This large transaction, reported by Lookonchain, fueled the dramatic increase in Popcat’s value, which rose from $0.43 to a high of $0.60.
In addition to Popcat’s impressive gains, the SUN token on the TRON platform also experienced significant growth. The SUN token surged by 60% in 24 hours after Binance Futures listed the SUNUSDT perpetual contract with up to 75x leverage.Â
This surge followed the success of SunPump, a new meme coin launch platform that outperformed Solana’s Pump.fun in daily revenue and drove TRON’s revenue to an all-time high.
Binance’s recent listings have sparked notable price increases in several tokens, including Brett, Voxel, and Synapse, demonstrating the impact of such announcements on the crypto market.
