Meme Coins Surge: Pepe and SPX6900 Post Double-Digit Gains…Why Bitcoin's Rebound Matters
The cryptocurrency market rebounded sharply on 2026-08-20, lifting meme coins along with it. As of 4:4 p.m. on Bithumb, SPX6900 was up 11.87% from the previous day, while Pepe gained 10.81%. Brett, Ponke, and Floki also posted strong gains. However, the key point is that these moves occurred amid a broader market rebound that also lifted Bitcoin and Ethereum, rather than being driven solely by positive developments specific to meme coins.
