Original author: Nancy, PANews

Last weekend, MEME coin Pnut became a hot topic among Degens, and its market value exceeded the $100 million mark in just one day. This craze was related to the news that the American Internet celebrity squirrel Peanut was euthanized after being arrested. The publics regret for Peanuts unfortunate experience was spreading across the Internet, especially with the fueling of public figures such as Musk, which turned this incident into an American political movement, arousing strong indignation and widespread condemnation across the Internet.

Pnuts market value peaked at over 100 million, but the deployer only earned $73,000

The detention and execution of the internet celebrity squirrel caused controversy and escalated into a weapon of public opinion in political struggle

The reason why the MEME coin Pnut has attracted so much attention is related to the detention and execution of the internet celebrity squirrel Peanut.

More than seven years ago, mechanical engineer Mark Longo witnessed a little squirrels mother die in a car accident by chance. Out of compassion, he took the lonely little squirrel home and gave it a warm name Peanut. During the care process, Mark Longo shared countless interesting interactive videos between Peanut and him on his social media account, which quickly attracted the attention of hundreds of thousands of fans, and Peanut became an animal Internet celebrity.

According to Mark Longo, as his love for animals grew deeper, he decided to devote himself to wildlife protection last year and founded a non-profit animal sanctuary PNuts Freedom Farm Animal Sanctuary, which currently has more than 300 animals, including horses, goats and alpacas.

However, a sudden incident broke the peaceful life of Mark Longo and Peanut. According to the Associated Press, on October 30, New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) officials broke into Mark Longos home without a search warrant and arrested Peanut. I was treated as if I were a drug dealer, and the officials acted as if they were looking for drugs and guns. Mark Longo revealed that the EPA received complaints from many people that peanuts are wild animals and they are worried that they can transmit diseases such as rabies.

To this end, Mark Longo had to launch a petition on social media, which quickly received positive responses and signatures from tens of thousands of fans. However, the development of the situation was not as everyone expected. Mark Longo then announced solemnly that Peanut had been euthanized by the relevant departments because it was identified as an illegally raised wild animal. DEC said that after Peanut bit the personnel involved in the investigation, the squirrel and another raccoon Fred were euthanized for rabies testing.

This news instantly caused an uproar on the entire Internet, with countless netizens expressing strong dissatisfaction and anger, and DEC was also caught in the whirlpool of public opinion.

New York City treated the squirrel Peanut as cruelly as it treated Harambe (a gorilla shot by an American zoo to save a boy). Memecoin project Dogecoin tweeted. Musk also joined the memorial and posted a number of tweets in support of Peanut and Mark Longo, The government should not be allowed to break into your house and kill your pets! This is terrible. Even if it is illegal to keep a squirrel as a pet (it shouldnt be illegal), why kill Peanut instead of putting it back in the forest?, The government is a ruthless killing machine, Trump will save the squirrels, rest in peace Peanut. For example, the American satirical news website Babylon Bee said, Radical squirrels wearing MAGA hats have started an uprising.

Musk supports Peanut

As the final battle of the US presidential election approaches, the Peanut controversy has evolved into a campaign to attack the Democratic Party and has even been used as a weapon of public opinion in the political struggle.
