POPCAT closed the week to Sep 7, 2026 near $0.0536, up 3.6% on the week after a 44% late-August rally. Dated data, safety check and what changed since.

· By ZIPMEX · 11 min read

On September 7, 2026, Popcat (POPCAT) traded at about $0.0536 on CoinGecko's daily data. That was up 3.6% on the week and 25% on the month. It was also still about 97% below its all-time high of $2.05, set on November 17, 2024. Most of that monthly gain came from a short rally between August 19 and August 27. During the week to September 7 the price went sideways a little below that peak. Since then the gain has faded: on October 25, 2026 POPCAT was near $0.0421, close to where the August rally started.

Where the month's gain came from

The late-August rally

POPCAT spent mid-August between about $0.041 and $0.044. From $0.04113 on August 19 it climbed on most days to $0.05925 on August 27, a gain of about 44% in eight days. No official announcement or project news explaining the move could be found.

The week to September 7

After the peak, the price slipped back to $0.0517 by August 31. Through the first week of September it moved between $0.0512 and $0.0536. By September 7 it was about 10% below the August 27 high but still well above where the rally began.

These are once-a-day readings from a single aggregator, so they miss wider intraday swings, and they do not explain why the price moved or show where it goes next.

Token safety check

These on-chain checks come from GeckoTerminal's token data for the Solana mint 7GCihgDB8fe6KNjn2MYtkzZcRjQy3t9GHdC8uHYmW2hr. That is the contract address the project lists on popcatsolana.xyz. The figures were read on October 25, 2026, not on September 7.

  • Mint authority: none. Nobody can create new POPCAT, so the supply of about 980 million is fixed.
  • Freeze authority: none. No one can freeze tokens held in a holder's wallet.
  • Concentration: the 10 largest wallets hold 41.8% of supply, and the next 10 hold 12.9%. Some of the largest wallets may belong to exchanges or liquidity pools, not individuals, so this measures custody rather than ownership.
  • Holders: 138,146 wallets.
  • On-chain liquidity: about $4.9M across the token's three main pools, with $210K of on-chain volume in the previous 24 hours.

If no one can mint or freeze the token, two common memecoin risks are ruled out. Price risk, thin liquidity and concentrated holdings remain.

To check this yourself, paste the mint address into any Solana block explorer. Check that the mint and freeze authority fields are empty, and check that the address matches the one on the project's own site. Tokens with a similar name and a different address are not POPCAT.

What changed after September 7

By the morning of October 25, 2026 (10:17 UTC), CoinGecko showed POPCAT at $0.04212 with a market cap of $41.3M. That is about 21% below the September 7 level and roughly 98% below the all-time high. The August rally has been almost completely reversed. On-chain trading was also thin, at about $210K over 24 hours.

What POPCAT is

POPCAT is a meme token on Solana. It is named after the Pop Cat videos, which edit an image of a cat called Oatmeal so its mouth opens into an "O". The token has no protocol function or cash flow, so its price depends on attention and liquidity alone.

Limitations: price data comes from a single aggregator (CoinGecko) and on-chain data from its sister service GeckoTerminal, as once-daily readings with no independent second source.
