The cryptocurrency market witnessed a sudden turnaround over the weekend. Bitcoin (BTC) briefly surpassed the $64,000 mark but has since fallen to the mid-$63,000 level. The Solana-based meme coin Popcat (POPCAT) is one of the best-performing cryptocurrencies among the top 102 projects.
The asset has rallied by 4.3% in the last 24 hours, 93.4% in the weekly charts, and more than 47% in the 14-day charts. POPCAT continues to glow red in the monthly charts, falling 17.4% in the previous 30 days.

Factors Driving the Rally and Future Predictions
The current market resurgence, including the Solana-based meme coin, could be due to the Federal Reserve’s dovish economic policy stance. Fed chair Jerome Powell announced that the central bank will start cutting interest rates by September 2024.
An interest rate cut will likely boost investor confidence in pouring money into risky assets like cryptocurrencies.
