Meme coin CATE's market cap rebounds to break through $50 million, surging over 99% in 24 hours.

According to GMGN market data, the Solana-based meme coin CATE has rebounded to a market cap exceeding $50 million, currently trading at $51.54 million, with a 24-hour increase of over 99% and a 24-hour trading volume of $12.8 million. Earlier on July 26, Atsuko Sato, owner of Kabosu—the Shiba Inu that inspired the Doge meme—posted a video of a kitten. The community quickly launched the token on Pump.fun, positioning it as "the successor to Doge / the cat version of Doge" to carry on the meme culture of "dogs came first, now it's the cats' turn". Subsequently, Atsuko Sato clarified in a post that the CATE tokens circulating in the recent market have no connection with her at all. She stated that she only shared a moment on Instagram before, but this content was later used without authorization by others, who took advantage of it to issue fake tokens and create the illusion of a link with her. She expressed regret over this, noting that some accounts involved in spreading related information even include users with considerable influence on the X platform. BlockBeats reminds users that most meme coins have no practical use cases and feature highly volatile prices, so investment requires caution.
