<p>The general surge in all these meme coins follows a rise in the largest crypto asset by market cap, Bitcoin, which had risen by 3% over the past day to $56,713 on Saturday. Its 24-hour lows and highs were recorded as $54,839 and $56,856, respectively.</p> 
<p>Bitcoin’s dominance is currently 53.64%, a decrease of 0.31% over the day, reflecting a notable jump in altcoin market activity. Meanwhile, the global crypto market cap has risen by 3.2%, bringing its total market cap to $2.08 trillion.</p> 
<p>The big jump in the meme coin market is often linked to Bitcoin’s performance due to its influence on the broader cryptocurrency market.</p> 
<p>When Bitcoin performs well, it often leads to increased investor confidence and interest in alternative coins (altcoins), including meme coins. This phenomenon can create a positive feedback loop, where rising prices attract more investors, further driving up prices.</p>
