GOUT and Hasbulla’s Cat surge 170%, Bitcoin retraces to $97k

Even though Bitcoin dipped below $97,000, GOUT and Hasbulla’s Cat token have showcased a three-digit price surge in the last 24 hours.
Interestingly, the price pump comes amidst the slight pullback of Bitcoin’s (BTC) price. See below.

Meanwhile, Gout (GOUT) stood first on the list with its 170% price pump, according to CoinGecko’s top gainers list.
Hasbulla’s Cat token (BARSIK) and First Convicted RACCON (FRED) have also exhibited price pumps in the 100 to 170% range.
CoinGecko data shows that GOUT’s market cap crossed $55 million. The price of the meme coin has surged from a 24-hour low of $0.0001218 to its current price of $0.0003295.

One of the possible reasons for the surge is the announcement of a new NFT collection.
BARSIK jumps over 100%
The price of BARSIK has also seen a notable jump of over 100% from its 24-hour low of $0.03958. The meme coin has pumped to its current price of $0.08711.
The key reason for the price pump was after CoinMarketCap’s hints that it could list the meme coin soon on their platform.

CMC tweeted a GIF of Hasbulla, which triggered the crypto community on X to speculate on the listing.
FRED has also seen its price go up from its 24-hour low of $0.06208 to as high as $0.1707. The price of FRED stood at $0.1297 at press time.
The exact reason for its surge is unclear. However, the meme coin has been trending on X.
Rumors have also been circulating that Binance wallet holds a significant amount of FRED.
Nevertheless, the coin is still down by over 56% from its all-time high of $0.3032 from Nov. 14, 2024.
