Memecoins lifted Sunday as the broader cryptocurrency market staged a spirited recovery from Friday's lows.

What happened: Cat-themed cryptocurrency, Popcat, led the rally, with gains upwards of 6.5% in the last 24 hours. The Solana (CRYPTO: SOL)-based coin registered a 51% spike in trading volumes to $57 million.

Brett (Based) (BRETT)+4.89%$0.07281
Pepe (CRYPTO: PEPE)+3.14%$0.00007033

Brett, the memecoin based on Layer-2 network Base, notched up gains close to 5% in the 24 hours. Inspired by the character Brett from Matt Furie’s Boys’ Club comic series, the token erased losses from Friday with the latest uptick.

Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH)-based Pepe also popped over 3%, with a 41% jump in trades in the last 24 hours. In fact, the frog-themed token was the most traded memecoin in the 24-hour period, eclipsing the trading volume for Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE) and Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: SHIB).

The total memecoin market capitalization rose from $35.63 billion to $36.50, indicating a rise of 2.4%.

Why It Matters: The rally came amid a wider market uptick, with Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) and Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) advancing to the north.

The spike came after Bitcoin plummeted below $53,000 on Friday due to investors’ concerns about a weakening labor market.

The global market cap stood at $1.95 trillion, following a jump of 1.26% in the last 24 hours.

Price Action: At the time of writing, Bitcoin was exchanging hands at $55,116.82, up 1.43% in the last 24 hours, according to data from Benzinga Pro
