What is Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT)?
Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT) is a memecoin on the Solana blockchain.
Peanut gained internet fame through heartwarming posts by his caretaker, Mark Longo, showcasing the squirrel performing tricks and donning tiny hats. On October 30, authorities seized Peanut, leading to his subsequent euthanasia, which sparked significant public outrage and led to the creation of a meme coin named PNUT in his memory.
Prominent figures, including Elon Musk and Congressman Nick Langworthy, publicly condemned the actions of the authorities. Musk's posts on X (formerly Twitter) amplified the issue, contributing to a surge in PNUT's popularity and attracting significant investment from the cryptocurrency community.
The price of PNUT is available and updated in real-time on Binance.
