Solana meme coin Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT) is seeing huge whale accumulation thereby pushing the PNUT price up by 12% in the last 24 hours all the way to $0.70. PNUT meme coin has staged a strong recovery from the support of $0.50 and is eyeing a quick rally to $1 moving ahead, with a 35% surge in open interest. PNUT Price Rally After Strong Whale Accumulation Peanut The Squirrel (PNUT), a Solana-based meme coin, gained much traction during the US presidential elections last month hitting a $1 billion market cap within days of launch. However, the PNUT price has been moving sideways since then and recently dropped to retest the crucial support of $0.50, before bouncing back. On the other hand, the blockchain analytics platform Spot on Chain has identified significant accumulation activity in PNUT tokens. Whale wallet “FFDAa” recently withdrew 10 million PNUT tokens, valued at $6.1 million and representing approximately 1% of the total supply, from Binance. This transaction marks the whale’s first recorded acquisition of PNUT tokens. Following the withdrawal, nearly the entire amount was transferred to another wallet, “76yGJ.” With this transfer, wallet “76yGJ” is now ranked as the sixth-largest non-centralized exchange (non-CEX) holder of PNUT.
