How these figures are worked out

Sources, inflation measures and what is left out
  • Month-end closes from Kraken, Sep 2024 to Oct 2026. Oct 2026 is still in progress, so its figure is the latest close rather than a month-end. Our history for Popcat starts in Sep 2024, so longer windows are left out.
  • Real figures divide by US CPI (BLS, via FRED) or UK CPI (ONS, joined to the ONS long-run RPI before Jan 1988) and are stated in Oct 2026 money. The M2 lens divides by the US M2 money supply (Federal Reserve, via FRED). Pounds convert at each month's GBP/USD rate.
  • US CPI is published with a lag: Oct 2026 uses the Aug 2026 figure.
  • UK CPI is published with a lag: Oct 2026 uses the Aug 2026 figure.
  • US M2 is published with a lag: Oct 2026 uses the Aug 2026 figure.
  • A return of 12 months or more also shows its yearly rate. Gaps in a source are left as gaps and never filled in.

Why it sits in this zone

Popcat sits in the Discount zone with a Bargain Score of 65, meeting at least three of the model's buy-side conditions (Price 98% below ATH, greed high and structural collapse risk). Since its $2.05 peak in November 2024, Popcat has lost 97.8% of its value, a 44-fold gap back to the high that few coins have closed in past cycles.

What drives the score

The largest weighted part of the score is price distress, at 0.88 out of 1, while market sentiment contributes least at 0.29. The model classes Popcat as a failed cycle: more than 97% below its high, with a small market value and very little community activity. That caps its modelled chance of a new high, which is rated Low. Meme coins have no income or usage to anchor them, so its score here mostly reflects the size of its fall and the mood of the market.

Where the cycle targets come from

The cycle targets of $2.15, $2.36 and $2.67 are anchored to the previous all-time high, because a reduced repeat of Popcat's past range would not reach it, so the low scenario sits just above the old high, a 4,564% move from today's price.

FAQ

Popcat: questions people ask

What was Popcat's all-time high in today's money?

Popcat's highest recorded price was $2.050 on 17 November 2024, from CoinGecko's record of intraday trades. Restated with US CPI to Oct 2026, that is $2.177 in today's dollars. In pounds it was £1.614 at the time, or £1.716 after UK inflation.

On month-end closes, which is what our tables use, the peak was $1.703 in Oct 2024, worth $1.807 today. The latest price is 97.3% below the real high.

Has Popcat beaten inflation since Sep 2024?

Our monthly history for Popcat starts in September 2024. Since then it is down 95.2% in dollars and down 95.4% after US inflation, so it has not kept up with inflation over that stretch. Measured in pounds after UK CPI the figure is down 95.4%. Against the US M2 money supply it is down 95.6%.

How long did Popcat take to recover from past crashes?

After the Oct 2024 peak of $1.703 it fell 97.6% by Jul 2026, and has not closed above that high since. In real terms it has not recovered.

These use month-end closes, so intraday highs and lows were more extreme.

How far is Popcat below its all-time high?

Popcat is 97.8% below its all-time high of $2.05, which it set on 17 November 2024, and its all-time low is $0.00379728, from January 2024. Getting back to the high from today's price of $0.0462 would take a rise of about 4,342%. These figures come from CoinGecko and refresh every five minutes.

What is Popcat's Bargain Score?

The Bargain Score is 65 out of 100 (Meaningful discount). It combines the discount from the previous high, market sentiment, momentum and the coin's track record across past cycles. On our zone scale that places Popcat in the Discount zone: Price 98% below ATH · greed high · structural collapse risk. This describes current conditions; it is not a recommendation.

What do the Popcat cycle scenarios assume?

Low cycle target $2.153 (Previous ATH + 5% (the model’s cycle multiple lands below the previous high).). Base cycle target $2.357 (Previous ATH + 15%: a return to the previous high (the model’s cycle multiple lands below it).). High cycle target $2.665 (Previous ATH + 30% (the model’s cycle multiple lands below the previous high).). Each is the price the coin would reach if a smaller version of its past cycle repeated, not a loss case. They come from a model of past cycles and can be badly wrong.

How fearful is the crypto market right now?

The Crypto Fear & Greed Index reads 62 (Greed). Low readings mean fear, high readings mean greed. The Bargain Score uses it as one input, because past cycle lows tended to arrive during extreme fear.

What zone is Popcat in today?

With a Bargain Score of 65, Popcat is in the Discount zone: enough buy-side conditions line up, among them Price 98% below ATH, greed high and structural collapse risk, but not all of the strict ones the Deep discount zone needs. Rather than a recommendation, the label is a reading of where Popcat's price and the wider market sit against the model's rules at this moment, and because the Fear & Greed value and the daily RSI both update at midnight UTC, just after midnight is when it is most likely to change. The 4-dot meter beside it shows where that zone sits on the five-step scale, from one dot for Expensive to five for Deep discount.

How long have Popcat's past recoveries taken?

Popcat has had one earlier fall of 50% or more in our price history: after its $1.97 peak in November 2024 it fell 98% and has not closed above that level since. Those are the only data points we have for this coin, which is too few to say anything reliable about the next recovery, since market conditions, supply and competition are different each cycle and some coins never regain a previous high.

What are the cycle targets for Popcat?

The model starts from Popcat's full range, its all-time high of $2.05 divided by its all-time low of $0.00379728, which is roughly 540-fold. It shrinks that multiple with a decay factor, on the assumption that each cycle is smaller than the last, and applies it from the low. For Popcat that reduced repeat would not reach the old high, so the targets are anchored just above it instead, at $2.15, $2.36 and $2.67, which puts the low scenario 4,564% above today's price. They describe what a reduced repeat of the past would look like and say nothing about whether that will happen.
