Solana Meme Coins Surge in Popularity

Solana meme coins such as Popcat and Cat in a Dogs World have continued their upward trend, driving their total market cap to an impressive $11.38 billion.

Popcat’s Astonishing Growth

Popcat was trading at $1.3220 on Monday, Oct. 21, marking an extraordinary increase of 30,000% from its lowest level this year. This surge has elevated its market cap to $1.3 billion, positioning it as the third-largest Solana meme coin, following Dogwifhat and Bonk.

Other smaller meme coins such as Fwog, Goatseus Maximus, Michi, and Maneki have also experienced notable gains in recent days.

Solana DEX Volume Overtakes Ethereum

This impressive performance has led to a substantial increase in trading volumes on Solana’s decentralized exchanges (DEX). Recent data indicates that Solana DEX volume rose by 41% over the last week to $12.61 billion, surpassing Ethereum DEXes, which handled $8.7 billion.

Raydium remains the leading Solana DEX, managing $7.6 billion in token volume. It is closely followed by Orca, Lifinity, and Phoenix.

Monthly Volume Comparison: Solana vs. Ethereum

In October, Solana also surpassed Ethereum in monthly trading volume, reaching $30.4 billion compared to Ethereum’s $26.5 billion. This trend was mirrored in the perpetual futures market, where Solana handled $4 billion in perpetuals over the last seven days, while Ethereum managed $2.83 billion. For the month, Solana processed $12 billion in perpetual futures, compared to Ethereum’s $7.9 billion.

The popularity of Solana meme coins like MEW and Popcat has been a significant driving factor behind these gains.
