Meanwhile, the broader crypto market cap has reached $3.70 trillion, with a 24-hour trading volume of $130.26 billion—suggesting strong liquidity and increased activity in the sector. However, market sentiment remains cautious.
The Fear and Greed Index sits at 54 (neutral), indicating a balanced market with neither excessive optimism nor fear driving prices. Investors seem to be waiting for a clearer trend before making larger commitments.
AI Meme Coins Lead the Market Rebound
Leading the AI meme coin surge is ai16z, which has climbed nearly 23% to reach $0.644. Other top gainers include Fartcoin, rising 4.5% to $1.04, and aixbt by Virtuals, now trading at $0.4665.
Meanwhile, lesser-known tokens such as YieldMachine by Virtuals (+65.4%) and Zen AI (+23%) are also seeing strong action, signaling that traders are broadening their portfolios beyond mainstream AI meme tokens.

Why does this matter for crypto? Lower interest rates generally push investors toward riskier assets, as traditional safe-havens like bonds and savings accounts become less attractive. AI meme coins, which thrive on speculation and momentum, are among the biggest beneficiaries of this shift.
