Elon Musk shared a video related to the non-player character (NPC) meme, causing a related meme coin to pump over 40% in the last 24 hours. The video, originally posted by Mario Nawfal, host of Mario Nawfal’s Roundtable, led to a sudden rally in the NPC meme coin.
Unintentional Impact on NPC Meme Coin
On Saturday, Elon Musk posted a video about the non-player character meme. This post unintentionally triggered a rally in Non-Playable Coin (NPC), a meme coin based on one of the internet’s most recognizable memes. The NPC coin, which exists on the Ethereum and Base networks, was created last year after Musk appreciated a post about the NPC meme.
Video’s Content and Spread
The video highlights the idea that many people act like non-player characters in real life, merely repeating what they are programmed to say. The video is an old edit from Joe Rogan’s podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience. Originally shared by Mario Nawfal, it was reshared multiple times on X, gaining widespread attention after Musk shared it.
NPC Coin’s Price Surge
Following Musk’s post, the price of NPC continued to rally, trading at $0.02463. It had a 24-hour low and high of $0.0165 and $0.02482, respectively. The trading volume also increased by 70% in the last 24 hours, indicating a rise in interest among
traders.
Historical Context and Caution
Meme coins often experience price jumps after Musk shares related content on X. This has happened with other cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin, Pepe Coin, and Shiba Inu. However, traders should exercise caution and do their due diligence before investing, as these pumps can lead to significant volatility.
