A 12-hour-old new memecoin on Solana is trending on X after the cryptocurrency community took notice of the story behind Heart Sparkle Mermaid (HSM)

A new memecoin on Solana is trending on X after the cryptocurrency community took notice of the story behind Heart Sparkle Mermaid (HSM), a memecoin that started with a young girl's request to her father.

Launched Tuesday night, the token already has nearly 15,000 holders and a $144 million trading volume as of early Wednesday. HSM is so far valued at around $20 million.

According to the memecoin's creator, his daughter asked "if she could make a crypto coin." The dad then asked his daughter to create a drawing of her memecoin vision and she came up with "Heart Sparkle Mermaid."

My daughter asked me if she could make a crypto coin so I asked her to draw me a picture and this is what she came up with. Heart Sparkle Mermaid! I am so appreciative of everyone who has bought and supported this. Gv8mfuosgCKCj9tPs9VWS1GzETemr69Lnr2jwjbWpump

Since launching Tuesday night, the token has gained increasing attention around the crypto space, even from some prominent figures in the space, including DFreshmaker, who said he was "extremely bullish" for the token's future.

Well-followed crypto trader DLN tagged crypto exchange giant Binance, asking the exchange to list the token as a birthday gift for the developer's daughter.

YouTuber Khalil Underwood is among the crypto users who apparently liked the story of how HSM came about.

EthanDG, another well-followed crypto trader, said he is "giga bullish" for HSM and is impressed with the token's current movement.

Crypto platform AscendEX has expressed interest in listing HSM. It remains to be seen whether the discussions will push through.

For many crypto users who are betting on the memecoin, HSM is "wholesome," something that's not very common in the world of memes and digital coins.
