The $NUB story is entertaining, community-focused whimsy from @nubcat blue cat, an icon who debuted in 2012 and became a cult favorite by virtue of its offbeat, humorous comics. Since March 2024, $NUB has grown from a $197 million market capitalization to April 2024. Artists’ surprise hiatus from producing original comics dampened excitement; however, commencing again on June 30, 2025, with new posts on X of Nub’s strange adventures reignited community enthusiasm.
Solana’s low-cost, high-speed scalable network fuels $NUB’s popularity with risk-reward seeking traders looking for high-risk, high-reward transactions. With its latest $2.3 million trade volume, higher than recent weeklies of $1.27 million, we can expect hot market action even following an 85% drop from its ATH. Compared to its peers such as $WIF ($1.6 billion market cap) and $LMEOW ($6 million market cap), $NUB’s low market cap relative to its ATH has tremendous room to grow.
