Solana-based “sol” (CAT) meme coin crashed heavily on Monday following a recent analysis by crypto detective ZachXBT connecting its team to the X account hack of crypto analyst GCRClassic.
 

PEPE, a frog-themed meme coin, hit a new all-time high early on Monday, rallying to a peak of $0.00001725. The asset rallied 81% in the past seven days on Binance. 

Meme coins have consistently extended gains in the ongoing cycle, alongside a rally in Bitcoin, Ethereum and other cryptocurrencies in the top 20 assets by market capitalization. Dogecoin (DOGE), Shiba Inu (SHIB), Pepe (PEPE) and Solana-based meme coins have rallied on several occasions since the approval of Spot Bitcoin Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) early in 2024.
