PANews reported on December 17th, citing Bloomberg, that the UK will investigate the role of cryptocurrencies as part of a broader review of the country's political financing laws, triggered by a bribery case involving a Reform Party politician. On Tuesday, Communities Secretary Steve Reed told the House of Commons that the review will examine foreign funding interference in British politics, with a report due by the end of March. The findings will be incorporated into election and democracy-related legislation the government plans to push forward next year.

Previously, there were concerns within the UK that its democratic system was vulnerable to foreign donations and bribes, and this announcement of the review was based on these concerns. Last month, Nathan Gill, former leader of the Reform Party in Wales, pleaded guilty to accepting bribes while serving as a Member of the European Parliament in exchange for making statements favorable to Russia, and was sentenced to 10 and a half years in prison.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) vs Little Pepe (LILPEPE): Which Meme Coin Will Take the Crown from Dogecoin (DOGE)?

The post Shiba Inu (SHIB) vs Little Pepe (LILPEPE): Which Meme Coin Will Take the Crown from Dogecoin (DOGE)? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Dogecoin has been the face of meme coins for a long time. From Elon Musk tweets to a robust community, DOGE has managed to stay alive. But in 2025, things appear slightly different. Will Shiba Inu keep pursuing Dogecoin, or will new contender Little Pepe pass them both by? Dogecoin (DOGE): Still the Benchmark Dogecoin is trading just above $0.2452, up 10.63% over the past week. That steady climb shows why DOGE still matters: it has the liquidity, the listings, and the recognition that few meme tokens can match. Analysts see its price grinding higher into year-end, supported by altcoin momentum and ETF launches in the U.S. But here’s the thing: DOGE is no longer a scrappy underdog. With a market cap already in the tens of billions, turning $100 into $10,000 here is nearly impossible. It’s the Bitcoin of meme coins: reliable, liquid, and still iconic, but its days of 1,000× gains are behind it. Shiba Inu (SHIB): Big Name, Slowing Engine Shiba Inu sits at $0.00001349 with a market cap of $7.6 billion. It’s clawed back momentum with a 3.98% monthly surge, and analysts project a further 9.26% weekly gain to $0.00001418. Token burns and the expansion of Shibarium, its Layer-2 solution, keep the ecosystem alive. That said, SHIB’s size is also its weakness. Even with whales accumulating another 62 billion tokens, growth projections hover in the 400%–500% range, which is impressive but pales in comparison to what early buyers saw in 2021. SHIB is in the odd position of being too big to vanish, but too large to repeat its breakout magic. Little Pepe (LILPEPE): The New Challenger SHIB grew on pure hype, but LILPEPE comes with real infrastructure. The project is building an Ethereum-compatible Layer-2 network designed for meme tokens, with near-zero fees, sniper-bot resistance, and…
