After a shaky start to 2025—highlighted by Ethereum (ETH) crashing 45% in Q1—the crypto market has begun to show signs of life. ETH has rallied nearly 31% from its April 9 low, igniting optimism across the board.
Among the recovering memecoins , Solana-based Popcat (POPCAT) — which had also endured a harsh correction — has managed to pull off a solid rebound. The coin surged by 200% over the past 30 days, trimming its yearly losses to 43%. Now, with today’s 8% gain, the potential next move could trigger another breakout rally.

Approaches Falling Wedge Resistance
POPCAT’s 4-hour chart reveals a classic falling wedge formation — a bullish pattern that often leads to sharp upward moves. This wedge began forming after POPCAT faced rejection at the April 15 high of $0.4498. What followed was a 23% dip, bringing the price down to a local low of $0.3392 on April 30. But buyers didn’t stay quiet — bulls stepped in to defend this support, sparking a strong recovery.

As of writing, POPCAT trades at $0.4141, pressing right up against the wedge’s upper boundary. A clean breakout from this zone, ideally followed by a successful retest, could be the confirmation traders are looking for.
The current setup looks strikingly similar to POPCAT’s late-April breakout, where a similar wedge pattern led to a 65% rally. If history repeats — and price action follows the technical script — the next target lies in the $0.62–$0.63 range. This would mark a 51% surge from current levels.
What’s Ahead
Momentum is building — and all eyes are on the breakout zone. A decisive move above the wedge could reignite bullish sentiment in memecoins, especially with market sentiment improving across the board. However, failure to break out could lead to a short-term pullback toward the $0.38–$0.39 support band.
