Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT) token , launched in early November 2024 on the Solana blockchain, is a meme-based cryptocurrency inspired by a viral social media sensation, Peanut the Squirrel. Combining charm and community-driven engagement, PNUT has rapidly climbed the ranks of the crypto world surpassing some of the major tokens and meme coins, ranking at #47 now by its market cap exceeding $2B in less than 2 weeks, and attracting investors and enthusiasts alike.
PNUT’s price journey has been nothing short of extraordinary. Here’s a timeline of its performance milestones:
As of November 14, 2024, PNUT is trading at $2.04, marking a 16.58% dip from its all-time high but retaining an impressive 24.14% daily gain.
Such rapid growth has placed PNUT among the top 5 trending tokens today and made it rank as this week's best performer among all cryptocurrencies, competing with the eldest cryptos to ever exist. When it goes down to the meme coins category, since its launch, it has gathered an incredibly huge market cap of over $2B making it surpass other notable names like POPCAT, MEW, NEIRO, MOG, and many more and closely behind FLOKI, threatening to surpass it soon if it keeps the same trend and investors interest high. Comparing its performance, the best match would be Act I: The AI Prophecy (ACT), though still far behind at rank #108 -double that of PNUT- despite the impressive performance it has managed to pull. Another similar performance to relate to would be that of Goatseus Maximus (GOAT), now still also behind at #83 with $907.50M in market cap.
As PNUT continues to trend among the best-performing tokens, its future looks promising . The token’s success story underscores the growing importance of community engagement and branding in the crypto space. However, potential investors should remain cautious, given the inherent volatility of meme-based tokens.
