Solana meme token BATON briefly tops $20 million market cap, sets record high

BATON, a meme token in the Solana ecosystem, briefly pushed its market capitalization above $20 million on Oct. 12, according to GMGN market data, marking a new all-time high. The token was later quoted at $18.22 million in market cap, with a 24-hour gain of 41.11%. The name BATON comes from Baton Corporation, the former identity of Pump.fun.
