CoinGecko reports trending crypto tokens outpace Bitcoin in searches

According to CoinGecko data as of September 12, 2026, global cryptocurrency search trends are being dominated by highly volatile smaller tokens rather than Bitcoin. The top trending assets include STONK, LAPTOP, and NEAR Protocol.

Despite a 16.2% decline in the past 24 hours, the LAPTOP token remains the second most-searched cryptocurrency. This high search interest is attributed to its connection to political symbols and significant price volatility. Other trending assets like STONK and NEAR Protocol also saw declines of approximately 8.0% and 3.6%, respectively.

Pons, the native token of the Robinhood Chain launchpad, has also been a major focus. While it fell roughly 2.0% in 24 hours and 11.4% over seven days, it has maintained levels above its initial launch hype following a period of market pullback.
