- PORK, a spin-off meme coin of PEPE, witnessed a big surge in price a few days after launch.
- PORK amasses large interest from the crypto space.
- PEPE failed to see the same growth during this period.
PEPE was a social media sensation in the crypto space earlier last year.
However, as time passed, the hype around PEPE dwindled, with other coins coming in to steal the limelight. However, conversations around PEPE have seen an uptick recently, owing to PORK.
A Big Jump
PORK, short for Pepe Fork, is a meme coin created by forking PEPE, courtesy of the developer Pauly0x.
It took only two days for the new token to achieve a market capitalization of $200 million after its launch.
At press time, it had surpassed Baby Doge Coin and became the eighth largest meme coin. PORK made its debut on Uniswap, paired with wrapped Ether (WETH) in a pool, and is now also tradable on various other exchanges.
