Toshi (TOSHI) memecoin price surged more than 40%, trading above $0.000855 at the time of writing on Wednesday.

Why is TOSHI rallying today?
Toshi, a meme coin named after Coinbase co-founder Brian Armstrong’s cat, rallied by more than 40% on Wednesday. The main reason for this price surge was that Upbit, a crypto exchange, announced it would list TOSHI with trading pairs against KRW and USDT.
This news triggered a massive surge in TOSHI price as a centralized exchange listing typically signals increased liquidity, accessibility, and investor confidence in the token.
CoinGecko data show that Toshi’s market capitalization reached $361.04 million on Wednesday, surpassing other popular meme coins, such as Mog Coin (MOG) and Rekt (REKT), while aiming to overtake 1inch (INCH) as it secures the 238th spot in the overall crypto market capitalization table.
