SOL meme coin CATE briefly tops $9.5 million market cap after viral cat video

GMGN data showed that CATE, a meme coin on Solana, briefly pushed its market capitalization above $9.5 million after surging more than 230x on the day, before falling back to $7.09 million. The token’s momentum was tied to a newly posted rescue kitten video from @kabosumama, the owner of DOGE. After the clip spread, community user @HimothyGoggins reposted it and speculated that the cat’s name was “Hiromi,” though that claim was not confirmed by Kabosu’s owner. Later, @thedevrrrrrrr suggested that the community should “run CATE like DOGE,” and the token was quickly launched on Pump.fun, drawing fresh attention. There is currently no evidence that the cat is actually named Hiromi, and there has been no official confirmation that its name is CATE. The name CATE instead traces back to an earlier “Cate” cat meme that was reused by the community in this latest episode. The token is not an official coin from Kabosu’s owner and is not based on the cat’s confirmed real name. Market participants also warned that meme coins can see sharp price swings and carry elevated risk.

Bitcoin has halved from $126K to $66K while the S&P 500 sits near record highs. But adjusting for M2 money supply tells a different story: BTC/M2 ratio flashes a head-and-shoulders pattern, and the S&P 500 on an inflation-adjusted basis barely reclaims its 2000 peak, suggesting nominal gains rest on thin ice.
