Information about the token burning was confirmed by the analytical platform Etherscan.

The PEPE token price responded to this news with growth. It has risen 20% in the last 24 hours and is trading at $0.0000008, according to CoinGecko.

At the end of August, the price of meme coin plummeted by 20%. The reason for the fall was the actions of former team members who withdrew 16 trillion tokens worth about $15m from a multi-signature wallet and sold them on centralized exchanges.

After this, in September, just a couple of weeks after the theft of tokens from the multisig wallet, attackers hacked a Telegram channel dedicated to the hype meme coin. The channel administrator’s account fell into the hands of attackers who have nothing to do with PEPE.
