BRETT has now become the 71st largest cryptocurrency, with its market cap exceeding $1.38 trillion. Despite this rise, BRETT remains down 27.8% from its all-time high of $0.1939. 
The surge in BRETT follows an increase in Bitcoin (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/bitcoin/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">BTC</a>), the largest crypto asset by market cap, which rose by 3.1% over the past day to $69,471 on Monday. This came after Republican candidate <a href="https://crypto.news/trump-bitcoin-2024-keynote-bitcoin-reserve/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Donald Trump revealed plans</a> to make Bitcoin a national strategic asset if elected in November. 
Bitcoin’s 24-hour lows and highs were recorded at $67,320 and $69,842, respectively. 
The meme coin sector also saw minor gains, rising nearly 3.4% in the past 24 hours, with its market cap reaching $55.5 billion.

Bitcoin’s performance often influences the broader cryptocurrency market, including meme coins. When Bitcoin performs well, it typically boosts investor confidence and interest in altcoins, creating a positive feedback loop that drives up prices. 
Brett’s rally was also supported by the continued success of the Base blockchain ecosystem. Launched in 2023 by Coinbase, Base has accumulated over <a href="https://defillama.com/chain/Base" target="_blank" rel="">$1.727 billion</a> in defi assets, making it the 6th largest chain in the industry, surpassing popular networks like Cardano (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/cardano/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">ADA</a>), Avalanche (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/avalanche/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">AVAX</a>), and Polygon (<a href="https://crypto.news/price/polygon/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MATIC</a>). 
Additionally, Brett and other altcoins benefited from a rebound in the US stock market, indicating a risk-on sentiment among investors. The Dow Jones index rose by over 650 points, while the S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq 100 gained over 55 and 175 basis points, respectively. 
In the past 24 hours, Brett has shown a notable upward trend, as reflected in its price chart. The price climbed steadily from around $0.123 to approximately $0.140, indicating a strong bullish movement. 
From a technical perspective, Brett has formed a morning star pattern, a well-known reversal signal. Historically, the token has seen double-digit gains when this pattern appears. For instance, on July 12, the formation of this pattern led to a 40% increase in the token’s price. 
However, there is a possibility that this rebound could be a dead cat bounce, where an asset experiences a brief rise before resuming its bearish trend.
