- The Solana memecoin sector surges 11.6% on Monday, attracting $962 million in inflows.

- Fartcoin, a16z and TRUMP emerged as the most-searched tokens, fueling double-digit gains.
Solana memecoins recorded 11.6% gains on Monday as the sector’s valuation increased by nearly $1 billion, driven by Donald Trump-related catalysts that fueled a global market rally. Market reports show that Fartcoin, a16z, and TRUMP memecoins were among the three most in-demand assets.
Solana memecoin sector outperforms Bitcoin and top altcoins
Solana memecoins took center stage on Monday, outperforming Bitcoin and the broader altcoin market.
While BTC surged 4% before facing resistance at $89K, Solana’s memecoin sector saw gains more than twice that figure.

According to Coingecko data, the sector’s valuation rose by 11.6%, pushing the total market cap of Solana-based memecoins past $8.3 billion—an increase of $960 million in a single day.
Why are Solana memecoins rallying today?
Trump-related headlines helped Solana’s memecoin market shake off bearish catalysts that had weighed on the sector since early March. On Monday, Trump reaffirmed his support for the TRUMP token, launched on the Solana network on Inauguration Day.
In a Truth Social post, Trump declared TRUMP token is "the greatest of them all."

Notably, following the controversy surrounding a rug pull involving Argentine President Javier Milei and the Libra memecoin, many traders feared Trump would distance himself from his own memecoin.
This led to a major sell-off, causing TRUMP and MELANIA tokens to plunge 80% from their all-time highs.
However, Trump’s Monday post reignited investor confidence in the broader Solana memecoin sector.
Market data shows that Fartcoin, a16z, and TRUMP were the most-searched tokens on Coingecko, sparking double-digit gains for each.
