Peanut the Squirrel perpetual futures market

Peanut was a pet squirrel whose seizure by New York State officials in 2024 became a viral story, and PNUT is the Solana memecoin named after him. The token rode that attention to quick listings on major exchanges. With no project behind it, price moves on sentiment and trading demand alone. PNUT perps let traders chase those swings with leverage, or short spikes, without dealing with Solana wallets or decentralised exchanges.

Memecoins like this tend to move in bursts tied to social media and wider Solana memecoin cycles. Perp volume is spread unusually widely, with BingX running both USDT and USDC margined contracts alongside Binance, WhiteBIT and OKX. That fragmentation means funding can differ between venues. Wide gaps hint at local crowding, and liquidation clusters often follow sharp reversals after a rally.

        What is Peanut the Squirrel (PNUT)?

        PNUT is a memecoin on Solana inspired by Peanut, a pet squirrel seized by New York State officials in 2024. The story spread widely online and the token gained a large following. It has no protocol or revenue, so its price reflects community interest and speculation.

        Why does PNUT funding vary between exchanges?

        PNUT perps trade on several venues with different user bases and margin currencies, including separate USDT and USDC contracts. Each venue sets funding from its own price and order book, so crowding on one exchange can push its rate well away from the others. Arbitrage traders narrow those gaps over time.

        What moves the PNUT price?

        Social media attention, news linked to the Peanut story and the wider Solana memecoin market drive most moves. Exchange listings and large influencer posts have caused sharp spikes before. Like most memecoins, it can lose much of its value quickly when attention fades.

        Is PNUT a Solana token?

        Yes. PNUT was created on Solana and trades on Solana decentralised exchanges as well as centralised venues. Its perps settle in stablecoins, so traders do not need to hold SOL. Moves in the broader Solana memecoin market, and in SOL itself, often influence it.

        What are PNUT perpetual futures?

        PNUT perpetual futures are derivatives contracts that track the price of PNUT and never expire. Instead of settling on a date, they use a funding rate to stay close to the spot price. You can go long or short with leverage without holding any PNUT.

        How does PNUT funding work?

        Funding is a payment between longs and shorts. When PNUT perps trade above the index price, funding is positive and longs pay shorts. When they trade below it, shorts pay longs. Most exchanges settle every 8 hours and some, including Hyperliquid, settle every hour.

        Should I long or short PNUT?

        Coinperps does not give trading advice. Funding, open interest, the long/short ratio and liquidations show how other traders are positioned, but crowded positioning can last longer than expected. Size positions so a liquidation would not hurt you.
