What happened

$KMNO traded as low as $0.0394 over the past day, CoinGecko data shows. Its market value stands near $256 million. Total trading volume reached $12.4 million in 24 hours.

On Binance’s KMNO/USDT pair, the token held close to $0.040 through Saturday afternoon and early Sunday. It moved past $0.041 around 11 a.m. ET and reached $0.0424 near noon. After a short dip to $0.0419, it jumped to $0.0437 by 1:40 p.m. ET.

Jupiter’s price feed showed $0.0436, up 9.5%, within 0.3% of CoinGecko. CoinPaprika put the daily gain lower, at 8.3%. Over 30 days, $KMNO is up 3.3%, and it still trades 82% below its record high of $0.248 from December 2024.

Why it moved

The wider market rose a little on Sunday. Solana ($SOL) gained 1.7% in 24 hours to $101.82 on CoinGecko. Bitcoin ($BTC) added 0.7%, according to LiveCoinWatch.

$KMNO gained more than five times as much as $SOL. The cause of that extra gain, and of the late push, is not confirmed.

Who’s buying and selling

DexScreener counts 22,065 buys and 21,170 sells in 24 hours in the top KMNO/USDC pool on Orca. That pool holds about $2.09 million in liquidity.

Buyers lead in that pool, but only by about 4%. The gap is far smaller than the price move itself.

What to watch next

Deposits on Kamino’s lending market have barely moved. DefiLlama puts total value locked in Kamino Lend at $1.27 billion, up 1.0% in a day and down 3.1% in a week.

Across Solana, decentralized exchanges handled $1.42 billion in 24 hours, per DefiLlama. Readers can watch whether $KMNO holds above $0.042, where it traded around noon ET.

The buy and sell count in the Orca pool is another signal. It shows whether buyers stay ahead after a jump this fast.

Bottom line: Kamino Finance’s token outpaced a mild Sunday market rise, with a sharp push in the past hour and no confirmed cause.
