A Solana-based cryptocurrency recently reached a record high, but might be in for a correction soon.
A popular meme token, Popcat (POPCAT), might be set for a price correction after reaching new record highs recently, according to crypto analytics firm Santiment.

Santiment highlights that Popcat surged dramatically from approximately $0.469 on July 11 to a peak of $0.987 on Saturday, marking a gain of over 110%.
This surge has attracted significant attention from mainstream traders.
The firm notes that such rapid spikes often precede corrections, suggesting that this may be an opportunity for better entry points.
As of now, Popcat is trading around $0.853, reflecting a nearly 7% drop in the past 24 hours. Despite this, the token has still seen a 14% increase over the past week.
This week started off on a very bullish note with the whwole market being in the green and a lot of altcoins reaching new all-time highs (ATH).
Memecoins have been booming this year, especially those that are based on the Solana blockchain.
Ethereum’s recent price surge to around $3,200 has sparked significant activity among major investors, including Tron founder Justin Sun, who recently sold a portion of his holdings.
Crypto analytics firm Santiment suggests that Cardano (ADA) may soon see a surge in interest from retail investors, driven by “fear of missing out” (FOMO).
