Taiwanese music star’s memecoin sees wild price movements
According to data from GeckoTerminal on April 2, the token went live on March 30, trading at a high of 0.001474. However, the joy was short-lived, as it plunged by 74% to trade at 0.0003854 not long after. Presently, the token has slightly recovered some of its value and is now trading at $0.0007194.
The excitement was evident among investors after the address tied to the memecoin received over 200,000 SOL tokens after a single tweet. This single move helped the project raise a total value of $40 million, pushing the token market cap to $73 million. Despite the success recorded by the project, some investors are still not convinced about the outcome.
Market reaction and price speculation
An investor expressed disappointment at the project, stating that he would never be involved in any presale. The investor noted that his investment of $10,000 has dwindled to about $129. Crypto influencer borovik.sol also questioned the reason for the presale if investors are quick to sell off their holdings.
In his backstory about the token, the Taiwanese star said that Boba Oppa, the son of Machi Big Brother, embarked on a quest to make generational wealth and romantic conquests. This story has contributed to the token’s appeal among traders in the DeFi space. Solana memecoins have been experiencing an increase in fundraising and popularity. In the past month, there have been about 33 presales where $149 million has been raised in the sector. This act has highlighted the growing popularity and interest in this sector.
