According to GMGN market data, Base chain-based meme token Basecat broke through a $20 million market cap early this morning, hitting an all-time high. Its current market cap stands at $13.6 million, with a 24-hour trading volume of $27.7 million and a 24-hour price increase of over 18 times. Recently, the official account of Base App has been frequently posting cat-related content with a highly meme-oriented style. The community attributes this shift to the change in direction after Base App was taken over by personnel associated with Cobie, so users quickly deployed Basecat on the Base chain to capitalize on the "official cat narrative". It should be noted that this token is not issued by the official team and has no official endorsement; it is a community-launched token only. BlockBeats reminds users that meme coins usually have no practical use cases, experience significant price volatility, and require caution when investing.
