Initial Moo Deng Investment

The investment was made on September 10, when the trader traded the MOODENG/SOL pair on Raydium, a decentralized exchange (DEX) built on the Solana blockchain. The trader initially swapped 6 SOL, worth around $774 per the current price, for MOODENG tokens. 

The rapid appreciation of the investment, as reported by blockchain analysis platform Arkham, occurred over a short span, culminating in a $400,000 value by September 17. 

From Meme to Market Surge

Notably, MOODENG derives its name from a baby pygmy hippo at Thailand’s Khao Kheow Open Zoo. The hippo’s rise to internet fame has driven the coin’s popularity, as the creature became an online sensation through viral memes. 

The coin’s creators have capitalized on this trend, following in the footsteps of other successful meme coins launched on Solana. Notably, Solana has seen a surge in meme coin projects, with tokens like dogwifhat (WIF) gaining significant attention. Several investors have leveraged this growing trend to secure similar gains from other meme coins such as SILLY.

MOODENG’s Current Market Activity

At this writing, the MOODENG/SOL DEX pair trades at approximately $0.01657 on Raydium. Over the past 24 hours, the price of the MOODENG/SOL pair has risen by 77.51%, with a peak price of $0.02417 and a low of $0.01441.
