📊 24H High/Low: $1.94 / $1.61 | Market Cap: $225 million
💡 The rising expectation of Fed rate cuts and policy tilt towards Trump’s policies have driven an increase in market risk appetite. Meme tokens, as an important driver for new users entering the space, have attracted funding amid ecosystem expansion. Multiple ecosystem upgrade announcements from the Solana Breakpoint conference have also increased interest in related assets.

📊 24H High/Low: $1.35 / $1.24 | Market Cap: $435 million

📊 Market Summary
The current market is in a period of policy favorable releases. The probability of continued Fed rate cuts next year is increasing. The Trump administration’s open attitude towards the crypto industry, progress in US crypto legislation negotiations (despite delays), ecosystem updates driven by the Solana Breakpoint conference, ongoing innovations in L2 scaling solutions, and upgrades to DeFi lending protocols collectively create upward momentum. Although Meme tokens have declined to below 4% of the altcoin market share, they remain a key channel for new users entering the space, maintaining their market position. Investors should pay attention to the progress of Fed policies, the final implementation of crypto regulatory frameworks, and the continuous upgrades of main public chains like Solana and Ethereum.
