence is the greatest investment opportunity of our lifetime. The time to invest in groundbreaking AI is now, and this stock is a steal!

AI is eating the world—and the machines behind it are ravenous.

Each ChatGPT query, each model update, each robotic breakthrough consumes massive amounts of energy. In fact, AI is already pushing global power grids to the brink.

Wall Street is pouring hundreds of billions into artificial intelligence—training smarter chatbots, automating industries, and building the digital future. But there’s one urgent question few are asking:

Where will all of that energy come from?

AI is the most electricity-hungry technology ever invented. Each data center powering large language models like ChatGPT consumes as much energy as a small city. And it’s about to get worse.

Even Sam Altman, the founder of OpenAI, issued a stark warning:

“The future of AI depends on an energy breakthrough.”

Elon Musk was even more blunt:

“AI will run out of electricity by next year.”

As the world chases faster, smarter machines, a hidden crisis is emerging behind the scenes. Power grids are strained. Electricity prices are rising. Utilities are scrambling to expand capacity.

And that’s where the real opportunity lies…

One little-known company—almost entirely overlooked by most AI investors—could be the ultimate backdoor play. It’s not a chipmaker. It’s not a cloud platform. But it might be the most important AI stock in the US owns critical energy infrastructure assets positioned to feed the coming AI energy spike.

As demand from AI data centers explodes, this company is gearing up to profit from the most valuable commodity in the digital age: electricity.

The “Toll Booth” Operator of the AI Energy Boom

  • It owns critical nuclear energy infrastructure assets, positioning it at the heart of America’s next-generation power strategy.
  • It’s one of the only global companies capable of executing large-scale, complex EPC (engineering, procurement, and construction) projects across oil, gas, renewable fuels, and industrial infrastructure.
  • It plays a pivotal role in U.S. LNG exportation—a sector about to explode under President Trump’s renewed “America First” energy doctrine.

Trump has made it clear: Europe and U.S. allies must buy American LNG.

And our company sits in the toll booth—collecting fees on every drop exported.

But that’s not all…

As Trump’s proposed tariffs push American manufacturers to bring their operations back home, this company will be first in line to rebuild, retrofit, and reengineer those facilities.

AI. Energy. Tariffs. Onshoring. This One Company Ties It All Together.

While the world is distracted by flashy AI tickers, a few smart investors are quietly scooping up shares of the one company powering it all from behind the scenes.

AI needs energy. Energy needs infrastructure.

And infrastructure needs a builder with experience, scale, and execution.

This company has its finger in every pie—and Wall Street is just starting to notice.

Wall Street is noticing this company also because it is quietly riding all of these tailwinds—without the sky-high valuation.

While most energy and utility firms are buried under mountains of debt and coughing up hefty interest payments just to appease bondholders…

This company is completely debt-free.

In fact, it’s sitting on a war chest of cash—equal to nearly one-third of its entire market cap.

It also owns a huge equity stake in another red-hot AI play, giving investors indirect exposure to multiple AI growth engines without paying a premium.

And here’s what the smart money has started whispering…

The Hedge Fund Secret That’s Starting to Leak Out

This stock is so off-the-radar, so absurdly undervalued, that some of the most secretive hedge fund managers in the world have begun pitching it at closed-door investment summits.

They’re sharing it quietly, away from the cameras, to rooms full of ultra-wealthy clients.

Why? Because excluding cash and investments, this company is trading at less than 7 times earnings.

And that’s for a business tied to:

  • The AI infrastructure supercycle
  • The onshoring boom driven by Trump-era tariffs
  • A surge in U.S. LNG exports
  • And a unique footprint in nuclear energy—the future of clean, reliable power

You simply won’t find another AI and energy stock this cheap… with this much upside.

This isn’t a hype stock. It’s not riding on hope.

It’s delivering real cash flows, owns critical infrastructure, and holds stakes in other major growth stories.

This is your chance to get in before the rockets take off!

Disruption is the New Name of the Game: Let’s face it, complacency breeds stagnation.

AI is the ultimate disruptor, and it’s shaking the foundations of traditional industries.

The companies that embrace AI will thrive, while the dinosaurs clinging to outdated methods will be left in the dust.

As an investor, you want to be on the side of the winners, and AI is the winning ticket.

The Talent Pool is Overflowing: The world’s brightest minds are flocking to AI.

From computer scientists to mathematicians, the next generation of innovators is pouring its energy into this field.

This influx of talent guarantees a constant stream of groundbreaking ideas and rapid advancements.

By investing in AI, you’re essentially backing the future.

The future is powered by artificial intelligence, and the time to invest is NOW.

Don’t be a spectator in this technological revolution.

Dive into the AI gold rush and watch your portfolio soar alongside the brightest minds of our generation.

This isn’t just about making money – it’s about being part of the future.
